Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Sheldon makes $8 profit

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction of the profit that belongs to Sheldon is ...

  Sheldon / Leonard = 2 / 5

  Sheldon / Total = 2 / (2 + 5) = 2/7

Then Sheldon's portion of the $28 profit is ...

  Sheldon's profit = 2/7 × $28 = $8

Sheldon makes $8 profit on the first item they sell.

Answers

2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

List all variables

Total people=120

year 11 students=120/2=60

year 10 students=60/3=20

subtract year 10 and 11 students from the total to get the number of year 9 students

year 9 students=120-60-20

=40

year9:year10

40:20

2:1

Value of variable 'n' as per the given condition number of 9 year students : number of 10 year students = n:1 is equals to 2.

What is variable?

" A variable is defined as the quantity which represents the change in value  as per the given condition in a mathematical problem."

According to the question,

Total number of students in school = 120

As per the conditions given we have,

Number of 11 year students = [tex]\frac{120}{2}[/tex]

                                               = 60 people

Number of 11year students = 3 × ( Number of 10 year students)

Number of 10 year students = [tex]\frac{Number of 11 year students}{3}[/tex]

                                                   = [tex]\frac{60}{3}[/tex]

                                                   = 20 people

Number of (11year + 10year +  9year ) students  = 120  

⇒ 60 + 20 + Number of 9 year students =120                                        

Number of 9 year students = 120 - 80

                                                 = 40 people

Substitute the value in the given condition  to get the value of the variable we get,

Number of 9 year students : Number of 10 year students = n:1

⇒40 : 20 = n: 1

n = 2

Hence, value of variable 'n' as per the given condition number of 9 year students : number of 10 year students = n:1 is equals to 2.

How can I use the scale factor to determine if a picture is an enlargement?

Answers

Answer:

You can use the scale factor to determine if a picture is an enlargement if the scale factor is greater than 1. If it is less than 1 like 0.9 then the picture would be a reduction because you would be multiplying the number by a number smaller than 1. Now if we have a scale factor greater than 1 let's say 3. Then the picture would be an enlargement because the number is greater than 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number — that is, go up on the number line. This rule works regardless of whether you start with a positive number or a negative number.

When subtracting a negative number, remember that the two back-to-back minus signs cancel each other out, leaving you with a plus sign.

Subtracting Negative and Positive Integers

To subtract integers, change the sign on the integer that is to be subtracted.

If both signs are positive, the answer will be positive.

Example: 14 - (-6) = 14 + 6 = 20

If both signs are negative, the answer will be negative.

Example: -14 - (+6) = -14 - 6 = -20

If the signs are different subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value. The sign will be the sign of the integer that produced the larger absolute value.

Example: 14 - (+6) = 14 - 6 = 8

Example: -14 - (-6) = -14 + 6 = -8

On expansion of the algebraic identity of [tex](a-b)^2[/tex], the expansion of [tex](\sqrt{10}-\sqrt{2})^2[/tex] is [tex]12-4\sqrt{5}[/tex]. Thus making b = 12 and c = 4.

Algebraic identities are expansion of powers of algebraic expressions.

One such algebraic identity is the expansion of [tex](a-b)^2[/tex]. It is given by:

[tex](a-b)^2 = a^2+b^2-2ab[/tex]

Given the question,

[tex](a-b)^2 = a^2+b^2-2ab[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{10}-\sqrt{2})^2 = ( \sqrt{10})^2+(\sqrt{2})^2 -2 ( \sqrt{10})(\sqrt{2})\\\\=10 + 2 - 2\sqrt{20}\\\\ =12 - 2\sqrt{2*2*5} \\\\= 12 -2*2\sqrt{5} \\\\=12-4\sqrt{5}[/tex]

Given the form, [tex]b - c\sqrt{5}[/tex],

On comparison,

b = 12

c = 4

loria has some dimes and quarters. If she has 18 coins worth a total of $2.25, how many of each type of coin does she have?

Answers

Answer:

dimes: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

she has 2$ in quarters and $0.25 in dimes

Answer:

10 Dimes and 5 Quarter

Step-by-step explanation:

Important info:

18 Coins worth a total of $2.25

Note:

Dimes = .10

Quarter = .25

10 Dimes = 1.00

4 Quarter = 1.00

Question to Answer:

How many each type of Coin does she have?

Solution:

Lets get rid of .25 in $2.25 :)

So that 1 Quarter..

2.00

Takes away 1.00 = 10 Dimes

Now we have 1 Quarter and 10 Dimes.

1.00 Left..

4 Quarter = 1.00

So now we have 5 Quarter and 10 Dimes..

Check Work:

5 Quarter = 1.25 and 10 Dimes = 1.00

1.25+1.00=

$2.25

Hence. Loria has 5 Quarter and 10 Dimes.

{ Couldn't figure out 18 Coins worth a total of $2.25 the closest I could get was 15 Coins worth a total of $2.25}
