Let's give the variable that you are trying to answer for a symbol. Let's call it X.
X = the amount of money both Greg and Thomas had in October
We know that in November, Greg added $120 to his account. So, Greg's account has: X + 120
We know that Thomas increased the money in his account by 20%, so Thomas' account has: X + 0.2X, or 1.2X
We know that these two amounts are equal:
X + 120 = 1.2X
Solve for X:
X + 120 - X = 1.2X - X
120 = .2X
120 / .2 = .2X / .2
600 = X
The question is asking to state if those following scale factors are consider as contraction or expansion, base on my research and further analysis, the possible answer are the following:
3/2 expansion
1/3 contraction
4 contraction
2/5 contraction
4/3 expansion
1/4 contraction
I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more if you have question and further clarifications
Answer:
8 portraits are going to be used in the display.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be solved as a rule of three problem.
Each yd has 36 inches.
The display is to span a total width of 10 yd. So it is a total width of 360 inches.
Each portrait has a width of 45 in. How many portraits can there be?
1 portrait - 45 in
x portraits - 360 in
8 portraits are going to be used in the display.
Answer:
Answer choice C
Step-by-step explanation:
Similarly to the previous problem, there are two possibilities. In the first possibility, the chance of picking a digit lower than 7 is 6/9 or 2/3, because there are 6 digits below 7 and 9 digits in total. In this scenario, the probability of the second digit being below 7 is 5/8, since one of the digits has already been taken. The probability here is 5/8*6/9=5/12. In the other scenario, the probability of picking a number higher than 7 is 3/9 or 1/3. In this scenario, the probability of picking below 7 for the second digit is 6/8 or 3/4, because one of the digits has not been taken. 3/9*6/8= 1/4. Adding these two together, you get 8/12=2/3, or answer choice C. Hope this helps!
