To answer this, you will determine what fraction of the original rocks are silver by using the information about the other two colors.

If 2/3 of them area purple, than 1/3 are not.

If 3/4 of the remaining 1/3 is blue, than 3/4 x 1/3 = 3/12 of then are blue.

2/3 are purple, 3/12 of them are blue, the remaining is silver,

1 - 2/3 - 3/12
1 - 8/12 - 3/12 = 1/12

1/12 of the rocks are silver. If 3 are silver, write an equation that needs solved.

1/12r = 3
r = 36 rocks

There were 36 space rocks in total.

A grade has 81 girls and 72 boys. the grade is split into groups that have the same ratio of girls to boys as the whole grade. h

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

There are 18 girls in a group that has 16 boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us for solving the question:

Number of girls in the grade = 81

Number of the boys in the grade = 72

Number of students in the grade = 81 + 72 = 153

2. Let's find the number of girls in a group that has 16 boys.

For getting that number we will use the Rule of three simple, this way:

Number of girls in a group that has 16 boys = (81 * 16)/72

Number of girls in a group that has 16 boys = 1,296 / 72

Number of girls in a group that has 16 boys = 18

There are 18 girls in a group that has 16 boys.

Which of the following steps can be performed so that the square root property may easily be applied to 2x2 = 16? (1 point)

Ivan

Answer:

$\Large \boxed{\mathrm{Option \ 2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x^2 =16$

The square root property requires a quantity squared by itself on one side of the equation. The only quantity squared is x, so divide both sides by 2 before applying the square root property.

The x variable should be isolated on one side of the equation. The x variable is squared so before performing the square root property where we take the square root of both sides, we divide both sides by 2, then take the square root of both sides.

Dividing both sides by 2.

$\displaystyle \frac{2x^2 }{2} =\frac{16}{2}$

$x^2 =8$

Taking the square root of both sides.

$\sqrt{x^2 } =\pm \sqrt{8}$

$x=\pm 2\sqrt{2}$

The line passes through the point (2,-9) and has a zero slope. Write the answer in slope-intercept form.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Okay so for finding the equation of a line, which is a function, the equation is set to y, so you can eliminate A and B. When the slope of an equation is 0, we are saying that the y value of any point of the line is going to be the same, which is 9 from the given point (2,9).

So the answer is C. y=9

Given parameters:

Cost price of the article = Nu.28.30

Selling price of the article = Nu.29.30

Unknown:

Gain percentage = ?

The gain percentage is the same as the percentage profit on a trade.

The formula is given as:

Gain percentage = $\frac{Profit}{Cost price} x 100$

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

= Nu.29.30 - Nu.28.30

= Nu. 1

Now input the parameters and solve;

Gain percentage = $\frac{1}{28.3} x 100$

= 3.5%

The gain percent is 3.5%
