Answer: a/c = 1
a/b = 1/2 => a = 1/2 .b
b/c = 2 => c = 1/2 .b
=> a/c = (1/2.b)/(1/2.b) = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
If a is half b, and b is twice c, then the fraction a:c will be 1.
What is a fraction?In such a fraction, the value that appears above the horizontal line is referred to as the numerator.
In another word, if we divide two numbers by each other then the upper word is called the numerator, and the lower word is called the denominator.
As per the given,
a is half b ⇒ a = b/2
b is twice c ⇒ b = 2c
By substitution,
a = (2c)/2
a = c
a:c = 1:1 = 1
Hence "If a is half b, and b is twice c, then the fraction a:c will be 1".

Jalen had read 14 chapters out of the book .. if this is 56% of the chapters, how many chapters are in the book?
Answer:
25 Chapters
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given:
Number of Chapters read = 14
Percentage of Book finished = 56%
Number of Chapters in the Book:
Since 56% of 'x' chapters is 14:
[tex]x*\frac{56}{100}[/tex] = 14
[tex]x = \frac{14 * 100}{56}[/tex] [multiplying both sides by 100/56]
[tex]x = \frac{100}{4}[/tex] [since 14*4 = 56]
x = 25
Therefore, the book has 25 chapters
Answer:
The book has a total of 25 chapters.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Jalen has read 14 chapters of his book. We are also given that 14 chapters is 56% of the entire book. We need to find how many chapters are in the book.If 14 is 56% of the book, we can set up a proportion that can find the total number of chapters in the book.
A proportion looks like:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}[/tex]Our first fraction will be the two values we are given: 14 chapters and 56% of the book.
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{14}{56}[/tex]Then, our second fraction will contain an unknown variable. We would need to complete this many chapters to complete the book, so 100% of the book would be read once a certain number of chapters are reached. Therefore, we don't know how many chapters are needed to complete the book, so this is our unknown variable. We can define this as x.
Therefore, our second fraction is:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{x}{100}[/tex]Now, we can set these fractions equal to each other.
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{14}{56} = \frac{x}{100}[/tex]Then, we can cross multiply our fractions to create an equation. Following our sample proportion, we would get:
[tex]{ac = bd}[/tex]So, we can follow the same policy with our proportion.
[tex]\displaystyle (14)(100) = (56)(x)\\\\1400 = 56x\\\\56x = 1400\\\\\frac{56x}{56} = \frac{1400}{56}\\\\x = 25[/tex]
Therefore, 56% of the book is 14 chapters. With this information, we have determined that 100% of the book is 25 chapters.

Hi I rlly could use some help with this! I'm not the best at math and I'm rlly struggling with this assignment its a couple questions long! I will give brainiest and 10 given points!
Info:In this activity, you will find out how many cars the baseball team needs to wash before it starts making a profit. The team spent $75 setting up the car wash, and they are charging $5 per car for a wash.
1.The first step in modeling this situation is to track how much money the baseball team will take in. Write an equation to represent the amount of money collected in dollars, y, in terms of the number of cars washed, x. Ignore the setup cost.
2.The equation you wrote in part A accounts for money collected. However, it does not account for the money the baseball team spent to set up the car wash. What do you need to do to the equation in part A to account for the setup cost?
3.Now that you have an idea of how much money the baseball team will collect and how much it will spend, you’re ready to write an equation modeling the situation. Write an equation representing the profit made on the car wash in dollars, y, in terms of the number of cars washed, x, after expenses.
4.You now have an equation to model the finances of the car wash. What is the value of the profit when the baseball team washes 0 cars? What point represents this value? What does the y-value of this point mean in terms of the problem?
5.The baseball team will break even when the amount of money it has received equals the amount of money it spent. In other words, the team breaks even when the profit is equal to zero. How many cars does the baseball team have to wash to break even? What point represents this value? What does the x-value of this point mean in terms of the problem?
Pls help!!!
1. Let y represent the amount of money earned, and x the number of cars they wash. Then
y = 5x
Why? Each car wash costs $5. So no car washes means no earnings; 1 car wash earns $5; 2 washes earn $10; 3 washes earn $15, and so on, so that x car washes generate $5x.
2. No matter how many cars they end up washing, they will have spent $75 to set up the operation, so you subtract 75 from the equation is part (1).
3. Taking into account the setup cost of $75, the profit they make is given by
y = 5x - 75
4. When x = 0, meaning no cars get washed, the profit is -$75, meaning the team loses $75.
5. Set the profit function equal to 0 and solve for x :
5x - 75 = 0
5x = 75
x = 75/5
x = 15
So the team has to wash at least 15 cars to break even.
Answer:
The setup cost is $75. To account for the setup cost, you need to subtract 75 from the right side of the equation obtained in part A.

