Rajesh gave ½ of his provident fund to his wife, ¼ to his son and the remainder was to be divided equally between his two brothers so that each brother got Rs 10000. What was the amount of provident fund ?​

Answers

Answer 1
1/2 was for his wife so 1/2 was left
from the 1/2, 1/4 went to the son so 1/4 was left
1/4 was divided to two brothers which are 1/8 for each brother --> 1/8 = 10000
therefore 10000 *8 = 80000 = 100% of the fund
Answer 2
Answer:  Rs 80000

This is the number 80 thousand

==========================================================

Explanation:

1/2, aka 2/4, of the original fund was given to his wife and 1/4 was given to his son. That totals 3/4 since 2/4+1/4 = (2+1)/4 = 3/4.

In short, 3/4 of the fund is distributed between the wife and son. That leaves 1/4 of the fund for the two brothers to share equally.

Imagine a cake cut into quarters. Then cut each slice in half to get eighths, i.e. there are 8 equal slices. This means each brother gets 1/8 of the fund.

Since each brother got Rs 10000, this must mean the original fund is worth 8*10000 = 80000

Taking 1/8 of Rs 80000 will get us Rs 10000 for each brother.

----------------------------------

Checking the answer:

original fund amount = 80000

1/2 of 80000 = 40000 is the amount the wife gets

1/4 of 80000 = 20000 is the amount the son gets

That totals 40000+20000 = 60000 leaving 80000-60000 = 20000 leftover for the two brothers to share. Cut that 20 thousand figure in half to arrive at Rs 10000 for each brother. These steps help confirm the answer.

----------------------------------

Another method using algebra:

x = original amount of the fund

W = x/2 = 2x/4 = half of the fund = amount wife gets

S = x/4 = quarter of the fund = amount the son gets

W+S = (2x/4) + (x/4) = (2x+x)/4 = 3x/4

W+S represents the sum of the wife's and son's amounts.

We'll subtract this from the original amount x to find out what's left

x - (W+S) = x - (3x/4) = (4x/4) - (3x/4) = (4x-3x)/4 = x/4

This shows that 1/4 of the fund is left over after distributing to the wife and son.

The amount x/4 is then cut in half to get x/8 to represent the amount each brother gets. We're told that amount is Rs 10000

So,

x/8 = 10000

x = 8*10000

x = 80000

The original fund is worth Rs 80000

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to line m and passes through the point (3, 2)?

Answers

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope of line m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 3) ← 2 points on the line

m = [tex]\frac{-3-2}{0-(-2)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-5}{0+2}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{-\frac{5}{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] , then

y = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation in slope- intercept form

To find c substitute (3, 2 ) into the partial equation

2 = [tex]\frac{6}{5}[/tex] + c ⇒ c = 2 - [tex]\frac{6}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

y = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] ← equation of perpendicular line

If the sides of a rectangle with area 12cm² are (3x-2) and (x+1)
a)X-? b)P-?​

Answers

The sides of a rectangle with area 12cm² are (3x-2) and (x+1).We know, area of a rectangle = length × breadthTherefore, by the problem

[tex](3x - 2)(x + 1) = 12 \\ = > {3x}^{2} - 2x + 3x - 2 = 12 \\ = > {3x}^{2} + x - 2 = 12 \\ = > {3x}^{2} + x - 12 - 2 = 0 \\ = > {3x}^{2} + x - 14 = 0 \\ = > {3x}^{2} + 7x - 6x - 14 = 0 \\ = > x(3x + 7) - 2(3x + 7) = 0 \\ = > (x - 2)(3x + 7) = 0 \\ = > x = 2 \: \: \: or \: \: \: \frac{ - 7}{3} \\ [/tex]

But a negative number cannot be the side of a rectangle.So, x = 2 cmNow, length = (3x - 2) = (3 × 2 - 2) cm = (6 - 2) cm = 4 cmBreadth = (x + 1) = (2 + 1) cm = 3 cm.We know, perimeter of a rectangle = 2( length + breadth)Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle

[tex] = 2(4 + 3)cm \\ = 2 \times 7cm \\ = 14cm[/tex]

Answer:

The value of x is 2 cm and the perimeter of the rectangle is 14 cm.

Hope you could get an idea from here.

Doubt clarification - use comment section.

So first of all u have to make an equation. u know that length times width is the area 12. (3x-2) multiplied by (x+1) which is 3x^2+3x-2x-2 then simplified its 3x^2+x-2. THEN MAKE IT EQUAL TO 12 BC 12 IS THE AREA. so 3x^2+x-2=12 then use the quadratic formula to find x u can either use quadratic formula or factorising. I used factorising to get (x-2)(3x+7)=0 x=2 or x=-7/3. Sub in 2 into the equation 3x^2+x-2=12 to get 3(2)^2+2-2=12 so it will be 36+2=38 and then 38-2=36. That doesn’t sum up 12 so that isnt x. Then sub in -7/3 as x. So 3(-7/3)^2+(-7/3)-2. When u multiple that out it will give you 12. SO X IS 12. Then to work out the perimeter double the sides given (3x-2) and (x+1). That will be 6x-4+2x+2. Simplify to get to 8x-2. Then sub in your x (-7/3) to get 392/9. If u want u can leave it as a fraction or decimal 43.55555… where 5 is recurring. That is your perimeter. It looks confusing but trust me you will get :). Thank you

The value of k to the nearest integer is 21

Let the number of international tourist arrivals in Russia in 2011 be k

If the number of international tourist arrivals in Russia in 2012 was 13.5% greater than in 2011 will be expressed as:

k = 24.7 - (13% of 24.7)

k = 24.7 - (0.135 * 24.7)

k = 24.7 - 3.3345

Answers

Answer:

  20.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The population is given by the exponential function ...

  p = 16000·(1 +0.022)^t

When p = 25000, we can find the value of t by taking logarithms.

  log(25000/16000) = t·log(1.022) . . . . . divide by 16000, take the log

  t = log(25/16)/log(1.022) ≈ 20.5 . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

It will take about 20.5 years for the population to reach 25000.
