The ratio of a to b is 3 to 1, and the ratio of b to c is 1 to 5. What is the value of 2a+3b/ 4b+3c?
A. 3/16
B. 9/19
C. 1/2
D. 5/7
E. 18/19

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Expressing the ratios as fractions, that is

[tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{1}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

a = 3b

[tex]\frac{b}{c}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

c = 5b

------------------------------------------

Given

[tex]\frac{2a+3b}{4b+3c}[/tex] , substitute values from above for a and c

= [tex]\frac{2(3b)+3b}{4b+3(5b)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{6b+3b}{4b+15b}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{9b}{19b}[/tex] ← cancel b on numerator/ denominator

= [tex]\frac{9}{19}[/tex] → B

Show that 5/8÷7/12=1 1/14

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation part for more details.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Solve [tex]7y - 6= 2y + 8[/tex]

Send all components contain [tex]y[/tex] to the left, the other components to the right:

<=> [tex]7y - 6 = 2y + 8[/tex]

(sign of  [tex]2y[/tex] is changed from negative to positive, sign of [tex]6[/tex] is changed from negative to positive)

<=> [tex]5y = 14[/tex]

Divide both sides of equation by [tex]5[/tex]:

<=> [tex]y = \frac{14}{5}[/tex]

2. Show that  [tex]\frac{7}{8} - \frac{5}{6} =\frac{1}{24}[/tex]

First, we prove that [tex]24[/tex] is least common multiple(LCM) of the denominators of [tex]2[/tex] components on the left side ([tex]8[/tex] and [tex]6[/tex]).

[tex]8 = 2^{3}[/tex]

6 = [tex]2[/tex] x [tex]3[/tex]

=> LCM = [tex]2^{3}[/tex] x [tex]3[/tex] = [tex]8[/tex] x [tex]3[/tex] = [tex]24[/tex]

Multiply the first component [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex] by a factor which is equal to the quotient of LCM and denominator: [tex]\frac{24}{8} = 3[/tex]

=> [tex]\frac{7}{8} = \frac{7*3}{8*3} = \frac{21}{24}[/tex]

Multiply the second component [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] by a factor which is equal to the quotient of LCM and denominator: [tex]\frac{24}{6} = 4[/tex]

=>[tex]\frac{5}{6} = \frac{5*4}{6*4} = \frac{20}{24}[/tex]

=>[tex]\frac{7}{8} -\frac{5}{6} = \frac{21}{24} - \frac{20}{24} = \frac{1}{24}[/tex]

3. Show that [tex]\frac{5}{8} / \frac{7}{12} = \frac{11}{14}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{8} / \frac{7}{12} =[/tex] [tex]\frac{5}{8} * \frac{12}{7} =[/tex] [tex]\frac{60}{56} =\frac{60/4}{56/4} = \frac{15}{14} = 1\frac{1}{14}[/tex]

From this prime factorization tree, we want to find a group of 3. The same number that appears 3 times.

We see that there are 3 2's. They are bolded above. Since there is a group of 3, we can pull the 2 out of the cubed root, as we are left with a 3 inside (underlined above).

What is the perimeter of the triangle?

Answers

Count the boxes and add the sides and the bottom and that’s the perimeter

Answer:

36 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The short leg is 9 units and the long one is 12 units.

Use pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse, a² + b² = c²

Plug in the numbers: 9² + 12² = c²

81 + 144 = c²

225 = c²

√225 = c

15 = c

Find perimeter by adding all 3 sides: 9 + 12 + 15 = 36 units.

D. 5 tickets cost $12 and 65 tickets cost $10
WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST WHEN I CAN!!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

52 tickets cost $10 and 18 tickets cost $12

Step-by-step explanation:

10x+12y=804. (1)

x+y=70. (2)

From (2)

x=70-y

Substitute x=70-y into (1)

10x+12y=804

10(70-y)+12y=804

700-10y+12y=804

700+2y=804

2y=804-700

2y=104

y=104/2

y=52

Recall

x+y=70

x+52=70

x=70-52

x=18

52 tickets cost $10 and 18 tickets cost $12

By solving a system of equations we will see that the correct option is A.

