Because 3/4 and 3/8 is more than one cup, Jasmine will not be able to mix the flour and the cornmeal in the container.

3/4+3/8=6/8+3/8=9/8

We know that 8/8 is equivalent to 1 (cup). We have to combine the fractions using a common denominator. A common denominator in this case would be 8. To change 3/4, you must multiply the numerator and denominator by two, because that will give you 8 on the bottom and also, whatever you do to the top you must do to the bottom, and vice versa. So, now we have 3/8 & 6/8. To add fractions you just add the numerators and keep the common denominator. You get 9/8. If 8/8 is 1, than 9/8 exceeds the 1 cup limit, and therefore Jasmine cannot mix the ingredients in that container.

Online jewelry sales have increased steadily over the last 10 years. In 2003, sales were approximately 2 billion dollars, and in
UNO [17]

Answer:

rate\ of\ increase = 28.8\ billion\ dollars\ per\ year

model: y = 28.8(t-2003) + 2

profit in year 2017: y =  405.2\ billion\ dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

The sales increased from 2 billion dollars to 146 billion dollars in five years, so to find the increase in billion dollars per year, we just need to divide the increase by the amount of time:

rate\ of\ increase = (146 - 2)/5 = 144 / 5 = 28.8\ billion\ dollars\ per\ year

To construct a model for these sales, we can use the year 2003 as the initial point of a linear equation:

y = ax + b

the variable y will represent the profit in billion dollars, the variable x will represent our time, so we can use (t - 2003) in its place to represent the number of years since 2003 (t is the year we want to calculate), the constant 'a' will be our rate of 28.8, and the constant 'b' is the inicial value for the year 2003, that is, 2 (billions). So we have:

y = 28.8(t-2003) + 2

In the year 2017, we would have:

y = 28.8(2017-2003) + 2

y = 28.8*14 + 2

y =  405.2\ billion\ dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

the pattern shown in the miles driven goes up each time by 5000, stating it's going up by a constant of 5000. the cost goes up each time by 2000.

divide 5000/2000 which would give you 2.5

round it by two decimal places which gives you 2.50

The number of employees for a certain company has been decreasing each year by 7​%. If the company currently has 790 employees a
Vikki [24]

Answer:

The number of employees in 8 years  is  442

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Decreasing rate = 7%

Current number of employees = 790

To Find:

The number of employees after 8 years is this same rate continues =?

Solution:

Let the number of employees after 8 years be x

The current number of employees is:

790(1-0.07)^0=790---------------------------------(1)

since the decrase rate is 7% we use 0.07

So after 8 years , eq (1) can be rewritten as

790(1-0.07)^8= x

790(0.93)^8= x

790 \times 0.5595= x

x= 442.005

x= 442 (approx)
