Frank, mary and seth shared some sweets in the ratio 4;5;7

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rashid [163]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

total = 96 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

sweets shared in the ratio 4 : 5 : 7 = 4x : 5x : 7x ( x is a multiplier )

Seth got 18 more sweets than Frank , that is

7x = 4x + 18 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

3x = 18 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 6

Then

total = 4x + 5x + 7x = 16x = 16 × 6 = 96 sweets

An arithmetic sequence with a third term of 8 and a constant difference of 5.
larisa [96]
An arithmetic sequence (a_n) is as follows:

a_1\\a_2=a_1+d\\a_3= a_1+2d\\a_4=a_1+3d,... where a_1 is the first term and d is the constant difference, 

thus, we see that the n'th term of an arithmetic sequence is a_n=a_1+(n-1)d


in our particular case d=5, the third term is 8, so we have:

a_3=8=a_1+2\cdot5\\\\8=a_1+10\\\\a_1=-2


and the general term is a_n=-2+5(n-1),


Answer: first term is -2, n'th term is -2+5(n-1)

Richie and bethany play basketball and practice shooting free throws after school. During one practice session, Richie attempted
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

<em>Bethany did not do better than Richie because her average score was less than his.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Average Value</u>

The average or mean value of m successes out of n tries is given by:

\displaystyle \bar x=\frac{m}{n}

During a practice session playing basketball, Richie made m=12 free throws from n=15 attempts. His average score was:

\displaystyle \bar x=\frac{12}{15}=0.8

Bethany made 8 free throws for every 3 that she missed, this means she made 8 out of 11 attempts. Her average score was:

\displaystyle \bar x=\frac{8}{11}=0.72

Bethany did not do better than Richie because her average score was less than his.

Ariel wants to write 8 entries for her blog. After 2 hours, she has 5 entries left. After 4 hours, she has 2 entries left. Which
Komok [63]
After 2 hours she wrote 3 entries.
after 4 hours she wrote 6 entries.
This means that for same period she is writing same number of entries which means her "writing speed" is constant.
that means that graph is linear function (straight line).

slope we calculate by putting coordinates of y and x of any dot on that line. we can use one of those given by text of task. (in 2 hours she wrote 3 entries)
y = k*x
k = y/x
k = 1.5
