The ratio of the number of boys and girls in a college is 7:8. If the percentage increase in the number of boys and girls be 20% and 10% respectively, what will be the new ratio?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys : Girls = 7 : 8

Let the number of boy = 7x

The number of girls = 8x

Number of boys after 20% increase = 120% of 7x

                                                            = 1.2 * 7x

                                                             = 8.4 x

                               

Number of girls after 10% increase = 110% of 8x

                                                           = 1.1 * 8x

                                                           = 8.8x                    

After increase in number of boys & girls = 8.4x : 8.8x

                      = 84 : 88    { reduce to simplest form by giving by 4th table}

                     = 21 :  22

2.imaginary
3.curved
4.has two endpoints
5.endless

Answers

Answer:

Hi there!

Step-by-step explanation:

In my opinion, the answer should be 1 (and maybe 4)

We can tell 1)has no width is the answer because the lines the one dimensional.

So the answer has to be number 1.

And...

Number 4 might also be correct because that would be a line segment (which goes on in both directions)

********************************************

So your answer should be letter 1 (also it might be letter 4 too, but I am not that sure)

A biased coin is tossed 4 times. The probability of heads on any toss is 0.4. Let X denote the number of heads that come up. Calculate: (i) ( ≤ 2) (ii) (1 ≤ ≤ 3)

Answers

Answer:

0.8208 ; 0.8448

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of tosses = 4

Probability of head on any toss :

P(head) = 0.4

Therefore ;

(1 - p(head)) = (1 - 0.4) = 0.6

Binomial probability :

P(X) = nCx * P^x * (1 - P) ^(n-x)

Where:

n = number of trials ; x = number of success ; P = probability of success.

P(X≤2) = P(0) + P(1) + p(2)

using binomial probability calculator to ensure faster computation:

P(X≤2) = 0.1296 + 0.3456 + 0. 3456

= 0.8208

B)

P(1 ≤ X ≤ 3) = P(1) + P(2) + P(3)

P(1 ≤ X ≤ 3) = 0.3456 + 0.3456 + 0.1536

= 0.8448

a bus is leaving the bus station at 5:45 p.m. and it takes 2 days 6 hours 30 minutes to reach a destination if the bus leaves on Friday what will be the day and time when it arrive it destination?​

Answers

Answer:

Monday, at 12:15 AM

Step-by-step explanation:

Do this question in parts. First, add 2 days to Friday to get Sunday at 5:45 PM. Then, add 6 hours to 5:45 to get 11:45 PM. Finally, add 30 minutes to 11:45 PM. That takes you to 12:15, and since you passed midnight, Sunday is now Monday. That means the bus arrives Monday, at 12:15 AM.

in each question,first make an inequality, then solve the inequality
1) A rectangle is 8cm long and b cm broad.find the range of values of b if the perimeter of the rectangle is not greater than 50 cm and not less than 18cm
2) the sides of a triangle are x cm,x+3 cm, find the lowest value of x.​

Answers

Answer:

a) The perimeter of a rectangle is written as:

P = 2*L + 2*W

where L is the length amd W is the width (broad in this case).

here we have:

L = 8cm and W = b

then the perimeter is:

P = 2*8cm + 2*b

And we know that:

18cm ≤ P ≤ 50cm

where ≤ is used because there is written "not more" and "not less", so the equalities are allowed

now we can replace P by the above equation:

18cm ≤ 16cm + 2*b ≤ 50cm

now we can subtract 16cm in each side and get:

18cm - 16cm ≤ 2*b ≤ 50cm - 16cm

2cm ≤ 2*b ≤ 34cm

Now we can divide each side by 2.

1cm ≤ b ≤ 34cm/2 = 17cm

1cm ≤ b ≤ 17cm.

b) Here we have missing information, so this can not be answered.

(only knowing that one side length is x, and another side length is x + 3cm, we can know that x > 0cm, so the minimum value of x is really close to 0cm)

Two trains leave stations 342 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One train travels at 105 miles per hour while the other travels at 85 miles per hour. How long will it take for the two trains to meet?Do not do any rounding.

Answers

Answer:

1.8 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is important to note that:

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

We have two trains.

Step 1

We have to find the distance that each train travelled.

Since Speed = Distance ÷ Time

Distance = Speed × Time

First train

It travels at 105 miles per hour

Distance travelled by first train =

105 × x hours

= 105x miles

Second Train

It travels at 85 miles per hour

Distance travelled by the second train = 85 miles × x hours

= 85x miles

We are told that: the two trains leave stations 342 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other

Hence, the time it would take each train to meet each other is calculated as:

105x + 85x = 342 miles

190x = 342 miles

x = 342/190

x = 1.8 hours.

I set a goal to drink 64 ounces of water a day. If I drink 3 1/10 ounces in the morning, 2 1/15 ounces at noon, and 6 5/20 ounces at dinner, how many more ounces of water do I have to drink to reach my goal for the day?

