Answer 1

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

How many total fish is Dr. Howser planning on buying?

BOTH tanks hold 120 gallons

Tank A :

3 every 10 --> 120/10 ---> 12

So multiply 3 and 12 ----> 36

36 fishes in tank A

Tank B:

6 every 40 -----> 120/40 ----> 3

So multiply 6 by 3 ----> 18

18 fishes are held in tank B

Add them together:

18 + 36 ----> 54

ANSWER : Dr. Howser is planing on purchesing 54  fish all together.

What will be the ratio of the number of small fish he buys to the number of large fish that he buys

Small --->  36 fish

Large ---> 18 fish  

Small : Large  ----> 36:18

ANSWER: 36:18

if you need it siplified it would be 2:1

A volleyball team played five games. In those games, the team won by 7 points, lost by 3, lost by 2, won by 4, and won by 9. What was the total amount of points from all five games

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "3"

Step-by-step explanation:

In essence, it represents the sum of all comments divided by the number of responses.

It implies scoring in the five games corresponds to a total of five results.

Scores :

7 points implies+ 7 

lost by 3 implies- 3 

lost by 2 implies - 2

won by 4 implies + 4 

won by 9 implies + 9 

Sum of all scores [tex]= 7 - 3 - 2 + 4 + 9 = 15[/tex]therefore

Its team has a total of 5 games[tex]= 5[/tex]

Measurement in scores in five games thus = sum of all scores/sum with the team played games [tex]=\frac{15}{5}= 3[/tex]
