A fruit salad consists of blueberries,raspberries,grapes,and cherries. The fruit salad has a total of 280 pieces of fruit. There are twice as many raspberries as blueberries, three times as many grapes as cherries, and four times as many cherries as raspberries. How many cherries are there in the fruit salad?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Answer=64 cherries

raspberries:blueberries:grapes:cherries
a ratio where b=blueberries can be made....
2b:b:3(4(2b)):4(2b)
2b:b:24b:8b
substitute b for 1
raspberries:blueberries:grapes:cherries
2:1:24:8

2+1+24+8=35
280/35=8
8*2=16 raspberries
8*1=8blueberries
8*24=192grapes
8*8=64cherries

Which are the center and radius of the circle with equation (x + 5)2 + (y - 4)2 = 9?

Answers

Answer:

Center (-5,4) radius 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a circle is

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

where the center is (h,k) and r is the radius

so h=-5 in this case and k is 4

r^2=9 so r=3

Johan buys three flats of flowers he plants 2/5 of the flowers and then divides the remaining flowers amongst five friends. What fraction of the flat of flowers does each of Johahn's friends get?

Answers

Answer:

Each friend will get (9)/(25) of the flat of flowers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Johan buys 3 flats of flowers.

He plants (2)/(5)th of the flowers, then the remaining flowers = 3 - (2)/(5)* 3

= (9)/(5)

Now he divides the remaining flowers among 5 friends.

So each friend gets the fraction of flowers = \frac{\text{Remaining flowers}}{\text{Number of friends}}

= ((9)/(5) )/(5)

= (9)/(25)

Therefore, each of Johan's friend will get (9)/(25) of the flat of flowers.
We have to calculate the remaining, or the supplanted flower fraction.
Remaining =1-2/5=(5-2)/5=3/5.

Now, we calculate the fraction of the flat of flowers get by each friend.

Fraction get by each friend=remaining/number of friends
Fraction get by each friend=(3/5)/5=3/25

Answer: 3/25 flat of flowers are got by each friend

Selma hypothesizes that the mass of a sample of water will not change if it is frozen. She conducts an experiment to test her hypothesis. Her experimental steps are as follows:1. Fill a beaker with 500 mL of water.
2.
3. Place the beaker in the freezer.
4. After the water freezes, place the beaker on the balance and measure its mass.

Which of the following steps is missing from Selma's experiment?

Place the beaker on the balance and measure its mass.
Run the water through a filter to make sure there are no impurities in it.
Set a timer for 2 hours.
Use a thermometer to measure the water's temperature.

Answers

place a beaker on a balance and measure the mass

Answer:

place the beaker on the balance and measure its mass.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to see if the mass of the water changed, Selma first needs to find out what the mass of the liquid water is in order to compare it to the mass of the frozen water.
