1/4 is an equivalent fraction to 2/8. Thus, since you have 7/8, you can give at most 3 friends that 2/8 slice of pizza.

Why?:

3 friends recieving 2/8 slices would be a total of 6/8. If you were to give another friend a 2/8 slice, you would be giving away 8/8 of the pizza... but you only have 7/8!!!!! Therefore, at most you can give away 6/8 to a total of 3 friends, and then you wouldn't have any 2/8 (aka 1/4) slices leftover!!

Hope that helps, cheers

Consider two circular swimming pools. Pool A has a radius of 22 feet, and Pool B has a diameter of 13.6 meters. Complete the des
maw [93]

Answers:

13 42 m; B; 0.57 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

Pool A:  r = 22 ft

Pool B: D = 13.6 m  

Calculations:

1. Radius of Pool A

r = 22 ft × (0.305 m/1 ft) = 6.71 m

2. Diameter of Pool A

D =2r = 2 × 6.71 = 13.42 m

The diameter of Pool A is 13.42 m.

3. Compare pool diameters

The diameter of Pool B is 13.6 m.

So, the diameter of Pool <u>B</u> is greater.

4. Compare circumferences

The formula for the circumference of a circle is

C = 2πr or C = πD

Pool A: C = 2π × 6.71 = 42.16 m

Pool B: r =    π × 13.6 = 42.73 m

Pool B - Pool A = 42.73 - 42.16 = <u>0.57 m </u>

The circumference is greater by <u>0.57 m.</u>

HELP PLEASE THANKS (;

You have 2 equations that are both equal to y. If they are both equal to y, then by the transitive property of equality, they are equal to each other (if a = b, and b = c, then a = c).
5x - 17 = x + 3 and
4x = 20 and x = 5. Now sub in that x value of 5 to solve for y:
y = 5 + 3 and y = 8. So the ordered pair is (5, 8)

Two linear functions are shown. Which function has the greater initial​ value?
tangare [24]

Answer:

Function A has the greater initial value because the initial value for Function A is 6 and the initial value for Function B is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Function A:

Initial value = y-intercept (b)

y-intercept is the value of y, when the corresponding value of x = 0

From the table, y = 6 when x = 0.

The y-intercept of function A = 6

Therefore, initial value for Function A = 6

✔️Function B:

y = 4x + 3 is given in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.

b = y-intercept = initial value.

Therefore

Initial value for Function B = 3

✔️Function A has the greater initial value because the initial value for Function A is 6 and the initial value for Function B is 3.
