Using proportions, considering the weight of each bar and the ratio, it is found that the ship is carrying 52 gold bars.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Each bar weighs 5 kg, and the total weight is of 600 kg, hence the number of bars is given by:
n = 600/5 = 120.
The proportion of gold bars is given by:
p = 13/(13 + 17) = 13/30
Hence, out of 120 bars, the number of gold bars is given by:
nG = 120 x 13/30 = 4 x 13 = 52.

-24a²- 6a +9 = - 3(8a² +6a - 9)
8a² +6a - 9 =0
x=(-b +/-√(b² - 4ac))/2a
x = (-6 +/-√(36+4*8*9) /(2*8) = (-6 +/-√(324) /16 = (-6 +/-18)/16
x1 = (-6 +18)/16 = 0.75
x2 = (-6 -18)/16 = - 1.5
-24a²- 6a +9 = - 3(8a² +6a - 9) = -3(a - 0.75)(a + 1.5)
Answer:
5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
not sure what the wuestion is but using the formula. A^2 + B^2 = C^2 we find that 100 / 4 = 25 and the square root of 25 is 5
The answer is 4 and 8.
8 + 4 = 12
8 - 4 = 4
