An animator draws 120 cels to make a 5 seconds of a 12-second sequence of a film. How many more cels does she need to draw to co

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

She needs 168 more cels to draw to complete the film sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

120 Cells in 5 seconds

You want 12 seconds.

Ratio (Proportion)

120:5

Lets find the "unit rate" of the proportion.

120/5 = 24

So the unit ratio is 24:1

Now, we can deduce to it being:

120:5

240:10

264:11

288:12

She has 120 done.

So, 288-120 = 168.

She needs 168 more cels to draw to complete the film sequence

A positive number is 3 times another number.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The smaller number can be 8 or $\frac{1}{5}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

let the larger number is x and the smaller number is y

A positive number is 3 times another number.

$3y=x$

If we add 2 to the larger and 5 to the smaller, then one of them becomes 2 times the other.

Case I: If 2nd number is 2 times to the first number.

$x+2=2(y+5)$

Substitute the value of x.

$3y+2=2y+10$

$y=8$

Now substitute the value of y in $3y=x$

$3(8)=x$

$x=24$

Therefore, the smaller number is 8.

Case II: If 1st number is 2 times to the second number.

$2(x+2)=y+5$

Substitute the value of x.

$2(3y+2)=y+5$

$6y+4=y+5$

$5y=1$

$y=\frac{1}{5}$

Therefore, the smaller number is $\frac{1}{5}$ .
