If h:k = 2:5, x:y=3:4 and 2h+x:k+2y = 1:2, find the ratio h-x: k-y.​

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

[tex]h:k=2:5,x:y=3:4,2h+x:k+2y=1:2[/tex]

To find:

[tex]h-x:k-y[/tex]

Solution:

We have, [tex]h:k=2:5[/tex] and [tex]x:y=3:4[/tex].

Let the values of h and k are 2a and 5a respectively.

Let the values of x and y are 3b and 4b respectively.

We have,

[tex]2h+x:k+2y=1:2[/tex]

It can be written as

[tex]\dfrac{2h+x}{k+2y}=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{2(2a)+(3b)}{5a+2(4b)}=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{4a+3b}{5a+8b}=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]2(4a+3b)=1(5a+8b)[/tex]

On further simplification, we get

[tex]8a+6b=5a+8b[/tex]

[tex]8a-5a=8b-6b[/tex]

[tex]3a=2b[/tex]

[tex]a=\dfrac{2b}{3}[/tex]

Now,

[tex]h-x:k-y=\dfrac{h-x}{k-y}[/tex]

[tex]h-x:k-y=\dfrac{2-3b}{5a-4b}[/tex]

[tex]h-x:k-y=\dfrac{2\times \dfrac{2b}{3}-3b}{5\times \dfrac{2b}{3}-4b}[/tex]

[tex]h-x:k-y=\dfrac{\dfrac{4b}{3}-3b}{\dfrac{10b}{3}-4b}[/tex]

On further simplification, we get

[tex]h-x:k-y=\dfrac{\dfrac{4b-9b}{3}}{\dfrac{10b-12b}{3}}[/tex]

[tex]h-x:k-y=\dfrac{-5b}{-2b}[/tex]

[tex]h-x:k-y=\dfrac{5}{2}[/tex]

[tex]h-x:k-y=5:2[/tex]

Therefore, the ratio [tex]h-x:k-y[/tex] is [tex]5:2[/tex].

Allen wants to have a mean of 90 on his math quizzes. So far, he has scored 86, 94, 88, 95, and 89. What is the least score that Allen needs on his next quiz to have a mean of 90?

Answers

Answer:

88

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{86 + 94 + 88 + 95 + 89 + x}{6} = 90[/tex]

The mean would be the sum of all the math quiz grades divided by the number of quizzes taken.

Solve for x:

[tex]86 + 94 + 88 + 95 + 89 + x = 540[/tex]

[tex]452 + x = 540[/tex]

[tex]x = 88[/tex]

Thus, Allen needs at least an 88 to obtain a mean of at least 90.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Area = 49\frac{25}{36}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Tile

[tex]Length = 4\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Width = 2\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

See attachment for dimension of the floor

Required

Determine the area covered by the carpet

From the attachment, the dimension of the floor is:

[tex]Length = 12\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Width = 5[/tex]

Calculate Area

[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]

[tex]Area = 12\frac{1}{4} * 5[/tex]

[tex]Area = 61\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

The area of the tiles is:

[tex]Area = 4\frac{5}{6} * 2\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{29}{6} * \frac{7}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{203}{18}[/tex]

[tex]Area = 11\frac{5}{18}[/tex]

So, the carpet area is:

[tex]Area = Floor\ Area - Tile\ Area[/tex]

[tex]Area = 61\frac{1}{4} - 11\frac{5}{18}[/tex]

To improper number

[tex]Area = \frac{245}{4} - \frac{208}{18}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]Area = \frac{2205 - 416}{36}[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{1789}{36}[/tex]

[tex]Area = 49\frac{25}{36}[/tex]

A pendulum's first swing has an arc of 36 inches. As the pendulum swings back and forth, the arc length for each successive swing is 95% of the previous swing. If this pattern continues, at which swing of the pendulum will the length of the arc be less than 27 inches? A. 5th B. 6th C. 7th D. 9th

Answers

Answer:

7th

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Arc length on first swing = 36 inches

After successive swing, arc length decreases by 95%

Length on 2nd swing = 0.95 * 36 = 34.2

Length on 3rd swing = 0.95 * 34.2 = 32. 49

Length on 4th swing = 0.95 * 32.49 = 30.8085

Length on 5th swing = 0.95 * 30.8085 = 29.268075

Length on 6th swing = 0.95 * 29.268075 = 27.80467125

Length on 7th swing = 0.95 * 27.80467125 = 26.4144376875

26.4144376875 < 27

Hence, length falls below 27 on 7th swing

If 54% of all people between the ages of 35 and 50 ride a bike, find the probability for a sample of 30 people in that age group exactly 15 ride a bike

Answers

Answer:

The probability is 0.1312

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, let us set up a binomial system

From the question, 54% ride a bike

Let p = people that rides a bike

54% = 54/100 = 0.54

p = 0.54

q = 1 - p = 1 -0.54 = 0.46 ( 46% do not ride bikes)

Now, for the binomial system, we have

P(X = 15) = 30 C 15 • p^15•q^15

We have;

30 C 15 * 0.54^15 * 0.46^15

= 0.131200268998

The probability is 0.1312

Answer:

[tex]x = 35.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that figure (HGFE) and figure (LKJI) are similar. Meaning that one must multiply a side of the figure (HGFE) by a number to get the corresponding side length from the figure (LKJI). To find this number, one must divide two corresponding sides.

[tex]\frac{KL}{FE}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{55}{17}[/tex]

Now to find a missing side in figure (LKJI) one must multiply its corresponding side by ([tex]\frac{55}{17}[/tex]) in figure (HGFE) to find the length of the missing side.

[tex]EF * \frac{55}{17} = JI\\\\11 * \frac{55}{17} = JI\\\\\frac{605}{17} = JI[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{605}{17}\\\\x=35.6[/tex]

Answer:

IJ ≈ 35.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the quadrilaterals are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{IJ}{EF}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{KL}{GH}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{IJ}{11}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{55}{17}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

17 IJ = 605 ( divide both sides by 17 )

IJ ≈ 35.6 ( to the nearest tenth )

area = 57√3 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

lower polygon:

3 is the base of the lower left triangle

cos 60° = 3/hypotenuse

hypotenuse = 6

height of triangle² = 6² - 3² = 45

height of triangle² = 36 - 9 = 27

height of triangle = √27 = √(9 x 3) = 3√3

area of lower polygon = 1/2(8+14)(3√3) = 33√3 cm²

upper parallelogram:

area = 8(3√3) = 24√3 cm²

The scale factor is the ratio of corresponding sides, image to original, that is

scale factor = [tex]\frac{AC}{DC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{25}{20}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\frac{AB}{DE}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3x-2}{2x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

4(3x - 2) = 10x

2x - 8 = 0 ( add 8 to both sides )