How to write and solve a system of equations?

First, let's define the variables:

x = number of $10 tickets sold.y = number of $12 tickets sold.

First, we know that 70 tickets were sold, so:

x + y = 70

And we know that they reached $804, then we have:

x*$10 + y*$12 = $804

Then our system is:

x + y = 70

x*$10 + y*$12 = $804

To solve this, we first need to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, I will isolate x on the first equation:

x = 70 - y

Now we can replace that in the other equation to get:

(70 - y)*$10 + y*$12 = $804

$700 - y*$10 + y*$12 = $804

$700 + y*$2 = $804

y*$2 = $804 - $700 = $104

y = $104/$2 = 52

So, 52 $12 tickets were sold, then the other 18 tickets were $12, so the correct option is A.

Answers

Answer:

the water level drop per hour is [tex]\frac{1}{26}\,\,\frac{in}{h} \approx 0.03846\,\,\frac{in}{h}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that in between 11 PM and 8:45 AM on the following day, there is a change in time equal to 9 hours and 45 minutes = 9.75 hours.

If the water level of the pool dropped by 3/8 of an inch, and the rate was constant, then the rate of level drop per hour is:

Find the 5th term

To find the 5th term, we simply substitute 5 for n in the above expression.

This gives

Cam bounces a ball 2.528 feet in front of his feet. The path of the ball from the time it hits the ground until it lands on the floor is represented by
f(x)= -(x-7)^2+20

Assuming that Cam's feet located at the origin, (0,0), what is the maximum height of the ball in (feet)?​

Answers

Answer:

20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the term -(x-7)^2 is negative, the largest height that the ball can reach is when this term is 0. 0+20=20, meaning that the highest the ball can go is 20 feet. Hope this helps!

Answer:  20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of a quadratic equation is: y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) is the vertex

h is the axis of symmetry (time at which maximum height is reached)

k is the maximum height

Given: y = -(x - 7)² + 20

--> h = 7, k = 20

therefore, the maximum height of the ball is 20

In the triangles, TR= GE and SR=FE. If GF= 3.2 ft, which is a possible measure of TS?

Answer:

3.2ft

Step-by-step Explanation:

From the given information of the question, we can draft out the diagram of the triangles being depicted here. See attached picture showing triangles RST and EFG.

Since we are told that TR= GE, and SR = FE, it means both triangles are isosceles triangle a having 2 equal sides, and triangles RST and EFG are similar.

Also, given that the measure of the 3rd side (GF) of triangle EFG is 3.2ft, therefore, TS = 3.2ft

Answers

Answer: 2b = 3g

Step-by-step explanation:

This is quite basic to solve, below is a Step by step explanation:

from the given question we have that;

A fire hydrant with a blue cap provides water at a rate of 1,500 gallons per minute.

       i.e  b = 1500 gallons per minute

A fire hydrant with a green cap provides water at a rate of 1,000 gallons per minute.

          g = 1000 gallons per minute.

Our questions tells us to write the equation which  relates the flow of water from the blue hydrant, b, to the flow from the green hydrant, g.

ANS:

Since flow from blue  hydrant b = 1500 gallons per minute, we have that

b = 3 * 500

b = 3 * 1000/2 g

b = 3/2 g

equation  gives 2b = 2g

b = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) a = [tex]\frac{5x^2}{2}[/tex]

Putting x = 10

a = 5(10)²/2

a = 5(100)/2

a = 250

2) b = [tex]\frac{2x^2(x-5)}{10x}[/tex]

Putting x = 10

b = 2(10)²(10-5) / 10(10)

b = 2(100)(5) / 100

b = 1000 / 100

b = 10
