2/9 is less than 2/5 because since the denominator is larger, the pieces are smaller. (Numerator)
NISA [10]3 years ago

Answer: D. 2/9 - the reason I knew this was smaller was because the numerator(number in the top part of the fraction) stayed the same, but the denominator increased meaning we are dividing the same amount by a larger number of divisions. This means that it will be a smaller fraction.  


Why do none of the other answer choices fit? Well, either the numerator increased or both the numerator and denominator increased by a margin that made the final fraction larger than the original 2/5.

Any questions?

Can anybody help out this math question it’s about graph please
malfutka [58]

Neither one of the slopes are going to be minus. It means you are travelling backwards in time, which is wonderful if you are a sci-fi fan, but not so good if you are Sharon. A and D has Sharon going from 70 to 0. That can't be happening so both are wrong.


Now you have to decide between B and C. The intersection point has Sharon going upwards until she is 20. She started out at 70. The graph has John starting at 70. That's not right.


So we've eliminated A,D and now C.


The answer must be B. They meet when Sharon is 90 and John is about 22.5 which is what it should be.

A van travels from Town A to Town B. It uses 1 gallon of gas for every 24 miles traveled. A) How many gallons of gas does the va
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

A)  \frac{x}{8} gallons

B)  Distance between Town A and Town B is 48y  miles


Step-by-step explanation:

A)

We know, number of gallons = \frac{DistanceTravelled}{MilesPerGallon}

if miles per gallon (mpg) is given as 24 & total distance travelled is 3x miles, then, using formula we have:

Number of Gallons = \frac{DistanceTravelled}{MilesPerGallon}=\frac{3x}{24}=\frac{x}{8}


B)

Now, given is number of gallons = 2y & we know mpg is 24; <em>so what is the distance?</em>

We use the same formula and solve for distance (let distance between A and B be "D"):

NumberOfGallons=\frac{DistanceTravelled}{MilesPerGallon}\\2y=\frac{D}{24}\\D=2y*24\\D=48y
