This would be a lot easier with the figure.

Four equal spaces means quarters.

A is 1 mark to the left of 0, so 1/4 to the left of 0. That's -1/4

Answer: Negative one-fourth

Complete question :

A pair of $36 jeans were on sale at Jim's Jeans for 1/3 off. The same pair of jeans were $42 at David's Denims. The jeans were on sale for 2/3 off.

A.) which store had the better buy

B.) how much will you pay at the store that has the better buy

Answer:

A.)David's denim has the better buy

B.) $14

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim's Jean store :

Cost of Jean = $36

Discount = 1/3 off

Discounted cost = $36 - (1/3 * $36)

Discounted cost = $36 - $12 = $24

David's Denim:

Cost of Jean = $42

Discount = 2/3 off

Discounted cost = $42 - (2/3 * $42)

Discounted cost = $42 - $28 = $14

David's denim has the better buy with a discounted price lower than the discounted price at Jim's store.

Cost at store with the better buy is $14

The table shows how an elevator 500 feet above the ground is descending at a steady rate.

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

h(t) = -5t + 500

Step-by-step explanation:

At time zero, the elevator is at 500 ft.

At time 5 seconds, the elevator is at 475 ft.

The difference in height is -25 ft.

The elevator traveled -25 ft (25 ft down) in 5 seconds, so it travels at a speed of 5 ft per second. Since it is traveling down, its speed is -5 ft/sec.

For each second of travel, it loses 5 ft of height.

h(t) = -5t + 500

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

A. Equivalent ratios of 5:6

We multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, this way:

10:12 , 15:18, 20:24, 25:30

B. Equivalent ratios of 2:3

We multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, this way:

4:6 , 6:9, 8:12, 10:15, 12:18

C. We have the same number of oranges at:

10:12 and 8:12

15:18 and 12:18

Like Celeste decided not to follow the directions, she's actually using less apples than expected to fill the baskets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio that the local hospital say to Celeste to use : 5 apples for every 6 oranges

Ratio that Celeste is actually using: 2 apples for every 3 oranges

2. Complete the tables to find equivalent ratios.

A. Equivalent ratios of 5:6

We multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, this way:

10:12 , 15:18, 20:24, 25:30

B. Equivalent ratios of 2:3

We multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, this way:

4:6 , 6:9, 8:12, 10:15, 12:18

3. Circle two columns, one in each table, in which the number of oranges is the same.

We have the same number of oranges at:

10:12 and 8:12

15:18 and 12:18

Like Celeste decided not to follow the directions, she's actually using less apples than expected to fill the baskets.
