Answer:
31 (i.e 3 tens and 1 unit)
Step-by-step explanation:
217 can be split up as,
2 hundreds, 1 tens, and 7 units.
186 can be split up as,
1 hundred, 8 tens and 6 units
If we solve straight we'll have
(2-1)hundreds + (1-8)tens + (7-6)units.
(1-8)tens will give a negative value, complicating the operation.
To make our operation easier we can use the fact that 1 hundred is equal to 10 ten to further split the 217, and it becomes
1 hundred, 11 tens and 7 units.
The operation becomes
(1-1)hundreds + (11 - 8)tens + (7-6)units
= 0 hundred + 3tens + 1 unit
= 3 tens + 1unit
= (3 x 10) + 1 = 31
Answer: 2 : 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of boys = 4
Number of girls = 10
Total number of students = total number of boys + total number of girls ,that is
Total number of students = 4 + 10
= 14
Therefore , the ratio in the simplest form that compares number of boys to total number of students is given by
number of boys : total number of students , that is
4 : 14
which will be
2 : 7 in the simplest form
Answer:
x ≈ - 6.74, 0.74
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 6x - 5 = 0 ( add 5 to both sides )
x² + 6x = 5
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 5 + 9
(x + 3)² = 14 ( take square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ± 
( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ±
Then
x = - 3 - ≈ - 6.74 ( to the nearest hundredth )
x = - 3 + ≈ 0.74 ( to the nearest hundredth )
Answer:
Adult ticket is $60
Child ticket is $32
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = price of adult ticket
y = price of child ticket
(1) 175x + 103y = 13796 (2) 2x + 2y = 184
x + y = 92
y = 92 - x
175x + 103(92 - x) = 13796
175x + 9476 - 103x = 13796
72x = 4320
x = 60 y = 92 - 60
y = 32
18/27 can be reduced to 2/3 so the second option should be the correct answer
