Which of the following is the decimal equivalent of 9/20?

We are given the equation:

6x−5=10x+15

Step 1: Move all xxx-terms to one side

Subtract 6x from both sides:

−5=10x−6x+15

Step 2: Move constants to the other side

Subtract 15 from both sides:

−5−15=4x

−20=4x

Step 3: Solve for x

Divide both sides by 4:

x=−20/4 = −5

Choice A: 2 packs of Orange and 2 packs of Cream Soda

• Total drinks: 48 + 24 = 72 drinks
• Total cost: (2 * $15) + (2 * $5) = $30 + $10 = $40
• This choice not only meets the requirement of at least 60 drinks but also offers the best value in terms of cost per drink, making it the most cost-effective option.

Choice B: 3 packs of Root Beer

• Total drinks: 3 * 24 = 72 drinks
• Total cost: 3 * $14 = $42
• While this choice meets the requirement of at least 60 drinks, it's not the most cost-effective, as it costs $42for 72 drinks.

Choice C: 1 pack of Orange, 2 packs of Root Beer, and 1 pack of Cream Soda

• Total drinks: 24 + 48 + 12 = 84 drinks
• Total cost: $9 + (2 * $14) + $5 = $9 + $28 + $5 = $42
• This choice provides more than 60 drinks, but it's not the most cost-effective due to its higher cost of $42, same as choice B.

Choice D: 4 packs of Cream Soda

• Total drinks: 4 * 12 = 48 drinks
• Total cost: 4 * $5 = $20
• While this choice is the most cost effective, it falls short of providing the desired number of drinks.

A histogram will be appropriate to represent the time the students wake up every day of the week. The histogram is used to represent the frequency of the variable with another variable. In our case the vertical axis will represent the number of students (frequency) while the time of waking up on the horizontal axis.

we are asked to find the amount of milk in mL using the given information.

If we let x represent the amount of milk in mL, we set up a proportion with number of teaspoons on the numerator and amount in mL in the denominator.

A recipe of 3.4 teaspoons is equal to 17.0 mL.

The sides of a right-angled triangle are determined by the Pythagoras theorem. If we let the unknown side to x as in the figure below, then theory is applied as follows.  

The value of x is found as:

The value of the unknown leg side of a triangle is about 9.8 feet.

To simplify this expression, we follow the order of operations as follows:

First, we start with the numerator and solve it as follows

[2(6+3*9)]

We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 3 * 9 = 27. The expression becomes

[2(6+27)]

Then, we carry out the addition of 6+27=33. Then, the expression yields

[2(33)]=2*33=66

Now, we solve for denominator, which is 6/2=3.

Thus, the expression is reduced into

The expression reduces into 22.

notice that the question compares the cup of flour and the cup of milk. We can therefore set up our ratios as cup of floorcup of milk. If we let the x be the number of cups of milk needed, then

As a mixed fraction, 70/3 becomes 23 1/3, which represents the number of cups of milk needed to make a big batch of 5 cups.

we use the relation 1 L=1000 mL and organize our equation in such a way that L cancels as:

Thus, 0.65 L is 650 mL.

The scientist found that as water temperature increases, the fish population decreases. This means that the two variables move in opposite directions—when one increases, the other decreases.

This type of relationship is called a negative correlation.

To find the probability of an event, we use the following the formula

To find the probability of drawing the red ball, we need to find the total number of balls in the bag.

Total number of balls in the bag=6+3+5=14 balls

The probability of drawing a red ball from the bag is 3/14.
