The ratio of boys to girls is 7:5. The ratio of boys with glasses to boys without glasses is 1:6. The ratio of girls with glasses to girls without glasses is 1:3. What fraction of students wear glasses?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys with glasses are 1/(1+6) = 1/7 of boys. Boys are 7/(7+5) = 7/12 of the group.

Girls with glasses are 1/(1+3) = 1/4 of girls. Girls are 5/(7+5) = 5/12 of the group.

The fraction of the group that wears glasses is ...

  (1/7)(7/12) +(1/4)(5/12) = 1/12 +5/48 = 9/48 = 3/16

3/16 of the students wear glasses.

_____

Additional comment

It appears we can choose a multiple of 48 students to work out the detailed numbers. For 48 students, the ratio of boys to girls is 28 : 20. The ratio of boys with glasses to those without is 4 : 24, and the similar ratio for girls is 5 : 15. In our group of 48 students, 4 boys and 5 girls = 9 students wear glasses. The fraction is 9/48 = 3/16 as shown above.

Veronica has two offers for a $65,000 student loan. The first loan has a 6.3% interest rate for 15 years, and the second loan has a 4.8% interest rate for 20 years. Both loans have interest compounded every month. Veronica is interested in finding the loan that minimizes the amount of interest that she will pay over the life of the loan. Which loan has a lower amount of interest paid?

Answers

The second option has a lower amount of interest paid.

In order to determine the loan option that minimizes loan payment, the future value of both loan options has to be determined.

FV = P (1 + r)^nm

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

m = number of compounding

N = number of years  

First loan option

65000( 1 + 0.063/12)^300 = 312,707.21

Second loan option

65000( 1 + 0.048/12)^240 = 169,435.51

Gina has 48 stickers 3/8 are flowers, 1/8 were plants, how many are people

Answers

Answer:

Hello!

Judging by the question you have provided I have deduced that the correct answer is:

24 people

Step-by-step explanation:

To come across this answer I assumed that [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] of the stickers are flowers, [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] of the stickers are plants, and the wrest of the stickers are people.

I then realized that I could look at the equation this way:

If we already know how many stickers are not people, we can then add up the amount of stickers we know are not people, and then subtract that amount from the total amount of stickers to figure out how many left can be people!

Which in this case would be:

[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] (not people)+  [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] (not people) = [tex]\frac{4}{8}[/tex] stickers that are not people, or if simplified [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] or half of the total number of stickers.

We now know that half of the stickers are not people, so thus we can deduce that the other half of the stickers are people.

And half of 48 is:

24

Thus,  24 stickers are people!

And the other 24 have to be flowers and plants!

24 stickers were people

What are trigonometric functions?

There are six major trigonometric functions as -

Sine(x)Cosine(x)Tangent(x)Cotangent(x)Secant(x)Cosecant(x)

We can write the relation between them as -

Sine = 1/cosecantCosine = 1/secantTangent = 1/Cotangent

Given is to find the value of sin 23°.

Now, we can write the value of sin(23°) as -

sin(23°) = sin(30° - 7°)

Expanding using the compound angle formula, we can write -

sin (x - y) = sin(x) cos(y) - cos(x) sin(y)

sin(30° - 7°) = sin(30°) cos(7°) - cos(30°) sin (7°)

sin(30° - 7°) = 1/2 x 0.99 - √3/2 x 0.121

sin(30° - 7°) = 1/2 x 0.99 - √3/2 x 0.121

sin(30° - 7°) = 0.495 - 0.105

sin(30° - 7°) = 0.495 - 0.105

sin(30° - 7°) = 0.39

Therefore, the value of sin(23°) is equivalent to 0.39.

the equation 2x^2+5kx+k=0, where k is a constant has no real roots. Find possible values of k

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

What do you mean "no real roots" ?

if I understand correctly we have

2x² + 5kx + k = 0

the solutions for such a quadratic equating are

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

a = 2

b = 5k

c = k

so, we get

x = (-5k ± sqrt(25k² - 8k))/4

why would that have no real solutions ?

e.g. k = 2

x = (-10 ± sqrt(100 - 16))/4 = (-10 ± sqrt(84))/4

since the sqrt is a little bit bigger than 9 we get 2 negative solutions for x. but still real.

A Fidelity life insurance company charges $226 for insuring that the female will live through the year. If she does not survive the year, the policy pays out $50,000 as a death benefit.

From the perspective of the 50-year-old female, what are the values corresponding to the two events of surviving the year and not surviving?

Rational expressions are expressions that can be represented as a quotient

The equivalent rational expression of [tex]\mathbf{\frac{(5c + 9)(c - 3)}{c - 8}}[/tex] is [tex]\mathbf{\frac{5c^2 -6c-27}{c - 8}}[/tex]

The expression is given as:
