john had a ribbon that was 1 1/2 meters long. he used 2 pieces that were each 1/3 of that length. how much ribbon did john use

1 answer:

5 0

Of means multiplication. So the question is 1/3 X 1 1/2. First make 1 1/2 improper: 3/2. Then multiply the numerators (top numbers) and denominaters (bottom numbers): 1x3=3, 3x2=6, =3/6. Now simplify 3/6=1/2. Then multiply that by 2, since he used 2 pieces: 1/2x2=1. John used 1 meter :)

What fraction is equal to 50% of 1/4

Kipish [7]

1/8

50% is the same as 1/2, so you just multiply 1/2 by 1/4 to get the answer. First, multiply the numerators. 1*1 is 1. Then, multiply the denominators. 2*4 is 8. So, your answer is 1/8. If you want to check this, multiply 1/8 by 2 and you will get 1/4.

The table shows the times of the top six swimmers in the women’s 100 meter butterfly at the 2012 Olympic Games. A 2-column table

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The difference in finishing time between the 2nd and 3rd places is the shortest and it is 0.07 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first positioned swimmer took 55.98 seconds and the second positioned swimmer took 56.87 seconds to complete the race.

So, the difference is (56.87 - 55.98) = 0.89 seconds.

The second positioned swimmer took 56.87 seconds and the third positioned swimmer took 56.94 seconds to complete the race.

So, the difference is (56.94 - 56.87) = 0.07 seconds.

The third positioned swimmer took 56.94 seconds and the fourth positioned swimmer took 57.17 seconds to complete the race.

So, the difference is (57.17 - 56.94) = 0.23 seconds.

The fourth positioned swimmer took 57.17 seconds and the fifth positioned swimmer took 57.27 seconds to complete the race.

So, the difference is (57.27 - 57.17) = 0.10 seconds.

The fifth positioned swimmer took 57.27 seconds and the sixth positioned swimmer took 57.35 seconds to complete the race.

So, the difference is (57.27 - 57.35) = 0.08 seconds.

Therefore, the difference in finishing time between the 2nd and 3rd places is the shortest and it is 0.07 seconds. (Answer)

Select the expressions equivalent to

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the expression:

$(-2x+8.1y)-(-9x+5.3y)$

First, let's distribute the negative on the right. This gives us:

$=(-2x+8.1y)+(9x-5.3y)$

Now, let's combine like terms:

$=(-2x+9x)+(8.1y-5.3y)$

Add:

$=(7x)+(8.1y-5.3y)$

Subtract:

$=(7x)+(2.8y)$

Simplify:

$=7x+2.8y$

So, our answer is D.

And we're done!

The degrees of each expression will be (x-9) degree 1, -4x²-6x+9 degree 2, x²-2x+9 degree 2, -3 degree 0, 3x-2 degree 1, 6x+2 degree 1 and 5 degree 0.

<h3>What is the degree of a polynomial?</h3>

The degree of the polynomial is defined as the highest power of the variable of the given polynomial or it is the maximum power of the polynomial.

The degree of the given expressions are shown as follows:-

(x-9) → degree 1,

(-4x²-6x+9) → degree 2,

(x²-2x+9) → degree 2,

(-3) → degree 0,

(3x-2) → degree 1,

(6x+2) → degree 1

(5) → degree 0.

Therefore the degrees of each expression will be (x-9) degree 1, -4x²-6x+9 degree 2, x²-2x+9 degree 2, -3 degree 0, 3x-2 degree 1, 6x+2 degree 1 and 5 degree 0.
