Answer: 3/16 is not equivalent to 3/8

Step-by-step explanation: 3/16 would be like eating 3 pieces of a pie that has 16 pieces whilst 3/8 would be like eating 3 pieces of a pie that has 8 pieces. They are mildly similar but 3/16 is twice as small as 3/8 and henceforth not equivalent.

Answer: 3/16 is not equivalent to 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert to decimal, and use your calculator

3/16 = 0.188, divide 3 by 16

3/8 = 0.375, divide 3 by 8

It is not equivalent, as 0 188 is not equal to 0 375, i hope this helps.

shtirl [24]

Complete question is;

A skull cleaning factory cleans animal skulls and other types of animals using flesh eating Beatles. The factory owner started with only 13 adult beetles.

After 35 days, the beetle population grew to 26 adult beetles. How long did it take before the beetle population was 13,000 beetles?

Answer:

349 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Initial amount of adult beetles; A_o = 13

Amount of adult beetles after 35 days; A_35 = 26

Thus can be solved using the exponential formua;

A_t = A_o × e^(kt)

Where A_t is the amount after time t, t is the time and k is a constant.

Plugging in the relevant values;

26 = 13 × e^(35k)

e^(35k) = 26/13

e^(35k) = 2

35k = In 2

35k = 0.6931

k = 0.6931/35

k = 0.0198

Now,when the beetle population is 12000,we can find the time from;

13000 = 13 × e^(k × 0.0198)

e^(k × 0.0198) = 13000/13

e^(k × 0.0198) = 1000

0.0198k = In 1000

0.0198k = 6.9078

k = 6.9078/0.0198

k ≈ 349 days.

Write and solve an equation based off the verbal phrase: 6 more than x is equal to 33
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

x + 6 = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

6 more than x means there's an increment in the value of x by addition of 6

x + 6 = 33

This leads to an algebraic linear equation. x is an unknown variable and can be solved for

we subtract 6 from both sides of the equation

x + 6 - 6 = 33 - 6

x = 27

Therefore, we can say 6 more than 27 is 33

they want to collect 1000 cans of food. they need to collect 8 times as many cans as they already have in order to reach their g
lyudmila [28]
Divide 1000 by 8 which would give you 125. So they have 125 cans and they need to collect 8 times as many, meaning 8 times of what they have which is 125. And 125 times 8 is equal to 1000. YOU'RE WELCOME :D
