Mathematics

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that a pet shop sells guinea pigs and goldfish and that the ratio of guinea pigs to goldfish is 20:28.

a) Give this ratio in its simplest form.

The ratio of guinea pigs to goldfish is 20:28. The highest common factor to 20 and 28 is 4. Therefore 20 = 4 × 5 and 28 = 4 × 7. So, the ratio in its simplest form will be 5:7.

b. The shop has a total of 120 guinea pigs and fish. Work out the number of guinea pigs the shop has.

The ratio of guinea pig and goldfish is 5:7. If the shop has a total of 120 guinea pigs and fish, the number of guinea pigs the shop has will be:

= 5/12 × 120

= 5 × 10

= 50 guinea pigs

The simplified polynomial that represents how many more economy cars are rented in w weeks than full-size cars is 53 - w.

<h3>Linear equation:</h3>

Linear equation is an equation in which the highest power of the variable is equals to one.

Therefore, the number of economy-size cars rented in w weeks is represented as follows:

  • 152 + 3w

The number of full-size cars rented in w weeks is represented as follows:

  • 99 + 2w

where

w = number of weeks

A  simplified polynomial that represents how many more economy cars are rented in w weeks than full-size cars is as follows:

  • 152 + 3w - (99 + 2w)
  • 152 + 3w - 99 - 2w
  • 53 - w

10. If log10x = 1 + a and log10y = 1 – a, show that xy = 100.<br> How?
gregori [183]

Step-by-step explanation:

log x = 1 + a

a = log x - 1

log y = 1 - a

a = 1 - log y

So

log x - 1 = 1 - log y

log x + log y = 2

log (xy) = 2

xy = 100
