Answer:

(a) \frac{4}{5} > \frac{1}{2}

(b) \frac{1}{3} < \frac{1}{2}

(c) Suki rode her bike a longer distance than Clarie

Step-by-step explanation:

Suki's distance is 4/5 miles

Now compare with bechmark 1/2

compare \frac{4}{5} and \frac{1}{2}

To compare , we make the denominators same

\frac{4*2}{5*2} ----- \frac{1*5}{2*5}

\frac{8}{10} ----- \frac{5}{10}

8/10 is greater than 5/10

\frac{8}{10} > \frac{5}{10}

Clarie distance is 1/3 miles

Now compare with bechmark 1/2

compare \frac{1}{3} and \frac{1}{2}

To compare , we make the denominators same

\frac{1*2}{3*2} ----- \frac{1*3}{2*3}

\frac{2}{6} ----- \frac{3}{6}

2/6 is less than 3/6

\frac{2}{6} < \frac{3}{6}

Now we compare Suki's distance with Clarie

compare \frac{4}{5} and \frac{1}{3}

Make the denominators same

\frac{4*3}{5*3} and \frac{1*5}{3*5}

\frac{12}{15} and \frac{5}{15}

\frac{12}{15} > \frac{5}{15}

Suki rode her bike a longer distance than Clarie

Fantom [35]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression:

(5 * x³) / x² ; for x = 2

Simplifying (5 * x³) / x²

5 * x^(3-2)

5 * x^1

= 5x

For x = 2

5x = 5*2 = 10

kakasveta [241]

Based on the 5 trials, 1 carton of eggs is expected to contain at least one broken egg, on average

<h3>How to determine the number of cartons</h3>

From the question, we understand that only one of the first 10 double-digit numbers is between 01 and 08

This means that:

The average carton or the expected value of eggs in the simulation is 1

Hence, 1 carton of eggs is expected to contain at least one broken egg, on average

Find the perimeter of OQR if OQ=6.5.<br> A.<br> 6.1<br> B.<br> 12.2<br> C.<br> 13<br> D.<br> 19.1
Svetach [21]

ANSWER


The correct answer is 19.1


EXPLANATION


The perimeter of triangle OQR is the sum of the distance around the triangle.



Thus,


Perimeter=|OQ|+|OR|+|RQ|



We can observe that two of the angles are equal.



The angles that are equal measures 62° each.



Therefore triangle OQR is an isosceles triangle. This means that



|OQ|=6.5=|OR|



Hence,



Perimeter=6.5+6.5+6.1




Perimeter=19.1 units.
