B. -2/3
C. 2/3
D. 3/2
(Question attached)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Ratio of x to y=x/y
1) we have to find out the value of "x" or "y",
--if we find out the value of x, for instead:
2/3=x/(3x+y)
least common multiple: 3(3x+y)
2(3x+y)=3x
6x+2y=3x
6x-3x=-2y
3x=-2y
x=-2y/3

Therefore: ratio of x to y = x/y=(-2y/3) / y=-2/3

Answer: B. -2/3

---if we find out the value of "y",
2(3x+y)=3x
6x+2y=3x
2y=3x-6x
2y=-3x
y=-3x/2

The ratio of x to y = x/y=x / (-3x/2)=-2/3

Answer: B. -2/3

$t_{(1)/(2)}=5730\n N_0=120\ g\n t=2t_{(1)/(2)}=2\cdot5730=11460\n N(t)=?\n\n N(t)=N_0\left((1)/(2)\right)^{\frac{t}{t_{(1)/(2)}}}\n N(11460)=120\cdot\left((1)/(2)\right)^{(11460)/(5730)}\n N(11460)=120\cdot\left((1)/(2)\right)^2\n N(11460)=120\cdot(1)/(4)\n N(11460)=30\ g$

After one half-life . . . 1/2 of the total parent material

After another half-life . . . 1/2 of the half remains = 1/4 of the total original parent

If the original parent is 120 grams, then (1/4 x 20) = 30 grams remains
after 2 half-lives. It makes no difference what the substance is, or
how long its half-life is.

How to find a fraction between the fractions 14/20 and 15/20

Answers

You can double the fractions, so instead of 14/20 and 15/20 you have 28/40 and 30/40. The fractions still equal the same amount. Between theses two new fractions is the fraction 29/40.
So, 29/40 is between 14/20 and 15/20.

Ratio and proportion

A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a and b, written as a/b where b does not equal 0. A proportion is an equation in which two ratios are set equal to each other.

Given

The length of the patio is 4.5 centimeters.

To find

The actual length of the patio.

How do find the actual length of the patio?

Let the actual length of the patio be x.

And the length of the patio is 4.5 centimeters.

And the ratio is 1:0.5

Then we know proportion is an equation in which two ratios are set equal to each other.

$\rm (x)/(4.5) =(0.5)/(1) \n\nx = 2.25$

Thus the value of the actual length is 2.25 cm.

What are all the roots of x2-4x+29=0

Answers

To solve a quadratic equation in the form $ax^2+bx+c=0$ you can use the quadratic formula:

$x_(1,2) = (-b\pm√(b^2-4ac))/(2a)$

In your case, the equation $x^2-4x+29=0$ is identified by the coefficient choice $a=1,\ b=-4,\ c=29$ , so the solving formula becomes

$x_(1,2) = (4\pm√(16-116))/(2) = (4\pm√(-100))/(2)$

As you can see, we have a negative number under a square root, an operation impossible to perform using real numbers. So, this equation has no real solutions.
