1.04/0.26=(1.04*100) /( 0.26*100)=104/26=4/1=4

So: 1.04:0.26=4/1=4

To work out the simplest form follow these steps.

1) Divide the smallest number by the largest.
1.04 divided 0.26 = 4
2) So the simplified form would be
4:1

A garden supply store sells two types of lawn mowers. The smaller mower costs $249.99 and the larger mower costs $329.99. If 30

Annette [7]

19 small mowers and 11 large mowers are sold

Solution:

Let "a" be the number of small mowers sold

Let "b" be the number of large mowers sold

Cost of each small mower = $ 249.99

Cost of each large mower = $ 329.99

30 total mowers were sold

Therefore,

a + b = 30

a = 30 - b ------------- eqn 1

The total sales for a given year was $8379.70

Thus we frame a equation as:

number of small mowers sold x Cost of each small mower + number of large mowers sold x Cost of each large mower = 8379.70

$a \times 249.99 + b \times 329.99 = 8379.70$

249.99a + 329.99b = 8379.70 ---------- eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2

249.99(30 - b) + 329.99b = 8379.70

7499.7 - 249.99b + 329.99b = 8379.70

80b = 8379.70 - 7499.7

80b = 880

Divide both sides by 80

b = 11

Substitute b = 11 in eqn 1

a = 30 - 11

a = 19

Thus 19 small mowers and 11 large mowers are sold

A boy climbs to the top of a tree and sees his friend 100 feet from the base of the tree. If the tree is 25 feet tall, what is t

QveST [7]

It would be helpful to draw the figure for this system. We would see that a right triangle is made where the base is equal to 100 ft and the height is equal to 25 ft. Using trigonometric functions we can easily calculate for the angle as follows:

tan (theta) = 25 / 100
theta = 14.04 degrees

The grade point average (GPA) of the students at Lakeview High School is normally distributed with a mean of 3.1 and a standard

Morgarella [4.7K]

Approximately 1718 have a score within that range.

We calculate the z-score for each end of this spectrum:

z = (X-μ)/σ = (2.5-3.1)/0.3 = -0.6/0.3 = -2

Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that the area to the left of, less than, this z-score is 0.0228.

For the upper end:
z = (3.7-3.1)/0.3 = 0.6/0.3 = 2

Using a z-table, we see that the area to the left of, less than, this z-score is 0.9772.

The probability between these is given by subtracting these:
0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544.

This means the proportion of people that should fall between these is 0.9544:
0.9544*1800 = 1717.92 ≈ 1718
