The number of pennies in bank is 42
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that ratio of pennies to quarters in a piggy bank is 14 : 3
Let 14x be the number of pennies in piggy bank
Let 3x be the number of quarters in piggy bank
<em><u>To find: number of pennies</u></em>
Given that there are 51 quarters
number of pennies in piggy bank + number of quarters in piggy bank = 51
14x + 3x = 51
17x = 51
x = 3
number of pennies = 14x = 14(3) = 42
Thus the number of pennies in bank is 42
Answer:
66.6% or 0.66
Step-by-step explanation:
82% or 0.82 of All households have cable TV.
X = The number of households in a group of 6, that have cable TV.
You wish to find the proportion or percentage of groups for which EXACTLY 4 of 6 households will have cable TV.
82% of 6 is = 4.92
Approximately 4.92 out of 6 households, have cable TV.
Using this figure, you can now find out what % of 6 will give you 4.
Cross multiply:
0.82 - 4.92
M - 4
M = (4×0.82) ÷ 4.92 = 3.28÷4.92 = 0.666
Hence, 66.6% of 6 households, have cable TV. In other words, exactly 4 households (X=4) have cable TV.
To test, you can find what 66% of 6 is. You will get 4.
Answer:
x = 3.87
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the right angle altitude theorem, we know that all three triangles are congruent, so the lengths of corresponding sides of the triangles are in proportion..
AD/DB = DB/DC
15/x = x/1
x² = 15
x = √15
x = 3.87
The answer is 12 good luck;)
