In a bag there are blue sweets, red sweets and yellow sweets. The number of blue sweets is four times the number of yellow sweets. The number of red sweets is half the number of yellow sweets. Find the percentage of sweets in the bag that are yellow.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

18.18%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of sweets in the bag that are yellow is as follows:

Let us assume the number of yellow sweets be x

So for number of blue sweets be 4x

And, the number of red sweets be 0.5x

So it could be written as

Blue Red Yellow

4        0.5    1

8        1        2

So for yellow, the percentage is

= 2 ÷ (8 + 1 + 2)

= 2 ÷ 11

= 18.18%

During a​ sale, a dress is marked down from a selling price of ​$ to a sale price of ​$. What is the percent​ markdown?

Answers

Complete question :

35%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price = $68

Markdown price = $44.20

Percentage markdown :

Markdown / selling price * 100%

((68 - 44.20) / 68) * 100%

(23.8 / 68) * 100%

0.35 * 100%

= 35%

Three students have already enrolled for a creative writing class. The teacher will cancel the class if there are fewer than 10 students enrolled. Write three values for numbers of students needed to sign up so that the the creative writing class can be held

Answers

Answer:

7, 10 and 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]S_1= 3[/tex]  --- Students already enrolled

[tex]Total = 10\ (less)[/tex]

Required

Determine the additional number of students needed for the teacher not to cancel the class

First, we need to calculate the number of students for the teacher to cancel the class.

Represent this with x.

So, we have:

[tex]S_1 + x < Total[/tex]

Make x the subject

[tex]x < Total - S_1[/tex]

Substitute values for Total and S1

[tex]x < 10 - 3[/tex]

[tex]x < 7[/tex]

This means that if less than 7 additional students come to the class, the teacher will cancel the class.

So, for the teacher not to cancel the class, the students must be 7 or greater (i.e. 7, 8, 9, 10....)

s is inversely proportional to t
When s = 0.5, t = 7
Work out s when t = 0.8

Answers

Given:

s is inversely proportional to t.

When s = 0.5, t = 7.

To find:

The value of s when t=0.8.

Solution:

s is inversely proportional to t.

[tex]s\propto \dfrac{1}{t}[/tex]

[tex]s=\dfrac{k}{t}[/tex]       ...(i)

Where, k is the constant of proportionality.

Putting s=0.5 and t=7, we get

[tex]0.5=\dfrac{k}{7}[/tex]

[tex]0.5\times 7=k[/tex]

[tex]3.5=k[/tex]

Putting k=3.5 in (i), we get

[tex]s=\dfrac{3.5}{t}[/tex]

This is the equation of proportionality.

Putting t=0.8, we get

[tex]s=\dfrac{3.5}{0.8}[/tex]

[tex]s=4.375 [/tex]

Therefore, the value of s is 4.375 when t=0.8.

Jonny and Faheem share some money in the ratio 3:5. Faheem gets £12 more than Jonny. How much does Jonny get?

Answers

Given:

Jonny and Faheem share some money in the ratio 3:5.

Faheem gets £12 more than Jonny.

To find:

The amount that Jonny gets.

Solution:

Jonny and Faheem share some money in the ratio 3:5.

Let Jonny and Faheem get 3x and 5x.

Different between their amounts is

[tex]5x-3x=2x[/tex]

Faheem gets £12 more than Jonny. It means the difference between their amounts is equal to £12.

[tex]2x=12[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{12}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=6[/tex]

The amount that Jonny gets is

[tex]3x=3(6)[/tex]

[tex]3x=18[/tex]

Therefore, Jonny gets £18.

Solve for x
14x + 2 = 9x - 3

Answers

-9x from both sides
5x+2=-3
-2 from both sides
5x=-5
x= -1

Answer:

[tex]x=-1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Subtract 9x from both sides.

[tex]14x+2-9x=-3[/tex]

2)  Simplify  14x+2-9x to 5x+2.

[tex]5x+2=-3[/tex]

3) Subtract 2 from both sides.

[tex]5x=-3-2[/tex]

4) Simplify  -3-2 to  -5.

[tex]5x=-5[/tex]

5) Divide both sides by 5.

[tex]x=-1[/tex]

Therefor, the answer is x = -1

MarathonTraining for a marathon takes work and perseverance. It is not something you can do on the spur of the moment. Preparing for a marathon takes months, particularly if you have never run a marathon before. The official distance of a full marathon is 26.2 miles. In 2005, the average time to complete a marathon in the United States was 4 hours 32 minutes 8 seconds for men and 5 hours 6 minutes 8 seconds for women. Most people who run marathons are not trying to win. Many runners try to beat their own best time. Some compare their time to other runners in the same gender and age group. Some people set time-oriented goals, such as finishing under four hours, while others try to complete the race without slowing to a walk. Many beginners simply hope to finish the marathon.Trainers recommend that beginners maintain a consistent running schedule for six weeks prior to even starting a marathon training program. The purpose of this is to allow the body to adapt to the various physical demands of long-distance running. First-time marathon runners should train by running four days a week for at least four months, increasing distance by no more than ten percent weekly. As race day approaches, runners should taper their runs, reducing the strain on their bodies and resting before the marathon. It is important not to overexert yourself during training because that can lead to a lot of injuries. Most common injuries are spraining of the knees and ankles. These sprains can hinder the training.Before the race, it is important to stretch in order to keep muscles limber. Staying hydrating is also important, but there is a danger in drinking too much water. If a runner drinks too much water, he/she may experience a dangerous condition called hyponatremia, a drop of sodium levels in the blood. During the race, trainers recommend maintaining a steady pace. It is normal to feel sore after a marathon. Light exercise will help sore muscles heal faster.Some people run marathons in pairs or groups. Training for and running with another person or group of people can make the experience more enjoyable and more rewarding. A running partner might be just the motivation you need to show up for an early morning run instead of rolling over to hit the snooze button. And, when you cross the finish line together, you can share the satisfaction of reaching your common goal.Usually, thousands of people sign up and run a marathon. Most people finish the race. The thrill of running a marathon for the first time is unbelievable. The training sessions are harder if you have never run before. But it is unbelievable what ones body can do when one puts their mind to it. Having a good coach to support you makes all the difference in training for a marathon.The health benefits you gain from training are tremendous. Your core muscles grow stronger and you will have tighter thighs and gluts. Your heart will be much stronger and you can maintain lower cholesterol and blood sugar levels. Overall you will look better and healthier.Nothing can explain how people feel when they reach that finish line at the end of the race. All the hard work and months of training feel worthwhile. The feeling of accomplishing something great overtakes you. It is great to run a marathon but it is even greater to finish it.Write a sentence summary of the first paragraph in the text. 90% Attempt 1245678910cIf a criminal sentence is commuted it is doubled.Please select the best answer from the choices providedAnswer is F False Read each sentence below.
