Answer: 2
<u>Explanation:</u>
A pond had 60 fish but 10 were added so now the pond has 70 fish.
The probability of choosing a carp is 1/2 so
= 35 are now carp.
There were 27 carp and now there are 35 carp so 8 carp were added.
10 fish were added and 8 of them were carp so 2 of them were tench.
5n+10-8=2n
5n+2=2n
-3n=2
n=-2/3
Answer: 9
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the people out of the 150, we first multiply 9/25 and 150 together. This will give us the people who DO own a dog. This brings us to 54.
Now, if we multiply 54 by 1/6 we get the answer of 9, because 1/6 of the dog owners own a cat as well. We have now reached the desired amount.
Maury = 120/10 (12 calls/hour)
Tyra = 120/8 (15 calls/hour)
Together they are 27 calls per hour.
120 / 27 = 4.4444444444
So it'd take them 4.44444444 (recurring) hours to make 120 calls.
