Do 1/4 and 4/16 form a proportion

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There is a difference between FRACTION and PROPORTION.

Explanation of fraction:

On a card board sheet draw a square or rectangle or any simple shape of your choice. Divide your preferred shape into 4 equal parts. One portion or one part of the divided shape is 1/4. Three (3 ) parts of the divided shape equal 3/4. Also if the shape is divided into twenty (20). One (1) part is 1/20, sixteen(16) parts equal 16/20.

Explanation of Proportion:

If an item is shared in a proportion of 3:4,it means that A gets 3/(3+4) of what is to be shared , that is 3/7 of the bulk item to be shared. B gets 4/(3+4) of what is to be shared, that is 4/7 of the bulk item to be shared.

Also if an item is shared in a proportion of 16:20 , A gets 16/(16+20)=16/36 of Bulk item while B gets 20/(16+20)= 20/36 of the Bulk item being shared.

In effect Fractions and Proportions are related but different.

A farmer sells 8.8 kilograms of apples and pears at the farmer's market. 1 4 of this weight is apples, and the rest is pears. How many kilograms of pears did she sell at the farmer's market?

Answers

Answer: She sold 6.6kg of pears in the market.

Step-by-step explanation:

 Weight of apples and pears at the farmer's market.=8.8 kilograms

Weight of apples = 1/4

which is = 1/4 x 8.8kg = 2.2 kg

Weight of Pears =Weight of apples and pears - Weight of apples

= 8.8kg- 2.2kg

= 6.6kg

Two balls are picked in succession without replacement -4 white balls and 5 green balls let Y be the random representing the number of green balls. Find the value of the random variable Y.

Answers

Answer:

If Y represents the number of green balls then it can have values from 0- 5

that is it can have all the value  0,1,2,3,4 and 5.

The probability of getting both balss green without replacement is 0.27778

Step-by-step explanation:

If the balls are not replaced then this is the dependent event .

The probability of getting the first ball is given be = 5/9

where 5 is the number of green balls and 9 is the total number of balls.

The probability of getting the second ball green given that first is also green is  = 5/9* 4/8= 20/72= 0.2778

If Y represents the number of green balls then it can have values from 0- 5

that is it can have all the value  0,1,2,3,4 and 5.

0 means there can be no green balls or white balls.

1 means there can be one green ball.

2 means there can be 2 green balls and so on.

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of probability to calculate the chance of an event to occur, so you have to:

the chance of the event is 0.2778%

So organizing the information given in the statement is:

If the balls are not replaced then this is the dependent event .The probability of getting the first ball is given be = 5/95 is the number of green balls and 9 is the total number of balls.

So with this information we can write that:

[tex]5/9* 4/8= 20/72= 0.2778[/tex]

To find:

Where the student made any errors?

Solution:

We have,

[tex]-5v>55[/tex]

On dividing both sides -5 change the sign of equality because -5 is a negative number.

A teacher purchased 20 calculators and 10 measuring tapes for her class and paid $495. Later, she realized that she didn't order enough supplies. She placed another order of 8 of the same calculators and 1 more of the same measure tape and paid $178.50.



The system represents the situation



`20c+10m=495`

`8c+1m=178.50`





Find the cost of one calculator and the cost of one measure tape using one of our methods of solving systems.

Answers

Answer:

Equations are

20c + 10m = 495..............(1)

8c + 1m = 178.5.................(2)

Now ,  equation (2) * 10 = 80c + 10m = 1785...........(3)

So, Eq. (3) -  Eq(1) =

80c + 10m - 20c - 10m = 1785 - 495

60c = 1290

c= 21.5

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

Now place the value of c in Eq (2)

So , m =6.5
