Compare. Write <, >, or =. Write the strategy you used. 2/3 ------ 7/8

5 0

My favorite strategy is the criss cross method. $\frac{2}{3} ? \frac{7}{8}$
Take the numerator of the first fraction (2), and the denominator of the second fraction (8) and multiply them. The value 16 is now up on the left side, imaginary. (ALWAYS PUT THE PRODUCT ON THE SIDE WITH THE NUMERATOR) Now multiply the other diagonal. 3(7)=21. The 21 is on the right side. Now do 16 ? 21
Is it <, >, or =? The answer is <

If Log x (1 / 8) = - 3 / 2, then x is equal to

x- 3 / 2 = 1 / 8

The above equation may be rewritten as

x<span> - 3 / 2</span> = 1 / 23 = 2-3

(√x)-3 = 2-3

√x = 2 or x = 4

A recipe for sparkling grape juice calls for

Archy [21]

A) 3/4 is equal to 0.75. 1/2 is equal to 0.5. You need to find out how many parts of the grape juice you have. So you take your 9 quarts and divide it by 0.75. That equals 12. So for the 9 quarts you need, you will add 12 parts of the 3/4. Now you need to add 12 1/2s as well. So 1/2 (or 0.5) multiplied by 12 is 6. So your answer would be 6 quarts

Help me please????????

14.50 + 9.99 + 48 is 72.49 and the sales tax which is 8.2 when turned into a decimal is .082 so next you multiply 72.49 with 0.082 and your tax will be 5.94418 now you add 72.49 with 5.94418 and you will get 78.43418 now you need to round to the nearest cent which is gonna be 418 rounded into 43 but the 4 in the thousandths place is not the number 5 or bigger so you cant round up so it stays as 78.43 so A or 78.43 is your answer
