Answer:

The number of boys = 32

The number of girls = 56

therefore, to fine the possible ratio, you divided 32 and 56 to their lowest terms.

i.e 32: 56. 32÷8 : 56÷8 = 4:7

25 tickets

I put the information into this equation 5+0.65x=10+0.45x

I solved the equation by first subtracting the 0.45x from both sides to get the variable on one side. I was left with 5+0.20x=10. Then I subtracted the 5 from both sides and got 0.20x=5. Finally I divided both sides by 0.20 to get the X by itself and got X=25

Solve the following using the elimination or substitution method. Show all work.

ki77a [65]

Jim has 28 nickels and 37 dimes in his pocket. which is determined by the substitution method.

<h3>What is the equation?</h3>

The term "equation" refers to mathematical statements that have at least two terms with variables or integers that are equal.

Let the number of nickels would be n

Let the number of dimes would be d

As per the given question,

d + n = 65 ....(i)

0.10d + 0.05n = 5.10 ....(ii)

From equation (i),

d + n = 65

d + n - n = 65 - n

d = 65 - n

Substitute in for the equation(ii): d = 65 - n

0.10(65 - n) + 0.05n = 5.10

6.5 - 0.10n + 0.05n = 5.10

6.5 - 0.05n = 5.10

6.5 - 0.05n - 6.5 = 5.10 - 6.5

- 0.05n = -1.4

n = 28

This means there are 28 nickels

Substitute the value of n = 28 in the equation (i),

d + n = 65

d + 28 = 65

d = 37

So there are 37 dimes

Thus, Jim has 28 nickels and 37 dimes in his pocket.

the forecast calls for a 30% chance of snow today and a 40% chance of snow tomorrow. what are the chances it will rain two days

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The chances it will rain two days in a row is 12%

Step-by-step explanation:

The forecast calls for a 30% chance of snow today

So, chance of snowfall today = 30% = 0.3

A 40% chance of snow tomorrow.

So, chance of snowfall tomorrow= 40% = 0.4

The chances it will rain two days in a row = $0.4 \times 0.3$

= $0.12$

So, percent it will rain two days in a row = $0.12 \times 100 = 12\%$

Hence the chances it will rain two days in a row is 12%
