$1.6=1\dfrac{6}{10}=\dfrac{16}{10}=\dfrac{8}{5}=\dfrac{24}{15}\\
\dfrac{4}{3}=\dfrac{20}{15}\\\\
\dfrac{24}{15}>\dfrac{20}{15}\Rightarrow\text{YES}$

in a choir the ratio of men to woman is 4:7. 25% of the men prefer classical songs, and 80% of the women prefer classical songs.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

percentage of men in the choir = (4/11) x 100 = 36.4%

percentage of women in the choir = (7/11) x 100 = 63.6%

Percentage of men in the choir that prefer classical songs = 36.4 x0.25 = 9.1%

Percentage of women in the choir that prefer classical songs = 0.8 x 63.6% = 50.9%

percentage of the choir prefer classical songs = 50.9% + 9.1% = 60%

the Olympic record for the men's 100m freestyle is 47 seconds. the Olympic record for the women's 50m freestyle is 24 seconds. w

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit rate of the 100m race is 2.12... m/s which you get by dividing the 100 meters by the 47 seconds. The unit rate for the 50m race is 2.08... m/s which you get by dividing the 50 meters by the 24 seconds. This means that the record for the 100m race is faster.

Is 7.8 cm, 1.1 cm, 9.1 cm a triangle

Anna35 [415]

Answer: The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. Since, 11 + 21 > 16, 11 + 16 > 21, and 16 + 21 > 11, you can form a triangle with side lengths 11 mm, 21 mm, and 16 mm.

The graph of a function is shown below. Which ordered pair best represents the location of the y intercept

Wittaler [7]

When a question is asking you for the y-intercept based on a graph, all you have to do is look to see at what point does the function cross/intersect the y-axis. The x-value will always be zero in a y-intercept. By looking at the graph you see that the function crosses the y-axis at the point (0, -1), which is your answer.

Answer: (0, -1)

The point P(1,1/2) lies on the curve y=x/(1+x). (a) If Q is the point (x,x/(1+x)), find the slope of the secant line PQ correct

lukranit [14]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the equation of the curve

$y=\dfrac{x}{1+x}$

Point $P\left(1,\dfrac{1}{2}\right)$ lies on the curve.

Point $Q\left(x,\dfrac{x}{1+x}\right)$ is an arbitrary point on the curve.

The slope of the secant line PQ is

$\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{\frac{x}{1+x}-\frac{1}{2}}{x-1}=\dfrac{\frac{2x-(1+x)}{2(x+1)}}{x-1}=\dfrac{\frac{2x-1-x}{2(x+1)}}{x-1}=\\ \\=\dfrac{\frac{x-1}{2(x+1)}}{x-1}=\dfrac{x-1}{2(x+1)}\cdot \dfrac{1}{x-1}=\dfrac{1}{2(x+1)}\ [\text{When}\ x\neq 1]$
