I think it might’ve been selective breeding since that’s how corn was created way back then

7)Fraction of apple pie after eaten by Jeremy = 1 - (1/3) = 2/3

Fraction of pie eaten by Sara

$= \dfrac{1}{4}*\dfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\= \dfrac{1}{2*3}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{6}$

8)

$Fraction \ of \ allowence \ spent \ on \ magazines = \dfrac{5}{8}*\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{5*1}{4*3}=\dfrac{5}{12}$

Fraction left = $1 -\dfrac{5}{12}=\dfrac{12}{12}-\dfrac{5}{12}=\dfrac{12-5}{12}=\dfrac{7}{12}$

Solve: 2/3x - 3/4 = 5 + 5/6x

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{x=-\dfrac{69}{2}\to x=-34\dfrac{1}{2}\to x=-34.5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{3}{4}=5+\dfrac{5}{6}x\qquad\text{multiply both sides by LCD = 12}\\\\12\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^4\cdot\dfrac{2}{3\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}x-12\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^3\cdot\dfrac{3}{4\!\!\!\diagup_1}=(12)(5)+12\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^2\cdot\dfrac{5}{6\!\!\!\diagup_1}x\\\\(4)(2x)-(3)(3)=60+(2)(5x)\\\\8x-9=60+10x\qquad\text{add 9 to both sides}\\\\8x-9+9=60+9+10x\\\\8x=69+10x\qquad\text{subtract}\ 10x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\8x-10x=69+10x-10x\\\\-2x=69\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\\x=-\dfrac{69}{2}$

ASAP ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF UR RIGHT!!! The radius of the cone is 5 in and y = 13 in. What is the volume of the cone in terms of

Blababa [14]

Answer: V = $100\pi$ $in^{3}$ (third option)

Given Information:

V = $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2} h$ <-- volume formula.
r = 5
y = 13
<em>h = ?</em>

To find h...

h, r, and y make a right triangle.
h and r are the two legs, y is the hyptenuse.
$h^{2} + r^{2} = y^{2}$
$h^{2} + 5^{2} = 13^{2}$
$h^{2} + 25 = 169$
$h^{2} = 144$
h = 12

Use formula:

V = $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2} h$
V = $\frac{1}{3} \pi (5)^{2} (12)$
V = $\frac{1}{3} \pi (25)(12)$
V = $\frac{1}{3} \pi (300)$
V = $100\pi$

Ella grew 3 over 4 of an inch last year. Ben grew 2 over 3 of an inch last year. How much more did Ella grow than Ben last year?

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Ella grew $\frac{1}{12}$ of an inch more

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, you want to subtract Ben's growth from Ella's.

This expression would be $\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{2}{3}$ .

To work these out, they must have the same denominator (which should be the lowest common multiple or LCM).

In this case, the LCM is 12, so you want to multiply each side so the denominator is 12. This means the first fraction should be multiplied by $\frac{3}{3}$ and the second by $\frac{4}{4}$ .

This makes the expression $\frac{9}{12}$ - $\frac{8}{12}$ , which equals $\frac{1}{12}$ .
