How do you grow your own equations

Mathematics
1 answer:
natita [175]3 years ago
4 0
You can formulate your own equations by analyzing the given problem and its statements. You can do some illustrations so you can understand it better. Introduce some variables and the rest is algebra. For example:

An orange costs $2 while a banana costs $1.5. How many oranges and bananas do you have to buy such that the total cost would equal to $20. You bought a total of 12 fruits.

First, you have to introduce variables. Let 'x' be the number of oranges and 'y' be the number of bananas. One equation you can get from here is knowing the amount of total cost: 2x + 1.5y = 20. Then, the other equation would be knowing the amount of fruits: x+y=12. You have two unknowns and two equations. Hence, you can solve the problem. Solving them simultaneously, you would get that x=4 and y=8.

The number of students in Mrs. Patrick's piano class decreased by 15% in 2 years to 17 students. How many students did she have
guapka [62]

Answer:

20 students

Step-by-step explanation:

If the class decreased by 15%, the students that she has now (17) represents a percentaje of:

100% - 15% = 85%

so<u> the 17 students are 85% of what she had</u>:

Students         Percentage

      17          ⇒        85%

and we are looking for how many students she had 2 years ago, thus we are looking for the <u>100%</u> of students (the original number of studens). If we represent this number by x:

Students         Percentage

      17          ⇒        85%

      x          ⇒        100%

and we solve this problem using the <u>rule of three</u>: multiply the cross quantities on the table( 17 and 100) and then divide by the remaining amount (85):

x = 17*100/85

x = 1700/85

x=20

2 years ago she had 20 students

A game involves drawing a single card from a standard deck. One receives 60 cents for an ace, 30 cents for a king, and 5 cents f
professor190 [17]

Answer:

The expected game value is -1 cent

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the expected value of the game

We have 4 aces and 4 kings, including 26 red cards

The number of aces is 4

Probability of drawing an ace is 4/52 = 1/13

Probability of drawing a king is also 4/52 = 1/13

There are 26 red cards

The number of red cards that are neither ace nor king

There are 2 red aces and 2 red kings

So the number of cards that are red but are not

aces nor kings are 26-2-2 = 22

The probability of selecting this is 22/52 = 11/26

So the expected value is simply the probability multiplied by the amount

Thus, we have;

(60 * 1/13) + (30 * 1/13) + (5 * 11/26)

= 60/13 + 30/13 + 55/26

= (120 + 60 + 55)/26 = 9.038 cents which is approximately 9 cents

we subtract this from the 10 cents we are playing with, thus we are left with 9-10 = -1 cent
