1/3 of 60 to 1/5 of 100 is 20 to 20.
1/3 x 60/1 =20
1/5 x 100/1=20
Reminder: You're able to cross-multiply.
To answer this item, we are to multiply the given amount of wood that Jake can carry which is given to be 6 1/4 by the number of times his father can which is equal to 1 5/7. x = (6 1/4)(1 5/7)
x = 75/7
Thus, Jake's father can carry 10 5/7 pounds of wood. (I've had this question before btw)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing you have to do is look at the mother curve. That curve is y = 1/x
It becomes undefined at x = 0 (I will show both curves below).
That is not what has been given. The graph you have been given becomes undefined at x = - 1 , so the equation of the curve (so far) y = 1/(x + 1)
Now we have to worry about the y intercept. When x = 0, y = 4. That can be accomplished in two ways
A. y = 4/(x + 1) or
B. y = 2/(x + 1) + 2 or
C. y = 1/(x + 1) + 3
All three of these will give a value of y = 4 when x = 0. But you have 1 problem left. What happens as x goes to say 5.
The value of A will give y = 4/(5 + 1)=4/6 = 2/3. Which does not work.
The value of C will give y = 1/(5 + 1) + 3 which gives 3 1/5 which also does not work.
Only B works. y = 2/(5+1) + 2 = 2/6 + 2 = 2 1/3 which is a little above the horizontal asymptote.
Red: y = 1/x
Blue: y = 2/(x + 1) + 2
The value at the end is never going to change. y will always be just a bit
What you have to do is multiply 0.42 by 8.3 million, then add that number to 8.3 million and you will have the total number of college students.
