Response:

The possible counts of students are 2, 4, or 5.

Detailed breakdown:

The total number of cookies is 20.

The total number of pizza slices is 40.

The ratio of pizza to cookies is 2:1.

Thus, for every 1 cookie, a student could have 2 slices of pizza.

Let x represent the number of students, and y the cookies per student.

Then, x × y = 20.

We can have the following combinations:

x = 1 and y = 20;

x = 2 and y = 10;

x = 4 and y = 5;

x = 5 and y = 4.

This indicates the possible counts of students are 2, 4, or 5.

4 students would be present

Each one would get 5 cookies

Each would also receive 10 slices of pizza

I hope this information is useful

AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

According to my cupcake recipe, it yields $12$ cupcakes and calls for $1\frac{1}{2}$ sticks of butter. I can only purchase whole sticks of butter.

Consequently, a single whole stick of butter will suffice to prepare $100$ cupcakes.

The number of rainbow smelt in Lake Michigan had an average rate of change of −19.76 per year between 1990 and 2000. The bloater
Zina [12379]

Answer:

x = 11.33 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for rainbow smelt is Y1 = −19.76x + 227

For bloater fish, the equation is Y2 = –92.57x + 1052

To find where these populations are equal:

–19.76x + 227 = –92.57x + 1052

Combine like terms:

-19.76x + 92.57x = 1052 - 227

72.81x = 825

Now divide by 72.81:

x = 825 / 72.81

Thus,

x = 11.33 years

Miguel buys a large bottle and a small bottle of juice. The amount of juice that the manufacturer puts in the large bottle is a
Zina [12379]
Pr(X>1540.2) = 0.0655. Step-by-step explanation: The expected value indicated for the large bottle is E(Large) = 1016, and for the small bottle, E(small) = 510. This leads to an expected total E(total) = 1016 + 510 = 1526. The new mean calculated is thus 1526. To find the standard deviation, we derive the variance of each bottle. The variance for the large bottle is v(large) = 8^2 = 64, while for the small bottle it's v(small) = 5^2 = 25. Hence, the total variance is v(total) = 64+25 = 89, resulting in a new standard deviation sd(new) = sqrt(89) = 9.434. To find the probability, we compute using the new mean and standard deviation. The z score is derived as z = (x - mean)/sd = (1540.2 - 1526)/9.434 = 1.505. Looking up this z score gives P(z<1.51) = 0.9345. Consequently, for x > 1540.2, we have P(z > 1.51) = 1 - 0.9345 = 0.0655.

zzz [12365]

Response:

The answer is 1/13

To explain step-by-step:

We are notinformed about the first (01) twelve (12) cards that are shown; hence, the probability that the thirteenth (13) card dealt is a King is equivalent to the probability of the first card being a King, or specifically any designated card dealt being a King, equating to:

=4/52

AnnZ [12381]
The maximum number of plates Lenin can create is 4, with each plate containing 3 pieces of chicken and 4 rolls. Step-by-step explanation: Lenin is preparing dinner plates with 12 pieces of chicken and 16 rolls. To ensure all plates are identical without any leftover food, the greatest number of plates he can prepare is represented by the G.C.D.(12,16) = 4. Each plate will therefore include 3 pieces of chicken and 4 rolls.
