A shipment of sugar fills
4/9 containers. If each container holds 2 2/5
tons of sugar, what is the amount of sugar in the entire shipment?
Write your answer as a mixed number in simplest form.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

For this problem, multiply these fractions.

 

First, make each one an improper fraction: 2 4/5 is the same as 14/5 and 2 3/7 is the same as 17/7.

 

Now, 14/5 times 17/7 yields 238/35 which reduces to 34/5. This may be expressed also as the mixed fraction 6 4/5.

 

So, the shipment contains 6 4/5 tons of sugar. (This is also equal to 13,600 pounds of sugar.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Areli uses 8.4 Pints of blue and White Paint

If the three-fourth is blue paint i.e.

[tex]\Rightarrow 8.4\times \dfrac{3}{4}=6.3\ \text{Pints}[/tex]

On an island there are 7 cities each 2 of them connected by a direct road they are building a 8th city they also want it to connect with the other 7 existing cities how many roads will there be after they build the 8th city

Answers

Answer:

After the 8th city is built there will be 28 roads between the cities

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of cities initially on the island = 7 cities

The number of roads between each 2 cities = 1 road

Therefore, we have the number of roads between the 7 cities are;

7 cities taking 2 at a time = ₇C₂

[tex]_7C_2 = \dfrac{7!}{(7 - 2)!\cdot 2!} = 21[/tex]

The initial number of roads between the 7 cities = 21 roads

The number of roads, 'n' there will be after the 8th city is built is therefore;

[tex]n = _8C_2 = \dfrac{8!}{(8 - 2)!\cdot 2!} = 28[/tex]

The number of roads there will be after the 8th city is built, n = 28 roads.

Nalani says the expression 9+7r cannot be factored using the GCF. Is she ​correct? Explain why or why not

Answers

Answer:

Nalani is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Nalani says the expression 9+7r cannot be factored using the GCF.

To find - Is she ​correct? Explain why or why not.

Proof -

GCF - Greater Common factor

Given that, the expression is - 9 + 7r

As

HCF(9, 7) = 1

So , we can not factor the expression.

i.e. there does not exist any number who is a multiple of 9 and 7 both.

So,

Nalani is correct.

Example -

Let the expression be 24 + 18x

HCF(24, 18) = 6

So,

24 + 18x = 6(4 + 3x)

Answers

Answer:

9 ≤ x ≤ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

2x – 3 ≤ 11 or –8x – 10 ≤ – 82

We shall determine the value of x in both case.

2x – 3 ≤ 11

Collect like terms

2x ≤ 11 + 3

2x ≤ 14

Divide both side by 2

x ≤ 14/2

x ≤ 7

–8x – 10 ≤ – 82

Collect like terms

–8x ≤ – 82 + 10

–8x ≤ – 72

Divide both side by –8

x ≤ – 72 / –8

x ≥ 9 (since we divided by a negative sign)

9 ≤ x

Combining both answers

x ≤ 7

9 ≤ x

Thus,

9 ≤ x ≤ 7

A. $2.00
B. $1.75
C. $1.50
D. $1.25

Answers

Answer:

1) B/ 0.4n = 12; n = 30

2) B/ 125 – x = 58

3) B/ $1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 0.4n = 12

n = 12 ÷ 0.4

n = 30

2) 125 – x = 58

– x = 58 – 125

– x = – 67 ( – & – will get cancelled)

x = 67

a) 125 + x = 58

x = 58 – 125

x = – 67 (pages won't be in negative)

c) 125 ÷ 58 = x

2.15 = x (wrong)

d) 58 – x = 125

– x = 125 – 58

– x = 67

x = 67 ÷ –1

x = – 67 ( pages won't be in negative)

3) 12x = 21

x = 21 ÷ 12

x = 1.75

Place the three functions in order from the fastest decreasing average rate of change to the slowest decreasing average rate of change on the interval (0,3)

Answers

Answer:

g(x), f(x) and h(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Interval: (0,3)

See attachment for functions f(x), g(x) and h(x)

Required

Order from fastest to slowest decreasing average rate of change

The average rate of change is calculated as:

[tex]Rate = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}[/tex]

In this case:

[tex](a,b) = (0,3)[/tex]

i.e.

[tex]a = 0\\b=3[/tex]

For f(x)

[tex]f(x) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^x[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{f(3) - f(0)}{3 - 0}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{f(3) - f(0)}{3}[/tex]

Calculate f(3) and f(0)

[tex]f(x) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^x[/tex]

[tex]f(3) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^3 = 16 * \frac{1}{8} = 2[/tex]

[tex]f(0) = 16(\frac{1}{2})^0 = 16 * 1 = 16[/tex]

So:

[tex]Rate = \frac{f(3) - f(0)}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{2 - 16}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = -\frac{14}{3}[/tex]

For g(x)

[tex]Rate = \frac{g(b) - g(a)}{b - a}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{g(3) - g(0)}{3 - 0}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{g(3) - g(0)}{3}[/tex]

From the table of g(x)

[tex]g(3) = 1[/tex]

[tex]g(1) = 27[/tex]

So:

[tex]Rate = \frac{1 - 27}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = -\frac{26}{3}[/tex]

For h(x)

[tex]Rate = \frac{h(b) - h(a)}{b - a}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{h(3) - h(0)}{3 - 0}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{h(3) - h(0)}{3}[/tex]

From the graph of h(x)

[tex]h(3) = -3[/tex]

[tex]h(0) = 4[/tex]

So:

[tex]Rate = \frac{-3 - 4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = -\frac{7}{3}[/tex]

So, the calculated rates of change are:

[tex]f(x) = -\frac{14}{3}[/tex] [tex]= -4.67[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = -\frac{26}{3}[/tex] [tex]=-8.67[/tex]

[tex]h(x) = -\frac{7}{3}[/tex] [tex]=-2.33[/tex]

By comparison:

From the fastest decreasing to slowest, the order is: g(x), f(x) and h(x)

Answer: IN THIS ORDER!!   g(x), f(x), h(x).

Her brother is 9.

Because she is 3 years older than half his age, subtract 3 - 21. This gives 18. Then divide 18 / 2. This gives 9.

The equation that represents Genevieve's brother is y = 18/2.

What is the equation that represents Genevieve's brother age?

The equation that represents Genevieve's age:

21 = 3 + 2Y

Where Y represents Genevieve's brother age

In order to determine the required equation, make y the subject of the formula

21 - 3 = 2y

18 = 2y

y = 18/2
