First convert 80% into a fraction,
80%=80/100=8/10

so now the two fractions are

8/10 and 1/8

from these, 8/10 is the bigger because,
8/10 , 1/8
8×8/10×8 , 1×10/8×10
=64/80, 10/80
from 64/80 and 10/80 64 is bigger.

answer= 80%
hope this helps........

An easy way to solve this is to convert 1/8 into a percentage then see from that point.

To turn 1/8 into a percentage, you must first get the decimal form of the fraction. In this case, 1/8 as a decimal is 0.125.

Now that we have the decimal form, we can divide the decimal over 100 (common numerical number to use when dividing) to get the percentage, which should be 12.5%.

Now, our new question is 'what's bigger, 80% or 12.5%?'

The answer is 80%, since it is larger than 12.5%.

How many liters of a 10% antifreeze solution and a 40% antifreeze solution must be mixed to make 15 liters of a 25% solution? Ro
butalik [34]

Answer:

7.5 liters of a 10% antifreeze solution AND

7.5 liters of a 40% antifreeze solution

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,we were asked to find out how many liters of 10% anti freeze solution and 40% anti freeze each to make a 15 liters 25% mixture

Let’s call

the amount of liters needed of our 10% solution “x”. So, how

many liters do we need of the 40% solution? Well, there are 15

liters in total, x liters have been spoken for, so what remains

of our allotted 10 liters then, is 15-x.

Now let's solve for "x"

10% of x + 40% of (15 - x) = 25% of 15 liters

0.1x + 0.4(15 - x) = 0.25(15)

0.1x + 6 - 0.4x = 3.75

Collect the like terms and we have

0.3x = 2.25

x = 2.25 × 3

X = 7.5(Liters for the 10% anti freeze solution)

The 40% solution= 15 - 7.5 = 7.5 liters

Since "X" was used to fill for the unknown amount of 10% anti freeze solution,we have 7.5 liters of the 10% solution and another 7.5 liters for the 40% solution to end up with 15 liters of the desired 25% solution.

Write the equation of the line shown in point-slope form. (2,1) (3,8)
Ulleksa [173]

<u>Answer:</u>

The line equation that passes through the given points is 7x – y = 13

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Two points are A(2, 1) and B(3, 8).

To find:

The line equation that passes through the given two points.

Solution:

We know that, general equation of a line passing through two points (x1, y1), (x2, y2) in point slope form is given by

\frac{(y- y1)}{(x-x_1)}= \frac{((y_2- y_1)}{(x_2- x_1 )}

{(y- y1)= \frac{((y_2- y_1)}{(x_2- x_1 )}\times(x-x_1)..........(1)

here, in our problem x1 = 3, y1 = 8, x2 = 2 and y2 = 1.

Now substitute the values in (1)

(y-8) = \frac{(1 - 8)}{(2 - 3)}\times(x- 3)

(y -8) = \frac{(- 7)}{(-1)}(x-3)

y – 8 = 7(x – 3)

y – 8 = 7x – 21  

7x – y = 21 – 8  

7x – y = 13  

Hence, the line equation that passes through the given points is 7x – y = 13
