How do you divide -15/-5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

When you divide two negative numbers, the answer is positive. Since - 15 and -5 are both negative, the answer will have to be positive. Divide 15/5 (just as you would with postive numbers) to get 3 and don't do anything else. The answer has to be 3 because 3 * - 5 = -15 (the opposite of division is multiplication).

When a biased coin is thrown 4 times, the probability of getting 4 heads is
16
81
Work out the probability of getting 4 tails when the coin is thrown 4 times.

Answers

Answer:

1/81

Step-by-step explanation:

P(H,H,H,H)=16/81

fourth root of 16/81= 2/3

so the probability of getting tails would be 1/3

probability of getting 4 tails would be:

P(T,T,T,T)=(1/3)^4

=1/81

The probability of getting 4 tails when the coin is thrown 4 times is 1/81

How to determine the probability?

We have:

P(Head 4 times) = 16/81

This means that:

P(Head)^4 =  16/81

Take the 4th root of both sides

P(head) = 2/3

The probability of a tail is calculated as:

P(tail) = 1 - P(Head)

This gives

P(tail) = 1 - 2/3

P(tail) = 1/3

When thrown 4 times, we have:

P(tail)^4 = (1/3)^4

P(tail) = 1/81

Hence, the probability of getting 4 tails when the coin is thrown 4 times is 1/81

Angie is working on solving the exponential equation 23^x=6,; however she is not quite sure where to start. Using complete sentences, describe to Angie how to solve this equation.

And please don’t copy paste this and call it an answer

When you have problems like this you simply ask yourself what number do I have to multiply by 23 to get 6? This is how you might read this mathematical expression. So how do we solve the problem?
Well if x is the number that we have to multiply by 23 to get 6 that means that if we divide 6, 26 times we get x. So, x would be 6/23.

Answers

0.26

you would divide 23 on both sides

this is Solving Proportions

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3 is to 8 as x is to 32

3/8=x/32

x=12

The number of dimes cannot be 10 because the number of dimes in the jar will be equal to 12.

What is the ratio?

The ratio notion is used in mathematics when evaluating two or more numbers. It works as a comparison tool to demonstrate how big or small a particular number is. A ratio divides two quantities to compare them.

As per the data in the question,

The ratio of Dimes to pennies: 3 : 8

Number of Pennies in jar = 32

Assume that the number of Dimes in the jar is x.

So, the number of dimes will be,

x = (32 × 3)/8

x = 12 Dimes.

Jam is made from sugar and strawberries in the ratio of 3:5 A jar contains 150g of sugar how many grams of strawberries are in the jar

Answers

Answer:250

Step-by-step explanation:

150/3 =50

50x5=250

The quantity of strawberries in jar is 250 gram.

What is the ratio?

Comparing two amounts of the same units and determining the ratio tells us how much of one quantity is in the other. Two categories can be used to categorise ratios. Part to whole ratio is one, and part to part ratio is the other. The part-to-part ratio shows the relationship between two separate entities or groupings.

Given the Jam is made from sugar and strawberries in a ratio of 3:5,

ratio of sugar to strawberries = 3/5

sugar in jam = 150 gram

let quantity of strawberries  be x gram

the ratio of sugar to strawberries = 150/x

since both ratios are in proportions so

3/5 = 150/x

x = 150 * 5/3

x = 250 gram

Hence the quantity of strawberries is 250 grams.

Answers

Hi
Here is you answer mate
But don’t forget to mark me the brainliest


Plug the applicable numbers into the compound interest formula and see which is more.
A = p(1+r/n)nt
A = future amount
p =principal investment
r = interest rate as a decimal
n = number times compounded per year
t = time in years

A = 5000(1+.0743/365)365(10)
= 5000(1.000203562)3650 = $10,510.38

A = 5000(1+.075/4)4(10)
= 5000(1.01875)40 = $10,511.75

As you can see these are practically equal, but the 7.5% quarterly is more.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (4, -5) and (2, 0)?

Answers

Answer:

y = - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (4, - 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 0)

m = [tex]\frac{0+5}{2-4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{-2}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] , then

y = - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (2, 0 )

0 = - 5 + c ⇒ c = 0 + 5 = 5

y = - [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] x + 5 ← equation of line

Problem 3: The elevator at a business center has a weight limit of 1800 pounds. Assume the

Answers

○=> Correct option :[tex]\color{plum}\bold{(b) \: 11}[/tex]○=> Steps to derive correct option :

Weight limit of an elevator = 1800 pounds

Average weight of each person who comes in the elevator = 160 pounds

Quantity of items with them = 3 pounds

Let the number of people who can ride the elevator at one time be x.

Which means :

[tex] =\tt 160x + 3 = 1800[/tex]

[tex] = \tt160x = 1800 - 3[/tex]

[tex] = \tt160x = 1797[/tex]

[tex] =\tt x = \frac{1797}{160} [/tex]

[tex] =\tt x = 11[/tex]

Thus, number of people who can enter the elevator is 11.

▪︎Therefore, the correct option is (b) 11.

Answers

Answer: Each shirt costs $1.25, and each hat costs $2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= Cost per T-shirt, y = Cost per Hat.

As per given,

3x+3y=11.25        (i)

4x+2y=10             (ii)

Multiply 4 to equation (i)

12x+12y=45          (iii)

12x+6y= 30             (iv)

Eliminate (iv) from (iii), we get

6y= 15

y = 2.5

Put value of y in (i)

3x+3(2.5)=11.25

⇒3x+7.5=11.25

⇒3x= 3.75

x= 1.25

Hence, each shirt costs $1.25, and each hat costs $2.5.
