You can read fractions as one number divided by another. So 1/6 is equivalent to 1 divided by 6. It is then selfevident that the larger the denominator the smaller the number. If you have one cake and divide it between 3, 6 or eight people, three people will get a larger slice than 6 people sharing the same cake. And 6 people will get a larger slice than 8 people dividing the same cake.

1/6 is greater because it is more that 1/8 and it is less then 1/3 because 1/3 is 1/3 of a number like .33repeating would be 1/3 1/8 is less than what 1/6 would be

Which equation could have been used to create this graph?
Mekhanik [1.2K]
B.) y=3x
The slope of a given line is defined by <em>y=mx+b</em>, where b is the y-intercept (the point at which the line crosses the y-axis) and m is the slope (rise/run). We see that the y-intercept is 0 (because the line hits the y-axis at 0) and the slope is 3 (rise=3 and run=1, so 3/1=3).

How many ounces of a 15​% alcohol solution must be mixed with 4 ounces of a 20​% alcohol solution to make a 17​% alcohol​ soluti
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

6 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of ounces of the 15% alcohol solution needed to be mixed with the 4 ounces of 20% alcohol solution to obtain the 17% alcohol solution.

After converting the percentages to their decimal equivalents, set up the necessary equation as follows:

0.15x+0.20(4) = (x+4)(0.17) Simplify and solve for x.

0.15x+0.8 = 0.17x+0.68 Subtract 0.15x from both sides.

0.8 = 0.02x+0.68 Now subtract 0.68 from both sides.

0.12 = 0.02x Finally, divide both sides by 0.02

x = 6

You need to mix 6 ounces of 15% alcohol solution with 4 ounces of 20% alcohol solution to obtain 10 (x+4)ounces of 17% alcohol solution.
