What are three ratios equal to 4 over 28 .simplify if needed?

1 answer:

6 0

4/28 = 1/7 when dividing both numerator & denominator by 4 and this would be the simplified fraction.

You could use 1/7 to multiply with others to get other ratios that are equal to 4/28 or you could just use 4/28.

For example:
1/7 = 7/49
or
4/28 = 8/56

Answer:

50/18 or 2.77

Step-by-step explanation:

So first u have to make the 3 1/3 and 1 1/5 into improper fractions.

Then, you can do the keep, change, flip thing and then u get 10/3 x 5/6 to get 50/18

15 points!

Hi there! You are provided with two points, this is all you need to calculate the line's slope.

The equation for slope is:

$\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

$\frac{10 - 8}{3 - 7} = -\frac{2}{4}$

Slope: -2/4

Point slope form, or y-y1 = m(x - x1). All we have to do is take the x and y coordinates of either point, as well as the slope, and plug them into the equation.

y - 10 = -2/4(x - 3)

Write the equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)

$y - 10 = -2/4(x-3)\\y = -2/4(x-3) + 10\\y = -2/4x + 1.5 + 10\\y = -2/4x + 11.5$

A) -2/4

B) y - 10 = -2/4(x - 3)

C) y = -2/4x + 11.5

I tell you these facts about a mystery number, $c$: $\bullet$ $1.5 < c < 2$ $\bullet$ $c$ can be written as a fraction wit

makkiz [27]

Answer:

Possible answer: $\displaystyle c = \frac{16}{10} = \frac{8}{5} = 1.6$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the bounds of $c$ as fractions:

The simplest fraction for $1.5$ is $\displaystyle \frac{3}{2}$ . Write the upper bound $2$ as a fraction with the same denominator:

$\displaystyle 2 = 2 \times 1 = 2 \times \frac{2}{2} = \frac{4}{2}$ .

Hence the range for $c$ would be:

$\displaystyle \frac{3}{2} < c < \frac{4}{2}$ .

If the denominator of $c$ is also $2$ , then the range for its numerator (call it $p$ ) would be $3 < p < 4$ . Apparently, no whole number could fit into this interval. The reason is that the interval is open, and the difference between the bounds is less than $2$ .

To solve this problem, consider scaling up the denominator. To make sure that the numerator of the bounds are still whole numbers, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by a whole number (for example, 2.)

$\displaystyle \frac{3}{2} = \frac{2 \times 3}{2 \times 2} = \frac{6}{4}$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{4}{2} = \frac{2\times 4}{2 \times 2} = \frac{8}{4}$ .

At this point, the difference between the numerators is now $2$ . That allows a number ( $7$ in this case) to fit between the bounds. However, $\displaystyle \frac{1}{c} = \frac{4}{7}$ can't be written as finite decimals.

Try multiplying the numerator and the denominator by a different number.

$\displaystyle \frac{3}{2} = \frac{3 \times 3}{3 \times 2} = \frac{9}{6}$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{4}{2} = \frac{3\times 4}{3 \times 2} = \frac{12}{6}$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{3}{2} = \frac{4 \times 3}{4 \times 2} = \frac{12}{8}$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{4}{2} = \frac{4\times 4}{4 \times 2} = \frac{16}{8}$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{3}{2} = \frac{5 \times 3}{5 \times 2} = \frac{15}{10}$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{4}{2} = \frac{5\times 4}{5 \times 2} = \frac{20}{10}$ .

It is important to note that some expressions for $c$ can be simplified. For example, $\displaystyle \frac{16}{10} = \frac{2 \times 8}{2 \times 5} = \frac{8}{5}$ because of the common factor $2$ .

Apparently $\displaystyle c = \frac{16}{10} = \frac{8}{5}$ works. $c = 1.6$ while $\displaystyle \frac{1}{c} = \frac{5}{8} = 0.625$ .

What is .00000786 in scientific notation

Bas_tet [7]

Sorry that I don't have the answer. Hope this helps!

Remember that any whole number can be written with a decimal point. For example: 2,890,000,000 = 2,890,000,000.0

Now, move the decimal place until you have a number between 1 and 10. If you keep moving the decimal point to the left in 2,890,000,000 you will get 2.89.

Next, count how many places you moved the decimal point. You had to move it 9 places to the left to change 2,890,000,000 to 2.89. You can show that you moved it 9 places to the left by noting that the number should be multiplied by 109
