Convert 2/5 to a decimal and you get .4, or 40%. 40% of the band members also sing, so yes, the band has the same number of string instrument players and singers.
There's some unknown (but derivable) system of equations being modeled by the two lines in the given graph. (But we don't care what equations make up these lines.)
There's no solution to this particular system because the two lines are parallel.
How do we know they're parallel? Parallel lines have the same slope, and we can easily calculate the slope of these lines.
The line on the left passes through the points (-1, 0) and (0, -2), so it has slope
(-2 - 0)/(0 - (-1)) = -2/1 = -2
The line on the right passes through (0, 2) and (1, 0), so its slope is
(0 - 2)/(1 - 0) = -2/1 = -2
The slopes are equal, so the lines are parallel.
Why does this mean there is no solution? Graphically, a solution to the system is represented by an intersection of the lines. Parallel lines never intersect, so there is no solution.
Answer: 1008 letters
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, last Monday, a local mail carriers delivered 1,344 pieces of mail and of all the deliveries they made, 1 / 6 were magazines, 1 / 12 were packages, and the rest were letters. The fraction of letters will be:
= 1 - (1/6 + 1/12)
= 1 - (3/12)
= 9/12 = 3/4
We will now multiply 3/4 by 1344 to get the number of letters delivered.
= 3/4 × 1344
= 1008 letters
- you will need 2 busses to only transport the boys.
- Mark is at (1 + 5/6) miles of his house.
<h3>How many buses would it take to carry only the boys?</h3>
We know that there are (3 + 1/2) groups, such that each group fill one bus.
2/5 of the students are boys, then the number of groups that we can make only with boys is:
(2/5)*(3 + 1/2) = 6/5 + 1/5 = 7/5 = 5/5 + 2/5 = 1 + 2/5
Then you can make one and a little less than a half of a group, which means that you need 1 and 2/5 of a buss to transport the boys, rounding that to the a whole number, you will need 2 busses to only transport the boys.
<h3>How far is Mark from his house?</h3>
The original distance is:
D = (2 + 3/4) miles.
But Mark only covers 2/3 of that distance, then we have:
d = (2/3)*D = (2/3)*(2 + 3/4) miles = (4/3 + 2/4) miles
d = (4/3 + 1/2) miles = (8/6 + 3/6) miles = (1 + 5/6) miles
Mark is at (1 + 5/6) miles of his house.
