Answer:

25 and 15  

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we were given two parts to be in ratio 5:3

the first number is then 5x , and second number 3x

Note that the second number is more than the first so it becomes

3x + 10

5x = 3x +10,     5x - 3x = 10

2x = 10,     x = 5

from the question,  we find the two parts ;

the first number would be 5x

5 x 5 = 25

and second number, 3x = 3x 5 = 15

so the two numbers are  25 and 15..    25 + 15 = 40

Answer:

Add 7 black beads

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we can only change the number of black beads, decide how many black beads you will add based on how many white beads there are.

There are three white beads in the picture.

Total beads we will have (<em>b</em> meaning black)     b : 3

                                  Ratio black : white beads 3 : 1

Use the common ratio, which is a number that both sides of the original ratio multiply by to get to the new ratio.

Find common ratio by dividing total by ratio white beads: 3/1 = 3

Multiply ratio black beads by common ratio. 3 X 3 = 9

<u>We need 9 black beads in total</u>.

Check answer

9 : 3     Both sides divisible by 3; reduce ratio

= 3 : 1        Correct ratio

There will be a total of 9 black beads, but we already have 2 black beads:

(9 total) - (2 original) = (7 to add)

Therefore we need to add 7 black beads.

Answer: Ann's distance from home staying is increasing the fastest from the 5th to the 6th minute

Step-by-step explanation: The slope from the 5th minute to the 6th minute is 40, meaning that she increased 40 mph in one minute. This increase is greater than any other time periods. At first, you might think that minute 0 to 1 is the greatest but the slope from minute 0 to 1 is actually 30 mph, so therefore my answer can be proven correct.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

The required recursive formula is

f(n)= 500\times(1.4)^{n-1}\\

Step-by-step explanation:

Mohamed decided to track the number of leaves on the tree in his backyard each year.

The first year there were 500 leaves

Year \: 1 = 500

Each year thereafter the number of leaves was 40% more than the year before so that means

Year \: 2 = 500(1+0.40) = 500\times 1.4\\

For the third year the number of leaves increase 40% than the year before so that means

Year \: 3 = 500\times 1.4(1+0.40) = 500 \times 1.4^{2}\\

Similarly for fourth year,

Year \: 4 = 500\times 1.4^{2}(1+0.40) = 500\times 1.4^{3}\\

So we can clearly see the pattern here

Let f(n) be the number of leaves on the tree in Mohameds back yard in the nth year since he started tracking it then general recursive formula is

f(n)= 500\times(1.4)^{n-1}\\

This is the required recursive formula to find the number of leaves for the nth year.

Bonus:

Lets find out the number of leaves in the 10th year,

f(10)= 500\times(1.4)^{10-1}\\\\f(10)= 500\times(1.4)^{9}\\\\f(10)= 500\times20.66\\\\f(10)= 10330

So there will be 10330 leaves in the 10th year.
