When an object is divided into a number of equal parts then each part is called a fraction. A proper fraction has numerator and denominator mutually prime.

The amount of cake maria has is 8X. X is some positive real number.

She eats 3 slices, then the amount of cake left with Maria is 8X-3X=5X.

The fraction of cake left with Maria is \frac{5X}{8X}= \frac{5}{8}.

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

4x \geq 140; You need to sell at least 35 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Every 1 bag of popcorn is sold, $4 is put into the trip.

4x

You hope to earn at least $140.

4x ≥ 140

Divide by 4 on both sides.

x ≥ 35

You need to sell 35 bags or more to get $140.

An investment of 100,000 AED increases at a rate of 16% per year. What is
stepan [7]

Answer:

1,946,075.95 AED

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we write the general formula for an exponential increase as follows;

V(t) = A( 1 + r)^t

where V(t) is the value after some number of years t

A is the investment amount which is 100,000 AED

r is the rate of increase which is 16% = 16/100 = 0.16

t is the number of years which is 20

substituting these values;

V(20) = 100,000( 1 + 0.16)^20

V(20) = 100,000(1.16)^20

V(20) = 1,946,075.95 AED

“Solve the equation. Determine if it is undefined or not.”
lozanna [386]

Answer:  a) No Solution

               b) Infinite Solutions  (All Real Numbers)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

4(g + 8) = 7 + 4g

4g + 32 = 7 + 4g      <em>distributed 4 into g + 8</em>

        32 = 7             <em> subtracted 4g from both sides</em>

Since the statement is false because 32 ≠ 7, then there is NO SOLUTION

-4(-5h - 4) = 2(10h + 8)

20h + 16  = 20h + 16       <em>distributed</em>

           16  =           16        <em>subtracted 20h from both sides</em>

Since the statement is true because 16 = 16, then there are INFINITE SOLUTIONS so x can be all real numbers.
