Answer:
252 bags of maize
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are told that a farmer harvested maize
In the year 2012 = 144 bags of maize
In the year 2013(following year) the harvest decreased in the ratio 3:4
This means
3:4 = 2013: 2012.
Where number of bags harvested in 2013 = unknown = x
3/4 = x/ 144
Cross multiply 4x = 3 × 144
x = 3 × 144/ 4
× = 108
This means 108 bags of maize was harvested in 2013
The total number of bags harvested is = 108 + 144
= 252 bags of maize.
Divide the first one by the second and the answer will be B.
Okay so in a gallon there are 16 cups, in this case 100 cups is equivalent to 6.25 gallons. 6.25 times 3.12= 19.5
Therefore $19.5 is how much the gas cost!
Answer:
|x - 1 |> 6,
Step-by-step explanation:
First we find the distance between the two points
-5 to 7
7 - -5 =7+5 = 12
We find 1/2 that distance
12/2 = 6
So we are looking for a greater-than inequality because we are looking for the outsides because we want a less than and a greater than
|x - b |> c,
The center is 6 to that is c
|x - b |> 6,
To find the value of b
Let x = 7
7 -b =6
b=1
|x - 1 |> 6,
We can check by using -5
|-5 - 1 |> 6,
I believe your answer is 8.
Three times a number less than twice the number and nine is seventeen can be written as: 3n - 2n + 9 = 17
Solve for n as follows:
3n - 2n = n
n + 9 = 17
17 - 9 = 8
Hope this helps! :)
