I need to know how to work fractions word problems like Leon's older brother is 4 3/4 feet tall. Leon is 1/3 foot shorter than his brother. How tall is Leon?

Answer: 79

Step-by-step explanation:

63+65+73+×/4=79

multiply by 4 on both sides

201+x=280

subtract 201 from both sides

x= 79

Okay, let's solve this step-by-step:

X/5-y = m-1

Add y to both sides:

X/5 = m

Multiply both sides by 5:

X = 5m

So in this equation, X = 5m.

To find y, we subtract m-1 from both sides of the original equation:

X/5 = 5m

X/5 - (m-1) = 5m - (m-1)

X/5 - m + 1 = 4m

(X - 5m) / 5 = m - 1

X - 5m = 5(m - 1)

X = 20m - 5

So if we let m = any value, we can calculate y. For example:

If m = 3, then:

X = 20*3 - 5

= 55 - 5 = 50

50/X = 5(m - 1) = 5*2 = 10

y = 10

Does this make sense? Let me know if you have any other questions!

Answer:

the percentage of red marbles in the bag is 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage of red marbles in the bag, we need to divide the number of red marbles by the total number of marbles and then multiply by 100:

Percentage of red marbles = (Number of red marbles / Total number of marbles) x 100

Number of red marbles = 12

Total number of marbles = 40

Percentage of red marbles = (12/40) x 100

= 0.3 x 100

= 30%

Therefore, the percentage of red marbles in the bag is 30%.

The measurement of DE is 10 inches.

If we know that E is the point where the diagonals of the rectangle intersect, then we know that DE is equal to half the length of the diagonal BD.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can relate the length of the diagonal BD to the sides of the rectangle.

Let's assume that the length of the rectangle is L and the width of the rectangle is W. Then, the length of the diagonal BD is given by:

BD = √(L^2 + W^2)

Since we know that the diagonals of a rectangle are equal, we have:

AC = BD

BD = 20

Therefore, DE = 1/2 BD = 1/2 (20) = 10 inches.

Answer:

3 landscaping, 3 tutoring

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of equations.

Let T = number hours tutoring and L = number hours landscaping.

T + L = 10

137 = 14T + 13L

Now solve the system of equations.

We can rearrange the first equation so that T = 10-L. Substitute that in the 2nd equation.

137=14(10-L) + 13L

137 = 140-14L + 13L

-3=-L

3=L

He worked 3 Landscaping Hours. Substitute back into the original equation to solve for T (tutoring hours).

T+L = 10

T+3 = 10

T = 7.

We worked 7 tutoring hours.

Now double check with the earnings equation.

137 = 14T + 13L

137 = 14*7+ 13*3

137 = 98 + 39

137=137

Let the first point be P ( 0 , 3 )

Let the second point be Q ( -3 , 0 )

Now , the slope of the line is m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

m = ( 3 - 0 ) / ( 0 + 3 )

m = 1

Now , equation of line is y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

y - 0 = 1 ( x + 3 )

y = x + 3

And , the second equation is

Let the first point be R ( 0 , -4 )

Let the second point be S ( 2 , 2 )

Now , the slope of the line is m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

m = ( -4 - 2 ) / ( 0 - 2 )

m = -6/-2

m = 3

Now , equation of line is y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

y - 2 = 3 ( x - 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the common difference of an arithmetic sequence is easy peasy lemon squeezy. All you have to do is take any term and subtract it from the next one. For instance, if you take 1 and subtract it from 8, you get 7. If you take 8 and subtract it from 15, you get 7 again. You can do this for any pair of terms and you will always get 7. That's the common difference of the sequence 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, 43. It means that you just add 7 to each term to get the next one. Isn't that neat?

The probability that the sample's mean length is greater than 6.3 inches is0.8446.

Here, we have,

Given mean of 6.5 inches, standard deviation of 0.5 inches and sample size of 46.

We have to calculate the probability that the sample's mean length is greater than 6.3 inches is 0.8446.

Probability is the likeliness of happening an event.

It lies between 0 and 1.

Probability is the number of items divided by the total number of items.

We have to use z statistic in this question because the sample size is greater than 30.

μ=6.5

σ=0.5

n=46

z=X-μ/σ

where μ is mean and

σ is standard deviation.

