Problem 1
<h3>Answer: 2/5</h3>
--------------------------
Explanation:
There are 4 green blocks out of 4+6 = 10 total. We divide the number of green over the number total to get the answer. Reduce the fraction as much as possible. The fraction 4/10 reduces to 2/5 (we divide both parts by 2).
====================================================
Problem 2
<h3>Answer: 1/6</h3>
--------------------------
Explanation:
The probability the spinner lands on red is 2/6 = 1/3. This is because there are 2 spaces that are red out of 6 total. It helps to reduce as much as possible.
The probability the coin lands on heads is 1/2 because there's 1 side labeled heads out of 2 total.
Multiply the fractions: 1/3 * 1/2 = 1/6
This works because both events are independent.
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you meant :
the restaurant has 20 1/2 pounds of bananas.
one smoothie uses 1/8 pound of bananas.
how many smoothies can be made with the amount of available bananas ?
the answer is as many as the times 1/8 fit into 20 1/2.
so, we actually calculate
(20 1/2) / (1/8)
first we will convert the mixed number into a true fraction :
20 1/2 = 40/2 + 1/2 = 41/2
so we have
41/2 / 1/8
and then, when dividing fractions we have 2 choices (they do both the same, of course, but start looking differently) :
a/b / c/d = a×d / b×c
a/b / c/d = a/b × d/c = a×d / b×c
so,
41/2 / 1/8 = 41×8 / 2×1 = 41×4 = 164
they can make 164 smoothies.
Answer:
<em><u>D.</u></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
A polynomial is an expression that looks similar to this:
3x³+x-3
<span>(a) At the end of Month 0, about how many more insects were in Pod A than Pod B? Explain.
In Pod A, the point is higher than 50, it could be 60 to 70 insects. Pod B has 20 insects. So, Pod A has at least 40 insects more than Pod B.
(b) Find and compare the growth rates of each pod. Show your work.
Pod A: (0,60) ; (1,80) ; (2,100)
(80-60)/60 = 0.33
(100-80)/80 = 0.25
Pod B: (0,20) ; (1,44) ; (2,97)
(44-20)/20 = 1.2
(97-44)/44 = 1.2
Based on my computation, the rate of Pod A is lower than the rate of Pod B.
(c) When does the population in Pod B exceed the population in Pod A? Explain.
Pob B exceeds the population of Pod A at the END OF MONTH 4.
Pod A has a population of less than 200 while Pod B has a population of 469.</span>
