Answer:

7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparison of these three fractions is easier if you convert them so that all have the same denominator.

"Closer to 1/2 than to 1" implies that the fraction chosen lies between 1/2 and 3/4, that is, between 0.500 and 0.750.

7/8 = 0.875 must be rejected.  It does not satisfy this criterion.  0.875 is NOT closer to 1/2 than it is to 1.

10/12 = 0.833 must be rejected for the same reason.

12/14 = 6/7 must be rejected for the same reason

7/10 = 0.700 satisfies the criterion (it lies closer to 1/2 than it does to 1).

Consider parallelogram ABCD. Which of the following transformations will change the perimeter of the parallelogram?
jeka57 [31]

In geometry, transformation involves changing the position and/or size of a shape.

<em>The transformation that will change the size of ABCD is dilation.</em>

There are four transformations in geometry:

  • Translation
  • Reflection
  • Rotation
  • Dilation

Of all types of transformation, dilation will change the size of the shape,

The new shape will either be enlarged or reduced

<em>Either ways, the size of the shape will be altered.</em>

<em>When the size is altered, the perimeter will not remain the same.</em>

<em />

Hence. dilation will change the perimeter of ABCD.

mary purchased 3 1/2 pounds of bananas. If the loaf of banana bread requires 3/4 pounds of bananas, how many loaves of banana br
nikklg [1K]
For this one a simple way that you can think of it is that 1 pound of banana is equivalent to 100, 3/4 pounds of banana is 75, 1/2 pounds of banana is 50, etc. 

3 1/2 pounds of banana = 350 

3/4 pounds of banana = 75 

If i want to find out how many loafs of banana bread I can make if ONE loaf requires 3/4 pounds of banana, and i have 3 1/2 pounds of banana then I divide:

350 / 75 = 4.66 

So, with 3 1/2 pounds of bananas you can successfully create 4 loafs of banana bread. the remaining .66 is not enough banana to make another loaf.

Warren started making oatmeal cookies at 3:30 pm.It took him 30 minutes to make the dough and 2 hours to bake all of the cookies
ladessa [460]
6PM I believe because 3:30 + 30 min = 4:00 + 2 hr (2:00) = 6:00!

Hope this helped and sorry if it’s incorrect!
