A zoo has 2 male lions one sixth oh the lions are male lions how many lions are there at the zoo ?

1 answer:

7 0

It is important to go through details that are provided in the question. Based on those details the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Let us assume the number of lions at the zoo = x
Number of male lions in the zoo = 2
Then
(1/6) * x = 2
x/6 = 2
x = 2 * 6
= 12
So there are a total of 12 lions in the zoo. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. Using this method, it will be possible for you to do similar problems in future without requiring any help from outside. Only be careful about the calculation part.

By driving 8 mph faster than Bob, John can make a 230 mile trip in one half hour less. How fast does Bob drive on the trip? Roun

____ [38]

Answer: The speed of Bob is 56.8 km/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of Bob be 'x'.

Let the speed of John be 'x-8'.

Distance covered = 230 miles

time = $1\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}\ hr$

According to question, we get that

$\dfrac{230}{x}-\dfrac{230}{x+8}=\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\230\dfrac{x+8-x}{x(x+8)}=\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\\dfrac{230\times 8}{x^2+8x}=\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\\dfrac{1840}{x^2+8x}=\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\1840\times 2=3x^2+24x\\\\3680=3x^2+24x\\\\3x^2+24x-3680=0\\\\x\approx 56.8\ km/hr$

Hence, the speed of Bob is 56.8 km/hr.
