How do I use benchmark fractions

1 answer:

5 0

Compare fractions using a benchmark fraction. Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole.

In the diagram below, x is a whole number. what is the smallest possible value for x?

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The smallest possible value for x is $9\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The Triangle Inequality Theorem. states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side

$x+x>17\\2x>17\\x>8.5\ units$

The value of x must be greater than $8.5\ units$

If x must be a whole number

therefore

The smallest possible value for x is $9\ units$

Given a bag of 5 blue, 3 green, and 8 red marbles.. What is the probability of picking a blue

Anvisha [2.4K]

$b = 5, \: g = 3, \: r = 8$

$total = 5 + 3 + 8 = 16$

$p(b) = \frac{5}{16}$

$p(g |without \: replacement|) = \frac{3}{16 - 1} = \frac{3}{15} = \frac{1}{5} \\$

$p(b \: and \: g) = \frac{5}{16} \times \frac{1}{5} = \frac{1}{16}$

What is the slope of this line? (13,9)

STatiana [176]

Answer:

hope it helps...

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever the equation of a line is written in the form y = mx + b, it is called the slope-intercept form of the equation. The m is the slope of the line. And b is the b in the point that is the y-intercept (0, b). For example, for the equation y = 3x – 7, the slope is 3, and the y-intercept is (0, −7).
