How would I show 2/5 as a division problem? Please explain using complete sentences.

Mathematics

Temka [501]4 years ago

If you mean to ask how you divide 2 by 5, then consider instead dividing 20 by 5, then divide that result by 10 (which is as simple as moving a decimal point to the left)

We have 20/5 = 4, then 4/10 = 0.4.

Why does this work? All we're doing is multiplying by 1 in the form of 10/10, then moving around factors within the product:

2/5 = 2/5 * 10/10 = (2*10)/5 * 1/10 = 20/5 * 1/10 = 4/10 = 0.4

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost (C) depends on the number of miles traveled (x).

So C is the dependent variable.

Or C(x) if they want you to be more specific.

x is your independent variable.

Miles driven do not depend on anything.

In a small town, the stray cat population is rapidly increasing. There are currently 20 stray cats, and it is estimated
BigorU [14]
2 years will be 80 cats (20 x 2 = 40 (year 1) and 40 x 2 = 80 (year 2))

3 years will be 160 (80 x 2 = 160)

5 years will be (160 x 2 = 320 (year 4) and 320 x 2 = 640 (year 5)) So 5 years will be 640

dedylja [7]

Answer:

89 rooms should be set for early book customer

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

OVERAGE(CO) = 200

SHORTAGE(CS) = 500

In order to calculate how many rooms should be set for early book customer we would have to use the following formula:

OPTIMAL BOOKING = MEAN + (Z * STDEV)

MEAN = 75

STDEV = 25

SERVICE LEVEL= CS / (CS + CO) = 500 / (500 + 200) = 0.7143

Z VALUE FOR 0.7143 = 0.57

OPTIMAL BOOKING =  75 + (0.57 * 25) = 89

89 rooms should be set for early book customer
