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

Given m varies directly with n and m = 6 when n = 5. what is the value of n when m = 12?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

n = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

given m varies directly as n then the equation relating them is

m = kn ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use the condition m = 6 when n = 5

6 = 5k ( divide both sides by 5 )

k = \frac{6}{5} = 1.2

m = 1.2n ← equation of variation

when m = 12 , then

12 = 1.2n ( divide both sides by 1.2 )

10 = n

Bob withdrew money from an ATM, put the receipt in an envelope, and filled in the information in his check register.

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles add to 90 degrees

a+b = 90

64+b = 90

Subtract 64 from each side

64-64 +b = 90-64
