Answer:
60 students passed, and 75 appeared in examination.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say s is the total number of students and p is the number of students who passed.
80% of the students passed, so:
0.8 s = p
If there were 10 less passers, and 15 less students (5 less failures), then the ratio of passers to failures would be 5/1.
(p − 10) / (s − p − 5) = 5 / 1
Simplify the second equation:
p − 10 = 5 (s − p − 5)
p − 10 = 5s − 5p − 25
6p = 5s − 15
Substitute the first equation.
6 (0.8 s) = 5s − 15
4.8 s = 5s − 15
0.2 s = 15
s = 75
p = 0.8 s
p = 60
60 students passed, and 75 appeared in examination.
We have that the total students there are 500. The 12-graders there are 200. Probability is defined as the ratio of positive outcomes of an event, over all the possible outcomes. Suppose we pick student randomly. Then, there are 200 positive outcomes (positive outcome: we pick a student in 12th grade) and there are totally 500 outcomes (we can pick 500 students in total from Riverside High School). This ratio gives:
. The requested probability is 0.40
The correct answer is 537
Answer:
x = -2, y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
x-7y=-9---------------------equation 1
-x+8y=10-------------------equation 2
From equation 1, make x the subject of formula
x=7y-9----------------------equation 3
substituting x=7y-9 in equation 2,
-(7y-9)+8y=10
Expanding bracket
-7y+9+8y=10
Collecting like terms
8y-7y=10-9
y=1
substituting y=1 in 3
x=7(1)-9
x=7-9
x=-2
The answer is B. 0.8/0.1 = s
The solution is as follows:
s = honey at hand / honey needed for 1 serving
= 0.8 L / 0.1 L
= 8, she can make 8 servings of the recipe
