A ratio shows us the number of times a number contains another number. The correct option is C.

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

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

For winning less than $10, a person needs to take out a green ticket or a yellow ticket. Therefore, the odds against winning less than $10 are,

(Number of blue tickets) : (Number of green and yellow tickets)

5: 30

1: 6

Hence, the correct option is C.

1) Fred Flint is paid $11.95 an hour with time-and-a-half pay for all hours he works over 40
allsm [11]

Fred's overtime rate and pay is $17.925 and $98.5875 respectively

<h3>Total payment</h3>

  • Amount paid per hour = $11.95

  • Amount paid overtime per hour = $11.95 × 1.5

= $17.925

  • Total hours worked last week = 45 1/2 hours

  • Overwork time = 45 1/2 hours - 40 hours

= 5 1/2 hours

Fred's overtime pay = 5 1/2 hours × $17.925

= 11/2 × 17.925

= $98.5875

Normal work rate = 40 hours × $11.95

= $478

Fred's total pay = Fred's overtime pay + Normal work rate

= $98.5875 + $478

= $576.5875

Therefore, Fred's total pay is $576.5875

Kinda need some help:)
Natali [406]
1.
f(x) = x
g(x) = x + 3

For each x value you use in f(x) and g(x), the corresponding y value in g(x) is always 3 more than in f(x). If each y-coordinate is 3 more, that means the graph is shifted 3 units up. The graph of f(x) is shifted 3 units up to create the graph of g(x).

2.
The first term is -0.5.
Then each term goes up by 0.25.

1st term: -0.5
2nd term: -0.5 + 0.25 = -0.5 + 0.25(1)
3rd term: -0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 = -0.5 + 0.25(2)
4th term: -0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = -0.5 + 0.25(3)
nth term: -0.5 + 0.25(n - 1)

-0.5 + 0.25(n - 1) = -0.5 + 0.25n - 0.25 = -0.75 + 0.25n = 0.25n - 0.75

Answer is C.

Them sum of two numbers is 17. One number is 3 less than 2/3 of the numbers. What is the lesser number?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

The smaller number is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be x

the other number is (17 -x) (we know they add up to 17)

2/3 of the bigger number is written as 2/3 (17 - x)

The smaller number is 3 less than that. (so subtract 3 to get x)

x= 2/3 (17 -x) - 3 <-- We have an equation, solve for x

Check 2/3 x 12 - 3 = 8 - 3 = 5
