Answer:
1.) If you did 3 scoops of ice-cream and 2 cups of milk you would have 2 times the amount of milk and only 1 1/2 times the amount of ice-cream then if you did 1 cup of milk and 2 scoops of ice-cream.
(I'm not too sure about number two..)
Answer:
(3, - 3)
Step-by-step explanation: that might be it
Procedure:
1) calculate the number of diferent teams of four members that can be formed (with the ten persons)
2) calculate the number of teams tha meet the specification (two girls and two boys)
3) Divide the positive events by the total number of events: this is the result of 2) by the result in 1)
Solution
1) the number of teams of four members that can be formed are:
10*9*8*7 / (4*3*2*1) = 210
2) Number of different teams with 2 boys and 2 girls = ways of chosing 2 boys * ways of chosing 2 girls
Ways of chosing 2 boys = 6*5/2 = 15
Ways of chosing 2 girls = 4*3/2 = 6
Number of different teams with 2 boys and 2 girls = 15 * 6 = 90
3) probability of choosing one of the 90 teams formed by 2 boys and 2 girls:
90/210 = 3/7
3, 6, 12
I guessed and checked. So if 3 is the smallest number, I would, multiply it by 3, which is 9. 9 is 3 less than the largest number which would be 12. 12 + 3 is 15. To find the third number, subtract 21 and 15 which is 6
x/20 = 21/14 (similar proportions)
x/20 = 3/2 (simplify by canceling out a factor of 7)
x = 30
