Answer:

The ratios are not equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

To justify the answer we will assume the dimes and quarters.

Let number of dimes be denoted by 'x'.

Let number of quarters denoted by 'y'.

In Siri's coin purse

Number of dimes (x) = 6

Number of quarters (y) = 4

Therefore ratio of quarter to dimes we get;

\frac{x}{y}=\frac{6}{4} ⇒ equation 1.

In Martha Coin purse.

Number of dimes (x) = 5

Number of quarters (y) = 3

Therefore ratio of quarter to dimes we get;

\frac{x}{y}=\frac{5}{3} ⇒ equation 2.

Now we will check if both have the same ratios.

We will check by making both equation 1 and equation 2 equal.

\frac{6}{4}=\frac{5}{3}

By cross multiplication we get;

18\neq 20

Hence the ratios are not equal.

Consider a bag of jelly beans that has 30 red, 30 blue, and 30 green jelly beans. a) How many color combinations of 15 beans hav
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

680

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red beans = 30

Number of Blue beans = 30

Number of green beans = 30

How many color combinations of 15 beans have at least 6 green beans?

Since at least 6 of the beans must be green,

Then (15 - 6) = 9

Then, the remaining 9 could be either red, blue or green.

Therefore, C(9 + (9 - 1), 3)

C(17, 3) = 17C3

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)! r!

17C3 = 17! ÷ (17 - 3)! 3!

17C3 = 17! ÷ 14!3!

17C3 = (17 * 16 * 15) / (3 * 2)

17C3 = 4080 / 6

17C3 = 680 ways
