N-2= 1/16
⇒ n= 1/16+ 2 (inverse operation)
⇒ n= 2+ 1/16
⇒ n= 2 1/16
Final answer: n= 2 1/16.
Answer:
0.125
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a standard calculus question. If you search out L'Hopital's Rule you will find that there are only Calculus examples present. If you use calculus, the answer comes to 1/8. The only way I can think of doing this without the use of Calculus is to let x = something very small -- say x = 0.0001 That approaches 0, but it is not quite = to 0.
So let's try it.
16 + 0.00001 = 16.00001
sqrt(16.0001) = 4.00000125
Now subtract 4
4.00000125 - 4
0.00000125
Now divide by 0.00001
0.12499998
which is close to 0.125.
If someone else can give you an answer that is "purer" than this one, take it.
Let the number of red beads be x, then the number of yellow beads is 50 - x.
Then, 6/9 = x/(50 - x)
9x = 6(50 - x) = 300 - 6x
15x = 300
x = 300/15 = 20
Therefore, we expect 20 red beads in the bag.
34 as a fraction is 17/50
-7 as a fraction is 8/20
