9/9 = 1 and 8/9 is only 1/9 less than 9/9 which is 1.

Answer: B) 1  8/9 is closer to 1

In order to find this out, you could convert all the numbers to have the same common denominator. If you made the denominator 18, then
8/9 = 16/18
1/2 = 9/18
1 = 18/18
0 = 0/18.

This allows a clear comparison which shows that 8/9 is closest to 1 out of those options as it is only 2/18 (or 1/9) different. Therefore, the answer is B.

What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is 2x + 4y = 56.<br><br> HELP ASAP
Anton [14]

Answer:

Let's put this equation in standard form...

2x+4y=56\\4y=56-2x\\y=14-0.5x

If it is parallel, it would have the SAME slope but ANY OTHER y-intercept!!

For example...

y=-0.5x+304\\y=-0.5x-67

Hope this helps!!

The first term of a geometric sequence is 15, and the 5th term of the sequence is <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B24
sladkih [1.3K]

The geometric sequence is 15,9,\frac{27}{5},\frac{81}{25},  \frac{243}{125}

Explanation:

Given that the first term of the geometric sequence is 15

The fifth term of the sequence is \frac{243}{125}

We need to find the 2nd, 3rd and 4th term of the geometric sequence.

To find these terms, we need to know the common difference.

The common difference can be determined using the formula,

a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}

where a_1=15 and a_5=\frac{243}{125}

For n=5, we have,

\frac{243}{125}=15(r)^4

Simplifying, we have,

r=\frac{3}{5}

Thus, the common difference is r=\frac{3}{5}

Now, we shall find the 2nd, 3rd and 4th terms by substituting n=2,3,4 in the formula a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}

For n=2

a_2=15(\frac{3}{5} )^{1}

   =9  

Thus, the 2nd term of the sequence is 9

For n=3 , we have,

a_3=15(\frac{3}{5} )^{2}

   =15(\frac{9}{25} )

   =\frac{27}{5}

Thus, the 3rd term of the sequence is \frac{27}{5}

For n=4 , we have,

a_4=15(\frac{3}{5} )^{3}

    =15(\frac{27}{25} )

    =\frac{81}{25}

Thus, the 4th term of the sequence is \frac{81}{25}

Therefore, the geometric sequence is 15,9,\frac{27}{5},\frac{81}{25},  \frac{243}{125}

In a clothing store, 65% of the customers buy a shirt, 30% of the customers
diamong [38]

Answer:

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

List out known probabilities

\Pr(shirt) = 0.65 = \frac{65}{100} = \frac{13}{20}\\ \Pr(pants) = 0.40 = \frac{30}{100} = \frac{6}{20}\\\Pr(shirt \cap pants) = 0.20 = \frac{20}{100}=\frac{1}{5}

recall equation

\Pr(A \cup B)=\Pr(A)+\Pr(B)-\Pr(A \cap B)

Plug in values

\Pr(shirt \cup pants)=\frac{13}{20}+\frac{6}{20}-\frac{1}{5}\\\\therefore \Pr(shirt \cup pants) = \frac{15}{20} =\frac{3}{4} = 75\%
