Lola's Car's Gas Tank is 7/8 Full Would She Have More If She Had 4/5 Of a Tank. Why?

1 answer:

No she would not have a fuller tank if she had 4/5 of one instead of 7/8.
In this situation you need to convert the fractions so that they have common denominators.
In order to achieve this I multiplied both the numerator and the denominator of 7/8 by 5.
I also multiplied both the numerator and denominator of 4/5 by 8.
7/8*5=35/40.
4/5*8=32/40.
Now you can easily tell that 7/8 is larger than 4/5.

Hope this helps! (:

The blueprint of a pool has a scale of 2 inches equals 7 feet. The scale drawing is shown below. the length is 20 and the width

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Part A:

Blueprint 10 inches ⇒ Actual 35 feet

Blueprint 20 inches ⇒ Actual 70 feet

Part B:

The cost of the cover is $857.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

∵ The drawing scale is 2 inches for 7 feet

∵ The length = 20 inches and the width = 10 inches

∴ The actual length = (20 × 7) ÷ 2 = 70 feet

∴ The actual width = (10 × 7) ÷ 2 = 35 feet

Part B:

∵ The cost per square foot = $0.35

∵ The area of the pool = 70 × 35 = 2450 feet ²

∴ The cost of the cover = 2450 × 0.35 = $857.5

Graph the equation by plotting three points. If all three are correct the line will appear -3y=-2x-6

Pachacha [2.7K]

Three possible points are:
(-3, 0)
(0, 2)
(3, 4)

To find any points, simply select any value for x. Input that value, then find the corresponding y-value.

For example, if x = 0, then:

-3y = -2(0) - 6
-3y = -6
y = 2
