This is the concept of algebra, given that ab^4=12 and a^5b^5=7776, the value if a will be found as follows:
ab^4=12
a=12/b^4
also;
a^5=7776/b^5
thus;
a=(7776/b^5)^(1/5)
a=6/b
thus the value of a will be:
6/b=12/b^4
dividing both sides by b we get:
6=12/b^3
multiplying both sides by b^3 we get
6b^3=12
b^3=2
hence;
b=2^(1/3)
If the quiz is worth 50 points and each question is worth 10 that means for every question he could’ve missed would be taking away 10 from that 50. So lets say if he misses 2 questions. 2 x 10 would be 20. You take away 20 from 50 which would be: 50 - 20 = 30. And it goes on from there.
Hope that helps!
Given:
8 2/3 hours per month
12 months in a year.
Number of hours she play soccer in a year.
8 2/3 must be converted to improper fraction.
((8*3)+2)/3 = 26/3
26/3 * 12 = (26 * 12)/3 = 312/3 = 104
Yolanda spends 104 hours in a year playing soccer.
