Answer:

The answer is "1:2"

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 96 car sales are X and 96 truck sales are Y  And income from 97 cars is 0.89X, income from 97 trucks is 1.07Y

\to \frac{(0.89X+1.07Y)}{(X+Y)}=1.01\\\\\frac{X}{Y}=?\\\\\to \frac{(0.89X+1.07Y)}{(X+Y)}\ \ \text{Divide by Y and get}\ \ \frac{( \frac{0.89X}{Y}+1.07)}{(\frac{X}{Y}+1)} =1.01\\\\

Then

\to \frac{X}{Y}=1:2

Two intelligent, honest students are sitting together at lunch one day when their math teacher hands them each a card. “your car
Lady bird [3.3K]
Answer: The loser's card shows 6.

Explanation: Let's start by naming the first student A and the second student B.
Since the product of A and B are either 12, 15, or 18, let's list every single possibility, the first number being A's number and the second number being B's number.

1     12
1     15
1     18
2     6
2     9
3     4
3     5
3     6
4     3
5     3
6     2
6     3
9     2
12  1
15  1
18  1

Now, the information says that A doesn't know what B has, so we can immediately cross off all of the combinations that have the integer appearing once and once ONLY off, because if it happened once only, A would know of it straight away. Now, our sample space becomes much smaller.

1     12
1     15
1     18
2     6
2     9
3     4
3     5
3     6
6     2
6     3

Using this same logic, we know that we can cross off all of the digits that occur only once in B's column.

2     6
3     6

Now, A definitely knows what number B has because there is only one number left in B. Hence, we can conclude that the loser, B, has the integer 6.

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

$49.72

Step-by-step explanation:

The tip is 11% of the price of the pizza.

The price of the pizza is $452.

The tip is 11% of $452.

<em>To find a percent of a number, change the percent to a decimal and multiply by the number. To change a percent to a decimal, divide the percent by 100 which is the same as moving the decimal point two places to the left.</em>

11% of $452 =

= 0.11 * $452

= $49.72
