A ratio shows us the number of times a number contains another number. Y will get 24 Naira.

<h3>What is a Ratio?</h3>

A ratio shows us the number of times a number contains another number.

Given for every 1 Naira that Z get,Y gets 2 Naira and for every 3 Naira that Y gets X gets 4 Naira. Therefore, the ratio of z to y can be written as,

Z/Y = 1/2

Multiplying both by 3,

Z / Y = 3 / 6

The ratio of Y to X can be written as,

Y/X = 3 / 4

Now, the ratio of the three together can be written as,

X : Y : Z = 8 : 6 : 3

Further we can write,

8a + 6a + 3a = 68

17a = 68

a = 4

As Y gets 6a, therefore, he will get,

Y = 6a = 6(4) = 24 Naira

Hence, Y will get 24 Naira.

En una clase, 1/3 de los estudiantes eligieron estudiar español como segundo lenguaje vivo. 1/9 eligió italiano, el resto eligió
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

5/9

12

Step-by-step explanation:

La clase entera es 1.

1/3 estudian español.

1/9 estudian italiano.

1 - 1/3 - 1/9 estudian alemán.

1 - 1/3 - 1/9 = 9/9 - 3/9 - 1/9 = 5/9

<em>5/9 de los estudiantes estudian alemán.</em>

n = numero total de estudiantes en la clase.

5/9 n = 15

9/5 * 5/9 * n = 15 * 9/5

n = 27

Hay 27 estudiantes en la clase.

27 - 15 = 12

<em>12 estudiantes no estudian alemán.</em>

The lifetime of two light bulbs are modeled as independent and exponential random variables X and Y, with parameters lambda and
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

\bf h(x)=max(\lambda,\mu) e^{-max(\lambda,\mu) x}\;(x\geq0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The PDF of X is

\bf f(x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}\;(x\geq0)

The PDF of Y is

\bf g(x)=\mu e^{-\mu x}\;(x\geq0)

The means of X and Y are respectively,

\bf \displaystyle\frac{1}{\lambda}\;,\displaystyle\frac{1}{\mu}

so we can see that the larger the parameter, the smaller the mean. Hence the PDF of Z = min(X, Y) is an exponential with the largest parameter of the two.

Therefore, the PDF of Z is

\bf h(x)=max(\lambda,\mu) e^{-max(\lambda,\mu) x}\;(x\geq0)

Water is added or drained from a tank each day. The first day, 910 of a gallon is added to the empty tank. The second day, 710 o
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The quantity of water in the tank after 15 days is 1610.0 gallons OR 1.61 × 10³ gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of water in the tank after 15 days is given by the series

910+(−710)+810+(−610)+⋯+310+(−110)+210

From the series, we can observe that, if water is added for a particular day then water will be drained the following day.

Also, for a day when water is to be added, the quantity to be added will be 100 gallon lesser than the quantity that was last added. Likewise, for a day when water is to be drained, the quantity to be drained will be 100 gallons lesser than the quantity that was last drained.

Hence, we can complete the series thus:

910+(−710)+810+(−610)+710(-510)+610(-410)+510(-310)+410(-210)+310+(−110)+210

To evaluate this, we  get

910-710+810-610+710-510+610-410+510-310+410-210+310-110+210

= 1610.0 gallons

Hence, the quantity of water in the tank after 15 days is 1610 gallons OR 1.61 × 10³ gallons.
