65/80 can be reduced to 13/16.

So, it says that there are 80 M&M candies in a bowl. 15 are orange, so that means the others aren't orange. So, then you would do (the total number of  M&M candies in the bowl)-(the number of orange M&M candies)=The number of M&M candies that are not orange. So, 80-15=65.
So, they are 65/80 in the bowl that aren't orange. But we aren't done yet. We need to find the lowest term for 65/80. First, we'll need to find what can go into 65 and 80 evenly without leaving a remainder. Yes, you guessed it, five can go into 65 and 80 without leaving a remainder. So, 65 divided by 5=13 and 80 divided by 5=16. So, your final answer is 13/16. 
13/16 is the final answer. This is the lowest possible term for the number pf candies that aren't orange.
65/80=13/16
13/16 are the number of M&M candies that aren't orange.
Hope I helped.

Diameter=14.6 <br> round to nearest tenth
grandymaker [24]

The next greater tenth is  14.7
The next smaller tenth is  14.5

Neither of them is nearer to 14.6 than 14.6 already is.
So 14.6 is already the nearest tenth.

a group of astronauts launched a model rocket from a platform. Its flight path is modeled by h= -4t^2+24t+13 where h is the heig
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

6.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that when h=0, this is the same height for both when the model rocket takes off and lands, so when the rocket lands, time is positive. Thus:

h=-4t^2+24t+13\\\\0=-4t^2+24t+13\\\\t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\ \\t=\frac{-24\pm\sqrt{24^2-4(-4)(13)}}{2(-4)}\\ \\t=\frac{-24\pm\sqrt{576+208}}{-8}\\\\t=\frac{-24\pm\sqrt{576+208}}{-8}\\\\t=\frac{-24\pm\sqrt{784}}{-8}\\\\t=\frac{-24\pm28}{-8}\\\\t=\frac{-24-28}{-8}\\ \\t=\frac{-52}{-8}\\ \\t=\frac{52}{8}\\\\t=6.5

So, the amount of seconds that the model rocket stayed above the ground since it left the platform is 6.5 seconds
