3/4 is bigger. 3 divided by 4 is 0.75.  3 divided by 8 is 0.375

3/4 is bigger than 3/8. It might seem confusing, but the bigger the denominator, or the number on the bottom, the smaller the fraction. For instance, if you had 4 apples and you ate 1, you could still say that you had most of your apples, since you still have 3/4. However, if you have 8 apples, and you ate 5, then you couldn't say that you have most of them, since you only have 3 of the 8 you started with.

Hope this helps!

andriy [413]

Answer:

x + y = 36.....Equation 1

x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of:

Orange goldfish = x

Black gold fish = y

Anna has a total of 36 goldfish in her aquarium, some are orange and some are black.

x + y = 36.....Equation 1

The number of orange goldfish is 7 more than twice the number of black goldfish.

x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2

We can rewrite this as:

x - 2y = 7..... Equation 2

The system of equations below that can be used to describe the number of black and orange goldfish in Anna's aquarium is :

x + y = 36.....Equation 1

x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2

Isosceles trapezoid FGHJ has base angles that measure (8x+14) and (14x-15). Find x and the measure of each base angle.
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Base angles of Isosceles triangles are equal.

Equation

That means that 8x + 14 = 14x - 15

Solution

8x + 14 = 14x - 15              Add 15 to both sides

8x + 14+15 = 14x               Combine

8x + 29 = 14x                   Subtract 8x from both sides

8x - 8x + 29 = 14x - 8x    Combine

29 = 6x                            Divide by 6

x = 29/6

x = 4 5/6

Answer

x = 4 5/6 or 4.833

8x + 14 = 8 * (4 5/6)   +  14

8x + 14 = 38 2/3 + 14

8x + 14 = 52 2/3 or 52.6666

14x - 15 = 14 *(4 5/6) - 15

14x - 15 = 67 2/3   -15

14x - 15 = 52 2/3 or 52.666
