Write each ratio statement as a fraction and reduce to lowest terms if possible:
18 to 24 =
5 to 15 =
14:42 =
15 cents to 18 cents =
The answers are:
18 to 24 = [tex]\frac{18}{24} = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]
5 to 15 = [tex]\frac{5}{15} = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
14:42 = [tex]\frac{14}{42} = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
15 cents to 18 cents = [tex]\frac{15}{18} = \frac{5}{6}[/tex]
Explanation:
To write a fraction using a ratio, simply use the first number as the numerator (top number), in this case, the numbers 18, 5, 14, and 15, and the second or biggest number as a denominator (bottom number), in this case, the numbers 24, 15, 42 and 18. This means the fractions are [tex]\frac{18}{24}[/tex], [tex]\frac{5}{15}[/tex], [tex]\frac{14}{42}[/tex] , and [tex]\frac{15}{18}[/tex].
The second step is to reduce or simplify the fractions, which means the numbers in a fraction are divided by the same factor (a number that divides another without a remainder). Additionally, to do this, it is important to reduce the fraction to its minimum.
[tex]\frac{18}{24}[/tex] divide this by 6, which is equivalent to [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5}{15}[/tex] divide this by 5, which is equivalent to [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{14}{42}[/tex] divide this by 14. which is equivalent to [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{15}{18}[/tex] divide this by 3, which is equivalent to [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
The number of ways to select 3 points out of 5 points:
N1 = 5C3 = (5 x 4 x 3)/(1 x 2 x3) = 10
The number of ways to select 3 points out of 4 points that are already collinear:
N2 = 4C3 = (4 x 3 x 2)/(1 x 2 x 3) = 4
=> The probability of selecting 3 points that are collinear:
P = N2/N1 = 4/10 = 0.4

A carpenter needs to cut a 5-foot, 8-inch piece of wood form an 8-foot board to make a repair to a door. How many inches of wood will he have left after he makes the cut and repairs the door
Answer:
The left over wood in foot is 2.34 foot
or 2 foot 4 inch
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem desires to test our unit conversion skills
Step one: let us work with foot and convert inches to foot.
The total wood is 8 foot, and we are expected to subtract 5 foot 8 inches from it.
converting 8 inches to foot we have
1 inch -----0.0833333 foot
8 inch-----x foot
cross multiplying we have
x= 8*0.0833333
x= 0.66 foot
Hence the total number of wood to be subtracted in foot is 5.66 foot
i.e 8-5.66= 2.34 foot
The left over wood in foot is 2.34 foot
or 2 foot 4 inch

A first number plus twice a second number is 4. Twice the first number plus the second totals 17. Find the numbers
Answer:
10; -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's represent the first number with x, and the second number with y. Now let's write these two equations to find the numbers.
x + 2y = 4
2x + y = 17
We can solve using the substitution method:
x = 4 - 2y
2x + y = 17
2 (4 - 2y) + y = 17
8 - 4y + y = 17
-3y = 9
y = -3
Now plug the value of y in to find x:
x + 2y = 4
x + 2(-3) = 4
x + -6 = 4
x = 10
So, the first number is 10, and the second number is -3.

A trapezoid has sides of length 5 millimeters, 2 millimeters, 5 millimeters, and 6 millimeters.
What is the perimeter?
millimeters
Answer:
18 millimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of any shape is the sum of the sides. A trapezoid has four sides, so the perimeter is found by adding the four side lengths together.
The trapezoid in this problem has side lengths of 5 mm, 2 mm, 5 mm, and 6 mm.
Add the sides together.
5 mm + 2 mm + 5 mm + 6 mm
7 mm + 5 mm + 6mm
12 mm + 6 mm
18 mm
The perimeter of the trapezoid is 18 millimeters.

Show that 3 · 4^n + 51 is divisible by 3 and 9 for all positive integers n.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello, please consider the following.
[tex]3\cdot 4^n+51=3\cdot 4^n+3\cdot 17=3(4^n+17)[/tex]
So this is divisible by 3.
Now, to prove that this is divisible by 9 = 3*3 we need to prove that
[tex]4^n+17[/tex] is divisible by 3. We will prove it by induction.
Step 1 - for n = 1
4+17=21= 3*7 this is true
Step 2 - we assume this is true for k so [tex]4^k+17[/tex] is divisible by 3
and we check what happens for k+1
[tex]4^{k+1}+17=4\cdot 4^k+17=3\cdot 4^k + 4^k+17[/tex]
[tex]3\cdot 4^k[/tex] is divisible by 3 and
[tex]4^k+17[/tex] is divisible by 3, by induction hypothesis
So, the sum is divisible by 3.
Step 3 - Conclusion
We just prove that [tex]4^n+17[/tex] is divisible by 3 for all positive integers n.

Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
ax² + bx + c = 0 is rewritten as x² + (b/a)x + (b/2a)² = -c/a + (b/2a)²
A) 4x² + 9x + 5 = 0 --> x² + (9/4)x + (9/8)² = -5/4 + (9/8)²
= x² + (9/4)x + 81/64 = -5/4 + 81/64

Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is given thus:
Suppose that computer literacy among people ages 40 and older is being studied and that the accompanying tables describes the probability distribution for four randomly selected people, where x is the number that are computer literate. Is it unusual to find four computer literates among four randomly selected people?
x P(x)
0 0.16
1 0.25
2 0.36
3 0.15
4 0.08
Yes NoANSWER:
The odds that this will occur according to the chart are 0.08, or 8%, so although this is unlikely, it's not terribly unusual.
⇒ NO
So from the following we can say it is not unusual to find four (4) computer literates among four randomly selected people.
ok, so P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(0) = 0.16+0.25+0.36+0.15+0.08 = 1
Whereas the chance of finding four (4) out of four (4) computer iteration is low when compared to other factors.

Firstly, we will set y to be a constant. That is y= constant,j. The question directed us to "Find an equation of the plane that is parallel to the xz-plane and is located 28 units to the right of the xz-plane in standard perspective."
Recall that the value of y is equal to zero[0] for the xz plane. Therefore, as the question stated that the plane is located twenty-eight[28] units to the right, the required equation for the plane is equal to y = 28 which is the solution or answer to the problem.

Step-by-step explanation:
What we have to realize is that RS + ST = RT. Since we know the value of all, let's substitute inside the equation.
[tex]23 - 2x + 9x - 5 = 39[/tex]
Now let's try and solve for x by isolating the variable on one side.
Combine like terms:
[tex]7x + 18 = 39[/tex]
Subtract 18 from both sides:
[tex]7x = 21[/tex]

A bag contains 4 red, 6 blue, 4 yellow and 2 green marbles. Once a marble is selected, it is not replaced. What is the probability that in 3 successive draws you will get exactly one blue, one red and no green
Answer:
0.0857
Step-by-step explanation:
What we need is, B R -G, successively. We do not add each probability, but multiply them.
P(1st marble is B) = 6 / 16
P(2nd marble is R) = 4 / 15
*your sample space decreases because you took one marble already before, the Blue one
P(3rd marble is not Green) = 12/14
** it's 12 because you took 2 non-Green marbles before
*** it's 14 because you took 2 marbles before
To arrive at the final answer, just multiply all probability.
