Step-by-step explanation:

It's asking you what the probablitiy of a red car is.

Since this looks like a test/homework, I'll give some hints.

Let's say that SUV's and car's are x.

Out of x, 60 percent is cars.

Let's call the amount of cars we have y.

Out of y amount car's, 15 percent is red.

It's asking that if you randomely chose a car, what the probability would be if you got a non-red car.

Of course, this problem only needs one variable, but for the sake of simplicity, I added 2.

Hope this helps!

In the number 7,890,432, name the digit located in each of these positions.

Mkey [24]

Sure. So the hundreds digit is after the tens digit which is 3, so therefore it's 4. The millions digit is 7 places to the left, so it's 7. Ten thousands digits are 5 places to the left, so it's 9. The hundred thousands is 6 to the left, therefore 8. Finally, the thousands is 4 places to the left, so it's 0. Hope this helped!

There are 60 players on a high school football team. The ratio of juniors and seniors to freshmen and sophmores on the team is 2

nata0808 [166]

You know that the ratio of J&S to F&So is 2:3. You need two numbers that have that same ratio to total 60 players. When you multiply both numbers by 12, you have a ratio of 2:3 but the number of players is 24 to 36. Thus, the total players is 60. When looking at the ratio of Juniors to Seniors, the ratio remains 1:2, but must total 24 players. Dividing the total players by 3, you can find where 1 part of the players equals 2 parts of the others. Keeping that same ratio in mind, you are able to calculate that the ratio of Juniors to Seniors is 8:16 but when reduced, still remains a 1:2 ratio.

17. Two tanks are similar in shape. The capacity of the tanks are 1,000,000 litres and 512, 000 liters respectively

Gnesinka [82]

Given that, Two tanks are similar in shape. The capacity of the tanks are 1,000,000 litres and 512, 000 liters respectively.Find the height of the smallest tank if the larger is 300cm tall?

Assume that, the tanks are rectangular in shapes and differ only on their heights. The volume of the larger tank is

V1 = l × w × h1 while the volume of the smaller tank is V2 = l ×w × h2. The ratios of the capacities is

$\sf \frac{V1}{V2} = l \times w \times h1 \times w \times h2 = \frac{h1}{h2}$
