First we need to calculate the number of people wearing a blue shirt,
90 - 50 - 15 = 25
the ratio is actually just like division, like the way you wrote fractions. the number on top will be the number of people who wears blue, and the number at the bottom will be the total number of people
25/90
but we need to simplify that.
5/18
therefore the ratio will be 5:18
Answers:
x = 7%
y = 2 slips
Explanation:
The expected value is the result of the sum of each value times its probabilities:
Expeted value = probability 1 × value 1 + probability 2 × value 2 + probability 3 × value 3 + .....
Case 1: at the beginning of the contest:
total number of slips: 30 + 15 + 5 = 50
probability 1 = 30/50
value 1 = 5%
probability 2 = (15/50)
value 2 = x%
probability 3 = (5/50)
value 3 = 15%
⇒ Expected value = 6.6% = (30/50) 5% + (15/50)x% + (5/50)15%
⇒ (15/50)x% = 6.6% - (30/50)5% - (5/50)15%
⇒ (15/50) x% = 2.1%
⇒ x% = (50 / 15) 2.1% = 7%
Answer: 7%
2) Case 2: at one point, ...
Yet, the equation for the expected value is:
Expeted value = probability 1 × value 1 + probability 2 × value 2 + probability 3 × value 3 + .....
Only the probabilities have changed, but the discounts are the same. This is x% is the same value found above: 7%.
The total number of slips now is 4 + y + 2 = 6 + y
And the expected value becomes:
8% = [ 4 / (6+y) ] 5% + [ y / (6 + y) ] 7% + [2 / (6 + y)] 15%
From which you obtain:
Mulitplying by 6+ y: 8% [6 + y] = 4×5% + y×7% + 2×15%
⇒ 8% y + 8%×6 = 4×5% + y 7% + 2×15%
⇒ 8% y - 7%y = 4×5% + 2×15% - 6×8%
⇒ 0.01y = 0.2 + 0.3 - 0.48 = 0.02
⇒ y = 2
If AB is twice as large as A'B', the scale factor must be 0.5 to get from AB to A'B':
Two feet is sixteen inches so ghetto is twenty for inches so the answer is teo
True because if you are multiplying any number by a fraction smaller than 1, you are practically dividing it so the number become smaller. For example, multiplying by 1/2 is findind the half so its gonna get smaller.
