Answer:

40%

Detailed solution:

John Smith and Susan Jones have contributed $240,000 and $160,000 respectively toward Expo Company. We are tasked with determining the proportion of the business owned by Susan.

First, calculate the total investment by summing both contributions.

\text{Total money invested in business}=\$240,000+\$160,000

\text{Total money invested in business}=\$400,000

Next, find what percentage $160,000 is of the total $400,000.

\text{Percentage of business Susan own}=\frac{160,000}{400,000}\times 100

\text{Percentage of business Susan own}=0.4\times 100

\text{Percentage of business Susan own}=40

Thus, Susan's share in the company is 40%.

The quotient of 9 3/4 and 5/8​
AnnZ [3900]

Answer:

15.6

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. 9\frac{3}{4} = \frac{39}{4}
  2. Insert 39/4: 39/4 ÷ 5/8
  3. 39/4 ÷ 5/8 = 39/4 × 8/5
  4. 39/4 × 8/5 = 312/20
  5. \frac{312}{20} = 15.6

I hope this information is helpful!

A frog is sitting exactly in the middle of a board that is five feet long. Every ten seconds he jumps one foot to the left or on
PIT_PIT [3949]

Answer:

Given that the frog jumps every 10 seconds

   (using digits from a random number table)

  • It requires 7 jumps with 2 in the reverse direction (either left or right) for the frog to get off the board in 60 seconds.
  • Alternatively, 3 jumps in the same direction will also lead to the frog being off the board.
  • Furthermore, it would take 5 jumps with one in the opposite direction within the time limit of 60 seconds to leave the board.

Step-by-step explanation:

A frog positioned right at the center of a 5ft long board is 2.5 ft away from either edge.

Every 10 seconds, the frog jumps left or right.

If the frog's jumps are LLRLRL, it will remain on the board at the leftmost square.

If it jumps as LLRLL, it will jump off the board after fifty seconds.

If g(x)=4x^2-16 were shifted 5 units to the right and 2 down, what would the new equation be?
lawyer [4039]
Try this method:
When a graph shifts right, replace 'x' with 'x' minus the number.
When it shifts down, subtract the number from 'y'.
So the final equation becomes: y = 4(x - 5)² - 18.
The answer is A.

Jacque needs to buy some pizzas for a party at her office. She's ordering from a restaurant that charges a \$7.50$7.50dollar sig
Svet_ta [4341]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Delivery charge = $7.50

Cost per pizza = $14

Budgeted total = $60

7.50 + 14p < 60

First, subtract 7.50 from both sides

14p < 60 - 7.50

14p < 52.50

Now divide both sides by 14

p < 52.50 / 14

p < 3.75

Each pizza consists of 8 slices

Therefore, the total number of slices she can buy = 3.75 × 8

= 30 slices

Using the extended Euclidean algorithm, find the multiplicative inverse of a. 1234 mod 4321 b. 24140 mod 40902
AnnZ [3900]

(a) The multiplicative inverse of 1234 (mod 4321) is x so that 1234*x ≡ 1 (mod 4321). We can apply Euclid's algorithm:

4321 = 1234 * 3 + 619

1234 = 619 * 1 + 615

619 = 615 * 1 + 4

615 = 4 * 153 + 3

4 = 3 * 1 + 1

Now we will express 1 as a linear combination of 4321 and 1234:

1 = 4 - 3

1 = 4 - (615 - 4 * 153) = 4 * 154 - 615

1 = 619 * 154 - 155 * (1234 - 619) = 619 * 309 - 155 * 1234

1 = (4321 - 1234 * 3) * 309 - 155 * 1234 = 4321 * 309 - 1082 * 1234

This reduces to

1 ≡ -1082 * 1234 (mod 4321)

Thus, the inverse is

-1082 ≡ 3239 (mod 4321)

(b) Since both 24140 and 40902 are even, their GCD cannot equal 1, indicating no inverse exists.
