You have towels of three sizes. The length of the first is 3 /4 m, which makes up 3/ 5 of the length of the second. The length of the third towel is 5 /12 of the sum of the lengths of the first two. What part of the third towel is the second?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

In ratio units, the relative lengths of the first, second, and third towels are ...

... 1 : 3/5 : (5/12)·(1 +3/5)

... = 1 : 3/5 : 2/3

Then the fraction the second towel is of the third towel is ...

... (3/5)/(2/3) = (3/5)·(3/2) = 9/10

Answer 2

answer:

the answer is 2/3

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation 4x2 = 64?

x = −16 and x = 16
x = −8 and x = 8
x = −4 and x = 4
x = −2 and x = 2

Answers

Greetings!

Answer:

x = −4 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x² = 64

Lets get x² on its own. To do this we divide each sides by 4:

x² = 16

Now to get just x, we need to square root this answer:

√x² = √16

x = √16

x = 4

But this can be ±4 as it -4 and 4 squared both give 16.

So your answer is x = −4 and x = 4

Answers

Answer:

c ∈ {-7, -3, 2, 5}

Step-by-step explanation:

"Illegal" values are those values that make the expression undefined—that is, they make the denominator zero.

The denominator of the product factors as (c+7)(c-2)(c-5)(c+3), so the values of c that will make this product zero are ones that make the factors zero:

In the figure, BCND is a rectangle and CGNR is a rhombus. The area of BCND is 90 and BC = 10. What is 3GR?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]3GR=27[/tex]


Step-by-step explanation:

Since area of rectangle BCND is given as 90 and one of its side is 10, the other side MUST be 9.

[tex]CN*BC=90\\CN*10=90\\CN=9[/tex]


In Rhombus CGNR, CN and GR are congruent (property of Rhombus). Hence GR = 9 as well.

Thus 3GR = 3(9) = 27

adult tickets to the fall play cost $8 and student tickets cost $4. The drama calss sold 20 more adult tickets than student tickets to the fall play. If the class collected $880 from ticket sales, how many adult tickets were sold?

Answers

Answer:

80 adult tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

If you subtract the extra 20 adult tickets from ticket numbers and revenue, you get ...

equal numbers of $4 and $8 tickets were sold for a total of $720 collected

Since that is some number of ticket pairs worth $12 per pair, there must have been ...

$720/12 = 60 pairs of $4 and $8 tickets

The number of adult tickets is 20 more than this, so is

60 + 20 = 80 . . . . adult tickets sold

_____

If you feel better with an equation, rather than numerical reasoning, you can let n represent the number of adult tickets. Then n-20 is the number of student tickets and total revenue is ...

8n +4(n-20) = 880

12n -80 = 880 . . . . . simplify

12n = 960 . . . . . . . . . add 80

n = 80 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 12

_____

Comment on the different solutions

Using n for the number of adult tickets, we effectively chose a scenario where we added 20 student tickets to bring the total to $960 for some number of $12 pairs of tickets. That number is 80, the number of adult tickets.

In the "word solution" given at first, we effectively solved for the number of student tickets, then added 20 to get the number of adult tickets. The corresponding equation would be ...

4s +8(s+20) = 880 . . . s = number of student tickets sold

12s = 720 . . . . . . . . . subtract 160, the price of the 20 extra adult tickets

Answer: 6x - 18 (choice C)

Angle TSR is the same as angle RST. The order of the letters doesn't matter as long as the middle letter is the same (known as the vertex point).

Segment SQ bisects angle RST, so that means the two smaller pieces (angle TSQ and angle RSQ) are exactly half in measure compared to angle RST. Put another way, angle RST is twice that of angle RSQ

So,

angle RST = 2*(angle RSQ)

angle RST = 2*(3x - 9)

angle RST = 2*(3x) + 2*(-9)

angle RST = 6x - 18

B.2.0 fluid ounces

C.2.5 fluid ounces

D.2.3 fluid ounces

Answers

Answer:

Option B is correct.

2.0 fluid ounces of milk are required to provide 67.5 milligrams of calcium

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion states that the two ratios or fractions are equal.

As per the given statement: Drinking 7 fluid ounces of milk provides 236.25 milligrams of calcium.

Let x be the fluid ounce of milk.

then, by using proportion method we have;

[tex]\frac{7}{236.25} = \frac{x}{67.5}[/tex]                       ......[1]

Cross multiply states that an equation of fractions when each side consists of a fraction with a single denominator by multiplying the numerator of each side by the denominator of the other side and then, equating the two products obtained.

Apply cross multiply in [1];

[tex]7 \times 67.5 = 236.25 \times x[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]472.5 = 236.25x[/tex]

Divide 236.25 we get;

[tex]x = \frac{472.5}{236.25}[/tex]

Simplify:

x = 2.0

therefore, 2.0 fluid ounces of milk are required to provide 67.5 milligrams of calcium

Joshua solved this problem. He says the answer is 489 yards. Joshua had 359 yards of his fishing line in the water. Then he reeled in 113 yards of his line from the water. How much of Joshua’s fishing line was still in the water? Solve the problem. Is Joshua’s answer reasonable?

Answers

Joshua now has 359-113 or 246 yards still in the water.
Joshua’s answer is wrong because he did not add any more fishing line to the water.

The correct answer to the subtraction problem is 246 yards of Joshua's fishing line remaining in the water after reeling in 113 yards out of 359 yards. Joshua's initial answer of 489 yards is incorrect.

The student is asking for verification of Joshua’s solution to a subtraction problem that involves determining how much fishing line remains in the water after some has been reeled in. Joshua initially had 359 yards of line in the water and reeled in 113 yards. To find the remaining length of the line in the water, we subtract the length of the line reeled in from the initial length.

Step-by-Step Explanation

Start with the initial length of the fishing line in the water: 359 yards.

Subtract the length of the line that was reeled in: 113 yards.

Perform the subtraction: 359 yards - 113 yards = 246 yards.

So, the length of the fishing line that remained in the water was 246 yards.

Joshua’s answer of 489 yards is not reasonable because it does not reflect the correct subtraction (359 - 113 = 246). The correct answer is 246 yards still in the water.
