There are 81 athletes who joined a parade. Four-ninths of them are basketball players. How many basketball players joined the parade?

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = # of boxes of felt-tip pens.

(x)(3.44)+(4x)(4.41) = 63.24

21.08x = 63.24

x = 3

Because x = 3, the man bought 3 boxes of felt-tip pens and 12 boxes of ballpoint pens.

If the total cost of two umbrellas and one cap is is $20 the total cost for one umbrella and two caps is $16 then the price of one umbrella is $8 and price of one cap is $4.

Given that the total cost of two umbrellas and one cap is is $20 the total cost for one umbrella and two caps is $16.

We have to find the price of one umbrella and one cap.

We have to form equations first to find the price of umbrella and cap.

Equation of two variables look like ax+by=c. It can be a linear equation, quadratic equation or a cubic equation.

let the price of umbrella be x and price of cap is y.

We know that total cost is equal to price of one unit multiplied by the units.

According to question.

2x+y=20----------1

x+2y=16-----------2

Multiply equation 2 by 2 and then subtract resulted equation from equation 1.

2x+y-2x-4y=20-32

-3y=-12

y=-12/-3

y=4

put the value of y in equation 2 to get the value of x.

x+2y=16

x+2*4=16

x+8=16

x=16-8

x=8

Hence the price of one umbrella is $8 and the price of one cap is $4.

The number of cuts from a 20% length is 2 and the number of 20' angle are needed in order to have the 100 pieces is 5

From the information given;

The bricklayer needs = 100 pieces of angle

The number of cuts = 54

Length of cuts = 3/ 16'' Inches

a. To determine the number of cuts form a 20% length, we have to multiply the length by the percentage and by the initial number of cuts

= 20/ 100 × 3/ 16 × 54

= 0. 2 × 0. 1875 × 54

= 2. 0

The number of cuts would be 2

b. To determine the number of pieces of 20' angle to have 100 pieces we would divide the initial number of pieces by the angle

= 100/ 20

= 5 pieces

The number of pieces of 20' angle is 5

Thus, the number of cuts from a 20% length is 2 and the number of 20' angle are needed in order to have the 100 pieces is 5

Answer:

  150 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of exterior angles is 360°. We can use this fact to find the number of sides. The perimeter is the total length of all of the congruent sides.

The measure of an exterior angle of the regular polygon is the supplement of the adjacent interior angle:

  exterior angle = 180° -156° = 24°

The total of n of these angles is 360°, so n is ...

  24°×n = 360°

  n = 360°/24° = 15

The polygon has 15 exterior angles, hence 15 sides

The perimeter is the total length of the 15 congruent sides:

  P = 15×(10 cm) = 150 cm

The perimeter of the regular polygon is 150 cm.

The product of the ages 2 years from today is 924

Let the ages of the three cousins be x, y and z. If the product of their ages is 1716, hence;

xyz = 1716

If the product of their ages last year is 1320, then;

(x-1)(y-1)(z-1) = 1320

Two years ago, the product of their ages will be;

(x-2)(y-2)(z-2) = 1320- (1716-1320)

(x-2)(y-2)(z-2) = 1320-396

(x-2)(y-2)(z-2) =924

Hence the product of the ages 2 years from today is 924

The probability that a member of the Senate (selected randomly) has a law degree is approximately 0.4167 or 41.67%.

When the odds are given as "1 in 1.4," it means that there is 1 chance of success (having a law degree) for every 1.4 chances of failure (not having a law degree).

To find the probability that a member of the Senate (selected randomly) has a law degree, you can use the formula:

Probability = 1 / (1 + Odds)

In this case, the odds are 1 in 1.4, so the probability is:

Probability = 1 / (1 + 1.4) ≈ 1 / 2.4 ≈ 0.4167

So, the probability that a member of the Senate (selected randomly) has a law degree is approximately 0.4167 or 41.67%.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll say that Sana's age is A, Rabia's age is B, and Saleem's age is C.

A + B + C = 47

Three years ago, everyone was three years younger, so we can write the expression as:

(A-3) + (B-3) + (C-3) = x

x is the total age three years ago.

The above equation is the same thing as:

A + B + C - 9 = x

Since we know that A + B + C is 47, we use that number instead.

47 - 9 = x

38 = x

So three years ago, their total age was 38 years old.

Answer:

Width = 5.5ft, Length = 8ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Rectangle = Length x Width

Let w be the Width of the rectangle.

From the information given from the question,

Length = 2w - 3 (3ft less than twice the width)

Area of Rectangle = [tex](2w-3)w\\=2w^{2} -3w[/tex] = 44

Now we can solve for w to find the dimensions.

[tex]2w^{2} -3w-44=0[/tex] (Quadratic Equations)

We can use the Quadratic formula to find w.

[tex]w=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}[/tex]

Since a = 2, b = -3 and c = -44,

[tex]w=\frac{-(-3)+/-\sqrt{(-3)^{2}-4(2)(-44) } }{2(2)} \\= 5.5 or -4 (reject)[/tex]

We reject negative values here.

Therefore, the width of the Rectangle = 5.5ft

While the length of the rectangle = 2(5.5) - 3 = 11 - 3 = 8ft

If 3 people take the day off, they will need (9 + 3/5) hours to mow the lawn. The correct option is B.

Let's say that each person works at a rate R.

8 people can mow the lawn in 6 hours, then we can write:

(8*R)*6 hours = 1 lawn.

Solving for R:

R = (1/48 lawns per hour).

If 3 people take the day off, then the lawn is mowed by 5 people in a time T, then we need to solve:

(5*R)*T = 1 lawn.

Replacing the value of R:

(5/48 lawns per hour)*T = 1 lawn.

Then we have:

T = (48/5) hours.

We can rewrite that as:

T = (45/5 + 3/5) hours

T = 9 + 3/5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of either a yellow or a red ball being drawn if only one is drawn is 7/16.

The probability is the measure of the likelihood of an event to happen. It measures the certainty of the event. The formula for probability is given by; P(E) = Number of Favourable Outcomes/Number of total outcomes.

According to the given question.

Numnber of yellow balls = 2

Number of green balls = 3

Number of red balls = 5

Number of black balls = 6

So,

The total number of balls in a bag = 2+ 3+ 5 + 6 = 16

And,

The sum of yellow and red ball = 2 + 5 = 7

Therefore,

The probability of either a yellow or a red ball being drawn if only one ball is drawn

= [tex]\frac{total\ number\ of \ red \ and \ yellow\ balls }{Total\ number\ of \ balls}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{7}{16}[/tex]

Hence, the probability of either a yellow or a red ball being drawn if only one is drawn is 7/16.
