Answer: 7/12

Find the total amount of pizza eaten.

Kesh = 2 slices

Jorge = 3 slices

Total eaten: 5/12

Subtract 5/12 from 12/12.

12/12 - 5/12 = 7/12

Answer = 7/12

Hope this answer helped!

Total number of slices = 12

No. of slices eaten by Kesh = 2

No. of slices eaten by Jorge = 3

No. of slices left

= Total number of slices - (No. of slices eaten by Kesh + No. of slices eaten by Jorge)

= 12 - (2 + 3)

= 12 - 5

= 7

Fraction of the pizza left

= No. of slices left/Total number of slices

= 7/12

For the following problem, assume that all given angles are in simplest form, so that if A is in QIV you may assume that 270° &l

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that angle A is in IV quadrant

So A/2 would be in II quadrant.

sin A = -1/3

cos A = $\sqrt{1-sin^2 A} =\frac{2\sqrt{2} }{3}$

(cos A is positive since in IV quadrant)

Using this we can find cos A/2

$cosA = 2cos^2 \frac{A}{2} -1\\Or cos \frac{A}{2} =-\sqrt{\frac{1+cosA}{2} } =-\sqrt{\frac{3+2\sqrt{2} }{6} }$

Given the equation 5x − 4 = –2(3x + 2), solve for the variable. Explain each step and justify your process.

blagie [28]

A.
$5x-4=-2(3x+2) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{expand the bracket} \\
5x-4=-2 \times 3x-2 \times 2 \\
5x-4=-6x-4 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{add 6x to both sides} \\
11x-4=-4 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{add 4 to both sides} \\
11x=0 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{divide both sides by 11} \\
x=0$

B.
$3(2x-4)=5x-1 \\
6x-12=5x-1 \\
\boxed{11x-12=-1} \Leftarrow \hbox{the first mistake} \\
11x=11 \\
\boxed{x=11} \Leftarrow \hbox{the second mistake}$

Megan's solution isn't correct.
The first mistake: she subtracted 5x from the right-hand side of the equation, but added 5x to the left-hand side.
The second mistake: she divided the right-hand side of the equation by 11, but didn't divide the left-hand side.

The correct solution:
$3(2x-4)=5x-1 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{expand the bracket} \\
3 \times 2x+3 \times (-4)=5x-1 \\ 6x-12=5x-1 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{subtract 5x from both sides} \\
x-12=-1 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\hbox{add 12 to both sides} \\
x=11$

Yo what's 0.994 rounded to the nearest tenth

krek1111 [17]

Answer:To round 0.994 to the nearest tenth consider the hundredths’ value of 0.994, which is 9 and equal or more than 5. Therefore, the tenths value of 0.994 increases by 1 to 0.

0.994 rounded to the nearest tenth = 1.0

One year Terry had the lowest ERA (earned-run average, mean number of runs yielded per nine innings pitched) of any male pitch

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Their respective z-scores are:

Thomas : -2.15279

Karla : -1.40221

Which player had the better year relative to their peers, Terry or Karla ?

Terry had a better year because he had a lower Era and he was a better pitcher.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ,

where x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

any male pitcher at his school,

For Thomas:

z = (x-μ)/σ

x = 2.85 μ = 4.893 σ = 0.949.

z = 2.85 - 4.893/0.949

z = -2.15279

For Karla

z = (x-μ)/σ

x = 2.95 μ = 4.348 σ = 0.997.

z = (2.95 - 4.348) /0

z = -1.40221

Their respective z-scores are:

Thomas : -2.15279

Karla : -1.40221

Which player had the better year relative to their peers, Terry or Karla ? (Note: In general, the lower the ERA, the better the pitcher.)

Terry had a better year because he had a lower Era and he was a better pitcher.
