Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
7x + 8x = 45
15x = 45
x = 45/15
= 3
Then the two numbers are
7x :8x
7 * 3:8 * 3
21: 24
Then the two numbers are 21 and 24.
I hope the procedure in which
the problem is done is clear to you. This is a simple but effective way of
solving such problems. In future this method will make you confident about
solving these kind of problems.
Answer:
a. 720
b. 0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
Three balls are selected at random without replacement.
First ball can be selected in 10 ways
Second ball can be selected in 9 ways
Third ball can be selected in 8 ways
Thus, there are 10×9×8 =720 different ways of selecting three balls.
b.
There are three cases that satisfy this condition
- first ball picked is 5, the others are not
- first ball is not 5, second is 5, third is not
- first and second ball is not five, third ball is 5
Each probabilities are:



Thus, one of the balls selected is the number 5 is then 
Answer:
let alpha be x and beta be y
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y= -b/a
x+y=-1/6
and xy= c/a
xy= -1/3
according to question
1/x+1/y -xy =(x+y)/xy-xy
(-1/6)/(-1/3)-(-1/3)
1/2+1/3
the answer is 5/6
Umm this might be wrong, but i think you have do the inverse, which would make -4 positive, then add that to the 2, and then subtract that from 0.6 and then whatever you answer you get is equal to the variable z.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract 68 by 2, then divide by 33
