<u>Answer:</u>

Garden A has 42 currant bushes before the transplant

<u>Explanation: </u>

Suppose garden A is x and garden B is y

Forming the linear equations

Garden A has  9 more currant bushes than garden B

Therefore

x=y+9 --------(1)

If 3 currant bushes are transplanted from Garden B to Garden A, then Garden A will have 1.5 times more currant bushes than Garden B.

When 3 currant bushes are transplanted then the new equation becomes

x=y+12--------(2)

Further after transplanting

x+3= 1.5y----------(3)

putting the value of y from equation 2 into equation 3

x+3 = 1.5(x-12)

x+3= 1.5x-18

x-1.5x=-18-3

-0.5x=-21

x=\frac{21\times 10}{5}

x=42

Hence garden A has 42 currant bushes before the transplant

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the original number of bushes in garden A

Let x-9 = the original number of bushes in garden B

x-9-3=x-12 = bushes in garden B after transplanting 3

x+3 = bushes in garden A after transplanting 3

x+3=1.5(x-12)

x+3=1.5x-18

0.5x=21

x=42

There were 42 current bushes in garden A

Answer:

D) 3768 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

No. of plates = 100

Diameter of each plate = 12inches

So, radius of each plate = 12 / 2 = 6 inches

So, circumference of each plate

= 2\pi \: r

= 2 × 3.14 × 6 inches

= 37.68 inches

Hence, circumference of 100 plates = 100 × 37.68 inches

= 3768 inches

Hence, <u>3768 inches</u> of gold trim is required (Ans)

Workout the probability that spinner A lands on 2 and spinner b does not land on b
zzz [600]

Spinner diagram isn't attached. A related spinner diagram has been attached below to provide an hypothetical solution to the problem

Answer:

4 / 15

Step-by-step explanation:

For the numbered spinner :

P(landing on 2) = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Total possible outcomes = (1, 2, 3) = 3

Required outcome = (1) = 1

P(landing on 2) = 1 /3

Lettered spinner :

P(does not land on b)

Total possible outcomes = (A, B, C, D, E)

Required outcome = (a, c, d, e)

P(does not land on b) = 4 / 5

Hence,

P(lands on 2, does not land on b) in this scenario is :

1/3 * 4/5 = 4 / 15

Kindly solve this question 6 too !!
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

~~~~~x = \dfrac{1}{2 - \dfrac 1{2-\dfrac{1}{2-x}}}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{1}{2 - \dfrac 1{\dfrac{4-2x-1}{2-x}}}\\\\\\\implies x= \dfrac{1}{2 - \dfrac{2-x}{3-2x}}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{6-4x-2+x}{3-2x}}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{3-2x}{4-3x}\\\\\\\implies 4x -3x^2 = 3-2x\\\\\\\implies 3x^2 -4x +3-2x = 0\\\\\\\implies 3x^2 -6x +3 = 0\\\\\\\implies 3(x^2 -2x +1) =0\\\\\\\implies x^2 -2x +1 = 0\\\\\\\implies (x-1)^2 = 0\\\\\\\implies x -1 = 0\\\\\\\implies x = 1
