Answer:

The fraction is $\frac{4}{6}$

Option (B) is correct.

$3n-2d=0$ and $4n+8=3d+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n denotes numerator and d denotes denominator of the fraction.

Given : The ratio of the numerator to the denominator of a fraction is 2 to 3.

That is $\frac{n}{d}=\frac{2}{3}$

Cross multiply , we get,

$3n=2d$

Or, $3n-2d=0$ ........(1)

Also, given : . If both the numerator and the denominator are increased by 2, the fraction becomes 3/4

That is $\frac{n+2}{d+2}=\frac{3}{4}$

Cross multiply , We get,

$4{n+2}={3}{d+2}$

$4n+8=3d+6$ .........(2)

$3d-4n=2$ .......(3)

Thus, from (1) and (2) , option (B) follows.

Solving equation (1) and (3) to get the original fraction using elimination method,

3n - 2d = 0 ............(1)

and 3d - 4n = 2 .........(3)

Multiply equation (1) by 3 , we get ,

9n - 6d = 0 ..........(4)

Multiply equation (3) by 2 , we get ,

-8n + 6d = 4 ..........(5)

Adding (4) and (5) , we get,

9n - 6d -8n + 6d = 4 + 0

⇒ n = 4

Put n = 4 in (1), we get

3n - 2d = 0 ⇒ 3(4) - 2d = 0 ⇒ 12 -2d = 0 ⇒ 12 = 2d ⇒ d = 6

so, the numerator is 4 and the denominator is 6.

Thus, the fraction is $\frac{4}{6}$

box contains 15 items,4 of which are defective and 11 are good. Two items are selected. What is probability that the first is go

allsm [11]

The probability of the first item being good is 11/15.
Since we have taken 1 item out the remaining total is now 14, so the probability of getting a defective item is now 4/14.
Now you multiply the probabilities together to get (11/15)(2/7)=22/105

Answer:

m<N = 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

∆JKL and ∆MNL are isosceles ∆ (isosceles ∆ has 2 equal sides).

m<J = 64° (given)

Required:

m<N

SOLUTION:

m<K = m<J (base angles of an isosceles ∆ are equal)

m<K = 64° (Substitution)

m<K + m<J + m<JLK = 180° (sum of ∆)

64° + 64° + m<JLK = 180° (substitution)

128° + m<JLK = 180°

subtract 128 from each side

m<JLK = 180° - 128°

m<JLK = 52°

In isosceles ∆MNL, m<MLN and <M are base angles of the ∆. Therefore, they are of equal measure.

Thus:

m<MLN = m<JKL (vertical angles are congruent)

m<MLN = 52°

m<M = m<MLN (base angles of isosceles ∆MNL)

m<M = 52° (substitution)

m<N + m<M° + m<MLN = 180° (Sum of ∆)

m<N + 52° + 52° = 180° (Substitution)

m<N + 104° = 180°

subtract 104 from each side

m<N = 180° - 104°

m<N = 76°
