Answer:

22/63

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep, change, and flip is how you divide fractions. You change divide to multiply and then turn 2 5/8 into an improper fraction. And you will get 21/8. Next, flip that number to the reciprocal, which is 8/21. Multiply 8/21 with 11/12 to get 22/63.

At the beginning of the day the stock market goes down 4014 40 1 4 points and stays at this level for most of the day. At the en

Stels [109]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we are expected to solve for the percentage change, given the opening point and the closing point

given that the low is 4014

and the high is 9012

the formula to calculate the percentage change is given as

%change= (high-low)/low*100

substituting our given data we have

%change= (9012-4014)/4014*100

%change= (4998)/4014*100

%change= (1.2451)*100

%change= 124.51%

The total change in the stock market from the beginning of the day to the end of the day is 124.51%

A rectangular poster is to contain 722 square inches of print. the margins at the top and bottom of the poster are to be 2 inche

Delvig [45]

Let
x ----------> the height of the whole poster
<span>y ----------> the </span>width<span> of the whole poster
</span>
We need to minimize the area A=x*y

we know that
(x-4)*(y-2)=722
(y-2)=722/(x-4)
(y)=[722/(x-4)]+2

so
A(x)=x*y--------->A(x)=x*{[722/(x-4)]+2}
Need to minimize this function over x > 4

find the derivative------> A1 (x)
A1(x)=2*[8x²-8x-1428]/[(x-4)²]

for A1(x)=0
8x²-8x-1428=0
using a graph tool
gives x=13.87 in

(y)=[722/(x-4)]+2

y=[2x+714]/[x-4]-----> y=[2*13.87+714]/[13.87-4]-----> y=75.15 in

the answer is
<span>the dimensions of the poster will be
</span>the height of the whole poster is 13.87 in
the width of the whole poster is 75.15 in

7.60. When Paul crossed the finish line of a 60-meter race, he was ahead of Robert by 10 meters and ahead of Sam by 20 meters. S

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The number of meters Robert will beat Sam is 12 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

When Paul crossed the finish line of a 60-meter race, he was ahead of Robert by 10 meters and ahead of Sam by 20 meters. Suppose Robert and Sam continue to race to the finish line without changing their rates of speed.

Find:

the number of meters by which Robert will beat Sam

Step 1 of 1

When Paul finishes, Robert has run 60-10=50 meters and Sam has run 60-20=40 meters.

Therefore, when Robert and Sam run for the same amount of time, Sam covers $\frac{40}{50}=\frac{4}{5}$ of the distance that Robert covers. So, while Robert runs the final 10 meters of the race, Sam runs $\frac{4}{5} \cdot 10=8$ meters.
