Nicole used only a fraction of her ribbon to wrap the present

the length of ribbon she used is 6 feeet

so lets name the length of the ribbon she had originally as X

the fraction of X she used was - 3/8 of X

so we can write the following equation

when of function is used we multiply

3X = 6*8

3X = 48

X = 16

therefore length of the original ribbon piece Nicole had was 16 feet

-1/3 + (-7/4)<br> pls help
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

  -25            

 ——— = -2.08333

    12  

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

           7

Simplify   —

           4

Equation at the end of step  1  :

       1           7

 (0 -  —) +  (0 -  —)

       3           4

Step  2  :

           1

Simplify   —

           3

Equation at the end of step  2  :

       1     -7

 (0 -  —) +  ——

       3     4

Step  3  :

Calculating the Least Common Multiple :

3.1    Find the Least Common Multiple

     The left denominator is :       3

     The right denominator is :       4

       Number of times each prime factor

       appears in the factorization of:

Prime

Factor   Left

Denominator   Right

Denominator   L.C.M = Max

{Left,Right}

3 1 0 1

2 0 2 2

Product of all

Prime Factors  3 4 12

     Least Common Multiple:

     12

Calculating Multipliers :

3.2    Calculate multipliers for the two fractions

   Denote the Least Common Multiple by  L.C.M

   Denote the Left Multiplier by  Left_M

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  Right_M

   Denote the Left Deniminator by  L_Deno

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  R_Deno

  Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 4

  Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 3

Making Equivalent Fractions :

3.3      Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions

Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.

For example :  1/2   and  2/4  are equivalent,  y/(y+1)2   and  (y2+y)/(y+1)3  are equivalent as well.

To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.

  L. Mult. • L. Num.      -1 • 4

  ——————————————————  =   ——————

        L.C.M               12  

  R. Mult. • R. Num.      -7 • 3

  ——————————————————  =   ——————

        L.C.M               12  

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

3.4       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

-1 • 4 + -7 • 3     -25

———————————————  =  ———

      12            12

Final result :

 -25            

 ——— = -2.08333

 12

A bag contains 20 slips of paper Individually numbered. If a slip of paper and a letter in the word PENNSYLVANIA is chosen at ra
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

P(M4\ n\ V) = 2.083\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Paper = 20 slips

Word: PENNSYLVANIA

Required

Determine P(Multiple of 4 and V)

The sample size of the 20 slips is:

n(S) = 20

The outcomes of multiples of 4 is:

M4= \{4,8,12,16,20\}

n(M4) = 5

So, the probability of multiples of 4 is:

Pr(M4) = \frac{5}{20}

Pr(M4) = \frac{1}{4}

The sample size of PENNSYLVANIA is:

n(S) = 12

The outcome of V is:

n(V) = 1

So, the probability of V is:

P(V) = \frac{1}{12}

So, the required probability is: P(Multiple of 4 and V)

P(M4\ n\ V) = P(M4) * P(V)

P(M4\ n\ V) = \frac{1}{4} * \frac{1}{12}

P(M4\ n\ V) = \frac{1}{48}

P(M4\ n\ V) = 0.02083

Express as percentage

P(M4\ n\ V) = 0.02083 * 100\%

P(M4\ n\ V) = 2.083\%

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that passes through (-3,1) and is parallel to the line represented by
Shalnov [3]
 assume you want a line that goes through the given point and parallel to the given line. A line that is parallel to y=2/3 x + 5 will have the same slope. slope of that line is 2/3...the number in front of the x. So our new line will have slope of 2/3. now we need the y-intercept. To find that start with a slope intercept equation y=mx+b plug in the slope that we already know...it goes in for x...will be the number in front of x y= 2/3 x + b. now all we need is a number to plug in for the "b" and we will have it. to get the "b"...start with the part you already know. y = 2/3 x + b use the point they gave you...(-3,1)...and get x and y from it x will be -3 and y will be 1 plug that in 1= 2/3 ( -3) + b now we solve for b 1 = -2 + b 3 = b now we have the b we need y = 2/3 x + b y = 2/3 x + 3
