Given:
Two brothers are sharing a certain sum of money in the ratio 
.
The largest share was Gh¢500.00.
To find:
The total amount shared between them.
Solution:
It is given that, two brothers are sharing a certain sum of money in the ratio .
First we need to make the denominators common.
So, the two brothers are sharing a certain sum of money in the ratio 10:9.
Let the shares of two brothers are 10x and 9x respectively. So, the larger share is 10x.
It is given that the largest share was Gh¢500.00.
Now, the total amount shared between them is:
Therefore, the total amount shared between them is Gh¢950.00.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You are being asked to compare the value of a growing infinite geometric series to a fixed constant. Such a series will always eventually have a sum that exceeds any given fixed constant.
__
<h3>a)</h3>
Angelina will get more money from the Choice 1 method of payment. The sequence of payments is a (growing) geometric sequence, so the payments and their sum will eventually exceed the alternative.
__
<h3>c)</h3>
For a first term of 1 and a common ratio of 2, the sum of n terms of the geometric series is given by ...
Sn = a1×(r^n -1)/(r -1) . . . . . . . . . . series with first term a1, common ratio r
We want to find n such that ...
Sn ≥ 1,000,000
1 × (2^n -1)/(2 -1) ≥ 1,000,000
2^n ≥ 1,000,001 . . . . add 1
n ≥ log(1,000,001)/log(2) . . . . . take the base-2 logarithm
n ≥ 19.93
The total Angelina receives from Choice 1 will exceed $1,000,000 after 20 days.
Answer:
80% of the buttons were large.
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that percentages are fractions.
We first need to find the total number of buttons that Eva bought
64 + 16 = 80
Then we need to divide 64 into 80 as a fraction of the whole (80 is our whole)
64 ÷ 80 = 0.8
To convert our decimal to a percentage, we must multiply it by 100.
0.8 * 100% = 80%
Therefore, 80% of the buttons were large.
Answer:
x=1, y=2. (1, 2).
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x+10y=17
3x+7y=17
---------------
17y=34
y=34/17
y=2
3x+7(2)=17
3x+14=17
3x=17-14
3x=3
x=3/3
x=1
