16. Joe has 5 sports cards. He bought 3 packs with

Given that a:b = 4:5 and b:c=3.2 find the ratio a:b:c in its simplest form

alex41 [277]

A:b = 4:5
b:c=3:2
b was 5 then it was 3, so you have to find the common multiple which is 15.
you’d have to times the 4 (a) by 3 since that 5x3 is 15
you’d have to times the 2 (c) by 5 since 5x3 is 15 again.
therefore the answer would be
a:b:c
12:15:10
I hope this makes sense it was kinda hard to explain sorry :)

suppose a weather app says that the probability of rain today is 30%. What is the complement of the event ""rain today"" what is

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The complement event would be: "No rain today"

Its probability would be 70%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the event:

A= rain today

The probability of rain today is 30%

P(A)=30%=0.3

The complement event has all the values that are not included in the event.

The complement event would be:

A'= No rain today

The probability of a event is the subtraction between 1 and the complement event:

P(A')=1-P(A)

Then, the probability of the event "No rain today" will be:

P(A')=1-0.3=0.7=70%

Andy runs 436.8 meters in 62.08 seconds.if Andy runs at a consistent speed how fast does he run in one second? Give your answer

Zina [86]

Andy runs 7 meters per second.

436.8/62.08 = x/1
436.8/62.08=7.04
7.04/1 =7.0/1

Hope that help!:)

A spinner for a board game consists of a cardboard circle with two plastic arrows anchored to its center. The arrows are congrue

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

The approximate total area of the plastic triangles on the spinner is 2 × 3.9 square centimeters = 7.7 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:A spinner for a board game consists of a cardboard circle with two plastic arrows anchored to its center. The arrows are congruent isosceles triangles connected at their bases.

also, Given: The base of each triangle measures 2 centimeters and the perimeter of each triangle is 10 centimeters.

We have to find the approximate total area of the plastic triangles on the spinner.

Perimeter of triangle is the sum of sides.

Since given the triangle to be isosceles .

Let the two equal side be x cm, then,

Perimeter of given triangle = 1 0

⇒ x + x + 2 = 1 0

⇒ 2x = 8

⇒ x = 4

Thus, side of triangle is 4 cm.

Now we find the area of isosceles triangle.

We first find the height, using Pythagoras theorem,

$(AC)^2=(AD)^2+(DC)^2$

Putting values, we get,

$(4)^2=(AD)^2+(1)^2$

Solving we get,

$AD=3.87$

Thus, area of one isosceles triangle $A=\frac{1}{2} bh$

area of one isosceles triangle $A=\frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times 3.87$

On solving we get,

Approximate area of one plastic triangles on the spinner is 3.9 square centimeters.

Thus, the approximate total area of the plastic triangles on the spinner is 2 × 3.9 square centimeters = 7.7 square centimeters

Option (c) is correct.

Letang Industrial Systems Company (LISC) is trying to decide between two different conveyor belt systems. System A costs $280,00

Vanyuwa [196]

We have to calculate the EAC for both the conveyor belt system.

Solutions :

Equivalent Annual Cost or (EAC) for the SYSTEM-A

$\text{Operating cash flow } = \text{Pre-tax annual operating cost (1-tax rate )} + (\text{depreciation expense} \times$ tax rate )

$=-855,000(1-0.23)+\left[\left(\frac{280,000}{4}\right)\times 0.23\right]$

$= (-85,000 \times 0.77 ) + (70,000 \times 0.23)$

= $ 49,350

Year Annual Cost flow Present value factor Present Value of Annual

at 10% cash flow

1 -49,350 0.909091 -44,863.64

2 -49,350 0.826446 -40,785.12

3 -49,350 0.751315 -37,077.39

4 -49,350 0.683013 -33,706.71

Total $ 3.169865 $ -156,432.86

Therefore, Net Present value = present value of the annual cash flow - initial investment.

= 156,432.86 - 280,000

= $ 436,432.86 (negative)

Now the EAC or the Equivalent Annual Cost for System A :

$\text{EAC}= \text{Net present value / (PVIFA 10 percent, 4 years)}$

$=\frac{436,432.86}{3.169865}$

$= 137,681.86$ dollar (negative)

$\text{Operating cash flow } = \text{Pre-tax annual operating cost (1-tax rate )} + (\text{depreciation expense} \times$ tax rate)

$=79,000(1-0.23)+\left[\left(\frac{360,000}{6}\right) \times 0.23\right]$

$=(-78,000 \times 0.77)+(60,000 \times 0.23)$

= -$ 47,030

Year Annual Cost flow Present value factor Present Value of Annual

at 10% cash flow

1 -47,030 0.909091 -42,754.55

2 -47,030 0.826446 -38,867.77

3 -47,030 0.751315 -35,334.34

4 -47,030 0.683013 -32,122.12

5 -47,030 0.620921 -29,201.93

6 -47,030 0.564474 -26,547.21

Total $ 4.355261 $ -204,827.91

Net Present Value = Present Value of annual cash inflows – Initial Investment

$= 204,827.91 - 360,000$

= -$ 564,827.91 (negative)

EAC for system B:

Equivalent Annual Cost for system B $=\frac{\text{net present value}}{\text{PVIFA 10 \text percent, 6 years}}$

$=\frac{-564,827.91}{4.355261}$

= -$129,688.66 (negative)
