Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the common denominator, in this case 48. Divide 48 by each denominator and multiply that answer to the numerator. You get (48/16)x5, (48/12)x5 and (48/8)x3. So, 3x5, 4x5, and 5x5. So, 15,20, and 25. Then put these over your new common denominator of 48. So you get 15/48, 20/48, and 25/48. Then you can just order them like this, 15/48,20/48,25/48.

Easiest way: Another way is just to type each into your calculator and put the decimals in order of greatest to smallest. So divide 5 by 16. 5 by 12. And 3 by 8.

5/16=.3125

5/12=.4166

3/8=.375.

Then put in order.

To find how high school students feel about hot lunches, Adam walks to the nearest high When a=6 and b=22, c=33. If c varies dir

Delvig [45]

Answer:The equation that models the solution will be

33 = 22k / 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The two types of variation involved in this problem are direct variation and inverse variation.

In direct variation, when one item changes in the positive or negative direction, the other item also changes in the positive or negative direction.

In inverse variation, when one item changes in the positive or negative direction, the other item also changes in the negative or positive direction.

From the information given,

c varies directly with b

If we introduce a direct proportionality constant, k, then,

c = kb

c also varies inversely with a

If we introduce an inverse proportionality constant, k, then,

c = k/b

Therefore, c = kb / a

When a=6 , b=22 and c=33.

The equation that models the solution will be

33 = 22k / 6

The average daily high temperature in Seattle is modeled by the function T = –15 cos(πm/6)+ 61, where T is the temperature in °F

Sliva [168]

Answer:

$m = 6$

Step-by-step explanation:

$T = -15cos(\frac{\pi m}{6}) +61$

$76 = -15cos(\frac{\pi m}{6}) +61$

$76-61 = -15cos(\frac{\pi m}{6})$

$15 = -15cos(\frac{\pi m}{6})$

$\frac{15}{-15} = cos(\frac{\pi m}{6})$

$-1 = cos(\frac{\pi m}{6})$

$cos^{-1}( -1) = \frac{\pi m}{6}$

$\pi = \frac{\pi m}{6}$

$6\pi = \pi m$

$m = 6$
