What is £56 divided in a ratio of 3:5?

Mathematics

Luda [366]3 years ago

First, add the ratio together to get the denominator of the fraction you will use to determine the share. 3+5= 8. Now, you have two fractions: 3/8 and 5/8. Next, just find 3/8 and 5/8 of 56 to get your answers:
(56÷8)×3= <span>£21
</span>and
(56÷8)×5= <span>£35</span>

Midway through the fundraiser, Mrs Little, the sponsor, discovers a container of buttermilk in the back of the fridge. It has 6
solong [7]

Answer: 6 recipes

Step-by-step explanation: Just divide the 6 cups of buttermilk by 7/8 because each recipe need 7/8 cup of butter milk. You will get a number like this 6.857142857142857 (there are probably more decimals that come after it.) But, all the numbers after the 6 are useless because more recipes can't be made with those because you need at least 7/8  cups for one recipe. So, this will make 6 recipes. Hope this helps!

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Alana is 13 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you meant Mazo = Maisel,

You start from the bottom:

Amelia is 10 years younger than 17-year-old Maisel.

Amelia is 7 years old. (17-10)

Ernie is 2 years older than 7-year-old Amelia.

Ernie is 9. (2+7)

Alana is 4 years older than 9-year-old Ernie.

Alana is 13 years old. (4+9)

Hope this helps!

Graph f(x) =-2x^+16x-30 by factoring to find the solutions, then find the coordinates of the vertex, and the axis of symmetry. I
fredd [130]

Answer:

<em>Observe attached image</em>

<em>Function zeros:</em>

(3, 0), (5, 0)

<em>Vertex:</em>

(4, 2)

<em>Axis of symmetry:</em>

<em>x =4</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First factorize the function</u>

f (x) = -2x ^ 2 + 16x-30

<em>Take -2 as a common factor.</em>

-2(x ^ 2 -8x +15)

<em>Now factor the expression x ^ 2 -8x +15</em>

You must find two numbers that when you add them, obtain the result -8 and multiplying those numbers results in 15.

These numbers are -5 and -3

Then we can factor the expression in the following way:

f (x) = -2(x-5)(x-3)

<em><u>The quadratic function cuts the x-axis at </u></em><em>x = 3 and at x = 5.</em>

Now we find the coordinates of the vertex.

For a function of the form ax ^ 2 + bx + c the x coordinate of its vertex is:

x = \frac{-b}{2a}

In the function f (x) = -2x ^ 2 + 16x-30

a = -2\\b = 16\\c = 30

<u>Then the vertice is:</u>

x = \frac{-16}{2(-2)}\\\\x = 4

The y coordinate of the symmetry axis is

y = f (4) = -2 (4) ^ 2 +16 (4) -30\\\\y = 2

The axis of symmetry is a vertical line that cuts the parabola in two equal halves. This axis of symmetry always passes through the vertex.

<u>Then the axis of symmetry is the line</u>

x = 4

<u>The solutions and the vertice written as ordered pairs are:</u>

<em>Function zeros:</em>

(3, 0), (5, 0)

<em>Vertex:</em>

(4, 2)