Answers

Answer:

You must drink  52 7/12 ounces or 52.58 ounces to reach the goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of the water already drank is found by adding the fractions

So

3 1/10 ounces + 2 1/15 ounces + 6 5/20

Converting into improper fractions

31/10 + 31/15+ 125/20

Now finding the lcm of 10,15,20

so  Factors of 10 = 2 x 5

Factors of 15 = 5 x 3

Factors of 20 = 2 x2 x5

LCM= 5x2x2x3= 60

31*6/60 + 31*4/60 + 125*3/60

= 186+124+375/60

= 685/60 = 11.42 ounces

The amount of water already drank is 11.42 ounces

The amount remaining is found by subtracting the amount drank from the total amount

so

64 ounces - 11.42= 52.58

It can be solved in fractions as

64- 11 5/12

Again taking making improper fraction and taking lcm

64- 137/12

= 768-137/12 = 631/12= 52 7/12 ounces

A car travels for 10 minutes
at 30 km/h and then for
20 minutes at 45 km/h. What is the average speed for the whole journey

Answers

Answer:

40 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

s = ut where s - Distance

u - Speed

t - Time

when t = 10 min

= 10/60 hours

S1 = 30 * 10/60

= 5km

when t= 20 min

= 20/60 hours

S2 = 45 *20/60

= 15 km

Then total distance = S1 + S2

= 5 + 15

= 20 km

Total time period = (10 + 20 ) / 60 hours

= 1/2 hours

Then average speed = U

S = UT

U = S/ T

= 20/ 0.5 km/ h

= 40 km/ h

15/16 - 11/12= 1/48

11/15 - 7/20= 23/60

Step-by-step explanation:

When adding or subtracting fraction with different denominators, we must find there LCM to be their new denominators. Then divide the new denominator by the old denominator, do for both fractions, then multiply the answer with the numerator, do for both fractions to get their new numerators. Then add or subtract the fractions. Then simplify the answer if needed.

Ex 1:

The LCM of 10 and 15 is 30

7/10 + 2/15

(30 ÷ 10=3, 3 × 7= 21)(30 ÷ 15= 2, 2 × 2=4)

=21/30 + 4/30= 25/30 or 5/6

With whole numbers, add the two whole numbers together. Then n add the fractions. Lastly add both of the answers together.

Ex:

The LCM of 3 and 2 is 6

2 3/3 + 3 1/2

=2 + 3= 5

= 3/3 + 1/2= 9/6 or 1 3/6 or 1 1/2

= 5 + 1 1/2

= 6 1/2

Always remember to simplify if possible or necessary.

Which statement is true about the sum of two rational numbers? It can always be written as a fraction. It can never be written as a fraction. It can always be written as a repeating decimal. It can never be written a terminating decimal. ?

Answers

Answer:

It can always be written as a fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

The importance of this question is to differentiate rational and irrational numbers.

Rational numbers can be written as a ratio, hence a fraction, or a repeating or terminating decimal.

Irrational numbers cannot be written as a ratio and will not have a terminating or repeating decimal.

So the first statement is true since the sum of two rational numbers will be rational.

The second statement is false since the sum of two rational numbers can absolutely be represented by a fractional ratio.

The third statement is false since the sum of two rational numbers is not always a repeating decimal.

The fourth statement is false since the sum of two rational numbers could be written as a terminating decimal.

Cheers.

I agree with the other person's response. The sum is always rational (it can always be written as a fraction of integers)

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

Here's a proof:

Let x and y be two rational numbers. This means

x = a/b

y = c/d

where a,b,c,d are integers. The denominators b and d cannot be 0.

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

Let's add x and y, then simplify

x+y = (a/b) + (c/d)

x+y = (ad/bd) + (bc/bd)

x+y = (ad+bc)/(bd)

This last expression is in the form p/q

p = ad+bc is an integer

q = bd is also an integer

we have a ratio or fraction of integers, therefore x+y is also rational

The total cost to repair Deborah's computer is repersented by0.08(50h)+50h, where h represents the number of hours it takes to repair the cmputer. What part of the expression repesents the amount of tax Deborah has to pay. Explain

Answers

Answer:

0.08(50h)

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of tax payable over a particular object or goods is always represented as a particular percentage of the total cost of buying or repairing an object.

From the above question we are given the expression,

0.08(50h) + 50h = Total amount Deborah is paying to repair her computer

Note that: Total amount payable by Deborah = Cost (Price or amount) of fixing the computer + Tax

h = number of hours required to repair the computer.

Hence, the Cost (amount) to repair the computer = 50 × h = 50h

In the expression, we have

0.08(50h) = 8% of 50h

Tax is always represented as percentage of the cost of fixing the computer

Hence, 0.08 or 8% of 50 h equal to = 0.08(50h) = The tax Deborah is paying.

Therefore, the expression repesents the amount of tax Deborah has to pay is 0.08(50h)
