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

what is the value of a:b??

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]a:b = -17:1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

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

Required

Find a:b

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

Cross Multiply

[tex]3(a-3b) = 4(a+2b)[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]3a - 9b = 4a + 8b[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]3a - 4a = 8b+9b[/tex]

[tex]-a = 17b[/tex]

Divide through by -b

[tex]\frac{-a}{-b} = \frac{17b}{-b}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a}{b} = \frac{17}{-1}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a}{b} = \frac{-17}{1}[/tex]

Represent as a ratio

[tex]a:b = -17:1[/tex]

A baker regularly uses flour to make pastries for the bakery at the beginning of the month of the Baker has a 25 pound bag of flour. Each week she uses 5 3/5 pounds of flour write an expression to represent the change in weight of the bag of flour over four weeks

Answers

Answer:

At the beginning, she has 25lb of flour.

Each week, she ses (5 + 3/5) pounds of flour.

Then after the first week, she has a total of:

W(1) = 25lb - (5 + 3/5)lb

After another week, she has:

W(2) = 25lb - (5 + 3/5)lb - (5 + 3/5)lb = 25lb - 2*(5 + 3/5)lb

and so on.

if x represents the number of weeks, the equation is:

W(x) = 25lb - x*(5 + 3/5)lb

where x can be {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}

That is the equation that represents the change in the weight for the first four weeks.

Answer:

a) 18 quarts of sparkling water

b) 1.875 quarts of grape

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 2 Fill in the blanks to complete the sentence.

A recipe for sparkling grape juice calls for 1 1/2 quarts of sparkling water and 3/4 quart of grape juice.

a. How much sparkling water would you need to mix with 9 quarts of grape juice?

3/4 quarts of grape = 1 1/2 quarts sparkling water

9 quarts of grape = x

x = (9 × 1 1/2) ÷ 3/4

x = (9 × 3/2) × 4/3

x = 27/2 × 4/3

x = 18 quarts of sparking water

b. How much grape juice would you need to mix with 15/4 quarts of sparkling water?

1 1/2 quarts of sparkling water = 3/4 quarts of grape

1 5/4 quarts of sparkling water = x

x = (3/4 × 15/4 ) ÷ 1 1/2

x = (0.75 × 3.75 ) ÷ 1.5

x = 1.875 quarts of grape

c. How much of each ingredient would you need to make 100 quarts of punch?

Round your answer to the nearest whole quart. sparkling water: quarts grape juice: quarts


1. I like buying minutes of music to download on my MP3 player. The music company
charges a monthly charge of $4.35 per month and charges $.15 per song. How many
songs can I download a month if I only wish to spend $25.00?

Answers

You could buy 137 songs.

25.00 - 4.35 = 20.65 after monthly charge
20.65 / .15 = 137 songs

137 x .15 = 20.55 what you would spend in songs
20.55 + 4.35 = 24.90 total with songs and monthly charge. $0.10 left over

Answers

i think you meant " two x to the 3rd power" and "5x squared" if that's what you meant, 1. Factor out x^2 from the expression
2. Factor out -4 from the expression
3. Factor out 2x+5 from the expression
4. Use a^2-b^2= (a-b) (a-b) to factor the expression
and you'll get (2x+5) x (x-2) x (x+2)

If you meant 2 times 3 and 5 times 2 you would
1. multiply 2 times 3
2. multiply 5 times 2
3. then add 6+10
4. subtract 10-20
5. Factor out -4 from the expression
6. you get -4(1+2x)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Rational number

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of a rational number is "A number such as -3/7 that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q." The definition of an irrational number is "All the real numbers which are not rational numbers. That is, irrational numbers cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers." This means 19/7, and all improper fractions, are rational numbers.
