Maria makes soup with 24 total ounces of tomatoes [yellow and red]. there are 3 times as many yellow tomatoes as there are red. how many ounces of each tomato does she have.

ANS:18 ounces of yellow tomatoes and 6 ounces of red tomatoes.

Let the ounces of yellow tomatoes be x

and the ounces of red tomatoes be y.

Now, it is said that there are 24 total ounces of tomatoes of both yellow and red kinds.

So,we get one equation,

x+y=24 (1)

Now,it is said that there are 3 times as many yellow tomatoes as there are red.

So, we get another equation as,

x=3y (2)

Now, substituting the value of x from (2) in (1),we get,

3y+y=24

or,4y=24

or,y=6

Then,from (2) we get,

x=3*6=18

ANSWER:18 ounces of yellow tomatoes and 6 ounces of red tomatoes.

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old. 

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

                                          probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497
