Split 2.50 into the ratio 3 : 2

1 answer:

7 0

The number that needs to be split as per the question = 2.50
The ratio in which the number needs to be split = 3:2
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
3x + 2x = 2.50
5x = 2.50
x = 2.50/5
= 0.50
Then
The ratio in which the number 2.50 can be divided = 3 * 0.5: 2 * 0.5
= 1.5:1
So from the above deduction, we can conclude that the number 25 can be split in the ratio 1.5:1.

There is no horizontal asymptote because the numerator has a higher exponent. It has a slant asymptote.

using the two points find the slope then write the equation in slope intercept form AND standard form. (-6, 4) and (0, 3)

Paraphin [41]

so to find the slope we do y2- y1/ x2-x1

plug in the coordinates: (-6,4) (0,3)

3-4/ 0--6

3-4/0+6

= -1/6

Then using the formula of slop intercept form: y=mx+b........ use one of the coordinates to plug in

4= -1/6x+b...... multiply -6/1 on both sides of equation ( you do this so -1/6 and -6/1 can cancel out)

-24=b........ Use b to plug in y=mx+b---------> y= -1/6x-24

Calculate the area of this trapezium.<br> 7.9 cm<br> 6.2 cm<br> 10.8 cm

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

A = 57.97 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a trapezium is calculated as

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ h (a + b)

where h is the perpendicular height and a, b the parallel bases

Here h = 6.2, a = 10.8 and b = 7.9, thus

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 6.2 × (10.8 + 7.9) = 3.1 × 18.7 = 57.97 cm²

Luisa is planning a bridal shower for her best friend. At the party, she wants to serve 3 beverages, 3 appetizers, and 3 dessert

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Luisa can pick the food and drinks to serve at the bridal shower in 15,615,600 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fundamental counting principle:

States that if there are p ways to do a thing, and q ways to do another thing, and these two things are independent, there are p*q ways to do both things.

Also

The order in which the food and drinks are chosen is not important, which means that the combinations formula is used to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
