Solve for v.<br> 19v – 18 = 16 + 17v

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

v= 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the given equation.

19v – 18 = 16 + 17v

Move -18 to the other side, and swap it's sign.

19v = 16 + 18 + 17v

Move 17v to the other side and swap it's sign.

19v - 17v = 16 + 18

Combine like terms.

2v = 34

Divide by 2v.

v = 17

Three of the choices are ways to express 0.50. Which is NOT?

Ganezh [65]

Option B

5 hundredths is not the way to express 0.50

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Three of the choices are ways to express 0.50

To find: wrong option

Let us first write 0.50 in different ways

<h3><em><u>To convert a Decimal to a Fraction follow these steps: </u></em></h3>

Step 1: Write down the decimal divided by 1, like this: decimal 1.

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. ...

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the fraction.

$\rightarrow 0.50 = \frac{0.50 \times 100}{100} = \frac{50}{100}$

$\frac{50}{100}$ means 50 hundredths

<h3>Therefore option D is correct</h3>

On simplifying $\frac{50}{100}$ we can write,

$\rightarrow \frac{50}{100} = \frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{1}{2}$ means one half

<h3>Therefore option A (one half) is correct</h3>

Similarly, \frac{5}{10} means 5 tenths

<h3>Therefore Option C is also correct</h3>

Thus the wrong option is B

<em><u>Justification:</u></em>

5 hundredths can be written as:

$\frac{5}{100} = 0.05$

Therefore option B is wrong

16.4.57 Question Help A box contains eighteen $1 bills, ten $5 bills, eight $10 bills, three $20 bills, and one $100 bill You bl

Rudiy27

Answer:

$ 7.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

There are 18 $1 bills, ten $5 bills, eight $10 bills, three $20 bills, and one $100 bill,

Total number of bills = 18 + 10 + 8 + 3 + 1 = 40,

$\because \text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}$

Thus,

The probability of $ 1 = $\frac{18}{40}$

The probability of $ 5 = $\frac{10}{40}$

The probability of $ 10 = $\frac{8}{40}$

The probability of $ 20 = $\frac{3}{40}$

The probability of $ 100 = $\frac{1}{40}$

If a bill is selected randomly,

The expected value of the bill

$=\frac{18}{40}\times 1+\frac{10}{40}\times 5+\frac{8}{40}\times 10+\frac{3}{40}\times 20+\frac{1}{40}\times 100$

$=\frac{18+50+80+60+100}{40}$

$=\frac{308}{40}$

= $ 7.7
