Carter has 60 balloons. 4/12 of the balloons are black, and 3/12 of the balloons are white. The rest of the balloons are red. Which series of calculations shows how many red balloons Carter has?

Answers

Answer 1
Let

B------------> black balloons
W-----------> white balloons
R-----------> red balloons

Step 1
calculate the amount of black  balloons and white balloons
the total of balloons is 60
B=(4/12)*60=20 balloons
W=(3/12)*60=15 balloons

Step 2
calculate the amount of red balloons
R=60-[B+W]---------> R=60-[20+15]
R=60-(35)=25 balloons

the answer is 25 red balloons


Answer 2
Final answer:

To find the number of red balloons Carter has, subtract the number of black and white balloons from the total number, using fractions to represent the proportion of black and white balloons. Multiply the total number of balloons by the fraction representing red balloons to find the number of red balloons.

Explanation:

To find the number of red balloons Carter has, we need to subtract the number of black and white balloons from the total number of balloons. Since 4/12 are black and 3/12 are white, we can add these fractions together to find the total fraction of balloons that are either black or white: 4/12 + 3/12 = 7/12.

To find the fraction of balloons that are red, we can subtract the fraction of black and white balloons from 1 (since the sum of all fractions should equal 1): 1 - 7/12 = 5/12.

To find the actual number of red balloons, we can multiply the total number of balloons (60) by the fraction of red balloons: 60 x 5/12 = 25 red balloons.

Somebody Really Help On These Questions 5 and 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answers

The first question is.
6 + 6 = 12
n is the same thing on both sides of the equation
6 + 6 - n = 12 - n
You are taking an equal amount off both sides so the left and right sides are both equal still. Try it. Let n = 0.5

6 + 6 - 0.5 = 12 - 0.5
6 + 5.5 = 11.5
11.5 =? 11.5
They are both equal. In algebra a letter in an equation like this one can't change values if that letter is on opposite sides of the equation.

Jerry started doing sit-ups every day. The first day he did 15 sit-ups. Every day after that he did 4 more sit-ups than he had done the previous day. Today Jerry did 65 sit-ups. Write an equation that could be solved to find the number of days Jerry has been doing sit-ups, not counting the first day. Let n represent the number of days.
Thanks

Answers

The first day Jerry did 15 sit-ups:

a0 = 15

The 2nd day he did 4 more sit-ups then the previous:

a1 = a0 + 4

The 3rd day he did 4 more sit-ups then the previous:

a2 = a1 + 4

a2 = a0 + 4 + 4

a2 = a0 + 4*4

the (n+1)-th day he did:

an = a0 + 4n

Today Jerry did 65 sit-ups means we have: an = 65 and we need to find n

a0 + 4n = 65

15 + 4n = 65

Now to solve

subtract 15 from both sides 

4n = 50

divide both sides by 4

n = 12.5


But I think this is counting the first day

Not counting the first day would be

4n = 65

n = 16.25


I guess that's the answer :)

Answers

Given two angles of a triangle, we can find the third one by subtracting what we have from 180:
180-63.2-75.9=40.9°.  This means C is correct.
This also means that B is correct; if a triangle is equilateral, all angles must be congruent as well, which these are not.

Cross multiplying the proportion we have:
x*1 = 3(y-3)
1x = 3y - 9
Solving for y, we first cancel the 9 by adding:
1x+9 = 3y
Now we cancel the 3 by dividing:
1x/3 + 9/3 = 3y/3
1/3x + 3 = y
In this format, we can see that the slope (m) is 1/3 and the y-intercept (b) is 3.

Going by the directions for the points P, Q, R, and S, PQ would be parallel to SR and PS would be parallel to QR.  These sides are not parallel to any other sides of this figure.

For the last problem, the vertices given do not form a parallelogram.  There is only 1 pair of parallel sides using these points.

The correct option is (A) (-3,5). The answer covers the relationship between angles in quadrilaterals, properties of triangles, and concepts related to similar triangles and equations.

Angles in quadrilaterals:

In the first scenario, if one angle is 24 degrees more than the other on a straight line, the correct choices are A. The measure of the smaller angle is 33 degrees and D. The measure of the larger angle is 102 degrees.

Triangles:

For the triangle with sides 4.23 meters, the correct statements are A. The triangle is an obtuse triangle and D. The triangle should be isosceles.

Similar Triangles and Equations:

When using the proportion y-3/x=1/3, the correct statements are A. It has a slope of -1/3 and E. It has a y-intercept of 1/3.

There are three numbers that are their own cube roots. What are the numbers?

Answers

The 3 number should be: 0, 1 and -1. 

Final answer:

The three numbers that are their own cube roots are 0, 1, and 8.

Explanation:

The three numbers that are their own cube roots are 0, 1, and 8.

A cube root of a number is a value that, when raised to the power of 3, gives the original number. For example, the cube root of 8 is 2 because 2³ = 8. Similarly, the cube root of 0 is 0 and the cube root of 1 is 1.

So, the numbers that are their own cube roots are 0, 1, and 8.

The modified version of box-plot displays the outliers of the data by a point  if present,

Since 6 is the outlier of the data.

Therefore the 6 is the value which would be represented by a point in a modified box plot.
