Both of your answers are wrong.
To answer the first question, we need to find the number of bags of candy that are not cherry flavored. We know that out of 54 bags, 12 were cherry flavored. Therefore, the number of bags that are not cherry flavored is:
Total bags of candy - Cherry flavored bags = 54 - 12 = 42.
Now, we need to find out how many bags out of 36 can be expected to be sold that are not cherry flavored. Since the proportion of cherry flavored bags sold remains constant, we can use the concept of ratios to calculate the number of non-cherry flavored bags expected to be sold.
Let's set up the ratio:
Non-Cherry flavored bags sold / Total bags sold = Non-Cherry flavored bags available / Total bags available.
Using this ratio, we can solve for the unknown number of non-cherry flavored bags sold out of 36.
(Non-Cherry flavored bags sold) / 54 = (42) / 54.
Cross-multiplying, we get:
Non-Cherry flavored bags sold = (42 * 36) / 54 = 28.
Therefore, we can expect 28 bags of candy that are not cherry flavored to be sold out of 36.
For the second question, Duncan has the choice between a spherical or cubical aquarium and keeping goldfish or fantails. Let's look at the given options:
SG, CG, SF, CF
- SG: Spherical aquarium + Goldfish
- CG: Cubical aquarium + Goldfish
- SF: Spherical aquarium + Fantails
- CF: Cubical aquarium + Fantails
Among these options, only the combination SG, SF, CF includes different combinations of aquariums and fish. So, the correct answer is: SG, SF, CF.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.
