Answer: x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
x tetras
3 goldfish
5 platies.
the total number of fishh in the bowl is x + 3 + 5
The probability of removing a gold fish is equal to the number of gold fish divided by the total number of fish, this is:
p = 3/(x + 3 + 5) = 1/3
3 = (1/3)(x + 3 + 5) = x/3 + 1 + 5/3
9 = x + 3 + 5
x = 9 - 8 = 1
then wemust have that x = 1
because 1 + 3 + 5 = 9
and 3/9 = 1/3
Answer: 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
D. cosine
Step-by-step explanation:
As it can be seen in the figure, the triangle ABC is a right-angled triangle with Angle C = 90 degree.
In a right angle triangle, there is a formula as following:
<em>cosine (of an acute angle) = length of adjacent side/ length of hypotenuse</em>
In the figure, the point of angle B and length of hypotenuse AB are given.
We have to calculate x - length of the given side. As BC is the adjacent side of angle B
=> we can use the above formula to calculate x
So that we can use cosine
Answer:
12 sapphires
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the number of sapphires x. This means the number of rubies is the total number of gems minus x, or 17-x.
# of Sapphires: x
# of Rubies:17-x
A sapphire is worth 5 (gold coins) each, and a ruby is worth 8.
We also know the total amount of money is 100 coins, so
5*x+8*(17-x)=100
5x+136-8x=100
-3x=-36
x=12
Remember:
# of Sapphires: x
# of Rubies:17-x
...so Lara found 12 sapphires and 17-12=5 rubies.
Step-by-step explanation:
dividing every number by 10.
100:15:50
dividing every number by 5.
20:3:10.
this is the lowest term.
hope this helps you.
