john has 16 red balls and 12 black balls. what is the ratio ( in simplest form) of red balls to black balls

Answers

Answer 1
4 to 3 because both 16 and 12 can be divided by 4 which is the lowest number they have in common and that brings us to 4 to 3
Answer 2

The simplest form of the ratio of red to black balls is 4:3.

What is a ratio?

The ratio shows how many times one value is contained in another value.

Example:

There are 3 apples and 2 oranges in a basket.

The ratio of apples to oranges is 3:2 or 3/2.

We have,

Number of red balls = 16

Number of black balls = 12

The ratio of red to black balls.

= 16/12

= 4/3

Thus,

The ratio of red to black balls is 4:3.

james went out for a long walk . He walked 3 2/5 of the mile. then he sat down to take rest . After that he walked 5/7 of a mile. how far did he walk together

Answers

Answer:

Altogether James walked [tex]4\frac{4}{35}[/tex] miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves mixed fractions. Mixed fractions are first converted into proper fractions and then any operation can be performed on them.

Given

Distance of first walk = [tex]3\frac{2}{5}[/tex] of a mile

Distance of second walk = 5/7

In order to find how much he walked altogether, we have to find the sum of both fractions.

[tex]Total\ distance = 3\frac{2}{5}+\frac{5}{7}\\= \frac{17}{5}+\frac{5}{7}\\=\frac{17*7}{5*7} + \frac{5*5}{7*5}\\=\frac{119}{35} + \frac{25}{35}\\=\frac{119+25}{35}\\=\frac{144}{35}\\=4\frac{4}{35}[/tex]

Hence,

Altogether James walked [tex]4\frac{4}{35}[/tex] miles.

An airplane flying with the wind takes 2 hours to travel a distance of 360 miles.

The return trip takes 3 hours flying against the wind.

What is the speed of the airplane in still air and how fast is the wind blowing?

Answers

Answer: still air is 150mph. The wind speed is 30mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

X=speed of the plane, Y=speed of the wind.

360/2hours=180

360/3hours=120

2x=180+120

2x=300

X=150

The airplane in still air is 150mph

Add together

X+y=180

150+y=180

Y=180-150

Y=30mph

The wind speed is 30mph

y = 4x - 9

y = x - 3

Step 2: Solve for x

Substitute in y:                              4x - 9 = x - 3Subtract x on both sides:             3x - 9 = -3Add 9 to both sides:                     3x = 6Divide 3 on both sides:                x = 2

After 500 years one would have N nuclei of the original substance.

I guess it is exp( - lamda * t)

Lamda, the decay constant is the ln(2) over the half life.

So we get exp( -ln(2)/250 * 500) or exp ( -ln(4) )

Exercise 3.29. In a school there are four kindergarten classes, with 21, 24, 17 and 28 students. We choose one of the 90 kindergarten students randomly, and denote the number of students in her class by X. Find the expectation and variance of X.

Answers

Answer:

Expected mean = 23.2159

Variance = 15.89

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of kindergarten students (X) :

21 + 24 + 17 + 28 = 90

P(X):

21/ 90 = 0.233

24/90 = 0.2667

17/90 = 0.1889

28/90 = 0.3111

X : ____ 21 ____24 _____ 17 ______ 28

P(x) : _ 0.233 _ 0.2667 __ 0.1889 __ 0.3111

E(X) = Σ[(p)*p(x)]

(21 * 0.233) + (24 * 0.2667) + (17 * 0.1889) + (28 * 0.3111) = 23.2159

Var(X) : Σ(x²*p(x)) - E(x)²

x² * p(x) = (21^2 * 0.233) + (24^2 * 0.2667) + (17^2 * 0.1889) + (28^2 * 0.3111) - 23.2159^2

Find the equation of a line that passes through the point (2,-5) and is perpendicular to the y-axis. Do not put any spaces in your answer.

Answers

Answer:

y=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the line

Lines can be expressed in several forms. The slope-intercept form of the line is:

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope of the line and m is the y-intercept.

If the line is perpendicular to the y-axis, then it's a horizontal line. Horizontal lines have slope m=0, thus, the equation is:

y = b

To find the value of b, just substitute the given point:

-5=b

The equation of the line is:

y=-5
