15 4/10....so u know it is either gonna round to 15 or 16. It all depends on ur fraction. If 4/10 is larger or equal to 1/2, ur number rounds to 16....but if 4/10 is less then 1/2, ur answer stays 15.

4/10 reduces to 2/5.....little clue...**.if the numerator is less then half of the denominator, then ur fraction is less then 1/2. But if ur numerator is more then half of the denominator, then ur fraction is more then 1/2.

so ur numerator is 2 and ur denominator is 5.......2 is less then half of 5 because half of 5 is 2.5.....therefore, 2/5 is less then 1/2.

so that means 15 4/10 rounded to the nearest whole number is 15.

A customer bought 7.5 pounds of apples from a local produce market. How many ounces of apples did the customer buy?
jeka94
Now if we have 7.5 pounds of apples first we need to convert 1 pound into ounces.

1 pound = 16 ounces.

Now we know how many ounces are in one pound. So lets take the 16 ounces for 1 pound and multiply by the 7 full pounds of apples. This excluding the 1/2 pound of apples.

7 x 16 = 112
(7 being the weight in pounds of the apples, 16 being 16 ounces in one pound, and 112 is how any ounces are in 7 pounds of apples.)

So now we have the amount of ounces in 7 pounds of apples.
But we are not done. We still have the 1/2 pound of apples. So we take 16 being 1 pound of apples and divide it by 2. 

16 divided by 2 = 8

That 1/2 pound of apples = 8 ounces.

So now we have our 7 pounds of apples in ounces (112) and our 1/2 pound of apples in ounces (8)

So we add these back up in ounces

112 + 8 = 120.

So now we can conclude:

7.5 pounds of apples is 120 ounces

Hope this helps!

Draw two number lines that show 0.200 and 1/5 are equivalent
8090 [49]
<span>To draw two number lines showing that 0.200 and 1/5 are equivalent, we draw a number line divided into 5 equal segments with range from 0 to 1.0, the points on this line will be at 0.2,0.4,0.6,0.8 and 1.0. Next we draw second number line with range from 0 to 5/5 with 5 equal segments. The points on this line will be 1/5, 2/5,3/5,4/5 and 5/5. The equal segments will show that these values 0.200 and 1/5 are equivalent.</span>

N^2 + 36n + c "find the value of c that completes the square"
RSB [31]

For this case we have the following polynomial:

n ^ 2 + 36n + c

To find the value of c that completes the square, we use the following equation:

c = (\frac {b} {2}) ^ 2

Where,

  • <em>b: coefficient of the variable of degree 1 </em>

Substituting values we have:

c = (\frac {36} {2}) ^ 2\\c = (18) ^ 2\\c = 324

Answer:

the value of c that completes the square is:

c = 324
