A bowl of fruit contains only strawberries and grapes. For every 2 strawberries in a bowl there are 5 grapes.

sdas [7]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let:

$S \to$ Strawberry

$G \to$ Grape

The given parameter can be represented as:

$S : G = 2 : 5$

Required

The question is incomplete as what is required is not stated.

Possible questions could be to determine the number of strawberries given a certain number of grapes, and vice versa

Take for instance

Calculate the number of grapes when there are 20 strawberries

We have:

$S : G = 2 : 5$

This becomes

$20 : G = 2 : 5$

Express as fraction

$\frac{20}{ G} = \frac{2 }{5}$

Make G the subject

$G = 20 * \frac{5}{2}$

$G = 10 * 5$

$G = 50$

i.e. 50 grapes

Apply the same method given a certain number of grapes

Two cargo ships are sailing a direct course into harbor. Ship A is 22 miles from harbor. Ship Bis sailing into harbor on a cours

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The distance of ship B from the Harbor is 32.26 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Equations.

I have added a visual aid of the problem. As we can see the courses of both ship to the harbor forms a triangle with ship B being the hypotenuse. Since we are given the distance of the course for ship A and the angle between both ships, we can use this information with the COSINE operator to solve for the length of the course of ship B.

$cos(x) = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

$cos(47) = \frac{22miles}{hypotenuse}$ .... flip both fractions.

$\frac{1}{cos(47)} = \frac{hypotenuse}{22miles}$ .... multiply both sides by 22

$\frac{22mi}{cos(47)} = hypotenuse$

$32.26mi = hypotenuse = B$

So the distance of ship B from the Harbor is 32.26 miles

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Three charges are arranged in an equilateral triangle with sides of 4 cm. The coordinates and corresponding charge values are as

lisov135 [29]

To determine the answer of Part A draw the equilateral triangle and the to determine the coordinates of of the third charge use that triangle.
To calculate the gravitational field strength in part B from each of the charges use the following equation.

E=kcq/r2

If you would add those values then you can use the symmetry about the y axis to make the vector addition a litter easier.

The original price of a shirt was $20. It was decreased to $15. What is the percent decrease of the price of this shirt?

KIM [24]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Price reduction = 20 - 15 = $ 5

Percent decrease of price = (5/20)*100 = 5*5 = 25%
