7/11 is equal to 63/99 because 99 divided by 11 is 9, so you multiply the numerator by that number
Now you do 99 - 63 which is 36
Hope I helped

it costs 4.25 for 1 pound of roast beef. how much will it cost to purchase 2.5 pounds of roast beef? round to nearest cent

Stells [14]

Answer:

$10.64

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1 pound, costs $4.25, so to begin I added that together. And gave myself 8.50. Now, we know that we have 2 pounds. We need 2.5 so, I devided 425 by 2, and got 213.5. Now I know I have to round to the nearest cent. And 213.5 would round to 214. Now we put the decimal back in place and add our 2.14 to our 8.50 and get $10.64

The government, through a subsidy program, distributes $10000000. If each person or agency spends 55% of what is received,

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

$ 12,222,222.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P be the initial amount distributed,

Since, the spending in first instance = 55% of P

= 0.55(P)

In second instance = 55% of (0.55(P)) = 0.55² P

In third instance = 55% of (0.55² P) = 0.55³ P,

............................., so on.....

Thus, total increase in spending = 0.55P + 0.55² P + 0.55³P.....

We know that,

0.55P, 0.55²P, 0.55³P,..............

Is a GP with infinite number of terms,

Having first term, a = 0.55P,

Common ratio, r = 0.55,

Hence, the sum of the above series,

$S = \frac{a}{1-r}$

$=\frac{0.55P}{1-0.55}$

$=\frac{0.55P}{0.45}$

$=\frac{11P}{9}$

Here, P = $ 10000000,

Therefore, total amount increase = $\frac{11\times 10000000}{9}$

$=\frac{110000000}{9}$

= $ 12,222,222.22

Please explain also! I am not here just to get answers, I am here to understand. Thank you!

To help solve this, we need to use the slope formula.

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). We get these values by picking two points on a line.

For JL, we will pick points (-5, -3) and (-2, -4).

y1 = -4

y2 = -3

x1 = -2

x2 = -5.

Let's plug these into our formula.

(-3) - (-4) / (-5) - (-2) = -1/3

For LN, we will pick points (-2, -4) and (7, -7).

y1 = -7

y2 = -4

x1 = 7

x2 = -2.

Lets plug these values into our equation.

(-4) - (-7) / (-2) - (7) = -1/3

Therefore,

(-3) - (-4) / (-5) - (-2) = (-4) - (-7) / (-2) - (7)

The correct answer is G.
