In the given question total number of ducks swimming in the pond is given as 7.

Out of these 7 ducks 3 have green wings and 4 have blue wings.

We need to find the fraction of ducks who have green wings.

The fraction of ducks having green wings can be found by dividing the number of ducks with green wings by the total number of ducks.

The number of green wings duck will be the numerator and the total number of ducks will be the denominator of the fraction.

Fraction of ducks which have green wings = $\frac{3}{7}$

Maybe you can study it or figure out a trick. I usually study with my sibling, but if you don't have any, friends or other family. I am sure they won't mind. Also, maybe making flashcards, those work well.
Also, you can print out worksheets and make your brain remember. PRACTICE!

Meg is 6 years older than Victor. Meg's age is 2 years less than five times Victor's age. The equations below model the relation

Verdich [7]

Since no possible correct method is posted, I will suggest a couple.

Method 1: guess and check

Works well for simple problems involving integers like this one.

Victor's age must be zero or greater than one, say one.

Guess v=1, find m=v+6=7, check m=5v-2=5-2=3 no good.

we need to make v bigger

Guess v=2, find m=v+6=2+6=8, check m=5v-2=5*2-2=8 ✔

So v=2, m=8.

Method 2:

Solve the system of two equations.

since the left-hand sides is m in both equations, and since m=m, we just have to equate the right-hand sides to solve for v.

5v-2=v+6

Solve for v

5v-v = 6+2

4v=8

v=2,

so again, v=2, m=v+6=2+6=8.

What times itself 3 times to get -0.125

Verdich [7]

That would be -0.041

-0.125/3 = -0.041666666

Answer:

$\tan(51°) = \frac{10}{x} \\x = \frac{10}{ \tan(51°) } \\ x = \frac{10}{1.235} \\ \boxed{ x = 8.1}$

<h3>★ Value of x is <u>8.1</u>.</h3>

$\sin(51°)= \frac{10}{H} \\ h = \frac{10}{ \sin(51°) } \\ H= \frac{10}{0.777} \\ \boxed{H= 12.8676}$

<h3>★ Value of H is <u>12.8676</u>.</h3>

Remember:

tan∅=Perpendicular/Base
sin∅=Perpendicular/Hypotenuse

Write an equation to represent this situation and answer the question

il63 [147K]

The equation would be x+3x(10+2x)=142
The sides are 22cm , 54cm and 66 cm.
