Why can't you compare 5 minutes in 240 seconds without making some kind of change

You have to have the same unit of measure. Here your units are "minutes" and "seconds". In order to compare the two, you must change to 240 seconds into minutes (dividing by 60 = 4 mins) OR change the 5 minutes into seconds (multiply by 60 to give you 300 seconds)

Answer:

m < 36

yes, Jamie is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

I've bolded the statements that you can put down to show your work

the maximum that Jamie is willing to practice for the week is 300 minutes, so you can start by creating an inequality for that.

total minutes throughout the week < 300

next, you know that a week is monday through friday + the weekend, and the amount of minutes Jamie will practice for the weekend is already given.

so, you can rewrite the earlier inequality like so

Monday through Friday practice + 120 < 300

since Jamie plans to practice the same amount of time (m) for each day, and there are 5 days between monday and friday, you can substitute values in the equation

5m + 120 < 300

simplify

5m < 300 - 120

5m < 180

m < 36

since half an hour is 30 minutes, the answer is yes, Jamie's claim is correct.

Suppose you draw a card from a well shuffled deck of playing cards what is probability of drawing a ace
Tasya [4]
So there are a totally of 52 cards right?(not counting jokers because jokers are not in official cards)
And there are 4 aces right?
So there are 52 outcomes and 4 of them are aces.
So when we write probabilities we write it in fraction form where the total number of outcomes is the denominator and the ones you want to get are the numerator OK?
So the total number is outcomes is 52 and becomes the denominator and 4 the number of aces become the numerator.
So 4/52 right?
And we now have to simplify it right?
And so we divide by the highest common factor right?
In this case 4 because there isn’t other numbers that are factors and greater than 4.
So 4 divided by 4/52 is 1/13 right?
4 goes into 4 1 time and 13 times into 52.
So your answer is 1/13
