The ratio of 1 3/4 to 2 1/2 is equal to the ratio of 14 to what number?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lynna [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios, as follows:

  1 3/4         14

------------ = --------

  2 1/2           x

where x is the unknown number.

Converting the mixed numbers to improper fractions, we get:

7/4       14

------ = -----

5/2        x

Here there are two numerators and two denominators.  Multiplying all four quantities by 4 will remove some of the fractions:

 7        56

------ = -------

 10       4x

Cross multiplying, we get:

28 x = 560, or x = 20

Answer:

1. c      2. a     3. b

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to prove these results are the right ones is by multiplying diagonally :

1.  1/3 = 4/12  -----> 1 . 12 = 12  ; 3 . 4 =12

2.  1/2 = 3/6 ------> 1 . 6 = 6  ;  2 . 3 = 6

3.  2/5 = 6/15 -----> 2 . 15 = 30  ;  5 . 6 = 30

The results of the multiplications must be the same if the fractions are equivalent.

A person invests 6500 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 7% interest compounded
Inessa [10]

Answer:

t=16.2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

A=$20100

P=$6500

r=7%=0.07

n=4

t=?

t=ln(A/P)/n {ln(1+r/n)}

=ln(20100/6500) / 4{ln(1+0.07/4)}

=ln(3.0923)/4{ln(1+0.0175)}

=ln(3.0923)/4{ln(1.0175)}

=1.1289/4(0.0174)

=1.1289/0.0696

=16.23

To the nearest tenth

t=16.2 years
