How do you know that 21 over 30 is greater than 2 over 3

Mathematics
1 answer:
Bond [772]3 years ago
7 0
The problem deals with fractions comparison, lets do it:
21/30 > 2/3
we begin solving:
21 > (2/3)*30
21 > 2*10
<span>21 > 20
</span>therefore the proposed inequality is true, <span>21/30 > 2/3

You can solve as well getting same denominator for both fractions and comparing directly, in this case we need to get 2/3 to be divided by 30:
2/3 = (10/10)(2/3) = 20/30
So we have:
</span><span>21/30 > 2/3
</span>which is equal to:
<span>21/30 > 20/30
</span>and we compare directly because both fractions are divided by the same number, and we can see that the inequality is true.

A student in Greece discovers a pottery bowl
finlep [7]

Answer:

The age of the pottery bowl to the nearest year is 15606 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial amount of C-14 in the bowl i.e. N_{0} = 100 and today (say after t years) the amount of C-14 in the bowl i.e. N = 21.

Therefore, from the given equation we can write  

21 = 100 e^{- 0.0001t} {Since, k is give to be 0.0001}

⇒ 0.21 = e^{- 0.0001t}

Now, taking ln on both sides we get

ln 0.21 = - 0.0001t (ln e) {Since, \ln a^{b} = b \ln a}

⇒ - 1.560647 = - 0.0001t  {We have ln e = 1}

⇒ t = 15606.47 years ≈ 15606 years  

Therefore, the age of the pottery bowl to the nearest year is 15606 years.(Answer)

Kabul’s bookshop marks up all books by 40 percent of their cost. The overhead rate is 16 percent of the selling price. What is t
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The net profit rate on the book is 5.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The marks up percentage of book = m = 40%

The overhead rate is 16% of selling price

The cost price of book = c.p = $18.10

Let The profit = $p

Let The selling price = s.p

<u>Now, According to question</u>

mark up percentage = \dfrac{s.p - c.p}{c.p}

I.e 40% =  \dfrac{s.p - 18.10}{18.10}

Or, \dfrac{40}{100} + 1 = \dfrac{s.p}{18.10}

Or, \dfrac{140}{100} =  \dfrac{s.p}{18.10}

Or, s. p = \dfrac{140\times 18.10}{100}

∴ s.p = $25.34

So, selling price of book = s.p = $25.34

Now, The overhead percentage = 16%

i.e overhead rate = \dfrac{\textrm estimated cost}{\textrm estimated total base unit}

Or, estimated cost = 16% × 25.34

I,e estimated cost = 0.16 × 25.34

∴ estimated cost = $4.05

Now,

Profit = selling price of book - estimated book cost

I.e p = $25.34 - $4.05

∴ p = $21.29

So, The profit rate% = \dfrac{\textrm profit}{\textrm estimated cost}

I.e The profit rate% = \dfrac{21.29}{4.05}

∴ profit rate %= 5.41

So, The profit rate = p = 5.41

Hence, The net profit rate on the book is 5.41  Answer

In a group of 42 students, 9 study both Art and Biology.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Answer:
The probability the student studies Art and
Biology is 0.2143.
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote the events as follows:
A = a students studies Art
B= a students studies Biology
The information provided is:
N = 42
n (An B) = 9
n (A' n B) = 10
n (A' n B') =7
Then the number of students who study Art
but not Biology is:
n(An B') = N -n (An B) -n (A' nB) - n (A'n B')
= 42 - 10 - 7 - 9
= 16
The number of students who study Art but
not Biology is 16.
Compute the probability the student studies
Art and Biology as follows:
P(ANB)
n(ANB)
= 0.2143
Thus, the probability the student studies Art
and Biology is 0.2143.
