the aquarium has 3 more yellow fish than green fish. 60% of the fish are yellow. how many green fish are in the aquarium? show your work.

Answers

Answer 1

The number of green fish are in the aquarium is 6.

Given that,

The aquarium has 3 more yellow fish than green fish.

60 percent of the fish are yellow.

Let us assume the green fishes be x and the yellow fishes are y.

Total no of fished = x + y.

And, y = x + 3

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

Now, put y = x + 3

So,  

60%(y+x)=y

[tex]\frac{60}{100}(x+3+x)=x+3[/tex]

60(2x+3)=100(x+3)

120x + 180 = 100x + 300

20x = 120

x = 6

Hence the number of green fishes are x=6

Which equation represents the line that is
perpendicular to the graph of 4x + 3y = 9 and
passes through (-2, 3)?
A. 3x-4y=-18
B. 3x+4y=18
C. 3x-4y=-6
D. 3x+4y=6

Answers

The equation that represents the line  that is perpendicular to the graph of 4x + 3y = 9 and passes through (-2,3) is

[tex]y = \frac{3}{4}x+\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

Let us revise some rules

1.   The product of the slopes of the perpendicular line is -1, that means if the slope of one line is m, then the slope of the other is [tex]\frac{-1}{m}[/tex]

2.  The slope of a line whose equation is ax + by = c is [tex]m = \frac{-a}{b}[/tex], where a is the coefficient of x and b is the coefficient of y

The equation of the given line is 4x + 3y = 9

[tex]m = \frac{-a}{b}[/tex]

whereas a is the coefficient of x and b is the coefficient of y

Therefore the coefficient of x = 4 and the coefficient of y = 3

a = 4 and b = 3

[tex]m = \frac{-a}{b}[/tex]

The slope of the perpendicular line to the given line is [tex]\frac{-1}{m}[/tex]

That means reciprocal the fraction and change its sign

The slope of the perpendicular line = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

The form of the equation is y = mx + b

- Substitute m by [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

y = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x + b

To find b substitute x and y in the equation by the coordinates

of a point on the line

The perpendicular line passes through point (-2 , 3)

x = -2 and y = 3

3 = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex](-2) + b

3 = [tex]\frac{-3}{2}[/tex]+ b

Add to both sides

[tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex] = b

y = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

The equation that represents the line  that is perpendicular to graph of 4x + 3y = 9 and passes through (-2,3) is y = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

Hence the answer is perpendicular to graph of 4x+3y=9 and passes through (-2,3) is [tex]y = \frac{3}{4}x+\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

At Berry Fun Farm, Liz picked 12 pints of berries. If 25% of the pints were blueberries, how many pints of blueberries did Liz pick?

Answers

Answer: 25% of 12 is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there 25% is 1/4 of 100%, you'd need to divide.

There are 12 pints of berries.

If 1/2 of 25% is 6 since [tex]2 \sqrt{12}=6[/tex], you can say that the percentage would be 2/4.

Now, divide 12 by 4: [tex]4\sqrt{12}=3[/tex]

3 in this case would be the 1/4 and the 1/4 is substituting 25%

So there are 3 pints of blueberries.

If a population of 1000 people were to increae by 5% every year, what would the population be in 20 year?

Answers

The population in the next 20 years would be 2653 people. The result is obtained by the equation of estimating the future population.

How to estimate future population?

The future population can be estimated by the following equation:

P = P₀ × (1 + i)ⁿ

Where

P = population in the expected yearP₀ = current populationi = growth raten = number of periods

If the recent population is 1000 people and the growth rate is 5% per year, what would the population be in the next 20 years?

The population in the next 20 years would be

P = P₀ × (1 + i)ⁿ

P = 1000 × (1 + 0.05)²⁰

P = 1000 × (1.05)²⁰

P = 1000 × 2.6533

P = 2653 people

Hence, the population in the next 20 years would be 2653 people.

Answers

As their measure of angles are not the same with respect to the positive x-axis they are not parallel.

What are lines and their slopes?

We know lines have various types of equations, the general type is

Ax + By + c = 0, and the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + b.

Where slope = m and b = y-intercept.

the slope is the rate of change of the y-axis with respect to the x-axis and the y-intercept is the (0,b) where the line intersects the y-axis at x = 0.

We know two lines are parallel if their slope is equal.

Given are two lines m and n.

For line m, slope(m) is m/2 = (5x + 3)° where x = 14.

Slope(m) is, m/2 = (5·14 + 3)°.

m/2 = 73°.

m = 146°.

For line n, slope(m) is, m/3 = (8x - 5)° where x = 14.

m/3 = 107°.

m = 321°.

As their measure of an angle is not the same with respect to the positive x-axis these two lines are not parallel.

115% = 38x + 161y
What is 100%?

Answer:

100% is 32.3x + 136.85y

------------------------

Given

115% = 38x + 161y

Find 100%

100% = 115% - 15% (38x + 161y) - 15% = (38x + 161y)*(1 - 0.15) = (38x + 161y)*0.85 =38x*0.85 + 161y*0.85 = 32.3x + 136.85y

Answer:

32.3x + 136.85y

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take it as,

→ z = 100%

Forming the equation,

→ z + 15% = 38x + 161y

Now the value of z will be,

→ z + 15% = 38x + 161y

→ z = 38x + 161y - (1 - (15/100))

→ z = (38x + 161y) × (1 - 0.15)

→ z = (38x + 161y) × (0.85)

→ [ z = 32.3x + 136.85y ]

Hence, the answer is above.

The total distance that tram moved downwards = 35 meters

The change in the tram's elevation for each second = The total distance that tram moved downwards / Total time taken

Substitute the values in the equation

The change in the tram's elevation for each second = 35 /7
