3)The original rational number was 17/12.
4)The age of Ruby and Reshma are 20 and 28 years respectively.
Explanation:
3)Let the numerator be x.
So denominator will be (x - 5)
If we add 5 to numberator then it will be (x + 5)
New number is (x + 5)/(x - 5)=11/6
Solve for X by cross multiplying
6(x + 5)=11(x - 5)
6x + 30=11x - 55
5x=85
x=17
So original rational number was 17/12.
4)The ages of Ruby and Reshma are in the ratio 5:7
So, let the present ages of Ruby and Reshma be 5x and 7x respectively.
Also, it is given that four years from now the ratio of their ages will be 3:4
So, the equation - 5x + 4 / 7x + 3 = 3/4
⇒4(5x+4)=3(7x+4)
⇒20x+16=21x+12
⇒21x−20x=16−12
⇒x=4
⇒5x=20 and 7x=28
The age of Ruby and Reshma are 20 and 28 years respectively.
2 gallons * $2.58 per gallon = $5.16 expenses (total spent)
2 gallons * 16 cups = 32 total servings
32 cups * $0.75 per cup = $24 gross revenue (total income)
$24 - $5.16 = $19.84 net revenue (profit)
Answer:
P = (12/27)*(11/26) = 0.188
Step-by-step explanation:
Si todos tienen la misma probabilidad de estar en cargo de presidente y vicepresidente, entonces:
La probabilidad de que una mujer sea presidente, es igual al cociente entre el número de mujeres y el número total de personas:
p = 12/27
Ahora queremos calcular lo mismo para vicepresidente, y el cálculo es exactamente igual, con la diferencia de que en esta situación, ya hay una mujer en el cargo de presidente, entonces hay 11 mujeres que pueden ser vicepresidente, y un total de: (11 + 15 = 26 personas)
Entonces ahora la probabilidad es:
q = 11/26
La probabilidad conjunta (es decir, la probabilidad de que ambos eventos pasen) es igual al producto de las probabilidades individuales.
P = (12/27)*(11/26) = 0.188
Answer:
224 inches cubed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the area of a square is 16 square inches, the side length is 4 inches. This is because a square's formula for area is the side squared.
Since the box is 14 inches tall, we multiply 4 inches by 4 inches by 14 inches. This means the answer is 224 inches cubed.
We also notice we don't need a measurement for the base sides, we only need to multiply the area by the height.
Step-by-step explanation:
Square both sides of the equation.
