Hey there!
In order to compare these fractions, we can give them a common denominator.
Our least common multiple of 3 and 8 is 24. We multiply 2/3 by 8/8 and 5/8 by 3/3 to get
16/24 and 15/24
Therefore, 2/3 is bigger.
Hope this helps!

Hey!
      There Is More Flour (2/3) Than Blueberries (5/8) There Is More Flour Because: Let's Say You Have An Enormous Pizza Sliced Into 3rds. So 1/3,2/3,And 3/3. And Lets Say You Had A Pizza In 8ths. 18,2/8,3/8,Etc. Is The Pizza That Is Sliced Into Less Pieces Bigger Than The Pizza That Is Sliced Into More Pieces? Yes, Because If It Is Less Pieces, Bigger Individual Slices. More Pieces, Smaller Individual Slices. Hope That Helps :)

A³b² a²b simplify the following expression
liberstina [14]

Answer:

a^{5}b^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of indices can be used to simplify mathematical expressions involving  arithmetical operation on variables with powers.

a^{m} x a^{n} = a^{(m+n)}

Thus, the given expression can be simplified as follows:

a³b² a²b  = a³ x a² x b² x b^{1}

               = a^{3+2} x b^{2+1}

               = a^{5}b^{3}

Thus,

a³b² a²b  = a^{5}b^{3}

The Amount of sales tax on a new car varies directly to the purchase price of the car. On a 25,000 car, sales tax is 1,750. What
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

50,000

Step-by-step explanation:

1st car had $1,750 tax

2nd car has $3,500 tax

1750(2) = 3500

 

so your tax doubled so the price must be doubled.

The car is $50,000

Algebraically using direct variation:

 

t = kp    where t=tax, p = purchase price, 

             and k is constant of variation

 

1750 = 25000k

k = 1750/25000

k = 0.07

 

Your equation is:  t = 0.07p

3500 = 0.07p

p = 3500/0.07

p = $50,000

GIVING BRAINLIEST TO THE CORRECT ANSWER!!
arlik [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No of total brown = 2 + 1 = 3 .

probability = 3 / 6

= 1 /2 .

no of males = 2

probability

= 2 / 6

= 1 /3

no of person who is both male and brown = 1

probability = 1 /6

Required probability

= probability of being brown + probability of being male - probability of being both

= 1 / 2 + 1 / 3 - 1 /6

= 4 / 6

= 2 / 3 .

∠ABC and ∠DBC are complementary angles. If ∠ABC=6x+13 and ∠DBC=4x−3 what is the value of x?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Complimentary angles are angles that add up to 90 degrees. If ABC and DBC are complimentary, then when added together, it equals 90 degrees.

ABC + DBC = 90

6x+13+4x−3 = 90

10x+10 = 90

10x = 80

x = 8
