The ratio of wooden bats to metal bats in the baseball coach’s bag is 2 to 1. if there are 20 wooden bats, how many metal bats are in the bag?

"Ratio of wooden bats to metal bats is 2 to 1" basically means "there are twice as many wooden bats (compared to metal ones)". So if we had 3 metal bats, then we'd have 2*3 = 6 wooden bats. If we had 7 metal bats, then we have 14 wooden ones (because 2*7 = 14). And so on. The basic rule is to multiply the amount of metal bats by 2 to get the amount of wooden ones.

We can go in reverse to divide the amount of wooden bats to get the amount of metal ones. So 20/2 = 10 is the amount of metal bats.

A more formal approach is to use the proportion below to solve for x

20/x = 2/1

20*1 = x*2

20 = 2x

2x = 20

2x/2 = 20/2

x = 10

and we get the same answer.

step-by-step explanation:

there is a formula i can give you:

it is r^2*n*sin(360/n) divided by 2 where r represents the "radius" and n is the number of sides.

plug them in:

(10sqrt(3))^2*6*sin(360/6) divided by 2

100*3*6*sin(60) divided by 2

900*sin(60)

900*sqrt(3)/2

450*sqrt(3)

approx is 779.4 cm^2

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
