Greta is trying to determine the portion of green candies in various bags of green and yellow candies. Using the information bel

IrinaK [193]

Answer: a) $\dfrac{1}{3}$ b) $\dfrac{71}{100}$ c) $\dfrac{5}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

There are green and yellow candies in each bag.

Bag A: Two thirds of the candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?

Part of yellow candies in bag A = $\dfrac{2}{3}$

Part of green candies in bag A would be

$1-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{3-2}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{3}$

Bag B: 29 % of the candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?

Percentage of candies are yellow = 29%

Portion of candies are green is given by

$1-\dfrac{29}{100}\\\\=1-0.29\\\\=0.71\\\\=\dfrac{71}{100}$

Bag C: 4 out of every 9 candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?

Portion of yellow candies = $\dfrac{4}{9}$

Portion of green candies would be

$1-\dfrac{4}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{9-4}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{9}$

Hence, a) $\dfrac{1}{3}$ b) $\dfrac{71}{100}$ c) $\dfrac{5}{9}$

Find the 12th term of the following geometric sequence.<br> 10, 30, 90, 270,

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

<h3>The 12th term is 1771470</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the above sequence is a geometric sequence

An nth term of a geometric sequence is given by

$A(n) = a(r)^{n - 1}$

where a is the first term

r is the common ratio

n is the number of terms

From the question

a = 10

To find the common ratio divide the previous term by the next term

That's

r = 30/10 = 3 or 90/30 = 3 or 270/90 = 3

Since we are finding the 12th term

n = 12

So the 12th term is

$A(12) = 10( {3})^{12 - 1}$

$A(12) = 10 ({3})^{11}$

<h3>A(12) = 1771470</h3>

7x - 20 = 2x - 3(3x + 2)

kirill [66]

Answer:

7x-20=2x-3(3x+2)

We move all terms to the left:

7x-20-(2x-3(3x+2))=0

We calculate terms in parentheses: -(2x-3(3x+2)), so:

2x-3(3x+2)

We multiply parentheses

2x-9x-6

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-7x-6

Back to the equation:

-(-7x-6)

We get rid of parentheses

7x+7x+6-20=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

14x-14=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

14x=14

x=14/14

x=1
