The sides of an oblong are in the ratio of 4:3. The oblong has a length of 12 cm and is increased by a scale factor of 2.5. What will the increased width be

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

If the scale factor is increased in 2.5, the increased width will be:

22.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that an oblong is longer than it is wide, by this reason, the ratio of 4:3 could mean, if we give a number, by each 4 cm in the length, there is 3 cm in the width, in this form, if the oblong has a length of 12 cm, the width is:

4 cm ⇒ 3 cm12 cm ⇒ x

So:

[tex]x=\frac{12 *3}{4}[/tex][tex]x=\frac{36}{4}[/tex][tex]x=9[/tex]

Then, the original width is 9 cm, as the scale factor must be increased 2.5, we can multiply the found width to obtain the increased width:

Increased width = 9 cm * 2.5Increased width = 22.5 cm

As you can see, the increased widt will be 22.5 cm.

Pranav paints a wall of area 53m^2 one litre of paint covers an area of 4.5m^2 paint is sold in 2.5 litre tins, each costing $24.75 Pranav buys the least number of tins to paint this wall work out the cost of the paint

Answers

Answer:

The cost of the paint will be $123.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Pranav paints a wall of area 53m ^ 2, and one liter of paint covers an area of 4.5m ^ 2, and paint is sold in 2.5 liter tins, each costing $ 24.75, if Pranav buys the least number of tins to paint this wall, to determine the cost of the paint, the following calculation must be performed:

(53 / 4.5) = liters of paint needed

11.77 = liters of paint needed

11.77 / 2.5 = tins of paint needed

4.71 = tins of paint needed (rounds to 5)

5 x 24.75 = Total cost

123.75 = Total cost

The cost of the paint will be $123.75.

Calculate the marked price (original price) if

a. After 25% discount, the price of an article is Rs 7500,


please with explanation and calculation the answer should be Rs 10 000

Answers

To get the original price we are going to;

1) Subtract the discount percentage from 100 to get the original price percentage.

100 - 25 = 75 %

2) Now we are going to multiply the discounted price by 100.

7500 x 100 = 750,000

3) Now we are going to divide the discounted price by the original price percentage.

750,000 / 75 = 10,000

Therefore the original price is Rs 10,000

which ordered pair is a solution of the equation

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 4 = 7(x - 6)                    Remove the brackets

y - 4 = 7x - 42                    Add 4 to both sides

y = 7x - 42 + 4

y = 7x - 38                  

Note when you put this in slope, y intercept form, the ordered pair is easier to find.

Let x = 5

y = 7*5 - 38

y = 35 - 38

y = -3          (5,4) isn't right

Let x = 6

y = 7*6 - 38

y = 42 - 38

y = 4                 That does not work either.

The answer is D

A flight has 175 passengers. 3 of them will be chosen to get an upgrade to first class. How many groups of 3 are possible?

Answers

Answer:

877975

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total number of passengers, n = 175

Number who gets an upgrade, x = 3

Number of different groups who could get an upgrade :

We solve this using combination :

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!

175C3 = 175! ÷ (175 - 3)!3!

175C3 =175! ÷ (172)!3!

175C3 = 877975

Answers

Answer:

$120,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Provided that  

The price of the new car is $750,000

And, the saving percent is 16%

We need to calculate out the saving amount for the deposit

Therefore, the saving amount is

= $750,000 × 16%

= $120,000

A right circular cone has a radius of 6 inches and a slant length of 10 inches. A right cylinder has a radius of 8 inches and a height of 12 inches. How many cones full of water are needed to fill the cylinder

Answers

Answer:

6.4  cones full of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Radius of cone= 6inches

Slant height= 10 inches

Volume of cone= 1/3πr^2h

V= 1/3*3.142*6^2*10

V=  1/3*3.142*36*10

V=  1/3*1131.12

V= 377.04 cubic inches

Radius of right cylinder= 8 inches

Height= 12 inches

Volume of cylinder= πr^2h

Volume= 3.142*8^2*12

Volume= 3.142*64*12

Volume=2413.056 cubic inches

Hence the number of cone full of water needed to fill the cylinder is

=Volume of cylinder/volume of cone

=2413.056/377.04

=6.4  cones full of water

Answers

Given :

A shopkeeper earns a profit of Rs. 1 by selling a pencil and a loss of 20 paisa by selling an eraser.

To Find :

In a given day he had a loss of Rs. 10. On this day, he sold 35 pencils. How many erasers were sold on this day.

Solution :

Money earned by selling 35 pencils.

P = 35 × 1 = Rs 35 .

Now, it is given that he had a loss of Rs 10 .

Therefore, amount of loss done by money is :

E = 35 + 10

E = Rs 45

Now, number of erase sold :

[tex]n = \dfrac{E}{0.2}\\\\n = \dfrac{45}{0.2}\\\\n = 225\ erasers[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

Professor Rosencrantz flips a fair coin once. Professor Guildenstern flips a fair coin three times. What is the probability that Professor Rosencrantz obtains more heads than Professor Guildenstern

Answers

Answer:

9/13 = 0.6923

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by defining

A as event that head was flipped

B1 = event that coin is biased

B2 = event that it is unbiased

P(B1) = 3/5

P(B2) = 2/5

P(A|B1) = 3/4

P(A|B2) = 2/4 = 1/2

When we solve this using bayes theorem we have to find

p(B1|A) = [P(B1) x P(A|B1)]/[P(B1) x P(A|B1) + P(B2) x P(A|B2)

= 0.6 x 0.75 / 0.6 x 0.75 + 0.4x0.5

= 0.45/0.45+0.2

= 0.45/0.65

= 0.6923
