Alice and Bob each have a certain amount of money. If Alice receives $n$ dollars from Bob, then she will have $4$ times as much money as Bob. If, on the other hand, she gives $n$ dollars to Bob, then she will have $3$ times as much money as Bob. If neither gives the other any money, what is the ratio of the amount of money Alice has to the amount Bob has?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 31 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the following:

Alice's amount = P

Bob's amount = Q

Amount received = n

If Alice receives $n$ dollars from Bob ;then she will have $4$ times as much money as Bob.

P + n = 4(Q - n)

P + n = 4Q - 4n

P = 4Q - 4n - n

P = 4Q - 5n - - - - (1)

If, on the other hand, she gives $n$ dollars to Bob, then she will have $3$ times as much money as Bob

P - n = 3(Q + n)

P - n = 3Q + 3n

P = 3Q + 3n + n

P = 3Q + 4n - - - - - - (2)

Equating both equations - (1) and (2)

4Q - 5n = 3Q + 4n

4Q - 3Q = 4n + 5n

Q = 9n

Express P in terms of n, use either equation (1) or (2)

From equation 2:

P = 3Q + 4n

Substituting Q = 9n

P = 3(9n) + 4n

P = 27n + 4n

P = 31n

Alice's amount = P, Bob's = Q

Ratio = P:Q

31 : 9

Answer 2

Answer:

31:9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $A$ and $B$ be the amount of money Alice and Bob have, respectively, at the beginning. We know that

\begin{align*}

A + n &= 4(B - n),\\

A - n &= 3(B + n).

\end{align*}

Simplifying, we have

\begin{align*}

A + 5n &= 4B, \\

A &= 3B + 4n.

\end{align*}Subtracting the first equation from the second gives $5n = B - 4n$, so $B = 9n$. Substituting this into the first equation gives $A + n = 4(9n - n)$, from which we get $A = 31n$.

Therefore, the desired ratio is $\frac{A}{B} = \frac{31n}{9n} = \boxed{\dfrac{31}{9}}$.

The mean number of catfish in all 6 samples is approximately 5.7. If 200 fish are in the pond, which proportion can be used to predict the number of catfish in the population? StartFraction 5.7 over 20 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 200 EndFraction StartFraction 5.7 over 20 EndFraction = StartFraction 200 over x EndFraction StartFraction 34 over 20 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 200 EndFraction StartFraction 8 over 20 EndFraction = StartFraction 20 over x EndFraction

Answers

Answer: The correct option is 5.7/20 = x/200

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the diagram attached for more details.

From the 7-column by 2-row table drawn, you can determine that the mean number of catfish as given in the question is derived as follows;

Mean = Summation of observed data / Number of observations

Mean  = (3 + 5 + 7 + 5 + 6 + 8)/6

Mean = 34/6

Mean = 5.6667

Mean ≈ 5.7

Also the mean number of all fish is derived as follows;

Mean = Summation of observed data / Number of observations

Mean = (20 + 20 + 20 + 20 + 20 + 20)/6

Mean = 120/6

Mean = 20

Using relative frequency, we can confidently predict the number of catfish population in the pond. This simply means, if the mean number of catfish is 5.7 and the mean number of all fish is 20, then the relative frequency would be 5.7 over 20 of the total fish population.

Hence, if there is a total of 200 fish in the pond then to predict the proportion which would be catfish can be expressed as follows;

StartFraction 5.7 over 20 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 200 EndFraction.

OR better expressed as;

5.7/20 = x/200

Answer:

5.7/20 = x/200

So, the coordinates are:

[tex]x_2 = 1\\x_1 = -8\\y_2 = -10\\y_1 = 8[/tex]

Equation of a line is given as:

[tex]y =mx+c[/tex]

Triangle ABC is rotated 45° about point X, resulting in triangle EFD. Triangle A B C is rotated 45 degrees about point X to form triangle E F D. The lengths of sides A C and D E are congruent, the lengths of sides A B and E F are congruent, and the lengths of sides D F and C B are congruent. If EF = 4.2 cm, DF = 3.6 cm, and DE = 4.5 cm, what is CB? 3.3 cm 3.6 cm 4.2 cm 4.5 cm

Answers

Answer:

CB = 3.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, triangle ABC is rotated about point X which results in triangle EFD. Since triangle ABC is rotated it retains its shape and dimensions. This means that triangle ABC is parallel to triangle EFD ie, ABC≈EFD, also both dimensions will be congruent.

Thus

AB = EF

BC = FD

AC = ED

CB = DF

BA = FE

CA = DE

Since length of side DF = length of side CB, and DF = 3.6 cm. Therefore, CB = DF = 3.6 cm

Length of CB = 3.6 cm

answer, make sure to define the variables you used.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of shoelace produced be S and time taken to produce then be T

If the number of shoelaces it produces is proportional to the time, this can be expressed using a direct relationship as:

S∝T

S = kT where

k is the proportionality constant

If 12 laces of shoes can be produced in 3 minutes, then S = 12 and T = 3

The relationship above on substitution becomes

12 = 3k

k = 12/3

k = 4

If the proportionality constant is 4, then the equation representing the relationship will be:

s = 4t

Answer: y = 4x (y = shoelaces & x = minutes)

Step-by-step explanation: We know that 12 shoelaces are produced in 3 minutes and that the ratio of shoelaces produced to minutes spent is proportional. We can figure out, therefore, that if you multiply the number of minutes by 4, you will get the number of shoelaces. As an equation, this would be y = 4x (y = shoelaces & x = minutes).

Avery wants to buy a car and has a choice between two different banks. One bank is offering a simple interest rate of 3.2% and the other bank is offering a rate of 3% compounded annually. If Avery decides to deposit $7,000 for 5 years, which bank would be the better deal? 1. a simple interest rate of 3.2% 2. a compound interest rate of 3%

Answers

Answer: a simple interest rate of 3.2% will be the better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the compounded interest formula:  

A = P (1 + r/n) nt  

Where:  

A = Future value of investment (principal + interest)  

P = Principal Amount  

r = Nominal Interest Rate (decimal form, 3/100= 0.03)  

n= number of compounding periods in each year (1)  

Replacing with the values given  

A = 7000 (1+0.03/1)^(1x5)

A = 7000( 1.03)^5 = $8,114.92

For simple interest:

I = p x r x t  

Where:  

I = interest  

Replacing with the values given:

I = 7000 x (3.2/100) x 5 = $1,120

Adding the principal amount: 7000+1120 = $8,120

Since 8,120 (simple) >8,114.92(compound)

a simple interest rate of 3.2% will be the better deal.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality states that the amount that Yvonne drives is more than 540 miles.  Since h represents the number of hours, we know that 69 probably means the number of miles Yvonne can drive per hour.  Finally, 126 shows the amount of miles that Yvonne has already driven.
