It takes an airplane 5/12 of a minute to fly 3/4 of a mile. What is the airplanes speed per minute?

Nikitich [7]

To make this a little easier, you would want to turn 3/4 into 9/12, to match 5/12's denominator.

You would then just add 7/1 to both fractions

(5/12+7/1=12/12 or 1 minutes)
(9/12+7/1=16/12=1 1/3)

So your answer would be 1.333... miles per minute

Hope this helps

Find the missing number based on the description below:

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The number is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

12 less than 7 times a number can be express as follows,

let the number = a

7a - 12

According to the question the number 7a - 12 is equals to 32 less than the product of - 3 and the number.

32 less than the product of -3 and the number can be express below.

-3a - 32. Therefore,

7a - 12 = -3a - 32

collect like terms

7a + 3a = - 32 + 12

10a = -20

divide both sides by 10

a = -20/10

a = -2

The number is -2

There are nickels, dimes, quarters in a large piggy bank, for every 2 nickels there are 3 dimes, for every 2 dimes there are 5 q

Alex

There are 80 nickels and 120 dimes and 300 quarters in piggy bank

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

For every 2 nickels there are 3 dimes ,

So, ratio of nickel to dime will be 2 : 3

Also for every 2 dimes there are 5 quarters

So, ratio of dime to quarters is 2 : 5

Let us first find the ratio of nickles to dimes to quarters

nickel : dime = 2 : 3

dime : quarters = 2 : 5

$\frac{nickel}{dime} = \frac{2}{3}$

$nickel = \frac{2}{3} dime$

$\frac{dime}{quarter} = \frac{2}{5}$

$quarter = \frac{5}{2}dime$

So,

$nickel : dime : quarter = \frac{2}{3}dime : dime : \frac{5}{2}dime\\\\nickel : dime : quarter = \frac{2}{3} : 1 : \frac{5}{2}\\\\nickel : dime : quarter = 4 : 6 : 15$

Thus nickel : dime : quarters = 4 : 6 : 15

Now, let the number of nickel be 4x

Let the number of dimes be 6x

Let the number of quarters be 15x

From given question,

There are 500 coins in all.

number of nickel + number of dimes + number of quarters = 500

4x + 6x + 15x = 500

25x = 500

x = 20

Thus,

number of nickel = 4x = 4(20) = 80

number of dimes = 6x = 6(20) = 120

number of quarters = 15x = 15(20) = 300

Thus there are 80 nickels and 120 dimes and 300 quarters in piggy bank
