Heyo Kiddo. How are you doing today? Let's figure this out!

So, we should covert each fraction so that they have a common denominator. 
Observe. 

\frac{1}{4} =  \frac{4}{20} 


\frac{2}{5} =  \frac{8}{20}

So which one is larger?
We can see that indefinitely 2/5 = 8/20 is the larger of the two fraction given.

You're welcome.

This is easier if we change these fractions into decimals

1/4 = 0.25

2/5 = 0.40


It is obvious from the decimals that 2/5 is bigger.


Good Luck! <3

Mr. Brown is creating examples of systems of equations. He completes the steps to find the solution of the equation below.
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is

5x+2y=8    ...(1)

-4(1.25x+0.5y=2)      ...(2)

On simplifying the second equation, we get

-5x-2y=-8

On dividing by -1, we get

5x+2y=8       ...(3)

It is clear that equation (1) and (3) are same equations. It means equation (1) and (2) represent the equivalent equation.

So, the given system of equations has infinitely many solutions.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Determine whether the vectors u and v are parallel, orthogonal, or neither.
Komok [63]
<span>The dot product here is 10(9) + 6(5)=120
so the vectors are not orthogonal 
</span><span>u.v = |u| x |v| cos (theta) ; theta is the angle between them 

we know from above that u.v = 120 

|u| = sqrt[10^2+6^2]=11.66
|v| = sqrt[9^2+5^2]=10.29

so we know: 

theta =cos^-1 120/(11.66x10.29)
so theta = 25 degrees</span><span>

icang [17]
If 1 additional song costs $0.59, then there would be 26 additional songs downloaded. Because $15.34 divided by $0.59 is 26. 

Let x be the number of songs downloaded.

x = 28 + (15.34/0.59)
x = 28 + (26)
x = 54

You have 54 songs downloaded on your tablet. 

Hope this helps :)
