What number am I?

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The numbers less that 40 which have sum of digits 8 are 17, 26, 35.

Only one of those that has a factor of 7. And that is 35.

So you are 35.

Second way:

The numbers less that 40 which have a factor of 7 are 7,14,21,28,35

Only one of those which has sum of digits as 8. And that is 35.

So you are 35.

1. an alloy contains zinc and copper in the ratio of 7:9 find weight of copper of it had 31.5 kgs of zinc.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question (1). An alloy contains zinc and copper in the ratio of 7 : 9.

If the weight of an alloy = x kgs

Then weight of copper = $\frac{9}{7+9}\times (x)$

= $\frac{9}{16}\times (x)$

And the weight of zinc = $\frac{7}{7+9}\times (x)$

= $\frac{7}{16}\times (x)$

If the weight of zinc = 31.5 kg

31.5 = $\frac{7}{16}\times (x)$

x = $\frac{16\times 31.5}{7}$

x = 72 kgs

Therefore, weight of copper = $\frac{9}{16}\times (72)$

= 40.5 kgs

2). i). 2 : 3 = $\frac{2}{3}$

4 : 5 = $\frac{4}{5}$

Now we will equalize the denominators of each fraction to compare the ratios.

$\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{5}{5}$ = $\frac{10}{15}$

$\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{3}{3}=\frac{12}{15}$

Since, $\frac{12}{15}>\frac{10}{15}$

Therefore, 4 : 5 > 2 : 3

ii). 11 : 19 = $\frac{11}{19}$

19 : 21 = $\frac{19}{21}$

By equalizing denominators of the given fractions,

$\frac{11}{19}\times \frac{21}{21}=\frac{231}{399}$

And $\frac{19}{21}\times \frac{19}{19}=\frac{361}{399}$

Since, $\frac{361}{399}>\frac{231}{399}$

Therefore, 19 : 21 > 11 : 19

iii). $\frac{1}{2}:\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{3}{1}$

$=\frac{3}{2}$

$\frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{4}{1}$

= $\frac{4}{3}$

Now we equalize the denominators of the fractions,

$\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{3}{3}=\frac{9}{6}$

And $\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{2}{2}=\frac{8}{6}$

Since $\frac{9}{6}>\frac{8}{6}$

Therefore, $\frac{1}{2}:\frac{1}{3}>\frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{4}$ will be the answer.

IV). $1\frac{1}{5}:1\frac{1}{3}=\frac{6}{5}:\frac{4}{3}$

$=\frac{6}{5}\times \frac{3}{4}$

$=\frac{18}{20}$

$=\frac{9}{10}$

Similarly, $\frac{2}{5}:\frac{3}{2}=\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{2}{3}$

$=\frac{4}{15}$

By equalizing the denominators,

$\frac{9}{10}\times \frac{30}{30}=\frac{270}{300}$

Similarly, $\frac{4}{15}\times \frac{20}{20}=\frac{80}{300}$

Since $\frac{270}{300}>\frac{80}{300}$

Therefore, $1\frac{1}{5}:1\frac{1}{3}>\frac{2}{5}:\frac{3}{2}$

V). If a : b = 6 : 5

$\frac{a}{b}=\frac{6}{5}$

$=\frac{6}{5}\times \frac{2}{2}$

$=\frac{12}{10}$

And b : c = 10 : 9

$\frac{b}{c}=\frac{10}{9}$

Since a : b = 12 : 10

And b : c = 10 : 9

Since b = 10 is common in both the ratios,

Therefore, combined form of the ratios will be,

a : b : c = 12 : 10 : 9

The Coopers own two vehicles, a mini-van and sedan. The following functions represent the resale value of both cars, in thousand

velikii [3]

Answer:

$h(x) = 57(0.8)^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 32(0.8)^x$

$g(x) = 25(0.8)^x$

Required

A function that represents the total resale value of the two vehicles

To do this, we simply add up the functions

$h(x) = f(x) + g(x)$

$h(x) = 32(0.8)^x + 25(0.8)^x$

Factorize

$h(x) = (32 + 25)(0.8)^x$

$h(x) = 57(0.8)^x$
