STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given information:

Let x be the number

Mathematically, the statement can be translated below as

\begin{gathered} x\text{ }\times\frac{1}{2}\text{ = }\frac{1}{3} \\ \frac{x}{2}\text{ = }\frac{1}{3} \\ \text{Cross multiply} \\ 3\times x\text{ = 2}\times1 \\ 3x\text{ = 2} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 3} \\ \frac{3x}{3}\text{ = }\frac{2}{3} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{2}{3} \end{gathered}

The next step is to represent it on a tape diagram

If a bag contains 6 red balls, 4 green balls, and 3 blue balls. If we choose a ball, then another ball without putting the first
Evgesh-ka [11]

hello,

red 6

green 4

blue 3

  • first ball is green:

\frac{4}{13}

  • second ball is red:

\frac{6}{12}  =  \frac{1}{2}

The probability that these two events happen at the same time is:

\frac{4}{13}  \times  \frac{1}{2}  =  \frac{4}{26}  =  \frac{2}{13}

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.
astraxan [27]

Answer: y = -x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form by following the format of y=mx+b. "y" represents the output, "m" represents the slope (vertical change compared to the horizontal change), "x" represents the input, and "b" represents the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis). Since the line is decreasing, the slope is negative. Since the line crosses the y-axis at a negative point on the y-axis, the equation includes a "- 8".

Gordon, Caroline & Malachy share some money in the ratio
pshichka [43]

Answer:

£33

Step-by-step explanation:

The share ratio is 3 :3:4

So the rational division is 3 + 3 + 4 = 10

Gordon and Malachy share is £77,

calculting \: total \: amt \: shared \\ \frac{3}{10}  +  \frac{4}{10}  = 77 \\  \frac{3 + 4}{10}  = 77 \\  \frac{7}{10}  = 77 \\ total \: amt \:  =  \frac{77 \times 10}{7}  = 110

Carol's share =

\frac{3}{10}  \times 110  = 33

=£33

NEED THIS NOW.
uysha [10]

Answer:

1053.7$

Step-by-step explanation:

750$ x 12%= 90

first year: 750 + 90 = 840

840$ x 12%= 100.8$

second year: 840+ 100.8= 940.8

940.8$ x 12%= 112.896

third year (now)= 940.8+ 112.896 = 1053.696$
