1/8(30)+1/5(20)= 31/4 = 7.75
You should slice 7 and 3/4 lbs of roast beef

The would need 7 3/4 pounds (8 if you round up) of roast beef.

To find this you'd multiply 30/1 (30 as a fraction) by 1/8. To do so, you multiply straight across which gives you 30/8 or 3 3/4 when simplified. You repeat this process for the next two numbers too (20/1*1/5 = 20/5. Simplified it equals 4). Finally you add 4 and 3 3/4 together to get your answer of 7 3/4. Round up to 8 if needed.

I hope this helps!

Lin runs 5 laps around a track in 8 minutes.
andrezito [222]

Answer:

To run one lap Lin takes 1.6 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this answer you would do 8 divided by 5. Always remember when dividing time goes first unless the instructions / directions / your teacher says differently. So, when you do 8 divided by 5 the answer you get is 1.6, and there is your answer. Also to check your answer you can do 1.6 times 5, and you get 8, so you know that 1.6 is the correct answer.

I need the answer fast
Fantom [35]

Answer:

B. What was the highest temperature this month?

Step-by-step explanation:

Rory is recording the <em>high</em><em>est</em><em> temperature</em> for the duration of the day for month's worth of data.

B. is the easiest one to answer, as you simply will have to look for the greatest number within the set, and that will be the answer.

A. is too broad, and does not imply that only the "high temperature" is needed, rather just a leveled temperature within day in that month.

C. is the opposite of what Rory had recorded, and without data, he cannot answer it.

D. is answerable as well, but, again, the only temperature recorded is the high temperature. Temperature can fluctuate depending on the time of the day, and can be in the 50s one hour and the 90s in another.

H^-16/h^x=1/h^24 can someone help me please
Basile [38]

Given:

Consider the equation is

\dfrac{h^{16}}{h^x}=\dfrac{1}{h^{24}}

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

\dfrac{h^{-16}}{h^x}=\dfrac{1}{h^{24}}

Using properties of exponents, we get

h^{-16-x}=h^{-24}       [\because \dfrac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n},a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}]

On comparing both sides, we get

-16-x=-24

Add 16 on both sides.

-x=-24+16

-x=-8

Multiply both sides by -1.

x=8

Therefore, the value of x is 8.
