there are 60 cows in a field .some are brown and the rest are white. Two thirds of the brown cows are less than one year old. Three quarters of the white cows are less than one year old. There are twelve more brown cows than white cows. what fraction of all the cows are less than one year old?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of white cows be x

Thus, the number of brown cows be (x+12)

Hence,

x+(x+12)=60

x+x+12=60

2x+12=60

2x+12-12=60-12

2x=48

Divide both parts of the equation by 2:

x=24 white cows

x+12=36 brown cows

The number of white cows are less than one year old:

[tex]\displaystyle\\\frac{3}{4}(24)=\\\\\frac{3(24)}{4}=\\\\ 3*6=\\\\ 18\ white\ cows[/tex]

The number of brown cows are less than one year old:

[tex]\displaystyle\\\frac{2}{3}(36)=\\\\ \frac{2(36)}{3}=\\\\ 2*12=\\\\24 \ brown \ cows[/tex]

The total number of cows are less than one year old:

[tex]18+24=42\ cows[/tex]

Thus

Fraction of all the cows are less than one year old:

[tex]\displaystyle\\\frac{42}{60}=\\\\\frac{6*7}{6*10}=\\\\\frac{7}{10} =\\\\ 0.7[/tex]

Since m(n(x)) = n(m(x)) = x, then m(x) and n(x) are inverse functions

What is the inverse of a function?

The inverse of a function is a function that can reverse into another function.

If we have function f and g, and f f(x) = y, then g is the inverse of f if and only if g(y) = x

Also, if f is a function f⁻¹ is the inverse of x and ff⁻¹(x) = f⁻¹f(x) = x

How to show that the composite fucntions are inverses?

Given the functions m(x) = x³ - 5 and n(x) = ∛(x + 5)

If m(x) and n(x) are inverse, then m(n(x)) = n(m(x)) = x

So, we proceed as follows

m(x) = x³ - 5

m(n(x)) = (∛(x + 5))³ - 5

m(n(x)) = x + 5 - 5

m(n(x)) = x + 0

m(n(x)) = x

Also,

n(x) = ∛(x + 5)

n(m(x)) = ∛(x³ - 5 + 5)

n(m(x)) = ∛(x³ - 0)

n(m(x)) = ∛(x³)

n(m(x)) = x

Since m(n(x)) = n(m(x)) = x, then m(x) and n(x) are inverse functions

To prepare one bowl of salad, 3 3/4 pounds of vegetables are required. How many pounds of vegetables are required to prepare one-third bowl of salad?

Answers

Applying the knowledge of fractions, the number of pounds of vegetables required to prepare 1/3 bowl of salad is: 1¼ pounds.

How to Solve Fractions?

In solving this problem, we would apply our knowledge of fractions as explained below.

One bowl of salad needs 3¾ pounds of vegetables

Let the number of pounds if vegetables needed for ⅓ bowl be represented as x. Therefore, we would have the following proportion:

1 bowl = 15/4 pounds of vegetables [i.e. 3¾]

⅓ bowl = x

Thus:

1/15/4 = ⅓/x

1/1 × 4/15 = 1/3 × 1/x

4/15 = 1/3x

Cross multiply

4(3x) = 1(15)

12x = 15

Divide both sides by 12

12x/12 = 15/12

x = 15/12

x = 5/4

x = 1¼ pounds

Therefore, applying the knowledge of fractions, the number of pounds of vegetables required to prepare 1/3 bowl of salad is: 1¼ pounds.

The required line representing the rise and the run of the line is created.

And the slope of the line in its simplest form is 9/-18.

Given a line is represented on the graph.

we need to create lines representing the rise and run of the line.

To find the slope of the line we need to determine the rise and run of the line.

The slope of a line is defined as the rise divided by the run, or the ratio of the rise to the run. It gives information about a line's slope in the coordinate plane. Finding the slope between two separate places is comparable to calculating the slope of a line.

The coordinates of the points are:

(9,0) = (x₁ , y₁)

(₋9 , 9) = (x₂ , y₂)

we know that slope (m) = rise/ run

rise  = y₂ ₋ y₁

= 9 ₋ 0

= 9

run = x₂ ₋ x₁

= ₋9 ₋ 9

= ₋18

hence the slope is 9/₋18

The required slope of the line is 9/-18.

Answers

The system of equation  4x - 3y = 3and  -8x + 6y = -6 has no solution as they are parallel lines.

What is system of equation?

When two or more linear equations are there we call them a system of equations.

Given a system of equations 4x - 3y = 3...(i) and -8x + 6y = -6...(ii) this is solvable as the number of variables is not more than the number of equations.

Now to solve for x or y first we have to eliminate one of the varibales by any arithmetic operation.

By observing we conclude that if we multiply equation(i) by 2 and then add both of them the x variable will cancel out and we can solve for y which is

      8x - 6y =  6

(+)  -8x + 6y = -6

As we can see here that both x and y are getting canceled therefore these two equations have no solution and hence they are parallel to each other(lines).
