Hello there!
First, we need to admit that math is a hard subject. So, how do we handle hard stuff? We find an easy way. Right?
Well same goes here. They give the fractions to drive us crazy. Let's find the easiest way...
The easiest way is to turn them into decimals.
1 3/7 = 1.42 which is the amount of pages he reads
2/3 = 0.67 minute.
The are asking us how many pages does he reads per minute.
So we gonna say:
Charlie reads 1.42 pages ......> 0.67
Charlie reads x pages.............> 1minute
Cross multiply
0.67 * x = 1 * 1.42
0.67x = 1.42
x = 1.42/0.67
x = 2.11
So, Charlie reads 2.11 pages in 1 minute.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have questions about the answer.
Thanks!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
p + n + d + q = 25
Put everything into quarters.
p and q are equally likely to be drawn
q + n + d + q = 25
There are 3 times as many nickels as quarters
n = 3q
q + 3q + d + q = 25
There is 25% more dimes than quarters.
d = 1.25 q
q + 3q + 1.25q + q = 25
6.25 q = 25
q = 25/6,25
=====================
q = 4
p = 4
d = 1.25 * 4 = 5
n = 12
Answer:
0.1,0.5,0.8,0.9
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>The projected amount the average American spent on health care in 2014 is $ 10075.91</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
The average American spent $8,508 on health care in 2011
The cost of health care is projected to rise about 5.8% per year for the years 2012-2022
<em><u>The increasing function is given as:</u></em>
Where,
y is future value
a is initial value
r is growth rate in decimal
t is number of years
From given,
a = 8508
t = 2011 to 2014 = 3 years
<em><u>Substituting the values, we get,</u></em>
Thus the projected amount the average American spent on health care in 2014 is $ 10075.91
