It would be 150 because you need to divide 200 by 4 and get 50. Then multiply 50 times 3 to get 150.

Answer:

Since there are 4 green bars for every 3 red bars and we are trying to find the number of red bars if there are 200 green bars, we can create the ratio:

4 x : 3 y

Where x is equal to the number of green bars and y is the number of red bars.

We know the number of green bars is equal to 200, so we can divide it by 4, giving us:

200 /4=50

Then we can solve for y , the number of red bars.

// Multiple y by 50

3 ⋅ 50 = 150

So for every 4 green bars, there are 3 red bars.

For every 200 green bars, there are 150 red bars

alina1380 [7]

Let x be the number of treats bought
Let y be the pounds of food bought

25= 2y+x

Given that she has buys 9 pounds of dog food:

25= 2(9)+x
25=18 +x
25-18 =x
7=x

With the money she has left over, she can buy 7 treats.

How would I find all real solutions in x^4/3 -10^2/3 +21= 0

Oxana [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation looks complicated.We have to make it easier

let's say x^2/3 = t and x^4/3 = t^2

t^2-10t+21=0 [ we can factorize this equation as a (t-3)(t-7) ]

(t-3)(t-7)=0 [ that means , t can be 3 or 7 ]

But don't forget we have to find x not t so,

t=x^2/3=3 ∛ x^2 = 3 x^2 = 9 x=3 or x= -3

t=x^2/3=7 ∛x^2 = 7 x^2 = 343 x ~18.5 or x ~ -18.5

A man shares a $1,200,00 inheritance between his 3 sons in ratio 1: 3: 6. Calculate the difference between the largest share and

soldi70 [24.7K]

A man's inheritance money = $1200

Given :

He shared his inheritance between his 3 sons in the ratio 1:3:6

Then, the money the first son got :

$= \tt \frac{1}{10} \: of \: 1200$

$=\tt \frac{1}{10} \times 1200$

$=\tt \frac{1 \times 120}{10}$

$= \tt \frac{1200}{10}$

$\color{plum} =\tt\$ \: 120$

▪︎Thus, the first son inherited $120.

Money the second son got :

$= \tt \frac{3}{10} \: of \: 1200$

$= \tt \frac{3}{10} \times 1200$

$=\tt \frac{3 \times 1200}{10}$

$= \tt \frac{3600}{10}$

$\color{plum} =\tt \$360$

▪︎Thus, the second son inherited $360.

Money the third son got :

$=\tt \frac{6}{10} \: of \: 1200$

$=\tt \frac{6}{10} \times 1200$

$= \tt \frac{6 \times 1200}{10}$

$= \tt \frac{7200}{10}$

$\color{plum} = \tt\$720$

▪︎Thus, the third son inherited $720.

We know that :

The largest share = $720

The smallest share = $120

Difference between the largest and smallest share :

$= \tt720 - 120$

$\color{hotpink}\tt = 600$

<h3> ●=> Therefore :</h3>

▪︎The difference between the largest and smallest share = 600

What single decimal multiplier would you use to increase by 18% followed by a 12% decrease?

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The single decimal multiplier used to increase by 18% followed by a 12% decrease is 0.21.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the number

As first the number has to be increased by 18%

Step 1: write the percentage '18%' in decimal form

18% = 0.18

Step 2: For percentage increases: add the decimal to 1

1 + 0.18 = 1.18

Step 3: Multiply the number x by the multiplier, found in Step 2

x × 1.18 = 1.18x

NEXT WE HAVE TO DECREASE 1.18x by 12%

Apply the same method but with a number 1.18x

Write the percentage '12%' in decimal form

12% = 0.12

For percentage decreases: subtract the decimal to 1

1 - 0.18 = 0.18

Multiply the number 1.18x by the multiplier, found in Previous step

1.18x × 0.18 = 0.21x

Therefore, the single decimal multiplier used to increase by 18% followed by a 12% decrease is 0.21.
