Simplify the expression -3 divided by -2/5.

You can either convert -3 into a fraction, or convert -2/5 into a decimal so you can solve this.
If you decide to convert -3, into a fraction, it would be -3/1, and you'd have to multiply that by the reciprocal of -2/5.
So, you'd have -3/1(-5/2)=15/2, which can be simplified to 7 1/2.
If you decide to convert -2/5 into a decimal, you would get -0.4. You would then divide -3 by -0.4, which is equal to 7.5.
Both 7.5 and 7 1/2 are correct answers, and if you were to convert 7.5 into a fraction and 7 1/2 into a decimal, you would notice that they are the same number, but in different forms.

First you need to find out how long she worked

7:32 to 3:43 is 8 hours and 11 minutes.

Multiply 6.75(her per hour salary) by 8 and you have $54. But you still have 11 minutes. 11 minutes is roughly 18.33% of an hour. So multiply 6.75 by 0.18 which is 1.25. Your answer is $55.24

A jar contains 5 blue marbles, 6 yellow marbles, and 4 green marbles. What is the probablity of randomly choosing a yellow marbl
marusya05 [52]

First, you need to choose a yellow marble. That is 6/15.

Next, you need to choose a blue marble. That is 5/14, because 1 yellow marble would have been "chosen" already.

So the probability altogether is 6/15 * 5/14 = 1/7, or about 14%.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS KHAN ASAP<br><br><br><br><br>I did 5 hours of Khan :(

Answer:

The functions have the same y-intercept.

OPTION C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>DEFINITIONS AND FORMULAS</u>

The equation of a linear graph is given to be:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope of the graph and b is the y-intercept.

To calculate the slope given a table, we can use the formula:

m=\frac{y^{2}-y^{1}  }{{}x^2 -x^1}

<u>SOLUTION</u>

<u>Function 1:</u> The equation of the graph is given to be

p=-\frac{3}{2}r-5

Therefore, the y-intercept of the graph is given to be:

b=-5

<u>Function 2: Recall that the y-intercept of a graph is the y-value when x = 0.</u>

On checking the graph, we can see that when r = 0, p = -5.

Therefore, the y-intercept is:

b=-5

ANSWER

The functions have the same y-intercept.

OPTION C is correct.

There are 946,946 milliliters in a quart. There are 22 pints in a quart. How many milliliters are in a pint?
Stels [109]

Answer:

473 milliliters.      

Step-by-step explanation:    

We have been given that there are 946 milliliters in a quart. There are 2 pints in a quart.

To find the number of milliliters in a pint we will divide 946 by 2.

\text{Amount of milliliters in a pint}=\frac{946}{2}

\text{Amount of milliliters in a pint}=473

Therefore, there are 473 milliliters in one pint.
