Describe how you think you can use U.S. traditional multiplication to multiply a 1 digit number by any size number .

Ms graves gave her class 12 minutes to read. Carrie read 5 1/2pages in that time. At what rate ,in pages per hour ,did Carrie re

Rainbow [258]

12 mins
60 mins per hour
we are trying to find an equivilent fraction that has 60 in the bottom
so
(5 and 1/2)/12=x/60
multiply both sides by 60
330/12=x
divide
27 and 1/2=x

A spinner has equal regions numbered 1 through 20. What is the probability that the spinner will stop on an odd number or a mult

klio [65]

Answer:

Probability that the spinner will stop on an odd number or a multiple of 5 is 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = $\frac{Required outcomes}{Total possible outcomes}$

We are given the equal regions numbered from 1 through 20 which means that our total possible outcomes are 20

Total possible outcomes: 20

Outcomes that spinner will stop on an odd number, n(Odd): 10

1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19

Probability of spinner stoping on Odd number:

P(Odd) = $\frac{n(Odd)}{Total}$ = $\frac{10}{20}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ = 0.5

Outcomes that spinner will stop on a multiple of 5, n(5): 4

5, 10, 15, 20

Probability of spinner stoping on multiple of 5:

P(5) = $\frac{n(5)}{Total}$ = $\frac{4}{20}$ = $\frac{1}{5}$ = 0.2

Odd numbers which are a multiple of 5 are: 5 and 15

So,

P(Odd and 5) = $\frac{2}{20}=\frac{1}{10}=0.1$

Thus Probability of spinner stopping at odd number or a multiple of 5 becomes:

P(Odd or 5) = P(Odd) + P(5) - P(Odd and 5) = 0.5 + 0.2 - 0.1 = 0.6

Two sets of equatic expressions are shown below in various forms: Line 1: x2 + 3x + 2 (x + 1)(x + 2) (x + 1.5)2 − 0.25 Line 2: x

kherson [118]

Answer: The correct line is

$\textup{Line 1 :}x^2+3x+2=(x+1)(x+2)=(x+1.5)^2-0.25.$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given the following two sets of quadratic expressions in various forms:

$\textup{Line 1: }x^2+3x+2=(x+1)(x+2)=(x+1.5)^2-0.25,\\\\\textup{Line 2 :}x^2+5x+6=(x+2)(x+3)=(x+2.5)^2+6.25.$

We are to select one of the lines from above that represent three equivalent expressions.

We can see that there are three different forms of a quadratic expression in each of the lines:

First one is the simplified form, second is the factorised form and third one is the vertex form.

So, to check which line is correct, we need to calculate the factorised form and the vertex form from the simplified form.

We have

$\textup{Line 1: }\\\\x^2+3x+2\\\\=x^2+2x+x+2\\\\=x(x+2)+1(x+2)\\\\=(x+1)(x+2),$

and

$x^2+3x+2\\\\=x^2+2\times x\times 1.5+(1.5)^2-(1.5)^2+2\\\\=(x+1.5)^2-2.25+2\\\\=(x+1.5)^2-0.25.$

So,

$\textup{Line 1 :}x^2+3x+2=(x+1)(x+2)=(x+1.5)^2-0.25.$

Thus, Line 1 contains three equivalent expressions.

Now,

$\textup{Line 2: }\\\\x^2+5x+6\\\\=x^2+3x+2x+6\\\\=x(x+3)+2(x+3)\\\\=(x+2)(x+3),$

and

$x^2+5x+6\\\\=x^2+2\times x\times 2.5+(2.5)^2-(2.5)^2+6\\\\=(x+2.5)^2-6.25+6\\\\=(x+2.5)^2-0.25\neq (x+2.5)^2+6.25.$

So,

$\textup{Line 2 :}x^2+3x+2=(x+1)(x+2)=(x+1.5)^2+6.25.$

Thus, Line 2 does not contain three equivalent expressions.

Hence, Line 1 is correct.
