P = 2a + b
10= 2a + 3
2a = 10-3
a = 7/2 = 3.5


Therefore, numerical value of a is 3.5

What two partial products would you add to find 513 x 46
Afina-wow [57]
First, let me do the Mathematical part of that, and then I shall explain the theory behind it.

Mathematical part:
We are going to multiply 513 with 46. So the two partial products that we are going to choose are 40 and 6.

Multiply 513 with 6 first.

    513
    x46
--------------------------
      18 (as 6*3 = 18)
      60 (as 6*10 = 60; In 513, the digit at tenths place is 1, so 1*10=10)
  3000 (as 6*500 = 3000; In 513, 5 is at hundredth place, so 5*100=500)
    120 (as 40*3 = 120; since 4 is at the tenth place, so 4*10=40)
    400 (as 40*10 = 400)
20000 (as 40*500 = 20000)
--------------------------
23598 (Add all of them)


Theory:
As you can see above that we have chosen the two partial products individually which are 6 and 40. Since 4 in 46 is in tenth place, we have to consider it 40 (since 4*10 = 40). One by one, we first multiply 6 with 513. Then we move to the tenth place, and multiply 513 with 40. At the end, we have added all the results we found after multiplication.

Check: If we check the multiplication result by using the calculator, we would get the same result (23598).

Another Method (instant):
513 * (40+6) = (513*40) + (513*6) = 23598.

A 3” x 5” photo is enlarged so that the length of the new photo is 7 inches. Find the width of the new photo.. a. 4.20 inches. c
Andrej [43]
As far as the old dimensions of the photo are concerned,
Width of the photo = 3"
Length of the photo = 5"
New length of the photo = 7 inches
Let us assume the new width of the photo = x inches
Then
3/5 = x/7
5x = 7 * 3
5x = 21
x = 21/5
   = 4.20 inches
So the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option. I hope that the answer has come to your help.

Answer:

\dfrac{a}{b}=0.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

If two equations a_1x+b_1y+c_1=0 and a_2x+b_2y+c_2=0 has infinitely many solutions, then

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{b_1}{b_2}=\dfrac{c_1}{c_2}

The given equations are

ax+by=10

3x+4y=20

It is given that the above system of equations has infinitely many solutions. So,

\dfrac{a}{3}=\dfrac{b}{4}=\dfrac{10}{20}

\dfrac{a}{3}=\dfrac{b}{4}=\dfrac{1}{2}

Now,

\dfrac{a}{3}=\dfrac{1}{2} and \dfrac{b}{4}=\dfrac{1}{2}

a=\dfrac{3}{2} and b=\dfrac{4}{2}

a=1.5 and b=2

So, a=1.5 and b=2.

Now,

\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{1.5}{2}=0.75

Therefore, \dfrac{a}{b}=0.75.
