500 in the ratio 2:3

2 answers:

8 0

500 in 2:3 is saying that there are five different parts (2 + 3)
This means that 500 needs to be split into five, which is 100.
After that all you need to do is put 2 'sections' on one side and 3 on the other.

For example, 2 : 3 = 2( x 100) : 3( x 100)
= 200 : 300

You add 2 and 3 together = 5 then divide 500 by 5 to get 100 you then times 100 by 2 for the first number = 200 and times 100 by 3 for the second number = 300 so the ratio = 200:300

What is a y-intercept of the continuous function in the table?

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

5=y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

the y intercept point is when y has a number but x is 0 so we see what is y (f(x)) and it is 5

Write the following number as ratios of integers

s2008m [1.1K]

Our goal here is to somehow "surgically remove" the repeating part of the number, so let's start by putting the original value in a variable and messing around with it a bit.

We'll let $x=7.\overline{6}$ . We want to cut the $0.\overline{6}$ bit off completely, so let's create the scalpel that'll let us do that. If $x=7.\overline{6}$ , then we can also say that $10x=76.\overline{6}$ . Maybe I was lying a bit: the $x$ is our real scalpel here, and $10x$ is where we'll be making the cut. Mathematically, a "cut" is almost always shorthand for subtraction, so let's see what our operation (cutting $x$ off of $10x$ ) leaves us with:

$10x-x=76.\overline{6}-7.\overline{6}\\9x=69$

The operation was a success! We can now simply divide either side by 9 to find $x = 69/9$ , which, when reduced by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3, gives us $x=23/3$

A pitcher of punch holds 2 gallons if 9 people share the entire pitcher how much do that get a peice

kirza4 [7]

To find how much each person will get, you have to divide the amount available by the people. There are 2 ways I believe we can do this.
First way
Let's divide.
2÷9= 2/9

Each person would get 2/9 of a gallon if they shared it.

≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡
Second way
I believe it would be easier to convert this into cups. There are 16 cups per gallon.
16×2= 32
Let's divide that by 9.
32÷9= 3 5/9 cups per person.
