<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>The Problem:</u>

What is 36 minutes as a fraction of an hour?

<u>The Process:</u>

This time we will complete how to express minutes as a fraction of an hour.

We already know that one hour is 60 minutes, or there are 60 minutes in an hour.

\boxed{ \ 1 \ hour = 60 \ minutes \ }

Or it can also be written as follows:

\boxed{ \ 60 \ minutes = 1 \ hour \ }

To express the number of minutes as a fraction of an hour, we place the number of minutes above 60 and simplify. In other words, we divide the number of minutes by 60.

\boxed{ \ \frac{36}{60} = \ ? \ of \ an \ hour \ \ }

Divide both 36 and 60 by 12, since HCF (highest common factor) is 12.

\boxed{ \ = \frac{36 \div 12}{60 \div 12} \ }

\boxed{\boxed{ \ = \frac{3}{5} \ }}

Thus, 36 minutes is \frac{3}{5} of an hour.

The average of 10 numbers is -5. A new number is added to the list making the average -6. What is the new number?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

- 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Average is calculated as

average = \frac{total}{count}

Thus for the given 10 numbers we have

\frac{total}{10} = - 5 ( multiply both sides by 10 )

total = - 50

let the number added be x, then

\frac{total+x}{11} = - 6 ( multiply both sides by 11 )

total + x = - 66, that is

- 50 + x = - 66 ( add 50 to both sides )

x = - 16

The new number is - 16

Determine whether the lines given in each box are parallel, perpendicular, or neither
andrey2020 [161]

Answer/Step-by-sep explanation:

To determine whether the lines given in each box are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, take the following simple steps:

1. Ensure the equations for both lines being compared are in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b. Where m is the slope.

2. If both lines have the same slope value, m, then both lines are parallel.

3. If the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the other, then both lines are perpendicular. That is, x = -1/x.

4. If the slope of both lines are not the same, nor the negative reciprocal of each other, then they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

1. y = 3x - 7 and y = 3x + 1.

Both have the same slope value of 3. Therefore, they are parallel.

2. ⬜ y = -\frac{2}{5}x + 3 and y = \frac{2}{5}x + 8

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is -⅖ and the slope of the other is ⅖. Therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

3. y = -\frac{1}{4}x and y = 4x - 5

The slope of the first line, ¼, is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the second line, 4.

Therefore, they are perdendicular.

4. 2x + 7y = 28 and 7x - 2y = 4.

Rewrite both equations in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.

2x + 7y = 28

7y = -2x + 28

y = -2x/7 + 28/7

y = -²/7 + 4

And

7x - 2y = 4

-2y = -7x + 4

y = -7x/-2 + 4/-2

y = ⁷/2x - 2

The slope of the first line, -²/7, is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the second line, ⁷/2.

Therefore, they are perdendicular.

5.⬜ y = -5x + 1 and x - 5y = 30.

Rewrite the second line equation in the slope-intercept form.

x - 5y = 30

-5y = -x + 30

y = -2x/-5 + 30/-5

y = ⅖x - 6

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is -5 and the slope of the other is ⅖. therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

6.⬜ 3x + 2y = 8 and 2x + 3y = -12.

Rewrite both line equations in the slope-intercept form.

3x + 2y = 8

2y = -3x + 8

y = -3x/2 + 8/2

y = -³/2x + 4

And

2x + 3y = -12

3y = -2x -12

y = -2x/3 - 12/3

y = -⅔x - 4

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is -³/2 and the slope of the other is -⅔ therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

7. y = -4x - 1 and 8x + 2y = 14.

Rewrite the equation of the second line in the slope-intercept form.

8x + 2y = 14

2y = -8x + 14

y = -8x/2 + 14/2

y = -4x + 7

Both have the same slope value of -4. Therefore, they are parallel.

8.⬜ x + y = 7 and x - y = 9.

Rewrite the equation of both lines in the slope-intercept form.

x + y = 7

y = -x + 7

And

x - y = 9

-y = -x + 9

y = -x/-1 + 9/-1

y = x - 9

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is -1, and the slope of the other is 1, therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

9. y = ⅓x + 9 And x - 3y = 3

Rewrite the equation of the second line.

x - 3y = 3

-3y = -x + 3

y = -x/-3 + 3/-3

y = ⅓x - 1

Both have the same slope value of ⅓. Therefore, they are parallel.

10.⬜ 4x + 9y = 18 and y = 4x + 9

Rewrite the equation of the first line.

4x + 9y = 18

9y = -4x + 18

y = -4x/9 + 18/9

y = -⁴/9x + 2

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is -⁴/9, and the slope of the other is 4, therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

11.⬜ 5x - 10y = 20 and y = -2x + 6

Rewrite the equation of the first line.

5x - 10y = 20

-10y = -5x + 20

y = -5x/-10 + 20/-10

y = ²/5x - 2

The slope of both lines are not the same, nor is the slope of one the negative reciprocal of the other. The slope of one is ⅖, and the slope of the other is -2, therefore, they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.⬜

12. -9x + 12y = 24 and y = ¾x - 5

Rewrite the equation of the first line.

-9x + 12y = 24

12y = 9x + 24

y = 9x/12 + 24/12

y = ¾x + 2

Both have the same slope value of ¾. Therefore, they are parallel.

A card is selected randomly from a jar that contains 15 cards, numbered from 25 to 39. What is the probability that the card sel
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34 is 0.3333.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let random variable <em>X</em> be defined as the number on the selected card.

There are <em>N</em> = 15 total cards.

The number on the cards are as follows:

S = {25, 26, 27,..., 38, 39}

The probability of an event, <em>E</em> is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

P(E)=\frac{n(E)}{N}

In this case we need to compute the probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34.

The favorable outcomes are:

<em>s</em> = {25, 36, 37, 38, 39}

<em>n</em> (X < 34) = 5

Compute the probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34 as follows:

P(X

                  =\frac{5}{15}\\\\=\frac{1}{3}\\\\=0.3333

Thus, the probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34 is 0.3333.
