Answer:

<em>The fraction of the beads that are red is</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Algebraic Expressions</u>

A bag contains red (r), yellow (y), and blue (b) beads. We are given the following ratios:

r:y = 2:3

y:b = 5:4

We are required to find r:s, where s is the total of beads in the bag, or

s = r + y + b

Thus, we need to calculate:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}       \qquad\qquad    [1]

Knowing that:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}=\frac{2}{3}      \qquad\qquad    [2]

\displaystyle \frac{y}{b}=\frac{5}{4}

Multiplying the equations above:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}\frac{y}{b}=\frac{2}{3}\frac{5}{4}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{b}=\frac{5}{6}       \qquad\qquad    [3]

Dividing [1] by r:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+y/r+b/r}

Substituting from [2] and [3]:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+3/2+6/5}

Operating:

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{\frac{10+3*5+6*2}{10}}

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{10+15+12}

\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{37}

The fraction of the beads that are red is \mathbf{\frac{10}{37}}

How do you solve powers of powers in advanced algebra
Anna35 [415]
Ex: 2^2^2

Basically, the base is multiplied by the first power however large the number. Then the new base is multiplied by the second power to get an even larger number.
Say you have a question that asks for the power of the power of 2. Or 2^2^2.

You would do the equation 2^2 first, and end up with 4. But since you have another power, you would have the answer as 4^2. Which would then equal 16. But another equation that is similar is: 2^2^2 = 2^4
The two equations would still get the same answer, but would look entirely different.

Suppose that the functions s and t are defined for all real numbers x as follows.
jeka94

Answer:

(s.t)(x) = 4x^2+24x^2\\(s-t)(x) = x+6-4x^2\\(s+t)(-3) = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Given functions are:

s(x)= x+6\\t(x)= 4x^2

We have to find:

(s.t)(x) => this means we have to multiply the two functions to get the result.

So,

(s.t)(x) = s(x)*t(x)\\= (x+6)(4x^2)\\=4x^2.x+4x^2.6\\=4x^3+24x^2

Also we have to find

(s-t)(x) => we have to subtract function t from function s

(s-t)(x) = s(x) - t(x)\\= (x+6) - (4x^2)\\=x+6-4x^2

Also we have to find,

(s+t)(-3) => first we have to find sum of both functions and then put -3 in place of x

(s+t)(x) = s(x)+t(x)\\= x+6+4x^2

Putting x = -3

= -3+6+4(-3)^2\\=-3+6+4(9)\\=3+36\\=39

Hence,

(s.t)(x) = 4x^2+24x^2\\(s-t)(x) = x+6-4x^2\\(s+t)(-3) = 39
