Answer:

Given  

if p:q=2/3:3 and p:r=3/4:1/2, calculate the ratio p:q:r giving your answer in its simplest form

We need to find the ratio p:q:r

Given p:q = 2/3 : 3 = 2/3 / 3  = 2/9

and p : r = 3/4 : 1/2 = 3/4 / 1/2  = 3/2  

Now p/q = 2/9 and p/r = 3/2

We need to make p equal numerators so we get

p/q = 2/9 x 3/3 = 6/27 and

p/r = 2/3 x 3/2 = 6/4

Therefore p : q : r = 6 : 27 : 4

A rectangular box has length x and width 3. The volume of the box is given by y = 3x(8 – x). The greatest x-intercept of the gra
CaHeK987 [17]

Consider rectangular box with

  • length x units (x≥0);
  • width 3 units;
  • height (8-x) units (8-x≥0, then x≤8).

The volume of the rectangular box can be calculated as

V_{box}=\text{length}\cdot \text{width}\cdot \text{height}.

In your case,  

V_{box}=3\cdot x\cdot (8-x).

Note that maximal possible value of the height can be 8 units (when x=0 - minimal possible length) and the minimal possible height can be 0 units (when x=8 - maximal possible length).

From the attached graph you can see that the greatest x-intercept is x=8, then the height will be minimal and lenght will be maximal.

Then the volume will be V=0 (minimal).

Answer: correct choices are B (the maximum possible length), C (the minimum possible height)

The rectangular field has a perimeter of 98 meters. The width of the perimeter is three times as much as five times the length.
White raven [17]

Answer:

a) x = 3.0625m

  y = 45.9375 m

b) A = 140.68359375 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length

Let y be the width

2x + 2y = 98

x + y = 49

y = 3(5x)

y = 15x

x + 15x = 49

16x = 49

x = 3.0625 m

y = 15(3.0625) = 45.9375

A = xy = 3.0625(45.9375) = 140.68359375

What is the value of (f*g)(-5)<br> f(x)=2x+1 ; g(x)=x^2
nikitadnepr [17]
F(-5) = 2(-5) + 1 = -9
g(-5) = (-5)^2 = 25

(f*g)(-5) = -9(25) = -225

Jeremi is interested in healthy living, fitness and nutrition. He wants to make sure sugar makes up less than 10% of his food ea
Yuri [45]
This is the concept of arithmetic:
fraction of:
Protein+healthy fats=1/2
carbohydrates=2/3×1/2=1/3
sugary treats=1-(1/3+1/2)= 1/6
thus the percentage of sugary treats in the current diet will be:
(fraction of sugary treats)×(percentage of the diet)
=1/6×10
=10/6
=1 2/3 %
