Answer: The space given up by the students is 1/4 of the total space.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • Tanks: 1/10
  • Games: 4/10
  • Student exhibits: 5/10  

<em> Students must give up half of the exhibit space to the other school.</em> So, we have to divide 5/10 by 2.

5/10 ÷ 2/1 = (5x1 ) / (10 x2 ) = 5 /20

Simplified (by 5) = 1 /4  

The space given up by the students is 1/4 of the total space.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Tiffany has eaten 1/4 of her candy bar.William has eaten 2/8 of his candy bar.Who has eaten the greater amount? Explain your ans
zalisa [80]
Neither one has eaten a greater amount, because 1/4 and 2/8 are equal to each other. You know this because when you divide the numerator and the denominator of 2/8 by 2, you get 1/4, which is the exact same thing. The only way the amounts would vary is if the size of one candy bar is greater than the other.

Given:
Function y = 119.67(0.61)x

x = week 3.

F(3) = 119.67(0.61)(3)
F(3) = 119.67*1.83
F(3) = 218.9961

x = week 5

F(5) = 119.67(0.61)(5)
F(5) = 119.67 * 3.05
F(5) = 364.9935
