Answer:

11/20

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to find the fraction of the cake that Jake ate if you know that he ate 55% of it, you have to turn the 55% into a fraction. To do this, first you have to divide the percent by 100:

55/100

Then, you have to simplify the fraction. In this case, you can do it by dividing by 5:

11/20

According to this, the fraction of the cake that Jake ate is 11/20.

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not properly presented; I will answer this with the following similar question.

$h(x) = -\frac{1}{3}x^2 + 4$ --- $x \ne 2$

$h(x) = -4$ --- $x= 2$

Required

$h(-5)\ \&\ h(2)$

Calculating h(-5)

This implies that: x = -5

$-5 \ne 2$

So, we make use of:

$h(x) = -\frac{1}{3}x^2 + 4$

Substitute -5 for x

$h(-5) = -\frac{1}{3} * (-5)^2 + 4$

$h(-5) = -\frac{1}{3} * 25 + 4$

$h(-5) = -\frac{25}{3} + 4$

Take LCM

$h(-5) = \frac{-25+12}{3}$

$h(-5) = -\frac{13}{3}$

Calculating h(2)

This implies that: x = 2

$2 = 2$

So, we make use of:

$h(x) = -4$

Substitute 2 for x

$h(2) = -4$

Use the above explanation to answer your question

Answer:

C) 8x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Ultimately you want the two problems to be equal. It is not 6x because if you distribute 3 in this case, you will get 18x so it is 8x, it is also not -12 because it will be -36 as a result, so your answer is 8x-4.
