Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4+3+5= 12 marbles
3/12 * 2/11 = 6/132 = 4.5%
Answer:
7 : 5
Step-by-step explanation:
let the age of the younger be x , then the older is x + 18, thus
x + x + 18 = 108, that is
2x + 18 = 108 ( subtract 18 from both sides )
2x = 90 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 45
Thus younger is 45 and older is 45 + 18 = 63
ratio older : younger = 63 : 45 = 7 : 5
Answer: 0
Explanation:
-1/2n -(-1/2n)
= -1/2n + 1/2n
= 0
So since we know what x is, we can substitute it into the original equation for x like so to solve for y...
(2y - 8) + 5y - 10 = 0
2y - 8 + 5y = 10
2y + 5y = 18
7y = 18
y = 18/7 (or about 2.57)
So now we know what x is, we can sub it into the below equation to solve for x...
x = 2(18/7) - 8
x = 36/14 - 8 (or about -5.43)
