The right answer is Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given fraction is;

$\frac{28}{16}$

Both are multiples of 4, therefore

$\frac{28}{16}*\frac{4}{4}\\\\\frac{7}{4}$

A mixed number (fraction) is a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction of the same sign.

$\frac{7}{4}=1\frac{3}{4}$

$\frac{28}{16}$ as a mixed number in simplest form is $1\frac{3}{4}$ .

The right answer is Option A.

What is the probability of two dice being rolled and it being less than 7 and divisible by 3

Luden [163]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1, 1) (1, 2) (1, 3) (1, 4) (1, 5) (1, 6)

(2, 1) (2, 2) (2, 3) (2, 4) (2, 5) (2, 6)

(3, 1) (3, 2) (3, 3) (3, 4) (3, 5) (3, 6)

(4, 1) (4, 2) (4, 3) (4, 4) (4, 5) (4, 6)

(5, 1) (5, 2) (5, 3) (5, 4) (5, 5) (5, 6)

(6, 1) (6, 2) (6, 3) (6, 4) (6, 5) (6, 6)

The bold numbers are less than 7, and the underlined numbers are divisible by 3. The total number of numbers are 36.

The number of numbers that are both underlined and bold are 7.

The probability is 7/36.

A food company distributes its tomato soup in two cans of different sizes. For the larger can, both the diameter and the height

Lady_Fox [76]

Problem

A food company distributes its tomato soup in two cans of different sizes. For the larger can, both the diameter and the height have been increased by 15%.

By what percentage does the volume increase from the smaller can to the larger can? Round your answer to the nearest percent.

Solution

the volume of a cylinder is given by:

$V=\pi r^2h$

We know that the diameter=radius and the height are increased by 15% so then the new volume can be calculated on this way:

$V=\pi(1.15r)^2\cdot(1.15h)=1.15^2\cdot1.15\cdot\pi\cdot r^2\cdot h=1.52\pi r^2h$

And the new volume would increase about 52%

Ginny is studying a population of frogs. She determines that the population is decreasing at an average rate of 3% per year. Whe

svp [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is exponential, of the form

$y=a(b)^x$ where a is the initial amount and b is the growth/decay rate. If Ginny begins the study with 1200 frogs in the population, our a value is 1200.
