A sixth grade class has 12 boys and 24 girls.

For every 2 boys, there are 4 girls. Do you agree with this statement? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to solve this question is to use ratios. The first ratio to make is 12:24. This represents how there are 12 boys for 24 girls. Ratios remain equivalent as long as both sides of the ratio are simplified by the same number. So, you can divide both sides by 6. When you divide both sides you get 2:4. Therefore, there are 2 boys for 4 girls.

There are 11 counters in a bag.
8 of the counters are green.
3 of the counters are blue.
Sid takes at random two counters from the bag.
Work out the probability that Sid takes one counter of each colour.

Answers

Answer:

For a green and a blue  P1 = 8/11 * 3/10 = (80 * 33) / 110^2 = .218

For a blue and a green  P2 = 3/11 * 8/10 = (30 * 88) / 110^2 = .218

The probabilities are the same

The probability that Sid takes one counter of each color green and blue from the 11 counters in a bag is 48/121.

What is an additional rule of probability?

When two events P(A) and P(B) occurs one time in an event of which occurs two times. Then the probability of occurring exactly one time both events is,

[tex]P=P(A)\times P(B)+P(B)\times P(A)[/tex]

There are 11 counters in a bag. In which,

8 of the counters are green.3 of the counters are blue.

Sid takes at random two counters from the bag. Probability that Sid takes green counter is,

[tex]P(A)=\dfrac{8}{11}[/tex]

The probability that Sid takes blue counter is,

[tex]P(A)=\dfrac{3}{11}[/tex]

The probability that Sid takes one counter of each color is,

[tex]P=\dfrac{8}{11}\times\dfrac{3}{11}+\dfrac{3}{11}\times\dfrac{8}{11}\\P=\dfrac{24}{121}+\dfrac{24}{121}\\P=\dfrac{48}{121}[/tex]

Thus, the probability that Sid takes one counter of each color green and blue from the 11 counters in a bag is 48/121.

Answer:

2x + 1 = 11.

2x + 1 - 1 = 11 - 1 (subtracting both sides by the same number)

2x = 10.

A pancake recipe calls for 4 cups of flour and 3 cups of milk. Does a recipe calling for 2 cups of flour and 1.5 cups of milk use the same ratio of flour to milk?

Answers

Answer:

I think the answer is Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, 2 cups of flour can equal 4 cups of flour by multiplying by two. So 1.5 cups of milk, you multiply by two and it is equivalent to 3 cups of milk. So in the end, it is equal and it's basically half of the pancake recipe. Hope it helps!

Evaluate [tex]\frac{bd}{a}[/tex] + c if a=−2a=-2 , b=3b=3 , c=−12c=-12 , and d=−4

Answers

Answer:

{a,c,d,b} = {49/16,29/16,2,-31/48}

Step-by-step explanation:

  [1]    3a + c - 4d = 3

  [2]    -4a + 4c + d = -3

  [3]    -a - 2d + 3b = -9

  [4]     - d = -2

// Solve equation [4] for the variable  d

  [4]    d = 2

// Plug this in for variable  d  in equation [1]

  [1]    3a + c - 4•(2) = 3

  [1]    3a + c = 11

// Plug this in for variable  d  in equation [2]

  [2]    -4a + 4c + (2) = -3

  [2]    -4a + 4c = -5

// Plug this in for variable  d  in equation [3]

  [3]    -a - 2•(2) + 3b = -9

  [3]    -a + 3b = -5

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  c

 [1]    c = -3a + 11

// Plug this in for variable  c  in equation [2]

  [2]    -4a + 4•(-3a+11) = -5

  [2]    -16a = -49

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  a

  [2]    16a = 49

  [2]    a = 49/16

// Plug this in for variable  a  in equation [3]

  [3]    -(49/16) + 3b = -5

  [3]    3b = -31/16

  [3]    48b = -31

// Solve equation [3] for the variable  b

  [3]    48b = - 31

  [3]    b = - 31/48

// By now we know this much :

   a = 49/16

   c = -3a+11

   d = 2

   b = -31/48

// Use the  a  value to solve for  c

   c = -3(49/16)+11 = 29/16

Step-by-step explanation:

so bd/a+c= 3×(-4)/-2 +(-12)= -12/-2+(-12)=6+(-12)=6-12=-6

so the answer is -6
