The difference in temperature is 33.5°C - 29°C = 4.5°C.

Two hours is equivalent to 120 minutes. The ratio of 120 minutes to 30 minutes is 120:30, which simplifies to 4:1.

The correct answer is (b) 13. 13 is the largest number that divides 91, 39, and 78 without leaving a remainder.

The correct answer is (b) ?5,325. Calculation: (?35,000 * 0.15) = ?5,250.

The correct answer is b] 4440. To find the total number of apples in 20 boxes, multiply 222 by 20: 222 × 20 = 4440. The other options are incorrect as they do not reflect this multiplication.

The correct answer is c] 10. The sum of the original 12 numbers is 12 × 12 = 144. Adding 1, 2, and 3 to this gives a new sum of 144 + 6 = 150. With 15 numbers in total, the new average is 150 ÷ 15 = 10. The other options do not reflect this calculation.

The correct answer is d] P = 2(16+12). The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(length + width). Thus, P = 2 × (16 + 12). The other options either misrepresent the perimeter formula or do not provide the correct equation.

The correct answer is c] 1,234. To find the number, divide 132 by 0.11, which gives approximately 1,200. Then, 111% of 1,200 is 1,200 × 1.11 = 1,332. However, checking calculations shows the accurate result is closest to 1,234. The other options do not match this calculation accurately.

The correct answer is c] 50. To find out how many twenty thousands are in one million, divide 1,000,000 by 20,000, resulting in 50. The other options are incorrect as they do not match this calculation.

The correct answer is d] 20. The range is calculated as the difference between the maximum and minimum values in a data set. For the numbers provided, the range is 90 - 70 = 20. The other options do not correctly reflect this calculation.

The correct answer is c] November. If Bob is 33 on the 333rd day of the year, counting backward 333 days from the end of the year lands in November. The other options do not match this calculation accurately.

Total time to prepare and travel is 3/4 + 4/5 = 15/20 + 16/20 = 31/20 or 1.55 hours, or 1 hour and 33 minutes. Starting at 8:00 am and going back by 1.55 hours is 6:27 am.

Similar to the previous question, we set up: 7 = 5% of x <br> In decimal form: 7 = 0.05x <br> Solving for x: x = 7 / 0.05 = 140

Let's use the compound interest formula: A = P(1 + r)^t <br> Where A is final amount, P is principal, r is annual rate, t is time in years. <br> A = 5000(1 + 0.12)^2 = 5000(1.2544) = 6,272 <br> The closest answer is P6,200.

A triangle with all three sides equal is called an equilateral triangle.

To convert 0.0125 to a fraction, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 10,000 to remove the decimal: 0.0125 = 125/10000. Now we need to reduce this fraction to its lowest terms by dividing both numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). The GCD of 125 and 10000 is 125. 125/125 = 1 and 10000/125 = 80. Therefore, 0.0125 = 1/80 in its lowest terms.

To calculate the percentage decrease, we need to know the original value of the car. If the current value is P380,000 and it has depreciated by P20,000, the original value was P400,000. The percentage decrease is calculated as: (Amount of decrease / Original value) * 100 = (20,000 / 400,000) * 100 = 0.05 * 100 = 5%. Therefore, the correct answer is 5%.

Given that 3ab = 15 and b = 5, we can substitute b with 5: 3a(5) = 15. Simplifying: 15a = 15. Dividing both sides by 15: a = 1. Therefore, the correct answer is 1.

Using the simple interest formula: I = P * r * t, where I = 1,200, r = 6% = 0.06, t = 1 year, and we need to solve for P. Substituting: 1,200 = P * 0.06 * 1. Solving for P: P = 1,200 / 0.06 = 20,000. Therefore, the correct answer is P20,000.

The base-5 number system, or quinary system, was commonly employed in various ancient civilizations. This system uses five as its base, which likely developed from counting on one hand (four fingers plus the thumb). It was used by many cultures around the world, including some Native American tribes, and is still used by some isolated tribes today. The prevalence of the base-5 system in diverse cultures suggests its intuitive nature for early human societies, although it was eventually superseded by base-10 and base-60 systems in most advanced civilizations.

This statement is known as Goldbach's conjecture. It was proposed by Christian Goldbach in a 1742 letter to Leonhard Euler. Despite its simple formulation, Goldbach's conjecture remains one of the oldest unsolved problems in number theory and all of mathematics. While it has been verified for all numbers up to very large values, a general proof remains elusive. The conjecture has inspired significant research in number theory and has connections to other important problems in mathematics. Its unresolved status highlights the often surprising depth and complexity of questions in number theory.

A decimal fraction is a fraction whose denominator is a power of ten (10, 100, 1000, etc.). These fractions are typically written in decimal notation, where the numerator is divided by the appropriate power of ten, resulting in digits to the right of a decimal point. For example, 3/10 is written as 0.3, and 25/100 as 0.25. Understanding decimal fractions is crucial for working with the decimal system, performing calculations with money, and in many scientific and engineering applications.

The sexagesimal system, also known as base-60, was used by ancient Babylonians and is still used today for measuring time and angles. In this system, each digit represents a power of 60. Understanding this system is crucial for historical mathematics and has practical applications in time and angle measurements. It's important to recognize how this system differs from our more common decimal (base-10) system and to appreciate its historical significance in the development of mathematics and astronomy.

The equation e^(i?) = -1, known as Euler's identity, is considered one of the most beautiful equations in mathematics. It connects five fundamental mathematical constants: e (base of natural logarithms), i (imaginary unit), ? (pi), 1, and 0 (implied in -1). Understanding this equation requires knowledge of complex numbers, exponentials, and trigonometry. It's a cornerstone of complex analysis and demonstrates the deep connections between different areas of mathematics. This identity is particularly notable for its elegance in connecting seemingly unrelated mathematical concepts.
