If 3/p = 6 and 3/q = 15 then p - q =?

Mathematics

Sphinxa [80]3 years ago

Answer:

0.3 or 3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

If \frac{3}{p} = 6, then p must be 0.5 (since 3/[1/2] is also 3x2).

If \frac{3}{q} = 15, then q must be 0.2 (since 3/[1/5] is also 3x5).

p - q would be 0.5 - 0.2, which means the final answer is 0.3 (3/10).

A problem states: "There are 2 more horses than cows in a field. There are 15 animals in the field in all. How many horses are t
mash [69]
Let h =  the number of horses in the field
Let c =  number of cows in the field

There are 2 more horses than cows in the field. Therefore
h = c + 2
 or
 c = h - 2               (1)

There are 15  animals in the field. Therefore
h + c = 15              (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
h + (h - 2) = 15
2h - 2 = 15

Answer:
The correct equation is 
2h - 2 = 15

There are 26 prize tickets in a bowl,labeled A to Z. What is the probability that a prize ticket with a vowel will be chosen,not
labwork [276]

Answer:

3.1%, dependent event

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that vowel are 5, it is from A, E, I, O, U therefore the probability of drawing a vowel is:

5/26

since there are a total of 26 options to choose from. Then, when selecting that, we are left with 25 options and 4 vowels, therefore the probability would be:

4/25

Therefore the final probability is:

5/26 * (4/25) = 0.031

In other words, selecting a vowel and then another (without replacement) the probability is 3.1%

The events are dependent, since the first event affects the second event, since the number of vowels and the number of total options are reduced.
