11 times as many damselfish as clownfish would mean damselfish = 11 times clownfish. Use variable to represent each fish, so variable c will be used to represent clownfish and variable d with be used to represent damselfish. So from as before, d = 11c . Since there is a total of 36 fish, the equation would look to be about d + c = 36. Since we know that d = 11c, you replace the d with 11c. So it will now look like 11c + c = 36. Add like terms , which will be 11c + c to equal 12c. So the new equation is now 12c = 36. To isolate variable c, divide 12 to both sides to get c = 3 . There are 3 clownfish. To find out how many damselfish, replace 3 with c in the equation for d, which is d = 11c. d = 11(3) . d = 33. There are 33 damselfish and 3 clownfish in the tank.

Two experiments are to be performed. The first can result in any one of m possible outcomes. If the first experiment results in
Galina-37 [17]

Answer: The first experiment has M probabilities, and the second has I(m) outcomes, that depends on the result of the first.

And lets call m to the result of the first experiment.

If the outcome of the first experiment is 1, then the second experiment has 1 possible outcome.

If the outcome of the first experiment is 2, then the second experiment has 2 possibles outcomes.

If the outcome of the first experiment is M, then the second experiment has M possibles outcomes.

And so on.

So the total number of combinations C is the sum of all the cases, where we exami

2 outcomes for m=2

M outcomes for m = M

C = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +...´+M

A is 60% of B , B is 30% of C, what percentage of C is A
zaharov [31]
A is 30% more than B. So, A = B + 30% of B = B + 30/100 *B = B + 3/10 *B = 13/10 *B. B is 60% less than C. So, B = C - 60% of C = C - 60/100 *C = C - 3/5 *C = 2/5 *C.
