Answer:

money saved by james = 30/2 = 15

equation used

money with James  = 3/4 (money with sister)

x/2 + 30 =3/4( x + 30 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let money saved by sister be x

given

James has saved half the amount of money as his sister has saved.

Money saved by James = x/2

Total money saved by both of them = x + x/2

If they both save 30 more

Then

money with sister = x + 30

money with james = x/2 + 30

given that If they both save 30 more, james will have saved 3/4 as much as her sister

thus,

money with james  = 3/4 (money with sister)

x/2 + 30 =3/4( x + 30 )

=> 4(x+30*2) /2 = 3x+90

=> 2x + 120 = 3x + 90

=> 3x-2x = 120-90

=> x = 30

Thus,

money saved by james = 30/2 = 15

equation used

money with james  = 3/4 (money with sister)

x/2 + 30 =3/4( x + 30 )

Handedness: 18 left-handed
guapka [62]

Answer:

Let x be the number of left handed female students and let y be the number of left handed male students.

Then the number of right handed female students will be 5x and the number of right handed male students will be 9y. Since the total number of left handed students is 18 and the total number of right handed students is 122, the following system of equations must be satisfied.

x+y=18 and 5x+9y=122

Solving this system gives x=10 and y=8.

Thus, 50 of the 122 right handed students are female. Therefore, the probability that a right handed student selected at random is female is   the fraction  50/122

which to the nearest thousandth is 0.410.
