A pet shop sells mice, rats and gerbils. The ratio of mice to rats is 4:3 and the ratio of mice to gerbils is 7:4. If there are 32 gerbils in stock at present, how many rats are there? Please could you explain your working out.
Answer:
42 rats.
Step-by-step explanation:
since the ratio of mice to gerbils is 7:4, given that there are 32 gerbils, that means 32/4=8 gerbils; in other words, 56mice:32gerbils. Then, to find the # of rats, the ratio is 4:3, so you take the previous value of the # of mice and divide it by 4 to get 14(3)= 42
To understand this question, we need to know what it's asking and what's important and what is not important. Many people skip this step, but it is very important.
It is asking us to Find how many Rats there are.
This problem is defiantly reduced to the simplistic ratio
The next step is to Find clues
The clues are 32 Gerbils, 7:4 and 4:3
Now i like to make a chart but you may skip this step if you want
Gerbils=32
Mice=??
Rats=??
First, we have to find the numbers of Mice.
(Reducing Ratios divide them by a number like 2:4=1:2)
If you have 32 Gerbils and you reduced it to 4, what did you dived?
32/4=8
So, you multiply 7x8=56
There is 56 Mice.
Our table looks like this
Gerbils=32
Mice=56
Rats=??
Now we use the ratio 4:3 to find the numbers of Rats
If there are 56 mice, and it is reduced to 4, we have to do 56/4 to find out what we have to multiply 3 by to get the total numbers of rats (Inverse Operation) by. We get 14.
So now we do 3x14 in which we get 42.
Our chart now looks like this
Gerbils=32
Mice=56
Rats=42

A U.S. citizen invested a $1200 government stimulus check they received on March 1, 2020,
into stocks that grew with an annual percentage rate of 20.2%, compounded continuously.
How much are these stocks worth 9 months later on December 1, 2020? Round to two
decimal place accuracy. (Hint: 9 months = 0.75 years)
The stocks are worth $ 1396.29 nine months later.
Using the continuous compounding formula,
[tex]A = Pe^{rt}[/tex] where
A = final amount of stocks P = initial amount of stocks = $1200, r = compounding rate = 20.2 % = 0.202 t = 9 months = 0.75 yearsSubstituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
[tex]A = Pe^{rt}[/tex]
[tex]A = 1200e^{0.202 X 0.75}\\A = 1200e^{0.1515}\\A = 1200(1.1636)\\A = 1396.29[/tex]
So, the stocks are worth $ 1396.29 nine months later.

Roy used 1/4 of his money on 3 pens and 6 notebooks. The cost of each pen is 3 times the cost of each notebook. He bought some more pens with 2/3 of his remaining money. How many pens did Roy buy altogether?
=========================================================
Explanation:
Roy spends 1/4 of his money on 3 pens and 6 notebooks. That means 3/4 of it is leftover.
2/3 of 3/4 = (2/3)*(3/4) = 1/2 of his money is spent on buying some unknown number of additional pens. We'll come back to this later.
---------------
In terms of cost,
1 pen = 3 notebooks
which is another way of saying 1 pen is the same price as 3 notebooks.
Multiply both sides by 2 to get
2 pens = 6 notebooks
Therefore, saying "3 pens + 6 notebooks" is the same as "3 pens + 2 pens = 5 pens" when just thinking about costs.
---------------
In short, Roy buying 3 pens and 6 notebooks is the same as him buying 5 pens. He spends 1/4 = 25% of his money on getting these 5 pens.
Multiply those two values by 2 to find that 50% = 1/2 of his money would allow him to get 10 pens.
--------------
Recall that at the end of the first section, we concluded that Roy spent 1/2 of his money on buying those unknown additional number of pens. Then the previous section mentioned that 1/2 of his money gets him 10 pens. Therefore, he must have bought 10 additional pens on top of the original 3 mentioned in the instructions.
Overall, he purchased 3+10 = 13 pens
Answer:
13 pens
Step-by-step explanation:
If a pen costs 3 times the cost of a notebook, then the cost of 3 notebooks will equal the cost of a pen. The 6 notebooks that Roy bought are equivalent in cost to 2 pens, so 1/4 of Roy's money is the cost of 3+2 = 5 pens.
After the first purchase, Roy has (1 -1/4) = 3/4 of his money remaining. If he spends 2/3 of that on more pens, he will have spent ...
(2/3)(3/4) = 2/4
of his money on more pens. We've already seen that 1/4 of his money buys 5 pens, so 2/4 will buy 10 more pens.
Roy bought 3 +10 = 13 pens altogether.
he school that Tony goes to is selling tickets to a play. On the first day of ticket sales the school
sold 9 adult tickets and 8 student tickets for a total of $164. The school took in $73 on the second
day by selling 2 adult tickets and 7 student tickets.
What is the price each of one adult ticket?
What is the price each of one student ticket?
Plz explain how to do this
Answer:
The price of 1 adult ticket is 12 dollars, and the price of a ticket for one student is 7 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a system of equations for the two days that the play was shown.
Let x = the price of an adult ticket
Let y = the price of a student ticket
For the first day:
9x+8y=164For the second day:
2x+7y=73Now, we can solve using the elimination method. Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 9. Then swap the order of the equations.
18x+63y= 657-18x+16y= 3280x+ 47y= 329divide both sides by 47y = 7Plug in 7 for y for the 2nd equation2x+7(7)=732x+49=73subtract 49 from both sides2x= 24divide both sides by 2x = 12 Check:2(12)+7(7)=7324+49= 73!Answer: And I don’t know math

