Answer: 2/15

Step-by-step explanation: What you have to do is add what they ate then subtract it from the entire pizza to get how much remains. so 2/3 + 1/5 =13/15

15/15 (the whole pizza which equals 1) -13/15= 2/15

2/3,2/6,2/8
23 is the greatest because it has larger pieces
2/6 is the second greatest because it is a little smaller than thirds
2/8 is the least because it has the smallest pieces

What is the difference between (Picture 1) and (picture 2)? A. 0 B. 2 C. 5 D. 6

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The difference between the picture is 0 , option A .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two figures as :

In figure A

The expression is 1 + 3 n , where n lies from 0 to 4

So , let f (n) = 1 + 3 n

Or,f ( n ) = 1 + 3 ×0 = 1 + 0 = 1

f ( 1 ) = 1 + 3 ×1 = 1+ 3 = 4

f ( 2 ) = 1 + 3 ×2 = 1+ 6 = 7

f ( 3 ) = 1 + 3 ×3 = 1+ 9 = 10

f ( 4 ) = 1 + 3 ×4 = 1+ 12 = 13

so, summation of ( 1 + 3 n ) from n = 0 to 4 = 1 + 4 + 7 + 10 + 13 = 35

In figure B

The expression is 3 i - 5 , where i lies from 2 to 6

So , let g (i) = 3 i - 5

Or,g ( 2 ) = 3 ×2 - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1

g ( 3 ) = 3 ×3 - 5 = 9 - 5 = 4

g ( 4 ) = 3 ×4 - 5 = 12 - 5 = 7

f ( 5 ) = 3 ×5 - 5 = 15 - 5 = 10

f ( 6 ) = 3 ×6 - 5 = 18 - 5 = 13

so, summation of ( 3 i - 5 ) from i = 2 to 6 = 1 + 4 + 7 + 10 + 13 = 35

So, The difference between the summation of functions f(n) - g(i) is

f(n) - g(i) = 35 - 35

I.e f(n) - g(i) = 0

Hence The difference between the picture is 0 , option A . Answer

The company A produces products a, and the company B produces products b. It is known that 3 percent of companies that produce p

jeka94

Answer:

0.00183

Step-by-step explanation:

The two companies produce different products and the chance to go bankrupt will be different based on the product made. So, the probability of the company A and B to go bankrupt is independent.

To find the answer of this question, we just need to multiply the probability to go bankrupt of each company. The calculation will be:

P(A=bankrupt) * P(B=bankrupt)= 3% * 6.1% =0.183%= 0.00183

A factory produces bottled water at a rate of 2,000 cases per hour. They know that 1.14% of the cases must be rejected because a

IRINA_888 [86]

1.14 per 100 or 1.14:100 or $\frac{1.14}{100}$

$\frac{1.14}{100} = \frac{n}{2000}$

I will multiply the numerator by 20 because multiplying by 20 is how 100 became 2000
22.8 cases are rejected per hour.

Meaghan and Lily are dividing 43.61 by 7. Meaghan says that the first digit of the quotient is in the ones place. Lily says it i

Ivahew [28]

Answer: Meaghan is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a number like:

123.45

the tens place would be the "2" (second number at the left of the decimal point)

The ones place would be the "3" (first number at the left of the decimal point)

Let's suppose that Lily is correct.

Then the quotient of:

43.61/7

Will be a number with two digits in the left of the decimal point.

The smallest number that meets this condition, is the number 10.

Then let's see:

7*10 = 70

then:

70/7 = 10

and:

43.61 < 70

(70 is larger than 43.61)

then:

43.61/7 < 70/7 = 10

Then:

(43.61/7) < 10

This means that our quotient is smaller than 10, then the first digit of the quotient can not be on the tens place.

Then Meaghan is the correct one.

We also could perform the quotient to find:

43.61/7 = 6.23

So yes, Meaghan is correct.
