Showing fractions can be expressed in model and number line.
Using a model, you have to draw the number of parts (denominator) and shade the number of parts (numerator).

Using a number line, the line starts from 0 to the number of the denominator. You put a marker to the number that is the same as the numerator.

Both model and number line use the value of the numerator and denominator. What makes them different is how they are presented. Model can easily be understood compared to number line.

Zoologists are studying two newly discovered species of insects in a previously unexplored section of rain forest. They estimate
salantis [7]
The population Pa of insect A after t years is given by the equation 
     Pa = 1.3(1-0.038)^t 
while the population Pb of insect B after t years is 
     Pb = 2.1(1-0.046)^t

We equate the above expressions to find the number of years t it will take the two populations to be equal: 
     Pa = Pb
     1.3(1-0.038)^t  = 2.1(1-0.046)^t
     1.3(0.962)^t  = 2.1(0.954)^t
These are the equations that can be used to determine how long it will be before the populations of the two species are equal.

We can now solve for t:
     (0.962)^t / (0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
     (0.962/0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
After taking the log of both sides of our equation, number of years t is
     t = log (2.1/1.3) / log (0.962/0.954)
     t = 57 years
Therefore, it will take 57 years for the population of insect A to equal the population of insect B.

Anna [14]
Compensation for the year:$51,810(deducting vehicle expense)

An employee makes 48,700+1,530(health insurance)+2,810(paid time)=

53,040.  Also they receive 0.53 per mile x 9,000 miles=4,770

53,040 +4,770=57,810(employment compensation)

Personal work vehicle expense: 500 x 12 months=6,000

57,810 - 6,000= 51,810

There are four slices of pepperoni pizza and three slices of veggie pizza sitting on the counter. what is the probability of ran
Otrada [13]

Answer:

The probability of randomly choosing a slice of veggie pizza is 3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the measure of uncertainty of any event. It is the ratio of number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes. That is,

Probability, P(A) = (Number of a Favourable outcome) / (Total number of possible outcomes).

From the question,

There are four slices of pepperoni pizza and three slices of veggie pizza, this means

Total number of favourable outcomes = 4 + 3 = 7

The favourable outcome is the veggie pizza, therefore

Number of favourable outcome = 3

Hence,

Probability P (A) = 3 ÷ 7

P(A) = 3/7

The probability of randomly choosing a slice of veggie pizza is 3/7
