Let dan's age be x  then:-
 james age is 3x  and  2(x + 3x) is Pauls age so we have:-

x + 3x + 2*4x = 120

12x = 120
x = 10 

so Dans age is 10 , James's age is 30 and Paul's age = 80

9. The average diameter of an atom is 2 x 10-8 m. What if the average diameter of an atom was 1 cm? How tall would you be?
ozzi

Answer:

You'd be 2 * 10^{-6} times tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the previous and new diameter by D1 and D2;

D_1 = 2 * 10^{-8}m

D_2 = 1\ cm

To determine how tall you'd be, we need to divide D2 by D1;

Ratio = \frac{D_2}{D_1}

Substitute values for D2 and D1

Ratio = \frac{2 * 10^{-8}m}{1\ cm}

Convert cm to m

Ratio = \frac{2 * 10^{-8}m}{1 * 0.01\ m}

Ratio = \frac{2 * 10^{-8}m}{0.01\ m}

Convert denominator to exponents

Ratio = \frac{2 * 10^{-8}m}{10^{-2}\ m}

Ratio = \frac{2 * 10^{-8}}{10^{-2}}

Apply Law of indices

Ratio = 2 * 10^{-8} * 10^2

Ratio = 2 * 10^{-8+2}

Ratio = 2 * 10^{-6}

Hence;

<em>You'd be </em>2 * 10^{-6}<em> times tall</em>

Explain the steps for dividing decimals. Write three or four sentences.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Move the decimal point in the divisor and dividend.

Turn the divisor (the number you’re dividing by) into a whole number by moving the decimal point all the way to the right. At the same time, move the decimal point in the dividend (the number you’re dividing) the same number of places to the right.

Place a decimal point in the quotient (the answer) directly above where the decimal point now appears in the dividend.

Divide as usual, being careful to line up the quotient properly so that the decimal point falls into place.

Line up each digit in the quotient just over the last digit in the dividend used in that cycle.

hree TAs are grading a final exam. There are a total of 60 exams to grade. (a) How many ways are there to distribute the exams a
nalin [4]

Answer:

a. 205320

b. 34220

c. 60! / (35)! (25)! + 60!/ (40)!(20)! + 60!/ (45)! (15)!

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The number of ways to dustribute exams among the TA's is:

n / (n - r)!

n= number of things to choose from

r= Choosing r number

60P3= 60! / (60 - 3)!

(60)(59)(58)(57)! / (57)!

=205320

B) The number of ways to dustribute the exams among the TA's is:

n! /(n - r)! r!

60C3= 60! /(60 - 3)! 3!

= 60!/ 57! 3!

= 60 × 59 × 58 / 3 × 2 × 1

= 34220

C) The required number of ways is:

60C25 + 60C20 + 60C15

= 60! / (35)! (25)! + 60!/ (40)!(20)! + 60!/ (45)! (15)!

s2008m [1.1K]

Complete question:

Para ingresar a la Universidad del Chocó se aplica una prueba de razonamiento que consta de 30 preguntas. Por cada respuesta correcta se asignan 5 puntos y por cada incorrecta (o no contestada) se restan 2 puntos. Si un participante obtuvo un puntaje de 94 puntos, ¿cuantas preguntas respondió bien?

Responder:

número de respuestas correctas = 22

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado lo siguiente:

Número total de preguntas = 30

Deje respuestas correctas = y; Respuestas incorrectas = n

Marca otorgada por y = 5

Marca deducida por n = 2

Si el total de preguntas = 30; luego

y + n = 30 - - - - (1)

Puntuación total obtenida = 94; luego

5y - 2n = 94 - - - (2)

De 1),

y + n = 30

y = 30 - n

Sustituya y = 30 - n en equ (2)

5 (30 - n) - 2n = 94

150 - 5n - 2n = 94

150 - 7n = 94

-7n = 94-150

-7n = - 56

n = 56/7

n = 8

Sustituir n = 8 en (1)

y + n = 30

y + 8 = 30

y = 30 - 8

y = 22

y = número de respuestas correctas = 22

n = número de respuestas incorrectas = 8