If mZMRT = 133º , then which equation can be used to find g?
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that MRT = 133 which means that is the total. Angle MRN and NRT are what makes the total angle which is 133. To find what each angle is individually, we can add them both together.
(2g - 2) + (4q - 9) = 133
6q - 11 = 133
6q = 144
q = 24
Best of Luck!
D. (2g - 2)+(4g -9) = 133
Because,
Given, angle MRT = 133°
and MRN = 2g - 2 °
and NRT = 4g - 9°
and MRT = MRN + NRT .........(equation (i))
Placing values in equation (i) we get,
133° = (2g - 2)° + (4g - 9)°
=> 133 = (2g - 2) + (4g - 9)
=> (2g - 2) + (4g - 9) = 133
g(x) = -4x2 + 4x – 2
What is the maximum or minimum step by step
We want the maximun or minimum of [tex]g(x)=-4x^2+4x-2[/tex]
Firstly, notice that we have a leading coefficient of -4, wich means our parabola is concave down. Thus, our function will have a maximum.
To find what is the maximum, let's firstly find on wich value of x it happens. We'll start by taking the first derivative of the function:
[tex]g'(x)=-8x+4[/tex]
To find the extremes of the function, we just need to find where the derivative equals zero. Setting g'(x)=0 we have
[tex]0 = -8x+4\\8x=4\\x=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
So we found that the x coordinate of the maximum is x=1/2. To find the y coordinate we just need to substitute the value of x into the original function.
[tex]g(1/2)=-4(1/2)^2+4(1/2)-2\\g(1/2)=-1+2-2\\g(1/2) = -1[/tex]
Therefore, the maximum point [tex]M[/tex] of the function is
[tex]\boxed{M=(0.5,-1)}[/tex]

At a bakery every 4th coustmer recives a free cookie snd every 10th customer recives a free drink. Which customer will be the first to recive a free cookie and a free drink
Answer:
40th costumer
Step-by-step explanation:
The 40th costumer will receive a free cookie and drink. You need to find factors of 4 and factors of 10. Then when you find 4 and 10 have the same factor that’s your answer. So you do 4,8,16,24,32,36,40,44,48, etc. (counting up by 4) now do it to 10,20,30,40,50,60,70, etc. (counting up by 10) Now you notice that the first number that is the same is 40. So that means the 40th costumer will be the first one to receive a free drink and cookie.
Customer first to receive a free cookie and a free drink is 20th number customer
Given that;Number of customer received free cookie = 4th
Number of customer received free drink = 10th
Find:Customer first to receive a free cookie and a free drink
Computation:Customer first to receive a free cookie and a free drink = LCM of 4 and 10
Customer first to receive a free cookie and a free drink = 20th number customer

Find a set of parametric equations of the line with the given characteristics. (Enter your answer as a comma-separated list of equations in terms of x, y, z, and t.) The line passes through the point (3, 1, 2) and is parallel to the line given by x
This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Find a set of parametric equations of the line with the given characteristics. (Enter your answer as a comma-separated list of equations in terms of x, y, z, and t.) The line passes through the point (3, 1, 2) and is parallel to the line given by x = y = z.
Answer:
the set of parametric equations of the line with the given characteristics are; x = t+3, y = t+1, z = t+2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that;
line x = y = z and point ( 3, 1, 2 )
the given line can be written as;
[x-0 / 1] = [y-0 / 1] = [z-0 / 1]
if two lines are parallel directional ratios are equal.
so DIRECTIONAL RATIOS of given line is ( 1, 1, 1 )
therefore required line is;
[x-3 / 1] = [y-1 / 1] = [z-2 / 1] = t
⇒ [x-3 / 1] = t
x = t+3
[y-1 / 1] = t
y = t+1
[z-2 / 1] = t
z = t+2
Therefore the set of parametric equations of the line with the given characteristics are; x = t+3, y = t+1, z = t+2
