One group (A) contains 155 people. One-fifth of the people in group A will be selected to win $20 fuel cards. There is another group (B) in a nearby town that will receivethe same number of fuel cards, but there are 686 people in that group. What will be the ratio of nonwinners in group A to nonwinners in group B after the selections aremade? Express your ratio as a fraction or with a colon.

Answers

Answer 1

According to the information given in the exercise:

- Group A contains a total of 155 people.

- One-fifth of that people will be selected to win $20 fuel cards.

- The total number of people in Group B is 686.

Then, you can determine that the number of people that will be selected to win $20 fuel cards is:

[tex]winners_A=\frac{1}{5}(155)=31[/tex]

Therefore, the number of nonwinners in Group A is:

[tex]N.winners_A=155-31=124[/tex]

You know that Group B will receive the same number of fuel cards. Therefore, its number of nonwinners is:

[tex]N.winners_B=686-31=655[/tex]

Knowing all this information, you can set up the following ratio of nonwinners in Group A to nonwinners in Group B after the selections are made:

[tex]\frac{124}{655}[/tex]

Hence, the answer is:

[tex]\frac{124}{655}[/tex]

Find the sum of integers from 33 to 47:
33+34+...+46
+47

Answers

The sum of integers from 33 to 47 is 600.

What are integers?Zero, a positive natural number, or a negative integer denoted by a minus sign are all examples of integers. The inverse additives of the corresponding positive numbers are the negative numbers. The Z symbol is a common way for mathematicians to refer to an integer set.An integer, pronounced "IN-tuh-jer," is a whole number that can be positive, negative, or zero and is not a fraction. Integer examples include: -5, 1, 5, 8, 97, and 3,043.

So, the sum of integers:

33 - 47

Simply perform addition as follows:

33 + 34 + 35 + 36 + 37 + 38 + 39 + 40 + 41 + 42 + 43 + 44 + 45 + 46 + 47= 600

Therefore, the sum of integers from 33 to 47 is 600.

(1) Minimum refers to the lowest data in the table. we can see out of all the data in the table, the lowest is 11. Therefore,

Min = 11

(2) Maximum refers to the highest data in the table.

The highest is 99.

Find the smallest distinct positive numbers that provide a counterexample to show the statement is false.The sum of any two different odd numbers plus any even number is odd.

Answers

The sum of two even or odd numbers ALWAYS gives an even number.

We'll run a test with 1,2 and 3.

Odd numbers: 1, 3

Even number: 2

Adding the odd numbers, we get 1 +3 = 4.

Adding it to the even number, we get 4 +2 = 1 + 3 + 2 =6

The general form of an odd number = 2n + 1

The general form of an even number = 2n

Adding 2 odd numbers give 2(2n + 1) = 4n + 2

Adding to an even number; 4n + 2 + 2n

Giving 6n + 2

Any number of the form above is an even number

The statement is thus false.

Together, Katya and Mimi have 480 pennies in their piggy banks. After Katya loses 1/2 of her pennies and Mimi loses 2/3 of her pennies, they have an equal number of pennies left. How many pennies did they lose altogether?

Answers

The number of pennies they lose altogether is 288 pennies.

How to find the number of pennies they lost together?

Together, Katya and Mimi have 480 pennies in their piggy banks.

Therefore, there total amount of pennies is 480.

After Katya loses 1/2 of her pennies and Mimi loses 2/3 of her pennies, they have an equal number of pennies left.

Therefore,

let

x = number of pennies Katya have

y = number of pennies Mimi have

Hence,

x + y = 480

x = 480

Katya pennies left = x - 1 / 2x = 1 / 2x

Mimi pennies left = y - 2 / 3 y = 1 / 3 y

1 / 2 x  = 1 / 3 y

2y = 3x

y = 3  / 2 x

Substitute the value in equation(i)

x + 3 / 2 x  = 480

2.5x = 480

x = 480 / 2.5

x = 192

Therefore,

192 + y = 480

y = 480 - 192

y = 288

The number of pennies they loose can be calculated as follows;

Katya losses = 1 / 2 × 192 = 96Mimi losses = 2 / 3 × 288  = 192

Therefore, they lost 96 + 192 = 288 pennies altogether.

system of equationsb+c= -55b-c= 17

Answers

Let's solve the system of equations:

b + c = - 55

b - c = 17

Step 1: Let's isolate b on the first equation:

b + c = - 55

b = - 55 - c

Step 2: Let's solve for c on the second equation, substituting b:

b - c = 17

-55 - c - c = 17

-55 - 2c = 17

Adding 55 at both sides:

-2c - 55 + 55 = 17 + 55

-2c = 72

Dividing by - 2 at both sides:

-2c/-2 = 72/-2

c = -36

Step 3: Let's solve for b on the first equation, susbtituting c:

b + c = - 55

b + (-36) = - 55

b - 36 = - 55

Adding 36 at both sides:

b - 36 + 36 = - 55 + 36

I think you are ready to finish and calculate the value for b.
