3:2
3x - first number
2x - second number

2x = 24 / : 2
x = 12

3*12 = 36

answer: the larger number is 36.

bulgar [2K]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

$\huge{\boxed{72}}$

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

First, find the total number of apples. $6*1200=7200$

Now, multiply this by the probability of picking a rotten apple, which is $\frac{1}{100}$ . This is also the same as dividing by $100$ , or moving the decimal point two places to the left. $7200*\frac{1}{100}=72$

This means that based on the probability given, $72$ rotten apples will be picked.

Which property was used to solve the given inequality?

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Subtraction Property of Inequality is used to solve the given inequality

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given inequality is:

$y + 8 < - 8$

To solve the inequality, subtract 8 on both sides,

We know that,

Adding or subtracting the same quantity from both sides of an inequality leaves the inequality symbol unchanged

Also, by Subtraction Property of Inequality,

If you minus a number from one side of an inequality, you have to minus that same number from the other side of the inequality as well

$y + 8 < - 8\\\\\text{Subtract 8 from both sides of inequality }\\\\y + 8 - 8 < -8 - 8\\\\simplify,\\\\y$

Thus, Subtraction Property of Inequality is used

Whats the radius for the circle? x^2+2x+y^2+4y-6=0

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

r = $\sqrt{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to complete the square for both parts of the equation

First though we can add the 6 to the other side so we have x² + 2x + y² + 4y = 6

So first we can complete the square for x² + 2x

To do so we need to use $(\frac{b}{2} )^{2}$ to figure out the number we need to add to both sides

In this case our b is 2, so substituting this in we get $(\frac{2}{2} )^{2} =(1)^{2} =1$

Here we add 1 to both sides and now we have x² + 2x + 1 + y² + 4y = 6 + 1

Now we can follow the same steps to complete the square for y² + 4y

Here our b is 4, so substituting this in we get $(\frac{4}{2} )^{2}=(2)^{2} =4$

Now we add 4 to both sides and now we have x² + 2x + 1 + y² + 4y + 4 = 6 + 1 + 4

Now condensing everything we have (x + 1)² + (y + 2)² = 11

The formula for a circle is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

In our equation we have r² = 11

To find the radius we need to take the square root of both sides $\sqrt{r^{2}} =\sqrt{11}$ to get r = $\sqrt{11}$

Atriangle was translated 4 units down.

loris [4]

Answer:

Idk if this is right but I think it's The transformed shaped shifted 7 units to the right so add 7 to x and it shifted 6 units down so subtract 6 from y.

The answer is (x,y) = (x+7) (y-6)

Hope this helps!!!?
