Complete Question

Mickey went down to the pet store and bought 11 2/3 pounds of bird seed. Mickey gave 5/7 of the bird seed to Daisy, and Daisy gave 4/5 of her bird seed to Frank. Frank wanted to know how many pounds of bird seed he received. Drag and drop the expressions below to create the original expression and solve the problem step by step.

Answer:

The number of pounds of bird seed that Frank received is 6 2/3 or 20/3 pounds of bird seed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Mickey went down to the pet store and bought 11 2/3 pounds of bird seed.

Initial number of bird seeds = 11 2/3 pounds

= 35/3 pounds of bird seeds

Step 2

Mickey gave 5/7 of the bird seed to Daisy.

The number of bird seed that Daisy received is calculated as:

5/7 of 11 2/3 pounds of bird seed

= 5/7 × 35/3

= 25/3 pounds of bird seed

= 8 1/3 pounds of bird seed

Hence,Daisy received, 8 1/3 pounds of bird seed.

Step 3

Daisy gave 4/5 of her bird seed to Frank. Frank wanted to know how many pounds of bird seed he received.

The number of pounds of bird seed that Frank received is calculated as:

4/5 of Daisy's bird seed

= 4/5 of 8 1/3 pounds of bird seed

= 4/5 × 25/3 pounds of bird seed

= 20/3 pounds of bird seed

= 6 2/3 pounds of bird seed

Therefore, the number of pounds of bird seed that Frank received is 6 2/3 pounds of bird seed

b) Drag and drop the expressions below to create the original expression and solve the problem step by step.

The expressions to get the final answer =

I) (11 2/3 × 5/7) . 4/5

II) (35/3 × 5/7 ) . 4/5

III) 25/3 . 4/5

IV) 20/3

There is a bag with only red marbles and blue marbles. The probability of randomly choosing a red marble is 2 9 . There are 63 m
Tatiana [17]

The main idea is the number of marbles and the denominator of the probability. All you have to do is multiply the fraction by a fraction which is equal to 1 which makes the denominator equal to 63. We know 63 is a multiple of 9. 9 goes 7 times in 63 so we multiple the fraction \frac{2}{9} with \frac{7}{7} which gives, \frac{2 * 7}{9 * 7} which when evaluated gives \frac{14}{63} and the numerator is the number of red marbles in the bag. So there are 14 red marbles in the bag :D

A giraffe can run 32 miles per hour. What is the speed in feet per second? (1 mile = 5280 ft)
velikii [3]

Set up your conversion using dimensional analysis. That's just a fancy way of saying set up your values so you cancel what you don't need and keep what you do. If we want to convert miles per hour to feet per second, we need to convert the miles to feet using the fact that there are 5280 feet in 1 mile, and then convert the hours to seconds using the fact that there are 3600 seconds in an hour. Your set up will look like this (it's all about setting up the fractions correctly): \frac{32miles}{hour}*\frac{5280feet}{1mile}*\frac{1hour}{3600seconds}. If you look at that closely, you can see the there is a label of miles on the top in the first fraction and on the bottom in the second fraction. Those cancel each other out by reducing. Then in the bottom of the first fraction there is hours and in the top of the last fraction there is hours. Those cancel out. From top to bottom or bottom to top you can cancel like labels. This leaves us with feet in the top and seconds in the bottom. Now it's a matter of doing the math. You multiply straight across the top and straight across the bottom. \frac{168960feet}{3600seconds}. Simplifying you get 46.933 feet per second.

Solve for x 4.5 (8 - x) + 36 = 102 - 2.5 (3x + 24)
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

expand

simplify 36 - 4.5x + 36 to -4.5x + 72

simplify 102 - 7.5x - 60 to -7.5x + 42

add 7.5x to both sides

simplify -4.5x + 72 + 7.5x to 3x + 72

subtract 72 from both sides

simplify 42 - 72 to -30

divide both sides by 3

simplify 30/3 to 10

Answer: x = -10

Sin theta+costheta/sintheta -costheta+sintheta-costheta/sintheta+costheta=2sec2/tan2 theta -1
sleet_krkn [62]

\dfrac{sin\theta + cos\theta}{sin\theta-cos\theta}+\dfrac{sin\theta-cos\theta}{sin\theta+cos\theta}=\dfrac{2sec^2\theta}{tan^2\theta-1}

From Left side:

\dfrac{sin\theta + cos\theta}{sin\theta-cos\theta}\bigg(\dfrac{sin\theta+cos\theta}{sin\theta+cos\theta}\bigg)+\dfrac{sin\theta-cos\theta}{sin\theta+cos\theta}\bigg(\dfrac{sin\theta-cos\theta}{sin\theta-cos\theta}\bigg)

\dfrac{sin^2\theta+2cos\thetasin\theta+cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}+\dfrac{sin^2\theta-2cos\thetasin\theta+cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}

NOTE: sin²θ + cos²θ = 1

\dfrac{1 + 2cos\theta sin\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}+\dfrac{1-2cos\theta sin\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}

\dfrac{1 + 2cos\theta sin\theta+1-2cos\theta sin\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}

\dfrac{2}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}

\dfrac{2}{\bigg(sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta\bigg)\bigg(\dfrac{cos^2\theta}{cos^2\theta}\bigg)}

\dfrac{2sec^2\theta}{\dfrac{sin^2\theta}{cos^2\theta}-\dfrac{cos^2\theta}{cos^2\theta}}

\dfrac{2sec^2\theta}{tan^2\theta-1}

Left side = Right side <em>so proof is complete</em>
