The amount of money each of Mr Mokwebo 's two sons; Tokelo and Refentse will get is R116 and R95 respectively.

<h3>How to write and solve equation:</h3>

  • Amount needed to buy chocolate = R253
  • Tokelo's money = x
  • Refentse's money = x - 21

Total amount needed = Tokelo's money + Refentse's money

253 = x + (x - 21)

253 = x + x - 21

253 = 2x - 21

253 - 21 = 2x

232 = 2x

divide both sides by 2

x = 232/2

x = 116

Therefore,

Tokelo's money = x = R116

Refentse's money = x - 21

= 116 - 21

= R95

The ratio of dogs to cats at a local animal shelter is 13/25. Which statement must be true?
Ivan

<em>Option:</em>

<em>a. for every 13 dogs, there are 25 cats. </em>

<em>b. there are twice as many cats as dogs at the shelter. </em>

<em>c. the shelter has more dogs than cats. </em>

<em>d. there are 25 animals in the shelter.</em>

Answer:

a. for every 13 dogs, there are 25 cats.

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent Dogs with D and Cats with C;

So;

\frac{D}{C} = \frac{13}{25}

By comparison:

D=13

C = 25

This implies that:

For every 13 D, there are 25 C

Hence: Option A is true

Answer:

Willhem

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

Step 1 : Add 32g and 8g.

Step 2: Subtract 10 from 40.

Step 3: Divide both sides by 30, find the value of g.

Seventy percent of the engines manufactured on an assembly line are defective. Suppose engines are randomly selected one at a ti
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of defective = 0.7

P(non-defective) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

Let X be the trial at which we get the first non-defective

Then X follows a geometric distribution.

X ~ Geo (0.3)

What has happened already will not affect the probability.

P(atleast 2 more) = P(X > 1)

= 1 - P(X = 1)

= 1 - (0.3)

= 0.7
