\frac{2}{3} =0.666666... = 0.67

Chef A Length >=< Chef B Length
503 \frac{2}{3} >=< 503.66
503.67 = 503.67

If you convert \frac{2}{3} into a decimal and round it, it shows that both the chefs have the the same length of pasta.

Lenght spaghetti chef a:
503 2/3ft= (503*3+2)/3=1511/3 =503,(6)
lenght spaghetti chef b:
503,66

Because 503,(6)>503,66
=> lenght spaghetti chef a > lenght spaghetti chef b
So, the winner must be chef a, but, if 503.66 rounds to 503.7, also 503(6) rounds to 503.7, and in this case
lenght spaghetti chef a= lenght spaghetti chef b
So, <span>chef a should protest the judges' decision, because his </span>lenght spaghetti is ≥ lenght spaghetti chef b.

At the Science Museum, there is an exhibition with 150 displays about energy.
tatuchka [14]
<span>1/5
       
This is a matter of elimination. So let's figure out how many of each display there is. 30% of 150 = 0.30 * 150 = 45 displays about electricity. 2/5 * 150 = 0.40 * 150 = 60 displays about renewable energy 1/10 * 150 = 150/10 = 15 displays about gas. The rest of the displays are about nuclear power. So 150 - 45 - 60 - 15 = 30 displays about nuclear power. Since we want a fraction, we get 30/150 But 30/150 isn't in it's simplest form. The largest number that will evenly divide both 30 and 150 is 30. So divide both the numerator and denominator by 30 (30/30)/(150/30) = 1/5 So 1/5 of the displays are about nuclear power.</span>

2(x + 4) - 3(x - 5) Rewrite the expression using properties.
sergij07 [2.7K]

First, distribute 2 to x and 4, and -3 to x and -5 (distributive property)

2(x + 4) = 2x + 8

-3(x - 5) = -3x + 15

2x + 8 - 3x + 15

Next, combine like terms

2x - 3x = -x

8 + 15 = 23

-x + 23 is your answer

hope this helps
