Answer:

a : b = 4 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

(mark as brainlist answer)

According to the given condition is the question :

Two numbers a and b are such that the sum of 5% of a and 4% of b is two-third of the sum of 6% of a and 8% of b

⇒ (5% of a) + (4% of b) = (2/3) × [(6% of a) + (8% of b)

⇒ 0.05a + 0.04b = 2/3 × (0.06a + 0.08b)

⇒ 0.15a + 0.12b = 0.12a + 0.16b

⇒ 0.03a = 0.04b

⇒ a/b = 4/3

⇒ a : b = 4 : 3

Answer:

X=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Snorkel, mask, and flippers Slope: 2 (so in the equation, it would look like 2x).

Snorkel, mask, and flippers Y-intercept: 10 (12 - 2 = 10, which is 0 hours, possibly the initial amount)

Snorkel, mask, and flippers Slope intercept form: y = 2x + 10

The prism shown has a volume of 3,024 cm3.
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

14cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To find volume, you need to multiply the height width and length together. So when you have one missing measurement, to find it, you need to do the same steps except for put a variable for the missing measurement. And continue to do the problem as you would. Here is how I solved it.

V=12x18xH

3024=216xH (216 is 12x18)

Then to find the missing side, do 3024/216 which equals 14.

The equation $y=-4.9t^2+3.5t+5$ describes the height (in meters) of a ball thrown upward at $3.5$ meters per second from $5$ met
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The position function is

s(t)=-4.9t^2+3.5t+5 and if we are looking for the time t it takes for the ball to hit the ground, we are looking for the height of the ball when it is on the ground. Of course the height of anything on the ground is 0, so if we set s(t) = 0 and solve for t, we will find our answer.

0=-4.9t^2+3.5t+5 and factor that however you are currently factoring in class to get that

t = -.71428 seconds or

t = 1.42857 seconds (neither one of those is rational so they can't be expressed as fractions).

We all know that time will never be a negative value, so the time it takes this ball to hit the ground is

1.42857 seconds (round how you need to).

-x+ 3 = - 3x + 23\\2x+3=23 \\2x=20\\x=10

1. Subtract -3x from both sides of equation

2. Subtract 3 from both sides of equation

3. Divide both sides by 2
