noname [10]

Answer:

down below.

Step-by-step explanation:

20 × 400 = 8000

8000 - 7200 = 800

therefore the % mark up is 10%, because 10% of 8000 is 800.

800 + 7200 = 8000

The ratio of boys to girls in a group is 5:3. If there are 18 more boys than girls, work out how
zmey [24]
<h3>Answer:  72 people total</h3>

45 boys, 27 girls

============================================================

Explanation:

g = number of girls

g+18 = number of boys, since there are 18 more boys than girls

For example, if g = 7, then g+18 = 7+18 = 25. In this example, we have 7 girls and 25 boys. The problem with this example is the ratio of boys to girls is 25:7 which is not equal to 5:3

We could use trial and error until we land on the solution, or we can use algebra as shown in the next section.

-------------------

The ratio of boys to girls is 5:3, meaning

(number of boys)/(number of girls) = 5/3

which turns into

(g+18)/g = 5/3

after we make the proper substitutions

Let's solve for g

(g+18)/g = 5/3

3(g+18) = 5g

3g+54 = 5g

54 = 5g-3g

54 = 2g

2g = 54

g = 54/2

g = 27

There are 27 girls.

This leads to,

g+18 = 27+18 = 45

So there are 45 boys

In total, we have 27+45 = 72 people

-----------------------------

Checking the answer:

The claim is that 45/27 is the same as 5/3

For now assume that claim is true. Set the fractions equal to each other and use cross multiplication like so

45/27 = 5/3

45*3 = 27*5

135 = 135

The third equation has the same thing on both sides, so it's a true equation. This must mean the first equation is true as well. Therefore, 45:27 and 5:3 are the same ratio and the answer is confirmed.

You could also use your calculator to note that

45/27 = 1.667

5/3 = 1.667

both decimal values are approximate.

There are five puppies in a litter. If the probability that a puppy is male is 0.5, what is the probability that at most one pup
atroni [7]
I believe C. 0.5 because if the probability that 1 puppy is a male and they are asking what is the probability is that at most one would be male that would seem as the same as saying one male puppy has a 0.5 probability. Hope it help and isn't confusing how I worded it.
