The fraction of the furniture sold that are tables is given by 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)

<h3>Equation</h3>

Let

  • number of chairs = x
  • Number of tables = y

Number of tables and chairs sold = 1/2(x + y)

= 1/2x + 1/2y

  • Fraction of chairs sold = 1/2x
  • Fraction of tables sold = 1/2y

Furniture remaining = 1/3(x + y)

Fraction of tables sold = 1/2y ÷ 1/3(x + y)

= 1/2y ÷ 1/3x + 1/3y

= 1/2y × 1 / (1/3x + 1/3y)

= 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)

Therefore, the fraction of the furniture sold that are tables is given by 1/2y / (1/3x + 1/3y)

Kenzie makes quilts from blue and purple pieces of fabric. The diagram shows the ratio of blue pieces to
REY [17]

The purple pieces are 35 and total pieces is 32 if the Kenzie makes quilts from blue and purple pieces of fabric.

<h3>What is the ratio?</h3>

It is described as the comparison of two quantities to determine how many times one obtains the other. The proportion can be expressed as a fraction or as a sign: between two integers.

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the picture.

Total number of pieces = 3+5 = 8

So, the purple pieces = 5(5/8) = 35

Total pieces = 20/(5/8) = 4×8 = 32

Thus, the purple pieces are 35 and total pieces is 32 if the Kenzie makes quilts from blue and purple pieces of fabric.

This is an exponential equation that can be represented by the following:

f(x) = a(b)^x

In this case...

25143 = a(0.66)^3

25143 is the population after 3 hours.

3 is the amount of time in hours.

0.66 represents the percent of the population remaining after each hour (66% as there is a 34% decline each hour).

We must solve for a, which is the initial population.

First, simplify (0.66)^3 to 0.2874.

25143 = 0.2874a

Now divide both sides by 0.2874 to isolate a.

a = 87455

There were initially 87,455 people within the city. I wouldn't want to be in that place!
