42 drank iced tea

60 drank either water or lemonade

So the ratio would be 42:60 or 7/10 as a fraction.

So D is the correct answer

Answer:

D. \frac{7}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of adults who drank iced tea = 42,

Bottled water = 24,

And, Lemonde = 36,

Thus, the total number of adults who drank either water or lemonade = 24 + 36 = 60

Hence, the ratio of adults who drank drank iced tea and who drank either water or lemonade

=\frac{\text{Adults who drank iced tea}}{\text{Adults who drank either water or lemonade}}

=\frac{42}{60}

Since, the HCF(42,60) = 6,

=\frac{42\div 6}{60\div 6}

=\frac{7}{10}

Option 'D' is correct.

D)) The ratio of the monthly income and expenditure of Sunayana is 5 : 3. If she
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Sunayana's income is ₹25000 and expenditures are ₹15000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let i denote the monthly income and e denote the expenditures.

We know that the ratio of the monthly income to expenditure is 5:3. So, we can write the following proportion:  

\frac{i}{e}=\frac{5}{3}

Let's multiply both sides by e. This yields:

i=\frac{5}{3}e

We know that when the income is <em>increased</em> by 5000 and the expenditures are <em>decreased </em>by 3000, the new ratio is 5:2. So, we can write the following proportion:

\frac{i+5000}{e-3000}=\frac{5}{2}

Let's multiply both sides by (e-3000):

i+5000=\frac{5}{2}(e-3000)

Since we know that i=\frac{5}{3}e, substitute:

\frac{5}{3}e+5000=\frac{5}{2}(e-3000)

So, let's solve for the expenditures. Distribute the right:

\frac{5}{3}e+5000=\frac{5}{2}e-7500

Subtract \frac{5}{2}e from both sides:

-\frac{5}{6}e+5000=-7500

Subtract 5000 from both sides:

-\frac{5}{6}e=-12500

Multiply both sides by -6/5. So, the expenditures are:

e=\text{Rs }15000

We can use the original ratio to find Sunayana's income:

i=\frac{5}{3}e

Substitute 15000 for e. Evaluate:

i=\frac{5}{3}(15000)=\text{Rs }25000

So, Sunayana's income is ₹25000 and expenditures are ₹15000.

And we're done!

Edit: Wrong currency, sorry about that!

Find the value of x for which the graph of y = 3x^2 - 8x + 7 achieves its minimum y-value.​
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

<h3>The y value achieves its minimum at x = 4/3</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the graph of y to be 3x² - 8x + 7, to get the value of x for which the graph function achieves its minimum y value, we need to find its turning point first.

At the turning point, dy/dx = 0

Given y = 3x² - 8x + 7

\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x-8\\ at\ turning\ point\ 6x-8 = 0

6x = 8\\x = \frac{8}{6}\\ x =\frac{4}{3}

The y value achieves its minimum at x = 4/3
