x = 52

let x be the angle then $\frac{1}{2}$ (180 - x ) represents one half of the supplement of the angle and

2( 90 - x ) - 12 represents 12 less than twice the complement of the angle

equating these 2 expressions

$\frac{1}{2}$ (180 - x ) = 2(90 - x ) -12

distribute brackets on both sides

90 - $\frac{1}{2}$ x = 180 - 2x - 12 = 168 - 2x

add 2x to both sides

90 + $\frac{3}{2}$ x = 168 → ( subtract 90 from both sides )

$\frac{3}{2}$ x = 78

multiply both sides by 2 and divide by 3

x = 52

1. an alloy contains zinc and copper in the ratio of 7:9 find weight of copper of it had 31.5 kgs of zinc.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question (1). An alloy contains zinc and copper in the ratio of 7 : 9.

If the weight of an alloy = x kgs

Then weight of copper = $\frac{9}{7+9}\times (x)$

= $\frac{9}{16}\times (x)$

And the weight of zinc = $\frac{7}{7+9}\times (x)$

= $\frac{7}{16}\times (x)$

If the weight of zinc = 31.5 kg

31.5 = $\frac{7}{16}\times (x)$

x = $\frac{16\times 31.5}{7}$

x = 72 kgs

Therefore, weight of copper = $\frac{9}{16}\times (72)$

= 40.5 kgs

2). i). 2 : 3 = $\frac{2}{3}$

4 : 5 = $\frac{4}{5}$

Now we will equalize the denominators of each fraction to compare the ratios.

$\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{5}{5}$ = $\frac{10}{15}$

$\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{3}{3}=\frac{12}{15}$

Since, $\frac{12}{15}>\frac{10}{15}$

Therefore, 4 : 5 > 2 : 3

ii). 11 : 19 = $\frac{11}{19}$

19 : 21 = $\frac{19}{21}$

By equalizing denominators of the given fractions,

$\frac{11}{19}\times \frac{21}{21}=\frac{231}{399}$

And $\frac{19}{21}\times \frac{19}{19}=\frac{361}{399}$

Since, $\frac{361}{399}>\frac{231}{399}$

Therefore, 19 : 21 > 11 : 19

iii). $\frac{1}{2}:\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{3}{1}$

$=\frac{3}{2}$

$\frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{4}{1}$

= $\frac{4}{3}$

Now we equalize the denominators of the fractions,

$\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{3}{3}=\frac{9}{6}$

And $\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{2}{2}=\frac{8}{6}$

Since $\frac{9}{6}>\frac{8}{6}$

Therefore, $\frac{1}{2}:\frac{1}{3}>\frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{4}$ will be the answer.

IV). $1\frac{1}{5}:1\frac{1}{3}=\frac{6}{5}:\frac{4}{3}$

$=\frac{6}{5}\times \frac{3}{4}$

$=\frac{18}{20}$

$=\frac{9}{10}$

Similarly, $\frac{2}{5}:\frac{3}{2}=\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{2}{3}$

$=\frac{4}{15}$

By equalizing the denominators,

$\frac{9}{10}\times \frac{30}{30}=\frac{270}{300}$

Similarly, $\frac{4}{15}\times \frac{20}{20}=\frac{80}{300}$

Since $\frac{270}{300}>\frac{80}{300}$

Therefore, $1\frac{1}{5}:1\frac{1}{3}>\frac{2}{5}:\frac{3}{2}$

V). If a : b = 6 : 5

$\frac{a}{b}=\frac{6}{5}$

$=\frac{6}{5}\times \frac{2}{2}$

$=\frac{12}{10}$

And b : c = 10 : 9

$\frac{b}{c}=\frac{10}{9}$

Since a : b = 12 : 10

And b : c = 10 : 9

Since b = 10 is common in both the ratios,

Therefore, combined form of the ratios will be,

a : b : c = 12 : 10 : 9

We will compare pairwise treatment with the help of t-statistic to find the best treatment.The t-statistic, which is used in statistics, measures how far a parameter's estimated value deviates from its hypothesized value relative to its standard error.We need to check if the treatments are effective in curing phobia.

First, we must determine whether there is a relationship between the type of treatment used and the final result (cure or not cure). We may examine this using the Chi-square test of association.In the second phase, we must determine if all therapies are the same or different if the alternative hypothesis—that is, whether there exists any kind of link between therapy and cure—is accepted.

We must perform a One-way ANOVA for the treatments in this case, assuming that all treatments are equal. If the null hypothesis is rejected in this instance, then the treatments differ. then, we go to step three.We will compare pairwise treatment with the help of t-statistic to find the best treatment.
