USE FOR MASTERY Number of attempts allowed: 1 Write two rational numbers a/b and c/d, where a, b, c, and d are the digits 2, 3,

4, or 5, such that no digit can be used more than once and that the two rational numbers are the greatest distance apart on the number line. Explain how you got this answer.

Answer:

We want to craft:

a/b and c/d

where a, b, c and d can be 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Such that the distance in the number line between these two numbers is maximized.

Then we want one number to be really small, and the other to be really large.

Remember two things:

for numbers like a/b.

if a is smaller than b, then a/b is smaller than 1.

Now, if a is larger than b, then a/b is larger than 1.

And two things,

1/10 = 0.1

10/1 = 10

So when the numerator is larger, the distance displaced in the number line is larger.

Then we want to have:

a number where the numerator is the largest option and the denominator is the smallest option:

a/b = 5/2

And the two remaining options in such way that the numerator is smaller than the denominator:

c/d = 3/4.

The distance between these two numbers is:

D = 5/2 - 3/4 = 10/4 - 3/4 = 7/4.

B) The number of volume of a cylinder is half of its number of the total surface area.
faust18 [17]

Answer:

V=179.6cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of a cylinder is given by:

V=\pi r^2h

where r is the radius and h is the height.

and the surface area:

SA=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh

the first term is the area of the circles and the second term is the area of the body.

since "The number of volume of a cylinder is half of its number of the total surface area." we will have that:

V=\frac{1}{2}SA

substitutig the equivalent expressions on each side:

\pi r^2 h = \frac{1}{2} (2\pi r^2+2\pi r h)

and we simplify and solve for the height (since is the value we don't know of the cylinder):

\pi r^2 h = \pi r^2+\pi r h\\\pi r^2h-\pi rh=\pi r^2\\h(\pi r^2-\pi r)=\pi r^2\\h=\pi r^2/(\pi r^2-\pi r)

we substitute the value of the radius r=7cm, and we get:

h=\pi (7cm)^2/(\pi (7cm)^2-\pi (7cm))\\h=153.938/(153.938-21.991)\\h=153.938/131.947\\h=1.1666cm

thus the volume is:

V=\pi r^2h

V=\pi (7cm)^2(1.1666cm)\\V=179.6cm^3

At the city Museum child admission is $5.30 and adult admission is $9.30 on Sunday 146 tickets were sold for a total sales of $1
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The number of child tickets is 53

And adult tickets sold out is 93

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the child tickets be x

And the adult tickets be y

x+y = 146 - - - - - - - 1

x= 146-y

5.3x + 9.3y= 1145.80 - - - - - 2

We can substitute x= 146-y in equation 2

5.3(146-y) + 9.3y= 1145.80 - -- 2

773.8 - 5.3y +9.3y = 1145.80

773.8+4y= 1145.80

4y= 1145.80-773.8

4y= 372

y= 372/4

y= 93

We can now substitute y= 93 in equation 1 to find x

x+ 93= 146

x= 146-93

x= 53

Hence

The number of child tickets is 53

And adult tickets sold out is 93

Graph the equation<br> y = 5x<br> Use the graphing tool to graph the line.
taurus [48]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

You want a line that goes through (0, 0) and has a slope of 5. That means it will also go through (1, 5) and (2, 10), for example. I like the attached graphing tool because it will draw the graph directly from the equation.
