Rewrite as decimals and compare them:

5/6 = 0.83

2/3 = 0.66

11/15 = 0.73

3/5 = 0.60

0.60 is the smallest decimal so 3/5 is the smallest fraction.

Seventeen members of Tim's family are going to an amusement park during the week of their family reunion. Adult tickets cost $34

baherus [9]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adults in Tim's family. Then (17 - x) is the number of children in Tim's family.

We have $34x + $31.5(17 - x) = $558.

$34x + $31.5(17 - x) = $558

$34x + $535.5 - $31.5x = $558

$2.5x = $22.5

x = 9

Hence the answer is c.

Simplify cos^2 A/1+sin A

Stels [109]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \frac{\cos^2(A)}{1+\sin(A)}=1-\sin(A)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to simplify:

$\displaystyle \frac{\cos^2(A)}{1+\sin(A)}$

Recall the Pythagorean Identity:

$\sin^2(A)+\cos^2(A)=1$

So:

$\cos^2(A)=1-\sin^2(A)$

Substitute:

$\displaystyle =\frac{1-\sin^2(A)}{1+\sin(A)}$

Factor. We can use the difference of two squares pattern:

$\displaystyle =\frac{\left(1-\sin(A))(1+\sin(A))}{1+\sin(A)}$

Cancel. Hence:

$\displaystyle \frac{\cos^2(A)}{1+\sin(A)}=1-\sin(A)$

The Bernards are trying to determine their babysitter's rates but are to embarrassed to just ask her. They were charged $20 for

Alina [70]

Answer:

A = 5.5t + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that the relationship between t and A is linear.

We have two points on a line: (2, 20) and (4, 31).

We now find the equation of the line.

A = mt + b

m = (31 - 20)/(4 - 2) = 11/2 = 5.5

20 = 5.5(2) + b

20 = 11 + b

b = 9

A = 5.5t + 9