First we have to find the p value from 6.3 to 6.5 and then we have to add 0.5 to it to find the required probability.

z=6.3-6.5/0.5

=-0.2/0.5

=-0.4

p value from z table is 0.3446

Probability that the mean length is greater than 6.3inches is 0.3446+0.5=0.8446.

Hence the probability that the mean length is greater than 6.3 inches is 0.8446.

The correct answer is, A (aka 12)

If the population in the year 2007 is 111.3 million, then the population in the year 2044 will be 148.37 million.

In order to find the population in the year 2044, we use the population growth formula; which is : P = P₀ × (1 + r)ⁿ;

where P = future population, P₀ = initial population, r = annual growth rate, and n = number of years;

Substituting the values,

We get;

⇒ P = (111.3 million) × (1 + 0.0078)²⁰⁴⁴⁻²⁰⁰⁷;

Simplifying this expression,

We get;

⇒ P = (111.3 million) × (1.0078)³⁷;

⇒ P ≈ 148.37 million;

Tommy and Ruth will meet at a coordinate that is 0.5x km away from Ruth's starting point.

In this problem, Tommy and Ruth are cycling towards each other. We are given that Tommy cycles twice as fast as Ruth and they both start cycling at the same time. Our goal is to determine at which coordinate they will meet.

To solve this problem, we need to use the concept of distance, speed, and time. Let's assume that Ruth cycles at a speed of "x" km/hr. Since Tommy cycles twice as fast as Ruth, his speed will be "2x" km/hr.

Let's say that Tommy and Ruth meet at a distance of "d" km from Ruth's starting point. Now, let's calculate the time taken by both Tommy and Ruth to reach this point.

Time taken by Ruth = Distance/Speed = d/x

Time taken by Tommy = Distance/Speed = d/2x

Since they both start cycling at the same time, we can set these two equations equal to each other:

d/x = d/2x

We can then simplify this equation by multiplying both sides by 2x:

2d/x = d

Now we can solve for "d" by multiplying both sides by "x":

2d = dx

d = 0.5x

This means that Tommy and Ruth will meet at a coordinate that is 0.5x km away from Ruth's starting point. To determine the exact coordinates, we need to know where Ruth started cycling from and in which direction they are cycling. If we assume that Ruth started cycling from the origin (0,0) and they are cycling towards each other on a straight path, then they will meet at the coordinate (0.5x, 0).

If gender did not matter then the number of males who would have survived would be 593 males

If gender would not have mattered, the survival rate would be the same for both genders. So, we would use the survival rate of females (which is 296/402) to calculate the expected number of males that would have survived.

First, calculate the survival rate of the females:

Survival rate = Number of females who survived / Total number of females

= 296 / 402

= 0.737

Expected number of male survivors = Number of males * Female survival rate

The value of number of students who failed in both mathematics and English is 40.

Since, Given that;

60% of the 1000 students passed the examination,

Hence, we can calculate the number of students who passed the exam as follows:

60/100 x 1000 = 600

So, 600 students passed the examination.

Now, let's find the number of students who failed the examination.

Since 60% of the students passed, the remaining 40% must have failed. Therefore, the number of students who failed the examination is:

40/100 x 1000 = 400

Of the 400 failing students, we know that 60% failed in mathematics.

So, the number of students who failed in mathematics is:

60/100 x 400 = 240

Similarly, we know that 50% of the failing students failed in English.

So, the number of students who failed in English is:

50/100 x 400 = 200

Now, we need to find the number of students who failed in both subjects.

We can use the formula:

Total = A + B - Both

Where A is the number of students who failed in mathematics, B is the number of students who failed in English, and Both is the number of students who failed in both subjects.

Substituting the values we have, we get:

400 = 240 + 200 - Both

Solving for Both, we get:

Both = 240 + 200 - 400

Both = 40

The total "surface-area" of cone having "slant-height" as 10, and base-radius as 6, is 301.44 square units.

The total surface area of a cone can be calculated by adding the area of the base to the lateral surface area.

Let us first calculate the lateral surface area of the cone:

Lateral surface area = πrl; where r is radius , and 'l" = slant-height,

The radius of base = 6 units and slant height is = 10 units.

So, we have:

Lateral surface area = π × 6 × 10

Lateral surface area = 60π square units

Next, Area of the base = πr²;

Area of the base = π × 6²,

Area of the base = 36π square units,

Total surface area = Lateral surface area + Area of the base

Total surface area = 60π + 36π

Total surface area = 96×3.14 = 301.44 square units.
