500 : 1 expresses the ratio of sheets of paper to reams in simplest form ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • There are 4000 sheets of paper
  • There are 8 reams

We need to find the ratio between the sheets of paper to the reams in simplest form

∵ The number of the sheets is 4000

∵ The number of the reams is 8

→ sheet  :  ream

→ 4000  :  8

to simplify the ratio divide the two terms by the same number

∵ 4000 ÷ 2 = 2000 and 8 ÷ 2 = 4

∵ 2000 ÷ 2 = 1000 and 4 ÷ 2 = 2

∵ 1000 ÷ 2 = 500 and 2 ÷ 2 = 1

∴ 4000 and 8 can be divided by 8 to get the simplest form

   of the ratio

→ sheet        :  ream

→ 4000 ÷ 8  :  8 ÷ 8

→ 500           :  1

∴ The ratio of sheets to reams is 500 : 1

500 : 1 expresses the ratio of sheets of paper to reams in simplest form

If the equation y² - (K-<br>2y + 2k +1 = 0<br>with equal roots find the value of k​
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

y² - (K-  2)y + 2k +1 = 0

equal roots means D=0

D= b^2 - 4ac

a=1, b= (k-2), c= 2k+1

so,

(k-2)^2 - 4(1)(2k+1) = 0

=> k^2 +4 - 8k -4 = 0

=> k^2 -8k = 0

=> k^2 = 8k

=> k= 8k/k

=> k = 8

Therefore the answer is k= 8

Hope it helps........

Write a polynomial function of least degree with integral coefficients that has the given zeros.
densk [106]
The zeroes are
0, -5, 3 + i (and its conjugate)

The factors are
x (x + 5) (x - (3 + i)) (x - (3 - i))
Expanding...
(x² + 5x)((x - 3) - i) ((x - 3) + i)
(x² + 5x)((x - 3)² - i²)
(x² + 5x)(x² - 6x + 9 - (-1))
(x² + 5x)(x² - 6x + 10)
x⁴ - 6x³ + 10x² + 5x³ - 30x² + 50x
x⁴ - x³ - 20x² + 50x

How do you write 0.05 times 10=0.5 as division
yaroslaw [1]

0.05 * 10 =0.5

If you want an equivalent expression as division simply divide both sides by either 0.05 or 10 and it'll be dividing:

10 = 0.5/0.05 OR 0.05 = 0.5/10

In 2001 , chipper had 102 runs batted in. In 2008, Chipper had only 75 runs batted in. Calculate the percent change in runs batt
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The percent change in runs batted in from 2001 to 2008 is 26.47%

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of runs chipper batted in the year 2001  = 102 runs

The number of runs chipper batted in the year 2008  = 75 runs

Here, so the Change in the runs batted

= Runs Batted in year 2001 - Runs batted in the year 2008

= 102 runs - 75 runs  =  27 runs

Now, The percentage change in the run = = \frac{\textrm{Change in the batted run from 2001 to 2008}}{\textrm{Total number of batted runs in 2001}}  \times 100

= \frac{27}{102}  \times 100 = 26.47

or, The percentage change = 26.47%

Hence, the percent change in runs batted in from 2001 to 2008 is 26.47%
