-3/5*1/8 as the anser as a fraction

Mathematics
1 answer:
MArishka [77]3 years ago
7 0

Multiplying fractions, unlike adding them, does not require you to find a common denominator. Simply multiply the numerator and denominator and simplify if you have to. In this case, it's \frac{-3}{5} * \frac{1}{8}.

--> \frac{-3 * 1}{5 * 8}

A negative multiplied by a positive is still negative, so this becomes -\frac{3}{40}.

One month Tammy rented 2 movies and 6 video games for a total of $ 42 . The next month she rented 5 movies and 3 video games for
jeka94

Answer:

The rental cost of one movie is $2.25 and the rental cost of one video game is $6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rental cost of 1 movie be m.

Let the rental cost of 1 video game be v.

One month, Tammy rented 2 movies and 6 video games for a total of $42. This means that:

2m + 6v = 42 ________ (1)

The next month she rented 5 movies and 3 video games for a total of $30. This means that:

5m + 3v = 30 _________(2)

We now have two simultaneous equations:

2m + 6v = 42 ________ (1)

5m + 3v = 30 _________(2)

Multiply (2) by 2, and we have:

2m + 6v = 42 __________ (1)

10m + 6v = 60 _________ (3)

Subtract (1) from (3):

 10m + 6v = 60

-<u> 2m + 6v = 42</u>

 <u>  8m     =     18</u>

=> m = 18 / 8

m = $2.25

Put the value of m back in (1):

2(2.25) + 6v = 42

4.5 + 6v = 42

=> 6v = 42 - 4.5 = 37.5

v = 37.5 / 6

v = $6.25

Therefore, the rental cost of one movie is $2.25 and the rental cost of one video game is $6.25

a machine can reduce 21 inches of ribbon every 3 minutes. How many feet of ribbon can the machine make in one hour?
Zarrin [17]
Okay. Let's make a proportion for this. So we can do 21/3=x/60. Let's multiply cross way. So 21 x 60 is 1260. We multiply 3 by x to get 3x. So our equation will be 3x=1260. We can isolate the equation by 3, and 1260 divided by 3 is 420. So x=420. We then have to convert into feet. So 420 divided by 12 is 35. So it would be 35 feet. Therefore, the machine can make 35feet of ribbon in a hour.

Answer:

<u>Use Pythagorean:</u>

  • a² + b² = c²
<h3>#1</h3>
  • x² = 16² - 8²
  • x² = 192
  • x = √192
  • x = 12.73, not an integer

<u>Not a Pythagorean triple</u>

<h3>#2</h3>
  • x² = 40² + 9²
  • x² = 1681
  • x = √1681
  • x = 41

<u>It is a Pythagorean triple (9, 40, 41)</u>

<h3>#3</h3>
  • x² = 6² + 13²
  • x² = 205
  • x = √205
  • x = 14.32, not an integer

<u>Not a Pythagorean triple</u>

1) On a standardized aptitude test, scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 10. Find the
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

A) 34.13%

B)  15.87%

C) 95.44%

D) 97.72%

E) 49.87%

F) 0.13%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent of scores that are between 90 and 100, we need to standardize 90 and 100 using the following equation:

z=\frac{x-m}{s}

Where m is the mean and s is the standard deviation. Then, 90 and 100 are equal to:

z=\frac{90-100}{10}=-1\\ z=\frac{100-100}{10}=0

So, the percent of scores that are between 90 and 100 can be calculated using the normal standard table as:

P( 90 < x < 100) = P(-1 < z < 0) = P(z < 0) - P(z < -1)

                                                =  0.5 - 0.1587 = 0.3413

It means that the PERCENT of scores that are between 90 and 100 is 34.13%

At the same way, we can calculated the percentages of B, C, D, E and F as:

B) Over 110

P( x > 110 ) = P( z>\frac{110-100}{10})=P(z>1) = 0.1587

C) Between 80 and 120

P( 80

D) less than 80

P( x < 80 ) = P( z

E) Between 70 and 100

P( 70

F) More than 130

P( x > 130 ) = P( z>\frac{130-100}{10})=P(z>3) = 0.0013
