Answer:

(1) The required ratio of spirit to varnish is 1:3.

(2) You need 80 ml of mineral spirit.

(3) The ratio of tapestries' heights to width is 3:2.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) If you need to mix 25% mineral spirit to the varnish, then the solution would contain 25% mineral spirit and 75% varnish.

So, \frac{spirit}{varnish}=\frac{25}{75}

                  =\frac{1}{3}

Thus, The required ratio of spirit to varnish is 1:3.

(2) If you use 240ml of varnish, then this quantity is 75% of the total solution or ration of varnish to the total solution will be 3:4.

Let x be the quantity of total solution.

Then, 240:x=3:4.

⇒\frac{240}{x}=\frac{3}{4}

⇒3x=240*4

⇒x=\frac{240*4}{3}

⇒x=320

That is, total solution is 320 ml.

Now, Spirit = Total solution - Varnish

⇒Spirit = 320ml-240ml

⇒Spirit = 80ml

Hence, if you use 240 ml of varnish, you need 80 ml of mineral spirit.

(3) Robison's tapestries all measure 1.5m long and 1m wide. First, we express dimensions in whole numbers by multiplying them by 10.

Then, dimensions are 15m long and 10m wide.

Now, Height : Width = 15:10

⇒\frac{Height}{Width} =\frac{15}{10}

⇒\frac{Height}{Width} =\frac{3}{2}

Hence, the ratio of tapestries' heights to width is 3:2.

Rita paid $82 for 5 trees and 1 shrub. Lilly bought 2 trees and 1 shrub for $37. Find the cost per tree and the cost per shrub.
N76 [4]

Answer:

trees cost $15

Shrub cost $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Rita paid $82 for 5 trees and 1 shrub

5x+y= 82---------1

Lilly bought 2 trees and 1 shrub for $37

2x+y= 37----------2

from 1

y= 82-5x

put the value of y in 2

2x+82-5x= 37

2x-5x= 37-82

-3x=-45

x= 45/3

x=$15

put the value of x in 1

5(x)+y= 82

5*15+y=82

75+y=82

y=82-75

y=$7

Hence, trees cost $15

Shrub cost $7

Answer:

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

Here is a specific example:

5x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

In other words:

You have zero on the right.

On the left, you have the powers of “x” in descending order.
