Answer:

Yes, the total price is proportional to the pounds of oranges she purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of oranges is $0.78 per pound.

So, the price $0.78 corresponds to one pound, in a way, that is called <em>direct proportionality.</em>

This means that the price will increase or decrease in a <em>constant ratio</em>, depending on the amount of pounds purchased.

For example:

If she buys 1 pound of oranges she will pay $0.78. Ratio is 0.78 (0.78/1)

If she buys 2 pounds of oranges she will pay $1.56. Ratio is 0.78 (1.56/2)

If she buys 2.5 pounds of oranges she will pay $1.95. Ratio is 0.78 (1.95/2.5)

If she buys 3 pounds of oranges she will pay $2.34. Ratio is 0.78(2.34/3)

We can see that ratio is constant, then we can say that <em>the total price she pays is proportional to the pounds of oranged purchased.</em>

Help me please this is very important to me for rbainlist and explain
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting one even and one odd is the sum of probability of getting even and of getting odd and even. Since there are 3 even or odd on each die out of six numbers you have

P(EO)(3/6)(3/6)=1/4 and P(OE)=(3/6)(3/6)=1/4 so 1/4+1/4= 1/2

or you can find the probability of getting two odds or two evens and subtract that from 1

P(EE)=(3/6)(3/6)=1/4, P(OO)=(3/6)(3/6)=1/4

P(EO)=1-1/4-1/4=1/2

Solve the equation showing each inverse operation step:
valina [46]

Answer:

4 2/7 - 6/7 = 24/

7

= 3 3/

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion a mixed number 4 2/

7

to a improper fraction: 4 2/7 = 4 2/

7

= 4 · 7 + 2/

7

= 28 + 2/

7

= 30/

7

To find a new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 4 by the denominator 7. Whole number 4 equally 4 * 7/

7

= 28/

7

b) Add the answer from previous step 28 to the numerator 2. New numerator is 28 + 2 = 30

c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 30) over the denominator 7.

Four and two sevenths is thirty sevenths

Subtract: 30/

7

- 6/

7

= 30 - 6/

7

= 24/

7

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(7, 7) = 7. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 7 × 7 = 49. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - thirty sevenths minus six sevenths = twenty-four sevenths.
