6 0

Answer:

28/5 or 5  3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to make the mixed number into an improper fraction, like this:

3 1/2 turns into 7/2

Next you will need to do the reciprocal of division and inverse operation:

7/2 times 8/5

Then solve it:

7/2 * 8/5 = 56/10

Last simplify:

28/5

or

5  3/5

A local sorority sold hot dogs and bratwursts at the spring fling picnics. The first day they sold 8 dozen hot dogs and 13 dozen
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

1 hot dog costs $0.75

1 bratwurst costs $1.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the price per dozen of hot dogs and bratwursts respectively.

The first day they sold 8 dozen hot dogs and 13 dozen bratwursts for ​$282.60

8x + 13y = 282.60

The second day they sold 10 dozen hot dogs and 15 dozen bratwursts for a total of ​$333.00

10x + 15y = 333

and we have the linear system

<em>8x + 13y = 282.60 </em>

<em>10x + 15y = 333 </em>

which can be written in matrix form as

\bf \left(\begin{array}{cc}8&13\\10&15\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c}x\\ y\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{c}282.60\\333\end{array}\right)

The solution would be given by

\bf \left(\begin{array}{c}x\\ y\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{cc}8&13\\10&15\end{array}\right)^{-1}\left(\begin{array}{c}282.60\\333\end{array}\right)

We have  

\bf \left(\begin{array}{cc}8&13\\10&15\end{array}\right)^{-1}=\left(\begin{array}{cc}-3/2&13/10\\1&-4/5\end{array}\right)

hence

\bf \left(\begin{array}{c}x\\ y\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{cc}-3/2&13/10\\1&-4/5\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c}282.60\\333\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{c}9\\ 16.2\end{array}\right)

Now,

if a dozen hot dogs cost $9, 1 hot dog costs 9/12 = $0.75

if a dozen bratwursts cost $16.2, 1 bratwurst costs 16.2/12 = $1.35

Samantha has a AA battery that is 51mm long. About how many centimeters long is it
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

5.1 cm

. . . . . .

All we have to do is convert our 51mm to centimeters.

We divide the length value by 10 to get our centimeters.

51 divided by 10 = 5.1

All we have to do is move our "invisible decimal"

In my way, every whole number has an invisible decimal at it's end.

For ex: '60.'

We can get into exponents. 10 is 10¹, any exponent is the number of zeros at the end of a number may have. Ex: '10² = 100'

We can move our decimal to the left since we are dividing. The amount of exponent numbers are the amount you move it, multiplying and dividing are different things with that.

Let's get back on topic.

Moving our decimal to the left with dividing is 5.1 since 10¹ has a "1" as it's exponent, making us move it "1" to the left.

Multiplying is going the right way.

I hope this helps.
