Answer:

The fraction of the course 7/8 is male on the maths course at university.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 7 times as many males as females on the maths course at University. Let's suppose we have 10 females in the course.If we have 10 females, the males should be 7 times; it means with 10 females males should be 70 males.

Now, we have the number of males (M) - 70 and females (F) - 10. We can calculate the fraction of the male (%M) in the course.

%M = M/(M+F)

%M = 70 / (70 +10)

% M = 70/80

%M = 7/8.

Finally, we can conclude that the fraction of the course 7/8 are male on the maths course at university.

A share of stock in the Lofty Cheese Company is quoted at 25 1/4. Suppose you hold 30 shares of that stock, which you bought at
Marizza181 [45]
I don't know the options, but I can say this:

if you bought it at 20 1/4 and you sell them at 25 1/4 then your win pro stock is the difference between those two numbers, which is 5. (25 1/4-20 1/4 =5)

and if you sell all of them, your profit will be 30*5=150 dollars.

Given that v = (5,-4, 4) and w = (9-2,7) , evaluate v • w.
yuradex [85]

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

u = (x₁, y₁, z₁ ) and v = (x₂, y₂, z₂ ) then the dot product is

u • v = (x₁ x₂ ) + (y₁ y₂ ) + (z₁ z₂ )

Then

v • w

= (5 × 9) + (- 4 × - 2) + (4 × 7)

= 45 + 8 + 28

= 81 → a
