Are the ratios 25/45 and 15/27 proportional? Explain.

1 answer:

6 0

Write them out as a fraction then reduce them. If theyre the same then its proportional.

25/45 can be cancelled down to 5/9

15/27 can be cancelled down to 3/9

So no theyre not.

How do you solve -178=-5x+4(-4x-13)

Effectus [21]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Pull out like factors:

-4x - 13 = -1 • (4x + 13)

Equation at the end of step 2:

-178 - (-5x + -4 • [4x + 13] ) = 0

Pull out like factors:

21x - 126 = 21 • (x - 6)

Equation at the end of step 4:

21 • (x - 6) = 0

Solve:

x-6 = 0

Add 6 to both sides of the equation:

x = 6

One canned orange juice is 25% orange juice another is 5% orange juice. How many liters of each should be mixed together in orde

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

$X = \frac{1.6 - 0.05Y}{0.25}= 6.4 -0.2 Y$ (3)

Replcaing equation (3) into equation (2) we got:

$0.75(6.4 -0.2 Y) +0.95 Y = 18.4$

And solving for Y we got:

$4.8 -0.15 Y +0.95 Y = 18.4$

$0.8 Y = 13.6$

$Y = 17$

And solving for X from equation (3) we got:

$X= 6.4 -0.2*17 = 3$

So we need 3L of orange juice with 25% of concentration and 17 L of orange juice with 5% of concentration

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we can work with the concentration of water and orange juice.

Let X the amount for the orange juice with 25% content and Y the amount for the orange juice with 5% of content

Using the concentration of orange juice we have:

$0.25 X + 0.05 Y = 20*0.08$ (1)

And for the water we have:

$0.75 X + 0.95Y = 20*0.92$ (2)

If we solve for X from equation (1) we got:

$X = \frac{1.6 - 0.05Y}{0.25}= 6.4 -0.2 Y$ (3)

Replcaing equation (3) into equation (2) we got:

$0.75(6.4 -0.2 Y) +0.95 Y = 18.4$

And solving for Y we got:

$4.8 -0.15 Y +0.95 Y = 18.4$

$0.8 Y = 13.6$

$Y = 17$

And solving for X from equation (3) we got:

$X= 6.4 -0.2*17 = 3$

So we need 3L of orange juice with 25% of concentration and 17 L of orange juice with 5% of concentration

Consider the following random experiment. First, roll a die and observe the number of dots facing up; then, toss a coin the numb

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

{(1, 0), (1, 1), (2,0), (2,1), (2, 2), (3,0), (3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (4, 0), (4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (5,0), (5,1),(5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (6,0), (6,1),(6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)}

B.)

{(2,2), (3,2), (4,2), (4,4), (5,2), (5,4), (6,2), (6,4), (6,6)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample space :

Die roll, then number of coin tosses based on the outcome of the die roll, then number of heada from the toss(es) is recorded along with the outcome of the die roll.

{(1, 0), (1, 1), (2,0), (2,1), (2, 2), (3,0), (3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (4, 0), (4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (5,0), (5,1),(5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (6,0), (6,1),(6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)}

Event that the total number of head is even:

{(2,2), (3,2), (4,2), (4,4), (5,2), (5,4), (6,2), (6,4), (6,6)}
