Answer: 200 bulbs will not be defective.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of defective bulbs to good bulbs produced each day is 2 to 10. This ratio can also be expressed as 1 to 5 by reducing to lowest terms.
The total ratio is the sum of the proportions.
Total ratio = 1 + 5 = 6
This means that if n bulbs is produced, the number of defective bulbs would be
1/6 × n
The number of non defective would be
5/6 × n
Since n = 240, then the number of bulbs that will not be defective is
5/6 × 240 = 200 bulbs
Answer:
Let x be the price of an adult ticket and y be the price of a youth ticket.
One family spends $134 on 2 adult tickets and 3 youth tickets so we can write: 2x+3y=134
Another family spends $146 on 3 adult tickets and 2 youth tickets so we can write: 3x+2y=146
We need to find y so we eliminate x. Multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by 2 to obtain (3) and (4): 6x+9y=402
6x+4y=292
Subtract (3) and (4) and solve for y: 5y=110
y=22→$22
Step-by-step explanation:
1) This sequence of numbers is arithmetic, because each number is the previous one divided by two.
2) the next number in the sequence is 125/2, which is 62.5
