A group of experimenters has 60 wasps in a large container and needs to assign 15 to each of four groups labeled A, B, C, and D for an experiment. They can capture the wasps one at a time when the wasps enter a side chamber in the container that is baited with food. Which of the following methods is most likely to result in four comparable groups of 15 wasps each? (4 points) a- Place each wasp in its own numbered container (numbered from 1−60) in the order that it was caught. Write the numbers from 1 to 60 on slips of paper, put the slips in a jar, and mix them well. Pick 15 numbers out of the jar. Assign the wasps in the containers with those numbers to group A. Pick 15 more numbers for group B. Pick 15 more numbers for group C. Assign the remaining 15 wasps to group D. b- Label the first 15 wasps caught as group A, the second 15 caught as group B, the third 15 caught as group C, and the fourth 15 caught as group D. c- Write the letters A, B, C, and D on separate slips of paper. Pick one of the slips of paper randomly and assign the first 15 wasps caught to that group. Pick another slip and assign the next 15 wasps caught to that group. Pick another slip and assign the next 15 wasps caught to that group. Assign the remaining wasps to the remaining group. d- When each wasp is caught, roll a die. If the die shows an even number, the wasp is labeled A. If the die shows an odd number, the wasp is labeled B. When 15 wasps have been labeled A and 15 have been labeled B, split the remaining 30 wasps into groups C and D. e- When each wasp is caught, roll a die. If the die shows a 1 or 2, the wasp is labeled A. If the die shows a 3 or 4, the wasp is labeled B. If the die shows a 5 or 6, the wasp is labeled C. Repeat this process for 45 wasps. Assign the remaining 15 wasps to group D.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is:

a-

Place each wasp in its own numbered container (numbered from 160) in the order that it was caught. Write the numbers from 1 to 60 on slips of paper, put the slips in a jar, and mix them well. Pick 15 numbers out of the jar. Assign the wasps in the containers with those numbers to group A. Pick 15 more numbers for group B. Pick 15 more numbers for group C. Assign the remaining 15 wasps to group D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each other answer is affected by the order in which wasps were caught, which may be due to a confounding variable.

What is the value of x?
-7.5 (x-3)=3.75

Answers

Answer:

x= 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-7.5 (x-3) = 3.75

(divide both sides of the equation by -7.5)

x-3 = -0.5

(move the constant to the righthand side and change the sign)

x = -0.5+3

(calculate the sum)

x = 2.5

I went to Half Priced Books and purchased 15 books. I paid $2 each for some and $3 each for the rest of the books. How many $2 books did I buy if I spent $34?

Answers

Answer:

Thus the number of books at $2 is 9 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of the book purchased = 15 books

Total amount spend to buy the books = $34

The prices of books are $2 and $3.

Let the number of books purchased at price  $2 = x

Let the number of books purchased at price  $3 = y

Now we have to find the number of books that is bought at $2.

Below are the equations.

x + y = 15

2x + 3y = 34

Now solve for the x,  

x + y = 15

y = 15 – x

Now insert it in the 2x + 3y = 34

2x + 3(15-x) = 34

2x + 45 – 3x = 34

-x = 34 – 45

x = 9

Thus the number of books at $2 is 9 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

i saw it on quizlet

The set of side length that represents a triangle with 3 lines of reflectional symmetry is 5,5,5

Reflectional symmetry is a line that divides a triangle into halves. The halves the triangle are divided into are a reflection of each other.

A triangle is a shape that has three sides with three angles which sum up to 180 degrees.

Types of triangles :

Equilateral triangle : the three sides of the triangle have an equal length. It has three lines of reflectional symmetry  Right-angled triangle :  the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the square of the other two sides Scalene triangle : all the three sides of the triangle have different lengths. It has no line of reflectional symmetry. Isosceles triangle ; it has two sides that have an equal length. It has one line of reflectional symmetry

Solve for n.

