Elenna [48]3 years ago

Answer:

Number of trucks = 24

Number of SUVs = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

The ratio of cars to trucks is 9:4

The total ratio of cars to trucks is

9+4 = 13

Let x = sum of cars and trucks.

There are 54 cars. Therefore,

x = 54 + t trucks

Number of cars = ratio of cars/ total ratio × sum of cars and trucks. This means,

54 = 9/13 × x

9x / 13 = 54

9x = 13 × 54

9x = 702

x = 702 / 9 = 78

x = 54 + t trucks = number of trucks = 78 = 54 + t trucks

t trucks = 78 - 54 = 24

Number of trucks = 24

B)

The ratio of trucks to SUVs is 12:21

The total ratio of cars to trucks is

12 + 21 = 33

Let y = sum of trucks and SUVs

There are 24 trucks. Therefore,

x = 24 + s SUVs

Number of trucks = ratio of trucks / total ratio × sum of trucks and SUVs. This means,

24 = 12 / 33 × y

12y / 33 = 24

12y = 24 × 33

12y = 792

y = 792 / 12 = 66

y = 24 + s SUVs

66 = 24 + s SUVs

s SUVs = 66 - 24 = 42

Number of SUVs = 24

Answer:

Slope: \frac{3}{5}

Y-Intercept: (0,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find the slope, we need to have the equation in slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b. In this case, our equation is already in this form. m is what your slope is. In this case, our

2. To find the y-intercept we look at value b that is in y=mx+b. In this case, b is -5. So, our ordered pair is (0,-5).

Okay so this problem basically is saying if the value is 90000 and per every 1000 she has to pay 31$ in tax

So first divide $90,000 by $1,000 you should get 90
Now you can do 90 times $31 to find how much tax she will have to pay which equals $2,790 tax total

there are 30 flowers in a vase 2.5 of flowers are roses. 1/6 of the flowers are daisies. the rest of the flowers are carnations.
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

13 carnations

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you meant 2/5 because 2.5 would mean there are more roses in the vase than there are flowers in the vase, heres how to solve this.

Understanding

Each fraction is referring to "flowers" not "remaining flowers" and as such each time we will be comparing to the total.

2/5 of the total flowers are roses. This is written in words as for every 5 flowers two are roses, which means we will multiply 2 by how many sets of five we have in 30 flowers.

(30/5) x 2 =

(6) x 2 = 12 roses

Though with fractions its written as 30/1*2/5 which is the same as (30 x 2)/5

60/5 = 12 roses

Following this logic for every 6 flowers one is a daisy.

30/1 * 1/6 = (30 x 1)/6 = 30/6 = 5 daisies

Because the rest are carnations we want to subtract the amount of daisies and roses from the total amount of flowers to find the remaining flowers.

30 - 5 - 12 = 13 carnations

Hope this helps,
