Dan and Paul share some money in the ratio 9:5.
Dan decides this is unfair so he gives Paul £32 of his share to make the ratio 1:1.
How much did Paul originally have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Paul had £40 originally.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let d be the money Dan has and p be the money Paul has

Then according to the given situation,

[tex]\frac{d}{p} = \frac{9}{5}\\d = \frac{9p}{5}\ \ \ Equation\ 1[/tex]

Now from the statement, "Dan decides this is unfair so he gives Paul £32 of his share to make the ratio 1:1"

[tex]\frac{d-32}{p} = 1[/tex]     Eqn 2

From 2

[tex]d - 32 = p\\[/tex]

Putting d = 9p/5

[tex]\frac{9p}{5} - 32 = p\\9p - 160 = 5p\\9p-5p = 160\\4p = 160\\\frac{4p}{4} = \frac{160}{4}\\p = 40[/tex]

Checking

[tex]d = \frac{9(40)}{5} = \frac{360}{5} = 72\\\frac{d}{p} = \frac{72}{40} = \frac{9}{5}[/tex]

Hence,

Paul had £40 originally.

Mae ling earns a weekly salary of 400 plus a 6.5 commission on sales at a gift shop how much would she make in a work week if she sold 4300 worth of merchandise

Answers

Answer:

Mae Ling will make $679.5 in a week if she sells 4300 worth of merchandise.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Weekly salary of Mae Ling = $400

Commission rate = 6.5%

Mae ling's total weekly earning will be her salary plus her commission on the sales she does in the week.

Given that her sales for the said week are: $4300

Her commission will be:

[tex]Commission = 6.5\%\ of\ sales\\ = 0.065*4300\\=\$279.5[/tex]

Now to calculate her total salary, we will add the weekly salary and commission.

[tex]Total\ weekly\ Earning = Weekly\ Salary +\ Commission\\= \$400+\$279.5\\=\$679.5[/tex]

Mae Ling will make $679.5 in a week if she sells 4300 worth of merchandise.

What is the first thing you do before solving an adding fraction problem
Pls help

Answers

Answer:

The first thing you do is make the denominators equal on both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

As a example if you have the equation:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] =

you would multiply the denominator by the smallest multiple. I would do 2 * 5= 10

this would make the equation

[tex]\frac{x}{10} + \frac{x}{10} = ...[/tex]

next you have to do the same with the numerator.

so sence you multiplied the [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] by five you will get [tex]\frac{5}{10}[/tex]

same with the other fraction except you multiplied it by two.[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] x 2 = [tex]\frac{4}{10}[/tex]

next you add and simplify if needed

Answer:

3 simple steps

Step-by-step explanation:

1.     Make sure the bottom numbers ( the denominators ) are the same

       IF DIFFERENT find the LCD

2.    Add the top numbers (the numerators )

3.    simplify the fraction if needed

ex:  1/4 +1/4 = 2/4  (bottoms were the same) simplify  1/2

       1/3 + 1/6    LCD of 3 and 6 so make the bottom numbers 6

                         so multiply  1/3 x  2 = 2/6

        now you have 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6    simplify 1/2

7 apples cost $2.10. How many apples can I buy for $6.30

Answers

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation

If 7 apples are 2.10 then for 4.20 its 14 apples.   And 3 apples is 90 cents.  1 apple is 0.30.  So the amount you can buy is 21 because 6.30/0.3 is 21

Answer:

21

Explanation:

If 7 apples cost y cents, how many can you buy for x dollars?

As y cents buy 7 apples, y dollars will buy 7×100 apples.

Hence one dollar will buy 7×100y=700y apples and,

x dollars will buy 700y × x apples or 700x y apples.

Hence 7 apples multiplied by $6.30 divided by $2.10 will get you 21 apples.

The operator of a pumping station has observed that demand for water during early afternoon hours has an approximately exponential distribution with mean 100 cfs (cubic feet per second). Find the probability that the demand will exceed 170 cfs during the early afternoon on a randomly selected day. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

0.1827

Step-by-step explanation:

Given mean of exponential distribution = 100

==> 1/χ = 100  ==> χ = 1/100 ==> χ = 0.01

PDF of χ , f(x) = χe^(-χx), x ≥ 0

===> f(x) = 0.01e^(-0.01x), x ≥ 0

Now we find the probability that the demand will exceed 170 cfs during the early afternoon on a randomly selected day

P(X>170) = ∞∫170 f(x)dx

P(X>170) = ∞∫170 0.01 e^(0.01x) dx

P(X>170) = [e^(-0.01x) / -0.01]^∞  base 170

P(X>170) = -1 [e^-∞  - e^-0.01*170]

P(X>170) = e^-1.7

P(X>170) = 0.1827

The probability that the demand will exceed 170 cfs during the early afternoon on a randomly selected day is 0.1827

given that cosec A= -2, sec B= -2, A and B lie in the same quadrant. Find sin (2A+2B)

help me please,​

Answers

Answer:

sin (2A+2B) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

cosec A= -2 and sec B= -2, A and B lie in the same quadrant.

We need to find the value of sin (2A+2B).

[tex]A=cosec^{-1}(-2)\\\\=-30[/tex]

And

[tex]B=\sec^{-1}(-2)\\\\=120^{\circ}[/tex]

To find the value of sin (2A+2B) as follows :

sin [2(-30)+2(120)] = sin (-60+240)

=sin (180)

= 0

So, the value of sin (2A+2B) is qual to 0.
