A leaky pool loses 2 and one-fourth inches of water each day. Jermaine and Mildred are asked to determine the change in the amou

nt of water in the pool over 5 days. Jermaine’s Solution Mildred’s Solution 5 (Negative 2 and one-fourth) = 5 (negative 2 minus one-fourth) = negative 10 minus one-fourth = negative 10 and one-fourth 5 (Negative 2 and one-fourth) = 5 (negative 2 minus one-fourth) = negative 10 minus StartFraction 5 over 4 EndFraction = negative 11 and one-fourth Which describes the reasoning used to determine whose solution is correct? Jermaine is correct because Negative 10 minus one-fourth equals Negative 10 and one-fourth Jermaine is correct because he distributed 5 correctly. Mildred is correct because she multiplied 5 by –2 but not by Negative one-fourth. Mildred is correct because she distributed 5 correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

We cannot tell exactly which solution goes with which student, but we believe you are saying ...

Mildred’s Solution:

  5 (Negative 2 and one-fourth) = 5 (negative 2 minus one-fourth)

  = negative 10 minus StartFraction 5 over 4 EndFraction

  = negative 11 and one-fourth

This solution describes the correct distribution of 5. Whoever it belongs to gave the correct solution.

Find the number that makes the ratio equivalent to 1:6.<br> 9:__
Anarel [89]
Answer: 54

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

The first ratio is 1:6. The jump from 1 to 6 has us multiplying the 1 by 6 to get 6. 
1*6 = 6
So we follow the same rule of "multiply by 6" to go from 9 to 54 (9*6 = 54)

Or you can use a proportion to get
1/6 = 9/x
1*x = 6*9 ... cross multiply
x = 54
and we get the same answer
