Well, the first thing you would do is find like denominators for each fraction.

Since the smallest common term between the two is 40, that will be your denominator for each. Then you would multiply the numerator by the number your denominator was multiplied to get to 40. So, you would end up with 16/40 because 5*8=40 and 2*8=16 and 5/40 because 8*5=40 and 1*5=5.

After that, you would just subtract them.

16/40 - 5/40 = 11/40 and as a decimal that is 0.275. So, Joe has eaten 0.275 more pizza than Jane.

Hope this helps! :)

After triangle ACE is dilated by a factor of 6, it has an area of 180 square inches. What was its area before dilation?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The area of triangle ACE before dilation is:  30 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when an object is dilated by a scale factor, it gets reduced, stretched, or remains the same, depending upon the value of the scale factor.

  • If the scale factor > 1, the image is enlarged
  • If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, it gets shrunk
  • If the scale factor = 1, the object and the image are congruent

The length of the image can be determined by multiplying the length of the original point by a certain scale factor.

Given that after triangle ACE is dilated by a factor of 6, it has an area of 180 square inches.

Thus, it means the dilated area is 6 times the area before dilation.

Let x be the pre-dilation area

As the dilated area is 6 times the area before dilation, so

6x = 180

divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 180/6

x = 30 square inches.

Therefore, the area of triangle ACE before dilation is:  30 square inches

The graph shows the solution to a system of inequalities:
tangare [24]

Answer:

Option A. 4x+3y\leq 12 and x\geq 0

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The solution of the first inequality is the shaded area below the solid line 4x+3y=12

The solid line passes through the points (0,4) and (3,0) (the y and x intercepts)

therefore

The first inequality is

4x+3y\leq 12

The solution of the second inequality is the shaded area to the right of the solid line x=0

therefore

The second inequality is

x\geq 0

A bank loaned out 16,000 ​$​, part of it at the rate of 6% per year and the rest at 14% per year. If the interest received in on
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

This question requires a comparison between two different variables 6% and 16% values.  If we let x=$ loaned on 6% loans and y=$ loaned on 16% loans, then we can relate two equations.

0.06x + 0.16y = $1500  --> referencing the interest earned from each percentage loaned.

x + y = $16000  --> referencing the total amount of money loaned out.

Rearrange either equation and substitute for a value in the other equation or use elimination to determine each individual variable.

Step-by-step explanation:
