Mathematics

Anestetic [448]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

60 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

The total ratio = 2 + 2 +5 = 9

Let x = total sweets shared

Dan got 2/9 of x. This is equal to 24

the equation for this is - \frac{2}{9} × x = 24

to solve for x, divide both sides by \frac{9}{2}

x = 108 = total sweet shared

sweets malachy got = \frac{5}9} x 108 = 60 sweets

Please help me with these two questions I am having trouble
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

1. 8820.26 yds^2

2. 101.265 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

For both problems you need to use the equation π*r^2 which is the area of a circle and where r is the radius of the circle. The radius is also equal to 1/2 the diameter so using this we can figure out the are of the first circle

For the second problem we have to find the area of the circle with and without the sidewalk around it and subtract them from each other

The first step to solve the equation StartFraction x over 4 EndFraction minus three-fourths = 16 is shown below. StartFraction x
artcher [175]

Answer:

Addition property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

\dfrac{x}{4}-\dfrac{3}{4}=16

We need to find the first step to solve this expression.

For this, we add 3/4 to both sides of the equation i.e.

\dfrac{x}{4}-\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{3}{4}=16+\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\\dfrac{x}{4}=16+\dfrac{3}{4}

So, we have used the addition property of equality.

A sum of Rs 135 is divided into two parts. If the greater part exceeds the smaller by Rs 25,find the parts of the sum.
Alchen [17]

The parts of the sum are 55 and 80.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

'x' be the smaller part and

'y' be the greater part of the number.

The sum is x+y = 135.   --------(1)

The greater part y = x+25.  ---------(2)

Substitute (2) in (1),

⇒ x+(x+25) = 135

⇒ 2x+25 = 135

⇒ 2x = 110

⇒ x= 110/2

x = 55

The smaller part is 55.

Substitute x=55 in (2)

y = 55+25 = 80

The greater part is 80.
