What is the Ratio?

The ratio is defined as a relationship between two quantities, it is expressed one divided by the other.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by the subtract, divide, and multiply built-in functions.

The operator that perform arithmetic operation are called arithmetic operators .

Operators which let do basic mathematical calculation

+ Addition operation : Adds values on either side of the operator.

For example 4 + 2 = 6

- Subtraction operation : Subtracts right hand operand from left hand operand.

for example 4 -2 = 2

* Multiplication operation : Multiplies values on either side of the operator

For example 4*2 = 8

Mandla spent one-quarter of his pocket money on sweets

Let x be the total amount of pocket money Mandla had originally

Solution of (a).

⇒ x - (1/4)x

⇒ (3/4)x

The fraction of pocket money left = 3/4

Solution of (b).

1/4 of pocket money

⇒ (1/4)x

⇒ (1/4)40

The point p=(2/5,y) lies on the unit circle below what is the value of y in simplest form

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

distance of (1,0) from the origin is,

√{(1-0)²+(0-0)²}

= √1

= 1

So the radius of the circle is 1,

now for the point (2/5,y) distance from origin should be the same since it's the radius

so,

√{(2/5-0)²+(y-0)²} = 1

or, √(4/25+y²)=1

or, 4/25+y²=1

or, y² = 1-4/25

or, y²=21/25

or, y=√(21/25)

or, y=√21/5

Answer:

B. y = -2/3x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the slope when given two points on a line:

y2 - y1

x2 - x1

Substitute the two given points (6, 8) (9, 6):

6 - 8

9 - 6

Slope = -2/3x

We found the slope! And the answer choices already gave us one y-intercept, which is 12. The last thing we do is we form an equation with the information we solved and that was given to us.

y = slope (x) + y-intercept

y = -2/3x + 12

The answer choice that matches this equation is B.

In conclusion, the equation that best estimates the line of best fit shown above is answer choice B.

An equation of a line with given coordinates is y= -2/3 x+12. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

What is the equation of a line?

The general equation of a straight line is y=mx+c, where m is the gradient, and y = c is the value where the line cuts the y-axis. This number c is called the intercept on the y-axis.

From the given graph, the coordinate points are (6, 8) and (9, 6).

We know that, the formula to find the slope of a line is slope = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁).

Here, slope = (6-8)/(9-6)

= -2/3

Substitute m=-2/3 and (x, y)=(6, 8) in y=mx+c, we get

8=-2/3 (6)+c

8=-4+c

c=12

So, equation of a line is y= -2/3 x+12

Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Rules for multiplying exponents

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

When multiplying exponents:

- Product of Powers: When the base of the exponents are the same, and the bases are being multiplied to each other, the exponents are added together.

Example: [tex]a^x + a^y = a^{x+y}[/tex]

- Different bases Same Exponents: When the bases of the exponents are different, but the exponents are the same, the bases multiply together (within a parenthesis) with the exponent on the parenthesis.

Example: [tex]a^x*b^x = (a*b)^x[/tex]

- Quotient of Powers: When the base of the exponents are the same, and they are being divided by each other, the exponents will subtract from each other.

Example: [tex]\frac{a^x}{a^y}= a^{x-y}[/tex]

- Power of a Power: When a base has an exponent, and that entire term has and exponent, the exponents multiply together.

Example: [tex](a^x)^y = a^{x*y}[/tex]

- Power of a Product: The opposite of Different bases Same Exponents. Distribute the exponent onto the different bases.

Example: [tex](ab)^x = a^x*b^x[/tex]

- Power of a Quotient: The opposite of Quotient of Powers. Distribute the exponent to the dividing bases.

Example: [tex](\frac{a}{b} )^x = \frac{a^x}{b^x}[/tex]

- Zero Power: Any number raised to the 0 power equals 1.

Example: [tex]a^0 = 1\\999999^0=1[/tex]

- Negative Exponent: Any number raised by a negative number goes to the denominator of a fraction (if not already in the denominator), and vise versa (goes to the numerator if not already in the numerator).