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.
Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.
Here's how:
(x+4)•(x-1)
——————————— • 2 = 0 • 2
2
Now, on the left hand side, the 2 cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.
The equation now takes the shape :
(x+4) • (x-1) = 0
7.2 A product of several terms equals zero.
When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

1) A museum borrows $2,000,000 at simple annual interest to purchase new exhibits. Let x represent the amount borrowed at 7%, y represent the amount borrowed at 8.5%, and z represent the amount borrowed at 9.5%. Set up a system of linear equations to determine how much is borrowed at each rate given that the total annual interest is $169,750 and the amount borrowed at 8.5% is four times the amount borrowed at 9.5%. Then write the system in matrix form. You do not have to solve the system.
Based on the information the amount borrowed at each rate is:
Z=9.5%=$350,000Y= 8.5%=$1,400,000X=7% =$250,000Let x=9.5%
Let 4x= 8.5%
Let 7% =$2,000,000 - 5x
Formulate
0.095x + 0.085(4x) + 0.07(2,000,000-5x) = 169,750
Collect like terms
0.095x + 0.34x + 140,000 - 0.35x = 169,750
Divide both side by 0.085x
0.085x = 29,750
x=29,750/0.085
x =$350,000
Amount borrowed at each rate:
Z=9.5% =$350,000
Y= 8.5% =$350,000×4
Y= 8.5% =$1,400,000
X=7% =$2,000,000 - 5($350,000)
X=7%=$2,000,000-$1,750,000
X=7% =$250,000
Matrix form
Z $350,000
Y $1,400,000
X $250,000
Inconclusion the amount borrowed at each rate is: $350,000; $1,400,000; $250,000.

Answer:
The measure of <Y = 85 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
you can solve this problem algebraically if you know that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
if you add all of these angles and set them equal to 180, you can find what "a" is.
a+2a+a+10=180 so 4a+10=180 so a is 42.5 (which is equal to angle x)
then looking at all of the options, it can be seen that the first two options are incorrect because angle x is equal to 42.5 degrees.
you know that angle y is equal to 2a, so multiplying "a" by two, you can find that angle y is 85 degrees.

Find the area for each of the given shapes below. If a shape has shading, find the area of the shaded region only.
Answer:
a. 39 ft²
c. 2x² +11x +12
e. 35 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
a.The missing vertical dimension is 5-3 = 2'. The missing horizontal dimension is 11-8 = 3'. Then the figure can be decomposed into a rectangle 11'×3' and one that is 3'×2'. The sum of those areas is ...
total area = (11 ft)(3 ft) +(3 ft)(2 f) = (3 ft)(11 +2 ft) = (3 ft)(13 ft) = 39 ft²
__
c.We don't know what to make of the rectangles in each corner, so we'll assume they are distorted right-angle indicators. The area is the product of the dimensions shown:
A = LW
A = (2x +3)(x +4) = 2x² +11x +12 . . . area of figure
__
e.The shaded area is half the area of the rectangle. That is the same area you get if you use the triangle formula for the area of the shaded triangle.
A = 1/2(14 yd)(5 yd) = 35 yd²
