Changing a fraction to its decimal form can be done by long division method. Dividing the denominator by its numerator will change the fraction into decimal form. Alternatively, you can use a calculator to do that for you. Below are the fractions with their decimal forms listed:
1.) 2/5 = 0.4 (D)
2.) 7/20 = 0.35 (A)
3.) 3/25 = 0.12 (C)
4.) 7/10 = 0.7 (B)
9 squares because if there are 18 triangles in it then you divide 18 by 2 and get 9
Answer:
-2, 8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
You can consider the area to be that of a trapezoid with parallel bases f(a) and f(4), and width (4-a). The area of that trapezoid is ...
A = (1/2)(f(a) +f(4))(4 -a)
= (1/2)((3a -1) +(3·4 -1))(4 -a)
= (1/2)(3a +10)(4 -a)
We want this area to be 12, so we can substitute that value for A and solve for "a".
12 = (1/2)(3a +10)(4 -a)
24 = (3a +10)(4 -a) = -3a² +2a +40
3a² -2a -16 = 0 . . . . . . subtract the right side
(3a -8)(a +2) = 0 . . . . . factor
Values of "a" that make these factors zero are ...
a = 8/3, a = -2
The values of "a" that make the area under the curve equal to 12 are -2 and 8/3.

<em>Alternate solution</em>
The attachment shows a solution using the numerical integration function of a graphing calculator. The area under the curve of function f(x) on the interval [a, 4] is the integral of f(x) on that interval. Perhaps confusingly, we have called that area f(a). As we have seen above, the area is a quadratic function of "a". I find it convenient to use a calculator's functions to solve problems like this where possible.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
90 kids
If the DJ is 250 and the pizza is 200 that is $450 altogether
Now if you divide 450 by 5 (the cost to attend the dance) you get 90!
I hope this helped
