The answer is 5:2 ration, it's already fully simplified
24 (you new amount) - 11 (new cards) = 13 cards to begin with
Answer: the answer is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
good luck
3/2 and 9/10. Look at the denominators. 2 times what number equals 10. That number would be 5. So if you multiply the first fractions denominator by 5 you get 10. Do the same to the top. you get a new fracrion which is 15/10. Add normally. 15/10 + 9/10 = 24/10. In lowest terms it is 2 2/5 (2 wholes and 2 out of 5)
Solve using equations:
Gina 11 = a+b+c
Sam 27 = 2a+3b+2c
Robby 19= a+2b+2c
Gina *2 give 22=2a+2b+2c (subtract this from Sam to give)
b=5
the subtract Robby from Gina *2 to give a=3
[Question 1]
let d = number of dramas Gina rented, c = # of comedies, and t = # of documentaries:
[equation a] d + c + t = 11
[equation b] 2d + 3c + 2t = 27
[equation c] d + 2c + 2t = 19
if we subtract [a] from [c] we get:
[equation d] c + t = 8
if we subtract [c]*2 from [b] we get:
[equation e] -c - 2t = -11 or
[equation e] c + 2t = 11
Now we can subtract [e] from [d] to solve for t:
t = 3
Now put in 3 for t in [d] or [e] to solve for c:
c + 2(3) = 11
c + 6 = 11
c = 5
So she rented 5 comedies and 3 documentaries which leaves 3 dramas (which is answer A)
