Answer:
Tim gets 8 pounds and Sam gets 32 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 40 by 5
40/5=8
Now 8 is 1 part of the ratio. Just put it in the ratio now and you get:
Tim gets 8 pounds and Sam gets 32 pounds
Answer:
an infinite number
Step-by-step explanation:
The left side of the equation is a restatement of the right side of the equation. It is true for all values of x. There are an infinite number of solutions.
Answer:
5,120 bacterias
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the amount of bacteria after x hours modelled by the equation:
f(x) = 20(2)^x/12
Note that x is in hours not days
To calculate the number of bacteria that will be contained within the culture after 4 days, we will first convert 4days into hours since x is in hours.
24hours = 1day
xhours = 4days
x = 24×4
x = 96hours
Substituting x = 96 into the equation
f(96) = 20(2)^96/12
f(96) = 20(2)^8
f(96) = 20×2^8
f(96) = 20×256
f(96) = 5,120
The number of bacteria that will be contained after 4days is 5,120bacterias
One way is to make them all decimals or all fractions:
.5 .2 .35 .48 .80 are the numbers above changed to decimals.
I will make them the same length (two digit past the decimal point) to compare
.50 .20 .35 .48 and .80
Now it is easy to put them in order
.2 .35 .48 .5 and .80
Let's put them into all fractions
5/10 1/5 35/100 12/25 and 4/5
Instead of finding a common denominator let's try this:
Think of them as test scores - the person who got 1 out 5 did the worst
Next came the person who got only 35 out of 100 - they only did better than the one above (1/5)
12/25 is almost 1/2 but a little below half the questions right
5/10 is exactly half the questions right (so it is bigger than 12/25 by a little).
4/5 is the best score (and the only one who passed).
So 1/5, 35/100, 12/25, .5 and 4/5 are in order least to greatest and match the answer above in bold.
