Find the value of x and y so that both proportions will be correct:

Mathematics
1 answer:
andrew11 [14]3 years ago

The values of x and y are 0.2 and 0.4 respectively.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

The given proportions are.....

x: 1\frac{2}{3}=y: 3\frac{1}{3} and y:1.5=0.2:0.75

From the second proportion, we will get....

y:1.5=0.2:0.75\\ \\ \frac{y}{1.5}=\frac{0.2}{0.75} \\ \\ 0.75y=0.2*1.5\\ \\ 0.75y=0.3\\ \\ y=\frac{0.3}{0.75}=0.4

Now, we will plug this y=0.4 into the first proportion. So we will get....

x: 1\frac{2}{3}=y: 3\frac{1}{3}\\ \\ x: \frac{5}{3}=0.4:\frac{10}{3} \\ \\ \frac{x}{\frac{5}{3}}= \frac{0.4}{\frac{10}{3}}\\ \\ \frac{3x}{5}=\frac{1.2}{10}\\ \\ 30x=6\\ \\ x= \frac{6}{30}=0.2

So, the values of x and y are 0.2 and 0.4 respectively.

It takes Bobby 12 hours longer to build a robot than it takes Alex. Together, they can build the Robot in 8 hours. How long does
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

24 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of hours taken by Bobby to build the robot by himself is shown below:

Given that

Bobby could take 12 hours

Together they could build in 8 hours

So based on the above information

the number of hours taken by Bobby to build the robot by himself is

Let us assume the above line be x

So,

\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{x}  \\\\\frac{6 - 4}{48} = \frac{1}{x}  \\\\\frac{2}{48} = \frac{1}{x}  \\\\x = \frac{48}{2}

x = 24 hours

Tricia and Melanie are both saving money for their summer vacations. They both began saving at the same time. Tricia started wit
fomenos

Answer:

Approximately 2 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Tricia: f(d) = 5.15m + 10.25

Melanie: f(d) = 10.25m

f(d) is the total savings altogether

m is the amount of months

5.15(2) + 10.25 = 20.55

10.25(2) = 20.50

They will have the same amount of savings in approximately 2 months

1.990291 is the actual time (in months) they will be the same
