3 x 5 = 15 and 7 x 5 = 35

So the ratio would be 15 : 35

There are 20 20 coins in a jar. Each coin is either a nickel or a quarter. If one of the coins is selected at random, the probab

sveta [45]

Answer: there are 8 quarters in the jar

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of nickels that is inside the jar.

The total number of coins inside the jar is 20.

Probability is expressed as

Number of possible or favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes.

The probability of selecting a nickel is 0.6. This is expressed as

0.6 = x/20

Cross multiplying, it becomes

x = 20 × 0.6

x = 12

Since there are 12 nickels inside the jar, then the number of quarters would be

20 - 12 = 8

natta225 [31]

Answer:

b. circle; $2(x')^2+2(y')^2-5x'-5\sqrt{3}y'-6 =0$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given conic has equation;

$x^2-5x+y^2=3$

We complete the square to obtain;

$(x-\frac{5}{2})^2+(y-0)^2=\frac{37}{4}$

This is a circle with center;

$(\frac{5}{2},0)$

This implies that;

$x=\frac{5}{2},y=0$

When the circle is rotated through an angle of $\theta=\frac{\pi}{3}$ ,

The new center is obtained using;

$x'=x\cos(\theta)+y\sin(\theta)$ and $y'=-x\sin(\theta)+y\cos(\theta)$

We plug in the given angle with x and y values to get;

$x'=(\frac{5}{2})\cos(\frac{\pi}{3})+(0)\sin(\frac{\pi}{3})$ and $y'=--(\frac{5}{2})\sin(\frac{\pi}{3})+(0)\cos(\frac{\pi}{3})$

This gives us;

$x'=\frac{5}{4} ,y'=\frac{5\sqrt{3} }{4}$

The equation of the rotated circle is;

$(x'-\frac{5}{4})^2+(y'-\frac{5\sqrt{3} }{4})^2=\frac{37}{4}$

Expand;

$(x')^2+(y')^2-\frac{5\sqrt{3} }{2}y'-\frac{5}{2}x'+\frac{25}{4} =\frac{37}{4}$

Multiply through by 4; to get

$4(x')^2+4(y')^2-10\sqrt{3}y'-10x'+25 =37$

Write in general form;

$4(x')^2+4(y')^2-10x'-10\sqrt{3}y'-12 =0$

Divide through by 2.

$2(x')^2+2(y')^2-5x'-5\sqrt{3}y'-6 =0$
