<h2><u>PLEASE MARK BRAINLIEST! c:</u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A birthday cake is cut into 24 pieces --> this fraction will be out of 24 before it is simplified and turned into a percent.
  • 6 pieces have been eaten, so 6 will be subtracted from 24 [24 - 6], to find the number of pieces eaten

24 - 6 = 18 pieces of cake eaten

So that means 18 out of 24 [ \frac{18}{24} ] slices of cake were eaten.

\frac{18}{24} simplifies to \frac{3}{4}

What is \frac{3}{4} as a percent?

\frac{3}{4} = 75%

<u>So 75% of the cake was eaten. </u>

<h3>I hope this helps!</h3>

Answer:

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

so there's 24 pieces and 6 are left so 18 were eaten which means

\frac{18}{24}

is you percentage because 18 divided by 24 is .75 then multiply by 100 to change it to percent so .75 times 100 is 75%

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = 1/3x + 4 and passes through the point (6, 5)?
Gnom [1K]
--------------------------------------------------
Find Slope
--------------------------------------------------
y = -1/3 x + 4                                      
Slope = -1/3                                       
Slope of the parallel line = -1/3          


--------------------------------------------------
Insert slope into y = mx + c
--------------------------------------------------
y = -1/3 x + c                                  

--------------------------------------------------
Find y-intercept
--------------------------------------------------
y = -1/3 x + c                                   
at point (6, 5)
5 = -1/3 (6) + c                                 
5 = - 2 + c                                         
c = 5 + 2                                         
c = 7

--------------------------------------------------
Insert y-intercept into y = -1/3x + c
--------------------------------------------------
y = -1/3 x + 7 

--------------------------------------------------
Answer: y = -1/3 x + 7 (Answer B)

Y for a daily lottery, a person selects a three-digit number. if the person plays for $1, she can win $500. find the expectation
Elena-2011 [213]
The expected value of the first game is -$0.50 and of the second game is -$0.52.

There are 10³ possible numbers for the lottery, and only 1 of them will match in the correct order; this gives a probability of 1/1000.  To find the expected value, we multiply this by the winnings (499 after the $1 cost); we also multiply the probability of losing (999/1000) by the amount lost (-1):
1/1000(499)+999/1000(-1)
499/1000 - 999/1000 = -500/1000 = -0.50

For the second game, since the number is "boxed", there are 3! ways to get the correct digits; this gives a probability of 6/1000.  Multiply this by the winnings, 79 (after the $1 cost); multiply the probability of losing (994/1000) by the loss (-1):
6/1000(79) + 994/1000(-1) = 474/1000 - 994/1000 = -520/1000= -0.52
