There are several information's already given in the question. Lat us first write them down and then go for solving the problem.
Total number of pupil <span>in Secondary one = 225
Let us assume the number of pupil who do not pay the school fees through GIRO scheme = x
Then
Number </span>of pupil who pay the school fees through GIRO scheme = 14x
So
x + 14x = 225
15x = 225
x = 15
From the above deduction, it can be concluded that 15 pupil did not join the scheme.
Answer: QN = 12
Step-by-step explanation: This quadrilateral is a paralelogram because its 2 opposite sides (NP and MQ) are parallel and the other 2 (MN and PQ) are congruent.
In paralelogram, diagonals bisect each other, which means QR = RN.
If QR = RN:
QR = 6
Then,
QN = QR + RN
QN = 6 + 6
QN = 12
<u>The diagonal QN of quadrilateral MNPQ is </u><u>QN = 12</u><u>.</u>
Answer:
Time required by Ben was 12 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Time Required for Fred = 16 mins
Ben completed his run in 3/4 of the amount of time of Freds run.
We need to find the time required by Ben.
Now Given that;
Ben completed his run in 3/4 of the amount of time of Freds run.
It means that time required by Ben is equal to 3/4 times time required by Fred.
Time required by Ben = 
Time required by Ben = 
Hence Time required by Ben was 12 minutes.
Answer:
Adam needs 9/8 of a 5oz serving of shrimps (which equals to 5.625 oz) and 5/8 of a cup of brown rice (which is around 10 tablespoons).
Explanation:
You are given:
every serving of shrimp contains 2g of fat and 5mg of iron;
every serving of rice contains 6g of fat and 7mg of iron;
each meal should have 6g of total fat and 10mg of total iron.
You need to set a system of equation: let's call
s = quantity of shrimps
r = quantity of rice
The equation for the total fat will be: the quantity of fat in the serving of shrimps plus the quantity of fat in the serving of rice must be equal to 6g
2s + 6r = 6 (1)
Similarily:
the quantity of iron in the serving of shrimps plus the quantity of iron in the serving of rice must be equal to 10g
5s + 7r = 10 (2)
In order to solve the system, solve for s in equation (1):
s = (6-6r)/2 = 3 - 3r (3)
Substitute in equation (2):
5(3 - 3r) + 7r = 10
and solve for r:
15 - 15r + 7r = 10
8r = 5
r = 5/8
Substitute the value of r in equation (3):
s = 3 - 3×5/8 = 9/8
Therefore Adam would need 9/8 of a 5oz serving of shrimps and 5/8 of a 1 cup of brown rice for each meal.
