We have to divide 9/10 by 3/12.
if we divide by a fraction, we can instead multiply by it's inverse:
so now we count:
so we can cut exactly 3 pieces!
Hello there! An example problem for this could be:
Emile is looking for a cell-phone plan. His two options are one that costs $40 up front, and costs $0.01 per text, represented by x. The second one is 15 dollars up front and costs $0.06 for each text message. Emile figures that for the first package he has to send 500 texts or more to make it less than the second one.
Answer:
x = -5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
8/(x+3)=1/(x+1)
Using cross products
8*(x+1) = 1*(x+3)
Distribute
8x+8 = x+3
Subtract x from each side
8x-x +8 = x+3-x
7x +8 =3
Subtract 8 from each side
7x+8-8 = 3-8
7x = -5
Divide by 7
7x/7 = -5/7
x = -5/7
Answer:
3 peanut cookies
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Plate 1:
Number of chocolate chip = 4
Number of peanut butter cookies = 1
Probability of drawing chocolate chip cookies from plate 1 :
Probability =( number of required outcome / Total possible outcomes)
P(chocolate chip) = 4 / 5
Plate 2:
Number of chocolate chip = 2
Number of peanut butter cookies = p
P(chocolate chip) = 2 / (2 + p)
Probability of drawing chocolate chip from plate 1 and then plate 2 = 8/ 25
(4/5) * 2/(2+p) = 8/ 25
8 / (10 + 5p) = 8/ 25
8(10 + 5p) = 8 * 25
80 + 40p = 200
40p = 200 - 80
40p = 120
p = 3
