Mary plants roseas in 1/4 of her garden. She also plants some tulips in her garden. She has 1/12 of the garden left to plant more flowers. What fraction of Mary's garden has tulips?

Answers

Answer 1

Let x represent the full area if Mary's garden.

Mary plants roses in 1/4 of her garden. This means that the portion of the garden on which she planted roses would be 1/4 × x = x/4

She also plants some tulips in her garden. She has 1/12 of the garden left to plant more flowers. This means that the portion if the garden that she has left to plant more flowers would be 1/12 × x = x/12

The portion of the garden on which she planted tulips would be

x - (x/4 + x/12) = x - (3x + x)/12 = x - 4x/12

x - x/3 = (3x - x)/3 = 2x/3

Therefore, the fraction of Mary's garden that has tulips would be

(2x/3) /x = 2/3

Answer:

subtractionmultiplicationcombine like terms

Step-by-step explanation:

The properties of equality say the value of the variable does not change if the same function is performed on both sides of the equal sign.

a) 4x +7 = 19   ⇒   4x = 12

The value -7 was added to both sides. Equivalently, 7 was subtracted from both sides. The Subtraction Property of Equality was used.

__

b) 2x/3 = 8   ⇒   2x = 24

Both sides were multiplied by 3. The Multiplication Property of Equality was used.

__

c) 5x -6 +2x = 22   ⇒   7x -6 = 22

Terms 5x and 2x were combined and written as 7x. We call this Combine Like Terms.

Luisa is planning a bridal shower for her best friend. At the party, she wants to serve 3 beverages, 3 appetizers, and 3 desserts, but she does not have time to cook. She can choose from 15 bottled drinks, 10 frozen appetizers, and 13 prepared desserts at the supermarket. How many different ways can Luisa pick the food and drinks to serve at the bridal shower

Answers

Answer:

Luisa can pick the food and drinks to serve at the bridal shower in 15,615,600 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fundamental counting principle:

States that if there are p ways to do a thing, and q ways to do another thing, and these two things are independent, there are p*q ways to do both things.

Also

The order in which the food and drinks are chosen is not important, which means that the combinations formula is used to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

Beverages:

3 from a set of 15. So

[tex]B = C_{15,3} = \frac{15!}{3!12!} = 455[/tex]

Appetizers:

3 from a set of 10. So

[tex]A = C_{10,3} = \frac{10!}{3!7!} = 120[/tex]

Desserts:

3 from a set of 13. So

[tex]D = C_{13,3} = \frac{13!}{3!10!} = 286[/tex]

How many different ways can Luisa pick the food and drinks to serve at the bridal shower?

By the fundamental counting principle, as beverages, appetizers and desserts are independent:

[tex]T = B*A*D = 455*120*286 = 15,615,600[/tex]

Luisa can pick the food and drinks to serve at the bridal shower in 15,615,600 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

The numerator contains 14x⁴y⁶ and the denominator is 7x⁸y².

We can write it as :

[tex]\dfrac{14x^4y^6}{7x^8y^2}=\dfrac{7\times 2\times x^4\times y^2\times y^4}{7x^4\times x^4\times y^2}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Average rate of change = 33,333.33acre per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Farm land in 2003 = 520,000 acre

Farm land in 2012 = 820,000 acre

Find:

Average rate of change

Computation;

Number of year = 2012 - 2003

Number of year = 9 year

Average rate of change = [Farm land in 2012 - Farm land in 2003] / Number of year

Average rate of change = [820,000 - 520,000] / 9

Average rate of change = [300,000] / 9

Average rate of change = 33,333.33acre per year
