A) 6 friends

B) 12 blue beads and 7 red beads

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the total number of beads

Blue beads + red beads = Total beads

72 + 42 = 114

Step 2: Find the ratio of blue beads to red beads

Blue/red = 72/42 = 12/7

Step 3: Find the total number of beads in each necklace

Add the ratio found in step 2

12 + 7 = 19 beads in each necklace

Step 4: Find the number of necklaces

Total beads/beads in each necklace

114/19 = 6

There will be 6 identical necklaces.

A) 6 friends will receive a necklace

B) Each friend will receive 12 blue beads and 7 red beads on each necklace.

an advantage of the standard deviation is that it increases as the dispersion of the data increases. e. the interquartile range is preferred when the data are not skewed or no have outliers. an advantage of the standard deviation is that it uses all the observations in its computation.

x = -4

step-by-step explanation:

- 20 - 4(x + 3) = 4x

=> -20 - 4x - 12 = 4x

=> - 32 -4x = 4x

=> -32 = 4x + 4x

=> - 32 = 8x

=> -32/8 = x

=> -4 = x