A.n=1
B.n=8
C.n=11
D.n=16

Answers

Simplify 6 - 8 to -2

n + 1 = 4 * -2

Simplify 4 * - 2 to -8

n + 1 = -8

Subtract 1 from both sides

n = -8 - 1

Simplify -8 - 1 to -9

n = -9

Check answer:

n + 1 = 4(6 - 8)

Let n = -9

-9 + 1 = 4 * (6 - 8)

Simplify 6 - 8 to -2

-9 + 1 = 4 * -2

Simplify 4 * -2 to -8

-9 + 1 = 8

n = 8

Answer:

n=9

Step-by-step explanation:

n+1=4(6-8)

We move all terms to the left:

n+1-(4(6-8))=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

n+1-(4(-2))=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

n+9=0

We move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right

n=9

The answer should be n=9

Endpoints of segment MN have coordinates (0, 0), (5, 1). The endpoints of segment AB have coordinates (1 1/22 , 2 1/4 ) and (−2 1/4 , k). What value of k makes these segments perpendicular?

Answers

Answer: [tex]k=18\dfrac{8}{11}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line passing through two points, then

[tex]Slope=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Endpoints of segment MN have coordinates (0, 0) and (5, 1).

Slope of MN [tex]=\dfrac{1-0}{5-0}=\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]

The endpoints of segment AB have coordinates [tex]\left(1\dfrac{1}{22} , 2\dfrac{1}{4}\right)[/tex] and  [tex]\left(-2\dfrac{1}{4} , k\right)[/tex].

[tex]A=\left(1\dfrac{1}{22} , 2\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=\left(\dfrac{23}{22} ,\dfrac{9}{4}\right)[/tex]

[tex]B=\left(-2\dfrac{1}{4} , k\right)=\left(-\dfrac{9}{4} , k\right)[/tex].

Slope of AB [tex]=\dfrac{k-\frac{9}{4}}{-\frac{9}{4}-\dfrac{23}{22}}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{\frac{4k-9}{4}}{\frac{-99-46}{44}}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{4k-9}{4}\times \dfrac{44}{-145}[/tex]

[tex]=4k-9\times \dfrac{11}{-145}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{44k-99}{-145}[/tex]

Product of slopes of two perpendicular segments is -1.

Slope of MN × Slope of AB = -1

[tex]\dfrac{1}{5}\times \dfrac{44k-99}{-145}=-1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{44k-99}{-725}=-1[/tex]

[tex]44k-99=725[/tex]

[tex]44k=725+99[/tex]

[tex]k=\dfrac{824}{44}[/tex]

[tex]k=\dfrac{206}{11}[/tex]

[tex]k=18\dfrac{8}{11}[/tex]

Therefore, the value of k is [tex]k=18\dfrac{8}{11}[/tex].

Answer:

k=21

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of MN which is 1/5, (use the slope formula.)

Use the slope formula for AB using k as y_2

Substitute and you get k=21

21-2.25/-2.25-1.5=-5

The lines are perpendicular because the slopes are the negative reciprocal of one another.

Mr.V's trail mix uses 1/2cup of peanuts, 2 1/4 cups raisins, and he uses 2 times more sunflower seeds than raisins.How many total cups of trail mix can mix can Mr.V make

Answers

Answer:

The total number of cups is 9 1/2 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the total cups of trail mix that Mr V can make.

From the question, we are told that he used 1/2 cups of peanuts, 2 1/4 cups of raisins and 2 times more sunflower seeds than raisins.

So basically, we need to find the number of cups of sunflower seeds used.

The information we have here is that he used 2 times more of raisins;

Thus, the number of cups of sunflower would be 2 * 2 1/4 = 2 * 9/4 = 9/2. But practically is 9/2 , two times more than 2 1/4? NO!

What we should do here is to add 9/2 to 2 1/4. In that case, the difference between the two will be 2 times the cups of raisins;

So 9/2 + 9/4 = (18 + 9)/4 = 27/4

So the total number of cups of trail mix that can be made will be;

1/2 + 27/4 + 9/4 = (2 + 27 + 9)/4 = 38/4 = 19/2 = 9 1/2 cups

What is the value of y?

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is 180 degrees, the top part is 88.

180 - 88 = 92

92/2 = 46.

Answer: 44°

Explanation:-

Method 1:-

We know that the sum of the measurements of two interior angles is equal to the measurement of the exterior angle.

i.e.,

y + y = 88°

→ 2y = 88°

→ y = 88°/2

→ y = 44° (D)

Method 2:-

The adjacent angel of the angle of measurement 88° is 92°.

We know,

Sum of interior angles of a triangle = 180°

According to the Question:-

y + y + 92° = 180°

→ 2y = 180° - 92°

→ 2y = 88°

→ y = 44° (D)
