Five cats each ate 1/4 cup of canned food . How much food did they eat altogether?

Mathematics

Sauron [17]1 year ago

We have FIVE cats that each ate 1/4 cup of canned food.

Then, the five of them together ate:

5 times 1/4 cup This in mathematical expression is a profduct of an integer value (5) times the fraction (1/4) which we know how to multiply based on the problems we solved a few minutes ago:

5 * 1/4 = 5/1 * 1/4 = (5 * 1) / (1 * 4) = 5/4 cups

This answer can also be written as a MIXED number given that 5/4 is an IMPROPER fraction (a fraction with numerator larger than the denominator)

5/4 = 1 1/4

Not sure what answer your teacher would prefer. It depends on whether he/she wants you to use fractions or mixed numbers.

If A= (6,11), B= (1,5), and C= (7,0), show by means of slopes that ABC is a right triangle. Name the hypotenuse.
nexus9112 [7]

Since the product of AB and BC is -1, hence the ABC is a right triangle and the length AC is the hypotenuse

<h3>Right angled triangle</h3>

A right angles triangle is a triangle that has 3 sides and angles with one of its angles to be 90 degrees.

For the given coordinates to be a right angled triangle, one of the line must be perpendicular to the other and for two lines to be perpendicular, the product of its slope must be -1.

Find the slopes of AB, BC and AC

Slope of AB = 5-11/1-6
Slope of AB = -6/-5 = 6/5

Slope of BC = 0-5/7-1
Slope of BC = -5/6

Slope of AC = 0-11/7-6
Slope of AC = -11/1. = -11

Take the product of AB and BC
AB * BC = 6/5 * -5/6
AB * BC = -1

Since the product of AB and BC is -1, hence the ABC is a right triangle and the length AC is the hypotenuse

Solve the following simultaneous equations : with the help of steps<br>1. x + 2y = 1, 3x - y = 17​
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

x = 5, y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given equations:</u>

  • x + 2y = 1
  • 3x - y = 17​

<u>From the first equation we get:</u>

  • x = 1 -2y

<u>Substitute x in the second equation, find y:</u>

  • 3x - y = 17
  • 3*(1-2y) - y = 17
  • 3 - 6y - y = 17
  • -7y = 17 - 3
  • -7y = 14
  • y = -14/7
  • y = -2

<u>Find x:</u>

  • x = 1 - 2y
  • x = 1 - 2*(-2)
  • x = 1 + 4
  • x = 5
