The ratios as fractions are 6/8 and 9/11.
Since they are not compare because they have different denominators you must find the Least Common Multiple of the two fractions.
Since 8 and 11 both can go into 88, we can use that as our denominator.
6/8 times 11/11 equals 66/88 and 9/11 times 8/8 equals 72/88.
66/88 is less than 72/88.

Therefor, Mix B is the reddest mixture.

Hope this helped!! :)

Imagine a world in which only decimals, not fractions, are used. How would your life be different?

nataly862011 [7]

I used to hate fractions. But in time, you learn to love them. This is because there's a big difference between fractions and decimals, even though when you divide the actual fraction it comes out to a decimal. Decimals go on and on sometimes, and it would be impossible to write out all those numbers, especially when taking a timed test, for example. Fractions, in this case, would be much more useful (as long as you know how to use them to your advantage). Fractions are basically all those decimal numbers wrapped up into a single, simple division. It makes the outcome of your answer much more accurate than if you estimate every decimal you get throughout a math problem. The more you estimate throughout the problem-solving process, the less accurate your final answer will be. Hence why teachers will usually tell you to estimate when you're putting down the final answer. Fractions are complex at times, so it may be easier to use them in decimal form for certain situations (especially if the decimal form is short and sweet). A world without fractions will result in many, many inaccurate situations involving mathematical knowledge.

The price of a pair of shoes is $45.90. The sales tax rate is 5%. How much sales tax do you need to pay?

Ne4ueva [31]

Multiply the price by the 5% by turning the percent into a decimal.
5% = 0.05
45.90 x 0.05 = $2.295
Which can be rounded to 2.30 if needed.

Why are inverse relationships between operations used to solve two step inequalities?

zhenek [66]

Answer:

The goal in solving an equation is to get the variable by itself on one side of the equation and a number on the other side of the equation. To isolate the variable, we must reverse the operations acting on the variable. We do this by performing the inverse of each operation on both sides of the equation.

Reverse addition and subtraction (by subtracting and adding) outside parentheses. Reverse multiplication and division (by dividing and multiplying) outside parentheses. When multiplying or dividing by a negative number, flip the inequality sign. It does not matter if the number being divided is positive or negative

It's necessary to apply inverse operations on both sides of the equals signs so that you can solve for the variable and balance the equation.

Multi-step inequalities are solved using the same processes that work for solving equations with one exception. When you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality symbol. (Much like when you divide by a negative number, the sign of the inequality must flip! Here's why: When you multiply both sides by a negative value you make the side that is greater have a "bigger" negative number, which actually means it is now less than the other side!)

I need the answers to this question

Answer: Madison can travel 2.2 miles less than Anthony on one gallon of gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation y = 39.1 $x$ represents the number of miles, $y$ , that madison can drive her car for every x gallons of gas.

Question: Madison can travel _ miles _ than Anthony on one gallon of gas.

Lets find how much Madison travels on 1 gallon of gas.

39.1(1) = 39.1

Therefore, Madison travels 39.1 miles on one gallon of gas.

Now lets solve for Anthony

Anthony travels 380.7 miles on 9 gallons of gas.

Therefore we can set up the equation:

9x = 380.7 to show that 9 gallons equates to 380.7 miles

to solve divide 9 from both sides

$\frac{9x}{9} =\frac{380.7}{9}$

x = 41.3

So, Anthony travels 41.3 miles on one gallon of gas

Now find whether Madison travels more or less than Anthony on one gallon.

39.1 - 41.3 = -2.2

This means that Anthony can travel 2.2 miles more than Madison.

For your answer, this means that:

Madison can travel 2.2 miles less than Anthony on one gallon of gas

Hope this helped and have a nice day :)
