Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age be xy or 10x + y.
Reverse the two digits of my age, divide by three, add 20, and the result is my age, convert this to equation:
- (10y + x)/3 + 20 = 10x + y
- (10y + x)/3 = 10x + y - 20
- 10y + x = 3(10x + y - 20)
- 10y + x = 30x + 3y - 60
- 30x - x + 3y - 10y = 60
- 29x - 7y = 60
We should consider both x and y are between 1 and 9 since both the age and its reverse are 2-digit numbers.
Possible options for x are:
- 29x ≥ 7*1 + 60 = 67 ⇒ x > 2, at minimum value of y,
and
- 29x ≤ 7*9 + 60 = 123 ⇒ x < 5, at maximum value of y.
So x can be 3 or 4.
<h3>If x = 3</h3>
- 29*3 - 7y = 60
- 87 - 7y = 60
- 7y = 27
- y = 27/7, discarded as fraction.
<h3>If x = 4</h3>
- 29*4 - 7y = 60
- 116 - 7y = 60
- 7y = 56
- y = 8
So the age is 48.
Answer: 1 3/4 cups of apples in each batch
Step-by-step explanation:
STEP 1
Writing out the equation to represent if 7 cups of apples make 4 batches One batch is as a result of how many cups of apples
LET x be number of cups of apples to make each batch
7 cups of apples = 4 Batches
x cups of apples = 1 Batch
STEP 2 Solving by cross multiplication
1 batch x 7 cups of apples = 4 batches X x cups of apples
x cups of apples=1 batch x 7 cups of apples / 4batches
x = 7 / 4 = 1 3/4
number of cups of apples to make each batch= 1 3/4
Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
Are you looking for c? if so c=5
The probability that the sum of the dice is 7 is 1/2 because there are only three combinations that result in the sum of 7: (1,6)(2,5) and (3,4). But there are 6 possible outcomes( this is if you don’t add reverse combinations such as 1,6 and 6,1) so the probability would be 3/6 or 1/2
