A sum of money is divided among Khairul, Michael and Ethan in the ratio

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leto [7]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

$360

Step-by-step explanation:

The intial ratio of the sum shared between Khairul, Michael and Ethan is 6 : 4 : 5.

This would be 6x : 4x : 5x

Khairul gives $30 to Michael and $15.

The ratio is. Now;

(6x - 45) : (4x + 30) : (5x + 15)

We are told this is equal to the ratio 7:6:7

Thus;

((6x - 45) + (4x + 30))/(5x + 15) = (7 + 6)/7

(10x - 15)/(5x + 15) = 13/7

Factorize the left hand side;

5(2x - 3)/5(x + 3) = 13/7

5 will cancel out to get;

(2x - 3)/(x + 3) = 13/7

Cross multiply to get;

7(2x - 3) = 13(x + 3)

14x - 21 = 13x + 39

14x - 13x = 39 + 21

x = 60

Amount Khairul had initially was denoted as 6x.

Thus,6x = 5 × 60 = $360

The cells of a bacteria doubles in every 15 minutes. A scientist begins with a single cell. How many cells will be there after (
Anastaziya [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

  • 1 cell = 15 minutes

So, we can concert 15 minutes to hours.

So,

60 minutes = 1 hour

1 minute = 1/60

15 minutes =

\frac{15}{60}  = 0.25 \: hrs

Okay, now we will apply first for 0.4 hours.

0.25  \: hrs= 1 \: cell

1 \: hr =  \frac{1}{0.25}

0.4 \: hrs =  \frac{0.4}{0.25}

= 1.6 \: cells

= 16  \times  {10}^{ - 1} \: cells

Now, second one:-

10 \: hrs =  \frac{10}{0.25}

= 40 \: cells

= 0.4 \times  {10}^{2}  \: cells

Hope it helps :D

A tortoise and a hare are competing in a race around a 1600-meter track. The arrogant hare decides to let the tortoise have a 95
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

A. t=4n+950

B. h=9.5n

C. d=9.5n-(4n+950)

D. The tortoise will finish first.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the first two equations, we put the rate at which they are traveling in front of the n, and then add where they start. Since the tortoise gets a 950 meter head start, we add 950. The hare is starting at the start line so we don't need to add anything.

For answer c, we need to subtract the two equations from each other to figure out when they would pass each other. d=(equation h)-(equation t).

For the final answer, all you need to do is plug the first two equations into a graph, and then find where each line is at the point of y 1,600. (To make the graphs I replaced the n with x and the t and h with y.) Using this, we are able to see who got there first, which was the tortoise.

A Statistics class is estimating the mean height of all female students at their college. They collect a random sample of 36 fem
Butoxors [25]

Answer: = ( 63.9, 66.7)

Therefore at 90% confidence interval (a,b)= ( 63.9, 66.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 65.3

Standard deviation r = 5.2

Number of samples n = 36

Confidence interval = 90%

z(at 90% confidence) = 1.645

Substituting the values we have;

65.3 +/-1.645(5.2/√36)

65.3 +/-1.645(0.86667)

65.3+/- 1.4257

65.3+/- 1.4

= ( 63.9, 66.7)

Therefore at 90% confidence interval (a,b)= ( 63.9, 66.7)
