Answer:

  4 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of numbers of students is ...

  hot dog : hamburger = 16 : 12 = 4 : 3

__

To reduce the ratio to lowest terms, remove the common factor of 4 from each number. 16 = 4·4; 12 = 4·3.

Answer:

The \: ratio \: is \: \: 4 :  3 \:i .e \:  \frac{4}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

number \: of \: students  \: who  \: chose \: \\   to \:  eat  \: a \:  hot  \: dog  \: is \: 16. \\ number \: of \: students  \: who  \: chose \: \\   to \:  eat  \: a \:  hamburger  \: is \: 12. \\

the \: ratio \: is \: number \: of \: students  \: who  \: chose \: \\   to \:  eat  \: a \:  hot  \: dog  \: \div \\ number \: of \: students  \: who  \: chose \: \\   to \:  eat  \: a \:  hamburger  \\ so \: the \: ratio \:is  \:  \frac{16}{12}  =  \frac{4}{3}

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Time taken n = 19 years (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount of car P = $27,500

Decrease rate r = 15% = 0.15

Final amount A = $1,254

Find:

Time taken n

Computation:

A = P[1-r]ⁿ

1,254 = 27,500[1-0.15]ⁿ

0.0456 = [0.85]ⁿ

Time taken n = 19 years (Approx)

What is the value, after 7 years, of a 2014 Ford Mustang that originally costs $25,000.00 if it depreciates at a rate of 8% per
Sholpan [36]
The value would be $14,000.

The formula we use for this is

A = p(1+r)ˣ, where p is the initial value, r is the percent of depreciation (as a decimal number) and x is the number of years.  Note that since it is depreciation, r will be a negative number.

A = 25000(1-0.08)⁷ = 13946.17 ≈ 14000
