9514 1404 393

Answer:

  Amir: 2/3

  Whitney: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can let w represent the fraction Whitney eats. Then the fraction Amir eats is (w+5/12). The total amount they eat is found by ...

  w + (w +5/12) + 1/12 = 1

  2w = 1/2 . . . . . subtract 6/12

  w = 1/4 . . . . fraction Whitney eats

  w+5/12 = 3/12 +5/12 = 8/12 = 2/3 . . . . fraction Amir eats

Slips of paper numbered 1 to 15 are placed in a box. A slip of paper is drawn at random. What is the probability that the number
monitta

Given:

Slips of paper numbered 1 to 15 are placed in a box.

To find:

The probability that the number picked is either a multiple of 5 or an odd number.

Solution:

We have,

Total outcomes = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15

No. of total outcomes = 15

Multiple of 5 are 5, 10, 15.

Odd numbers are 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15.

Number that are either a multiple of 5 or an odd number are 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15.

No. of favorable outcomes = 9

We know that,

\text{Probability}=\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

\text{Probability}=\dfrac{9}{15}

\text{Probability}=\dfrac{3}{5}

\text{Probability}=0.6

Therefore, the  probability that the number picked is either a multiple of 5 or an odd number is 0.6.

Maria studied the traffic trends in India. She found that the number of cars on the road increases by 10% each year. If there we
lord [1]

Answer:

b. 8,800,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

In maria study the number of cars on the road increases by 10% each year.

Total number of cars in the first year =80 million cars.

We will add 10% of 80 million to 80 milion to enable us get the number of cars for the second year.

For year 2 we have;

10% of 80,000,000+80,000,000

\frac{10}{100}*80,000,000+80,000,000

8,000,000 + 80,000,000

88,000,000

number of cars in year 2 = 88 million

We will add 10% of 88 million to 88 milion to enable us get the number of cars for the third year.

\frac{10}{100}*88,000,000+88,000,000

8,800,000+88,000,000

96,800,000

the number of cars on the road in year 3 compared to year 2 will just be the increase which is in BOLD. That is 8,800,000

<em>or simply subtract the number of cars in year 2 from that in year 3;</em>

96,800,000-88,000,000 = 8,800,000

Given the function defined below, what is the value of the 4th term?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The 4 t h term is   f(4)   = 143

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Explanation</em>:-

Given  function f(1) = -4

Given 'nth' term is  f(n) = -3f(n-1) +5

Put n =2         <em> f(2) = -3 f(2-1) +5</em>

                             = -3 f(1) +5

                             = -3 (-4) +5

                             = 12 +5

                       f(2) = 17

put n= 3      

                         f(n) = -3f(n-1) +5  

                      <em>   f(3) = -3 f(3-1) +5</em>

                            = -3f(2) +5

                           = -3(17) +5

                           = -51+5

                      f(3) = -46

Put n=4

                  f(n) = -3f(n-1) +5

               <em>  f(4)  = -3f(4-1) +5</em>

<em>                  f(4)  = -3f(3)+5</em>

                f(4)   = -3(-46)+5

                f(4)   = 138 +5

                f(4)   = 143

<u><em>Final answer</em></u>:-

<em>The 4 t h term is   f(4)   = 143</em>