Example: [tex]a^-2 = \frac{1}{a^2} \\\\\frac{1}{b^-3} = b^3[/tex]

- Power of One: Any number raised to the power of 1 is the same number.

Example: [tex]a^1 = a\\\\999^1 = 999[/tex]

The relationship between the effective annual yield (e) and the nominal annual interest rate (r) compounded n times per year is ...

  e = (1 +r/n)^n -1

For r = 5.9% and n = 2, the effective rate is ...

  e = (1 +0.059/2)^2 -1 = 0.059870 ≈ 5.99%

The sum of first 'n' terms. Sn of a particular Arithmetic Progression is given by Sn=12n - 2n^2. Find the first term and the common difference

Answers

Let a be the first term and d the common difference between consecutive terms. Then the next few terms in the sequence are

a + d

a + 2d

a + 3d

and so on, up to the k-th term

a + (k - 1) d

The sum of the first n terms of this sequence is

[tex]\displaystyle S_n = \sum_{k=1}^n(a+(k-1)d) = 12n-2n^2[/tex]

Expanding the sum, we have

[tex]\displaystyle S_n = \sum_{k=1}^n (a+(k-1)d) \\\\ S_n = \sum_{k=1}^n(a-d+dk) \\\\ S_n = (a-d)\sum_{k=1}^n1+d\sum_{k=1}^nk \\\\ S_n = (a-d)n+\frac{d}2n(n+1) \\\\ S_n = (a-d)n+\frac{d}2(n^2+n) \\\\ S_n = \left(a-\frac{d}2\right)n+\frac{d}2n^2[/tex]

It follows that

a - d/2 = 12

d/2 = -2

Solve these equations for a and d.

d/2 = -2   ==>   d = -4

a - d/2 = a + 2 = 12   ==>   a = 10

So the sequence is

10, 6, 2, -2, -6, -10, -14, …

If I toss a fair coin five times and the outcomes are TTTTT, then the probability that tails appears on the next toss is

2) greater than 0.5
3) 1
4) less than 0.5
5) 0

Answers

Answer:

1. 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of flipping a coin and landing on heads or tails is 100%. So 3)1 would be incorrect. In probability, we learned that just because something was picked more than once, it does not lower the chances of the thing being picked again. So 5)0 would be incorrect. The chances of getting tails are 50% also 0.5 and the chances of getting heads are 50% also 0.5. So 1 is correct.

There is a 0.5 percent chance that the following coin will land on its side.

What is Probability?

Probability refers to potential. A random event's occurrence is the subject of this area of mathematics. The range of the value is 0 to 1.

The sample space, which is typically represented using set notation, contains a list of all the potential ordered outcomes as elements. A sample space with all possible outcomes exists for a series of five fair coin tosses. The example of a fair coin toss is 2*2*2H,T.

{HHHHH,HHHHT,HHHTH,HHTHH,HTHHH........TTTTT} The likelihood that the next coin will land on its side is always equal to It doesn't matter if previous results were TTTTT, HHHHH, or TTHT. The probability that the next number will be a tails is therefore still 0.5 in each of these cases as well as all others.

Distribute the 8 by multiplying 8 by what's inside of the parenthesis (-2x and 1)

8 * -2x = -16x

8 * 1 = 8

We now have

-16x + 8 = 0

Subtract 8 from both sides

-16x + 8 - 8 = 0 - 8

-16x = -8

Divide both sides by -16

-16x/-16 = -8/-16

x = 1/2

G I V E N :

8( -2x + 1 ) = 0

S O L U T I O N :

8( -2x + 1 ) = 0

Simplify the left hand side

-16x + 8 = 0

Transposing -16x to the other side

8 = 16x

Cross multiplying we get

x = 8/16

x = ½

x = 0.5

Hence the value of x is 0.5 or ½
