Wait so what is the point of this question?
Answer:
<h2><em><u>Option</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>B</u></em><em><u>:</u></em></h2><h3><em><u>112</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>families</u></em><em><u> </u></em></h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>Given</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>
No. of families = 75
Out of 75 no. of families had cars = 42
Out of 1, no. of families can have cars
<em><u>Therefore</u></em><em><u>, </u></em>
Out of 200 families, no. of families had cars
= 8 × 14
= 112
<em><u>Hence</u></em><em><u>, </u></em>
<em><u>option</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>B</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>correct</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>as</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>112</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>families</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>have</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>cars</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>out</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>of</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>200</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>families</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>Ans</u></em><em><u>)</u></em>
I suppose you just have to simplify this expression.
(2ˣ⁺² - 2ˣ⁺³) / (2ˣ⁺¹ - 2ˣ⁺²)
Divide through every term by the lowest power of 2, which would be <em>x</em> + 1 :
… = (2ˣ⁺²/2ˣ⁺¹ - 2ˣ⁺³/2ˣ⁺¹) / (2ˣ⁺¹/2ˣ⁺¹ - 2ˣ⁺²/2ˣ⁺¹)
Recall that <em>n</em>ª / <em>n</em>ᵇ = <em>n</em>ª⁻ᵇ, so that we have
… = (2⁽ˣ⁺²⁾ ⁻ ⁽ˣ⁺¹⁾ - 2⁽ˣ⁺³⁾ ⁻ ⁽ˣ⁺¹⁾) / (2⁽ˣ⁺¹⁾ ⁻ ⁽ˣ⁺¹⁾ - 2⁽ˣ⁺²⁾ ⁻ ⁽ˣ⁺¹⁾)
… = (2¹ - 2²) / (2⁰ - 2¹)
… = (2 - 4) / (1 - 2)
… = (-2) / (-1)
… = 2
Another way to get the same result: rewrite every term as a multiple of <em>y</em> = 2ˣ :
… = (2²×2ˣ - 2³×2ˣ) / (2×2ˣ - 2²×2ˣ)
… = (4×2ˣ - 8×2ˣ) / (2×2ˣ - 4×2ˣ)
… = (4<em>y</em> - 8<em>y</em>) / (2<em>y</em> - 4<em>y</em>)
… = (-4<em>y</em>) / (-2<em>y</em>)
… = 2
- you will need 2 busses to only transport the boys.
- Mark is at (1 + 5/6) miles of his house.
<h3>How many buses would it take to carry only the boys?</h3>
We know that there are (3 + 1/2) groups, such that each group fill one bus.
2/5 of the students are boys, then the number of groups that we can make only with boys is:
(2/5)*(3 + 1/2) = 6/5 + 1/5 = 7/5 = 5/5 + 2/5 = 1 + 2/5
Then you can make one and a little less than a half of a group, which means that you need 1 and 2/5 of a buss to transport the boys, rounding that to the a whole number, you will need 2 busses to only transport the boys.
<h3>How far is Mark from his house?</h3>
The original distance is:
D = (2 + 3/4) miles.
But Mark only covers 2/3 of that distance, then we have:
d = (2/3)*D = (2/3)*(2 + 3/4) miles = (4/3 + 2/4) miles
d = (4/3 + 1/2) miles = (8/6 + 3/6) miles = (1 + 5/6) miles
Mark is at (1 + 5/6) miles of his house.
