How do you use equivalent fractions to compare the fractions in each pair

1 answer:

Firstly you need to to reduce to a common denominator by multiplYing the whole fraction. This way you have to multiply 4/5 by 2 (both numerator and denominator). so 4/5 = 8/10. And now you have 8/10 and 9/10. You compare only numerators. This way you have 8/10 <9/10. Same goes for 2/3 and 5/8. Only here you need to multiply both fractions. The common denominator here is 24. So you have to multiply 2/3 by 8 and 5/8 by 3. You now have to compare 16/24 and 15/24. 16/24>15/24.

An artist is creating a sculpture where a globe with a diameter of 48 inches sits in a cone like a scoop of ice cream. She wants

brilliants [131]

Answer:

115.2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

What we must do is calculate the ratio between the real version and the version to be imitated, in this case the ice cream cone.

To calculate the ratio, we will do it through the diameter:

48 / 2.5 = 19.2

So the ratio is 19.2: 1

Which means that one inch of the ice cream cone represents 19.2 inches in the real version.

Therefore, in the case of height it would be:

6 * 19.2 = 115.2

Therefore, the height should be 115.2 inches.

Write an equation of the line through (6,-2) with a slope of 4

torisob [31]

Notice that for this question, they are providing you with:

1) The slope of the line (4)

2) a point on the plane through which the line goes (6, -2)

So you can directly use for this the "point-slope" form of a line which is as follows:

$y-y_0=m(x-x_{0)}$

This includes m as the slope, and the pair (x0, y0) as the pair representing the point the line goes through.

So, let's use the info they gave you to complete this:

$y-(-2)=4(x-6)$

which we can work out a little more:

$y+2=4x-24$

And even a little more to finish the equation of the line in its standard slope-intercept form:

$y=4x-24-2=4x-26$

So the equation of the line is:

$y=4x-26$
