Step-by-step explanation:

12/20-4/20+5/20=

8/20+5/20=

13/20

Answer:

[tex] \frac{13}{20} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we can do anything with the fractions, we need to find a common denominator.

To do that, we will first divide 10 by 2 to get a denominator of 5, and whatever we do to the bottom we must do to the top as well. So we will also divide 6 by 2 to get 3.

So 6/10 has now been simplified to 3/5.

Next we can subtract 1/5 from 3/5 since they both share a common denominator of 5, now we have 2/5.

Now in order to find the common denominator of 2/5 and 1/4, we will simply cross multiply the two fractions together like so: (2 × 4 = 8 and 5 × 1 = 5), to get 8/20 and 5/20. So now we can add 8 and 5 normally, since they both share a common denominator now. That's how you get 13/20.

Hope it helps :)

A cloth bag contains a mix of black, white and red balls. Selecting one ball at random, the probability of getting a black ball is 0.2 , while the probability of getting a white ball is 0.5 . (a) Selecting one ball at random, what is the probability of getting a red ball ? (b) If in total there are 5 white balls in the bag, how many black balls are there ? (c) If there are in total 3 red balls in the bag, how many balls are there altogether ?
pls give the way​

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting a red ball, the number of black balls and total balls are 0.3, 2 and 10 respectively.

What is probability?

Probability is the branch of Mathematics that deals with the measurement of the chance of occurrence of a random event.

The probability of any event always lie in the close interval of 0 and 1 [0,1].

Given that,

The probability of getting a black ball is 0.2.

The probability of getting a white ball is 0.5.

(a) As the bag contains only black, white and red balls, the probability of getting a red ball is,

1 - (0.2 + 0.5)

= 0.3

(a) The probability of getting white balls can be written as,

P (white ball) = Number of white balls ÷ Total number of balls

Substitute all the given values to get,

Total number of balls = 5 ÷ 0.5

                                   = 10

Similarly, for black balls it can be written that,

P (black ball) = Number of black balls ÷ Total number of balls

Substitute all the given values to get,

Number of black balls = 10 × 0.2

                                    = 2

(c) When number of red balls are three then,

P (red ball) = Number of red balls ÷ Total number of balls

Substitute all the given values to get,

Total number of balls = 3 ÷ 0.3

                                    = 10.        

Hence, the answers for all the parts are 0.3, 2 and 10 respectively.

She can buy at most 8 packs of crackers.

Hope this helps :)

Fiona can buy maximum 8 number of packages of crackers.

What is subtraction?

Subtraction is mathematic operation. Which is used to remove terms or objects in expression.

Given that Fiona has $18 to spend and she spent $4.25 .

Now, she has the money $18 - $4.25 = $ 13.75

And she needs to save $9.75 from rest of the amount.

Therefore, $13.75 - $ 9.75 = $4

Now she has $4 to spend and one packet of crackers cost $0.50.

So $4 / $0.50 = 8 number of packages Fiona can buy with the rest of money.

Therefore, Fiona can buy maximum 8 number of packages of crackers.

Find the 13th term of the arithmetic sequence – 3x – 5, 4x – 12, 11. – 19,.

Answers

Answer:

13 = 81 x - 89

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

81x-79

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume that the last expression is 11x-19 instead of 11.-19. First things first, we find a pattern in this arithmetic sequence. We can see that each expression adds 7x-7 to get the next term. We then can create a formula for this. Since the first expression is -3x-5, and it repeadetly adds 7x-7, we can get (-3x-5)+(7x-7). But we're not done here yet.

We can notice that the first term doesn't add any 7x-7 to it. The second term adds 1 of the (7x-7)'s, and the third term adds 2. The relationship between the term number and the number of (7x-7)'s added to -3x-5 always subtracts one. I'm going to add t as #term to show that t-1 is the number of (7x-7)'s that are added to (-3x+5)So, we can add a (t-1) to this expression to get (-3x+5)+(7x-7)* (t-1). Now that we have the formula, we insert 13 as t into the equation and simplify.

=(-3x+5)+(7x-7)*12

=(-3x+5)+84x-84

=81x-79

Note that this is just my way of solving these types of things, but an alternative way is to keep adding 7x-7 to the sequence until you get to the 13th expression. That works too. Hope this helps! Good luck! (I'm not really sure if this answer is correct, but please let me know if it is wrong)

Solve for the unknown side of each right triangle

Answers

Answer:

x = 4.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, the Pythagorean Theorem applies:  a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are leg lengths and c is the length of the hypotenuse.

Thus, (5.3 m)^2 + x^2 = (6.9 m)^2, or, solving for x^2:

x^2 = (6.9 m)^2 - (5.3 m)^2, or

x^2 = 47.61 - 28.09 = 19.52

Then the length, x, of the unknown side is x = +√19.52 m, or

x = 4.4 cm

10 open cylindrical containers are to be painted on the outside, including the base. Each container has a radius of 30 cm and a height of 28 cm.
Given that 150g of paint is needed to paint an area of 1m3, find the amount of paint required to paint the ten cylinders. Give your answer in kg.
please help quick.

Answers

The total surface area of an open cylinder can be used to determine the surface area required. This answer can now be used to determine the kilograms of paint needed which is 1.245 Kg.

The formula to determine the total surface area of an open cylinder is given as:

2[tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex] + [tex]\pi r[/tex]h =

where: r is the radius, and h is the height of the cylinder.

The radius of the cylinder is 30 cm (0.3 m), and its height is 28 cm (0.28 m). Then the total surface area can be calculated as follows:

Total surface area of one cylinder = [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x 0.3*(2*0.3 + 0.28)

                               = 0.8297

The total surface area of one of the cylinders is 0.83 [tex]m^{2}[/tex].

Total surface area of the ten cylinders = 10 x 0.83

                                                   = 8.3 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]

Given that 150 g of paint would be required to paint an area of 1 [tex]m^{2}[/tex], the amount of paint (x) required for the ten cylinders would be:

x = 8.3 x 150 g

  = 1245 g

x = [tex]\frac{1245}{1000}[/tex]

  = 1.245 Kg

Therefore, the amount of paint required for the ten cylinders is 1.245 Kg.
