I cant figure out 17 :3 and 68 :12 are equivalent

Mathematics

First of all, the fractions are equivalent:

\dfrac{17}{3} = \dfrac{17\cdot 4}{3\cdot 4} = \dfrac{68}{12}

As for the second part, we have

\dfrac{3 \text{ slices}}{2\text{ minutes}}=\dfrac{3\cdot 5 \text{ slices}}{2\cdot 5\text{ minutes}} = \dfrac{15 \text{ slices}}{10\text{ minutes}}

Answer:

17:3 is 68:12 simplified

15 slices will be eaten in 10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

first off 17:3 is 68:12 simplified (both 68 and 12 go into 4 resulting in 17 and 3)

you have to divide 10 by 2 which will give you 5

and then multiply by 3

to get 15

Suppose that taxis in New York are driven an average of 60,000 miles per year with a standard deviation of 11,000 miles. Assume
Gre4nikov [31]
<span>Let n be the number of taxis in NY. The average distance travelled is 60,000 miles, therefore the middle 95% will have the same average as the population, the reason being the mileage is symmetrically distributed about the mean Therefore the total number of miles in one year for the middle 95% is 60,000 * 0.95 * n
</span><span>The range of miles driven by the middle 95% can be found from the empirical rule that says: For a normal distribution, approximately 95% of the data points lie within the range plus and minus 2 standard deviations of the population mean. In this case the range is (60,000-22,000) to (60,000 + 22,000)</span>

8-3(x - 5) + 2x + 3 how do I solve this ​
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The answer is -x+26.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you distribute the -3 into the parthensis and you get -3x+15. You write the whole expression again plus the -3x+15 you got from the distributing part so 8-3x+15+2x+3. You combine the like terms so the x with the x and the numbers with the numbers. From there you get the answer of -x+26. I hope this helps you! If you need more clarification or more help please type it in the comments below. Thanks!

Write the equation in slope-intercept form that contains the following two points.
viva [34]

Answer:

y = -3/2 x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m= (8--1)/(-2-4)

m= (8+1)/(-2-4)

m= (9/-6)

m=-3/2


point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y--1 = -3/2(x-4)

distribute

y+1 = -3/2x +3/2 *4

y+1 = -3/2x + 6

subtract 1 from each side

y = -3/2 x +6-1

y = -3/2 x +5

this is in slope intercept form (y=mx+b)

What the answer is ?
fgiga [73]

Answer:

A. 5 + 2.75 · S ≤ 21

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that it has to be less than or equal to $21 because that's all she has to spend. So we can automatically rule out the equations with ≥  because that means greater than.

We can also rule out the equations that have 50 at the very end because that's just how far she wants to travel.
