Given:

The expression is \dfrac{7}{\frac{5}{8}}.

To find:

The shows the correct way to use the rule ""multiply by the reciprocal"" for the given expression.

Solution:

According to the rule "multiply by the reciprocal", if a,b,c,d are four number, then

\dfrac{\dfrac{a}{b}}{\dfrac{c}{d}}=\dfrac{a}{b}\times \dfrac{d}{c}

We have,

\dfrac{7}{\frac{5}{8}}

It can be written as

\dfrac{7}{\frac{5}{8}}=\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{1}}{\dfrac{5}{8}}

Using the rule "multiply by the reciprocal", we get

\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{1}}{\dfrac{5}{8}}=\dfrac{7}{1}\times \dfrac{8}{5}

\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{1}}{\dfrac{5}{8}}=\dfrac{7\times 8}{1\times 5}

\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{1}}{\dfrac{5}{8}}=\dfrac{56}{5}

Therefore, the correct option is D.

At a chocolate store, 70% of the items are dark chocolate and 30% are milk chocolate. Also 20% of the items have nuts and 80% ar
Delvig [45]

Answer:

A. 13%

Step-by-step explanation:

let's suppose there's 1000 bars of chocolate in general

70 % dark = 700 dark choco bars

30 % milk = 300 milk choco bars

20 % have nuts = 200 bars have nuts

80 % don't have nuts = 800 bars don't have nuts

if 90 % of dark chocolate bars don't have nuts, that means 630 dark chocolate bars don't have nuts, but 70 have nuts

200 bars in general have nuts, if only 70 dark chocolate bars have nuts,

200 - 70 = 130

130 = 13%

PLEASEEEEEEEE HELPPPPPPPPP MEEEEEEEEEE
Archy [21]

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

In general

Given

y = f(x) then y = f(Cx) is a horizontal stretch/ compression in the x- direction

• If C > 1 then compression

• If 0 < C < 1 then stretch

Consider corresponding points on the 2 graphs

(2, 2 ) → (4, 2 )

(4, - 2 ) → (8, - 2 )

Indicating a stretch in the x- direction.

y = f(\frac{x}{2} ) with C = \frac{1}{2} , that is 0 < C < 1

stretches the graph in the x- direction by a factor of 2

Thus

y = f(\frac{x}{2} ) → b

How many numbers between 100 and 999 are divisible by 4?
QveST [7]
Try this solution:
1. Note, that 100 is divisible by 4, and 999 is not divisible by it, only 996. This is an arithmetic sequence.
2. a1;a2;a3;a4;...a(n) the sequence, where a1=100; a2=104; a3=108; a4=112; ... etc., and a(n)=996. n=?
3. using a formula for n-term of the sequence: a(n)=a1+d(n-1), where a(n)=996; a1=100 and d=4 (according to the condition ' is divisible by 4'). Then 100+4(n-1)=996; ⇒ 4n=900; ⇒ n=225 (including 100).

answer: 225
