A rational number is such that when you multiply it by 5/2 and add 2/3 to the product, you get 7/12. What is the number?

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:A rational number is such that when you multiply it by 5/2 and add 2/3 to the product you get -7/12 . What is the number.

Step-by-step explanation:Let p/q (q ≠ 0) denote the rational number. Multiplying it by 5/2 gives (p/q)(5/2). Add 2/3 to the product and we get (p/q)(5/2) + 2/3 . The result is given to be -7/12.

∴ (p/q)(5/2) + 2/3 = -7/12 …………………………..……………………………………..(1)

Transposing 2/3 to right-hand-side and changing the sign to negative,

(p/q)(5/2) = -2/3 -7/12 = -(2/3 + 7/12) =- (2 x 4 + 7)/12 (Taking L.C.M.)

Or, (p/q)(5/2) = -(8+7)/12 = - 15/12

Multiplying both sides by 2/5,

(p/q)(5/2) x (2/5) = -15/12 . 2/5 = -(3x5)/(3x4) . 2/5 =- 5/4 .2/5

Since 2/5 is the multiplicative inverse of 5/2, 5/2 x 2/5 = 1 and we obtain

(p/q).1 = -1/4 . 2/1 = -1/2

⇒ p/q = -1/2 which is a negative rational number in which p = 1 and q = 2 ≠ 0 .

∴ the rational number = -1/2

ANSWER IF YOU KNOW!!!!! THANKS

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The third graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations for the lines will be

P(x) = 2x-4

l(x) = -2x-4

When x = 0 both of these functions equal -4. The only graph where this happens is the third one.

You can check this by looking at the slopes and plugging in points.

John and Martha are contemplating having children, but John’s brother has galactosemia (an autosomal recessive disease) and Mart

Rina8888 [55]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

$Probability=\frac{1}{24}$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

As the question states,

John's brother has Galactosemia which states that his parents were both the carriers.

Therefore, the chances for the John to have the disease is = 2/3

Now,

Martha's great-grandmother also had the disease that means her children definitely carried the disease means probability of 1.

Now, one of those children married with a person.

So,

Probability for the child to have disease will be = 1/2

Now, again the child's child (Martha) probability for having the disease is = 1/2.

Therefore,

<u>The total probability for Martha's first child to be diagnosed with Galactosemia will be,</u>

$Probability=\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{4}\\Probability=\frac{1}{24}$

(Here, we assumed that the child has the disease therefore, the probability was taken to be = 1/4.)

<em><u>Hence, the probability for the first child to have Galactosemia is $\frac{1}{24}$ </u></em>

Sameera predicted that she would sell 38 blankets, but she actually sold 28 blankets. Which expression would find the percent er

antoniya [11.8K]

Solution: We are given:

Predicted Sales by Sameera $=38$

Actual Sales by Sameera $=28$

Now to find the Percent error, we have to use the below formula:

$Percent-Error= \frac{|Predicted-value - Actual-value|}{Actual-value} \times 100 \%$

$=\frac{|38-28|}{28} \times 100 \%$

$=\frac{10}{28}\times 100 \%$

$=35.71 \%$

Therefore, the percent error is $35.71 \%$
