Answer:

Plant C is 0.64 times as tall as Plant B

Plant C is 2.4 inches shorter than Plant B

Step-by-step explanation:

Plant B is 6 2/3 inches tall. Plant B is 20/3 inches tall.

Plant C 4 4/15 inches tall. Plant C is 64/15 inches tall.

a.) Plant C is shorter than Plant B $= \frac{64}{15} \times \frac{1}{\frac{20}{3} } = \frac{64}{15} \times\frac{3}{20} = \frac{16}{25}$ = 0.64 times.

b.) Plant C is shorter than Plant B by = $\frac{20}{3} - \frac{64}{15} = \frac{100}{15} - \frac{64}{15} = \frac{100 -64}{15} = \frac{36}{15} = 2\frac{2}{5} = 2.4$ inches

What is the ratio of the two values and what new value do they produce? $280 in 7m

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

The ratio between two values A and B is just the quotient between these two values:

ratio = A/B

a) $280 in 7m

Here the ratio is:

$280/7m = $40/m

This also can be read as:

$40 per meter.

b) 105 miles in 2 hours

Here the ratio is:

105mi/2h = 52.5 mi/h

This also can be read as:

52.5 miles per hour

c) $33 for 5lb

The ratio is:

$33/5lb = $6.6/lb

This can be read as:

$6.6 per pound.

d) 50 pages in 2 hours

the ratio is:

(50 pages)/2h = 25 pages/h

this can be read as:

25 pages per hour.

Ada, Betty, Chris and David have $45 in total Ada gota 52 fromBetty, Chris tripleshis money and Davids money is cut by hall four

andrezito [222]

Using a system of equations, it is found that initially Ada has $0.385.

For the system, we have that the variables are:

x is Ada's amount.
y is Betty's amount.
z is Chris's amount.
w is David's amount.

$45 total, hence:

$x + y + z + w = 45$

Ada gets 2 from Betty, hence:

$x + 2 = y - 2$

$x = y - 4$

$y = x + 4$

Chris triples his money and David's money is cut by half four of them have the same amount, hence:

$x + 4 = y = 3z = \frac{w}{2}$

Then:

$3z = x + 4$

$z = \frac{x + 4}{3}$

$x + 4 = \frac{w}{2}$

$w = 2x + 8$

Solving for w, we find Ada's initial amount.

$x + y + z + w = 45$

$x + x + 4 + \frac{x + 4}{3} + 2x + 8 = 45$

$4x + 12 + \frac{x + 4}{3} = 45$

$12x + 36 + x + 4 = 45$

$13x = 5$

$x = \frac{5}{13}$

$x = 0.385$

Initially, Ada has $0.385.
