Hello,

Let's r the ration

We suppose x ≠0

x=r*(x-2)==>r=x/(x-2)

x+3=r*x==> (x+3)/x=x/(x-2)==>(x+3)(x-2)=x²
==>x²+3x-2x-6=x² ==>x-6=0==>x=6

x-2=6-4=4
x=6
x+3=6+3=9
6=4*3/2
9=6*3/2

Ration 3/2
First term: 4

In an examination 80% students passed. if 15 less have appeared and 10 less have passed, the ratio of passers to failures would
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

60 students passed, and 75 appeared in examination.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say s is the total number of students and p is the number of students who passed.

80% of the students passed, so:

0.8 s = p

If there were 10 less passers, and 15 less students (5 less failures), then the ratio of passers to failures would be 5/1.

(p − 10) / (s − p − 5) = 5 / 1

Simplify the second equation:

p − 10 = 5 (s − p − 5)

p − 10 = 5s − 5p − 25

6p = 5s − 15

Substitute the first equation.

6 (0.8 s) = 5s − 15

4.8 s = 5s − 15

0.2 s = 15

s = 75

p = 0.8 s

p = 60

60 students passed, and 75 appeared in examination.

If something cost2.99$ what is the total cost with taxes
butalik [34]

Without a lot more information, nobody can say. Every city, state, and county
can have its own taxes.  They may be at a different rate from other cities, states,
and counties, and they may apply to different items.

Hey can you help me answer this question by giving me the answer?
Leto [7]

The value of f(a)=4-2a+6a^{2}, f(a+h) is 6a^{2} +6h^{2} -2a-2h+12ah , [f(a+h)-f(a)]/h is 6h+12a-2 in the function f(x)=4-2x+6x^{2}.

Given a function f(x)=4-2x+6x^{2}.

We are told to find out the value of f(a), f(a+h) and [f(a+h)-f(a)]/hwhere h≠0.

Function is like a relationship between two or more variables expressed in equal to form.The value which we entered in the function is known as domain and the value which we get after entering the values is known as codomain or range.

f(a)=4-2a+6a^{2} (By just putting x=a).

f(a+h)==4-2(a+h)+6(a+h)^{2}

=4-2a-2h+6(a^{2} +h^{2} +2ah)

=4-2a-2h+6a^{2} +6h^{2} +12ah

=6a^{2} +6h^{2}-2a-2h+12ah

[f(a+h)-f(a)]/h=[6a^{2} +6h^{2}-2a-2h+12ah-(4-2a+6a^{2} )]/h

=(6a^{2} +6h^{2} -2a-2h+12ah)/h

=(6h^{2} -2h+12ah)/h

=6h+12a-2.

Hence the value of function f(a)=4-2a+6a^{2}, f(a+h) is 6a^{2} +6h^{2} -2a-2h+12ah , [f(a+h)-f(a)]/h is 6h+12a-2 in the function f(x)=4-2x+6x^{2}.
