Answer:

  • h = 5/2
  • p = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

c) Multiply by the denominator under the variable, then simplify.

\dfrac{10}{8}=\dfrac{h}{2}\\\\\dfrac{2\cdot 10}{8}=h\\\\\dfrac{5}{2}=h

__

d) Simple observation shows you the denominator of each fraction is half the numerator, so p = 6.

If you want to solve this algebraically, you can multiply by p and divide by the value on the left of the equal sign (2).

\dfrac{4}{2}=\dfrac{12}{p}\\\\\dfrac{p}{2}\cdot\dfrac{4}{2}=\dfrac{p}{2}\cdot\dfrac{12}{p}\\\\p=6

__

For an "upside down" proportion such as this (with the variable in the denominator), you can rewrite it by inverting both fractions:

  \dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac{p}{12}

Now, solve as for (c), by multiplying by the denominator under the variable:

  \dfrac{12\cdot 2}{4}=p=6

_____

<em>Comment on this last solution method</em>

In general, you can use equation solving methods to solve inequalities. However, taking a reciprocal is an order-reversing process:

  3 > 2

  1/3 < 1/2

So, if you want to solve an inequality with the variable in the denominator of a proportion, be careful to observe any order-changing behavior of your solution method.

Answer:

b=2.5

p=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the fraction and simplify it. So 10/8 would be 5/4

You multiply the 2 by 2, giving you h/4

So now you have 5/4=h/4

h=5 but now you have to divide both by 2 again so it can go back to the original fraction.

5÷2=2.5 and 4÷2=2

Second Problem! 4/2 is equal to 2/1

You can also multiply 4 by 3 to get the numerator as 12. Multiply the 4 by 3 and the 2 by 3

Now you have 12/6= 12/p

So p is 6

Let f(x)= 100 / −10+ e^ −0.1x . What is f(−6) ?
bija089 [108]

The value of f(-6) is -12.2

Explanation:

Given that the function f(x)=\frac{100}{-10+e^{-0.1\left(x\right)}}

We need to determine the value of f(-6)

The value of f(-6) can be determined by substituting the value for x=-6 in the function and simplify the function.

Hence, let us substitute x=-6 in the function, we get,

f(-6)=\frac{100}{-10+e^{-0.1\left(-6\right)}}

Let us apply the rule -\left(-a\right)=a , we get,

f(-6)=\frac{100}{-10+e^{0.1\left(6\right)}}

Multiplying the numbers, we get,

f(-6)=\frac{100}{-10+e^{0.6}}

The value of e^{0.6}=1.822

Substituting the value of e^{0.6}=1.822 , we get,

f(-6)=\frac{100}{-10+1.822}

Subtracting the denominator, we have,

f(-6)=\frac{100}{-8.178}

Dividing, we have,

f(-6)=-12.228

Rounding off to the nearest tenth, we have,

f(-6)=-12.2

Thus, the value of f(-6) is -12.2

Mr. Ramsey just finished bathing his kids, and now he is draining the tub. The tub contains 32 gallons of water and is draining
KIM [24]
The answer would be 11 gallons.

The tub starts with 32 gallons. Every minute it loses 3 gallons.

So after 1 minute it has lost 3 gallons. For example:
32-3= 29 Meaning that after 1 minute the tub has 29 gallons left.

Now you have to remember that the tub is draining for 7 minutes. So it is losing 3 gallons 7 times, because it loses 3 gallons each minute and there are 7 minutes.

We can use multiplication to find how many gallons the tub loses after 7 minutes. This sign “X” basically means “groups of”. We have 7 groups of 3, or
7 X 3

This is the same as saying we have 3, 7 times. Written like this:

3+3 +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 = 21

So after 7 minutes the tub has lost 21 gallons.

Now we take the original number of gallons and take away what was lost:

32-21=11

So there are 11 gallons left after 7 minutes.

Please let me know if you need any further explanation. Hope this helped.
