Answer:

3/4 meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Need Common denominators to compare size

2/6  3/4  4/9     which is longer than 2/3?

2/6 compared to 2/3.  2/6 = 2/6 and 2/3 = 4/6.  

2/6 < 2/3 so 2/6 is too short

3/4 compared to 2/3   3/4 = 9/12  and 2/3 =  8/12

3/4 > 2/3 so 3/4 is longer than 2/3

4/9 compared to 2/3  4/9 = 4/9 and 2/3 = 6/9

4/9 < 2/3 so 4/9 is too short

Correct answer: She can use the bow with the length of 3/4

Explanation: when you divide 2/3 you get a continuous 0.6 so now you know that when you divide the rest of the lengths you need to find the answer which length is greater than 0.6. For example, 2/6 (2 divided by 6) = 0.3 so that is out. 4/9 (4 divided by 9)= 0.4 so that is out as well and as for 3/4 (3 divided by 4)= 0.75 which is greater than 0.6 and makes your answer of 3/4 correct.

Have a great day :)

7. Given the following information, calculate, in order, the amount credited and the outstanding balance.
svp [43]

Answer:

C. $824.74, $175.26

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Amount Credited

The formula to calculate the amount credited =

Amount paid ÷ ( 100% - Discount)

Discount is given in the question as 3/10

Where 3 = Discount rate

Amount paid = $800

Amount credited = 800/( 100% - 3%)

= 800/ 97%

= 800/ 0.97

= $824.74

b) Outstanding balance = Invoice - Amount credited

Invoice = $1000

Amount credited = $824.74

Outstanding balance = $1000 - $824.74

= $175.26

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to x - y = -5 and passes through (4, 7).
Ivanshal [37]
X - y = -5
-y = -x - 5
y = x + 5...slope here is 1. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip ur slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -1.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1
(4,7)...x = 4 and y = 7
now we sub and find b, the y int
7 = -1(4) + b
7 = -4 + b
7 + 4 = b
11 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -x + 11 <==

Given the relation y = 7x2 + 3, if the input is 4, what is the output? (4 points)
aivan3 [116]
I'm assuming that you meant: 
y = 7x² + 3 

Remember! Inputs are always x values (unless stated otherwise). Meaning the problem says: 
x = 4 

y = 7(4)² + 3 

The square only applies to the 4. The 7 is not going to be squared! (To be exact it only applies to whatever the value of x is. 

4² = 4·4 = 16

Remember: 
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

Follow PEMDAS from left to right (or in the case above from top to bottom).

7·16 + 3 = ? 

16·7 = 10·7 + 6·7 = 70 + 42 = 112
(All I did to multiply was break it up into parts. If it confuses you don't worry about it, and just multiply it out like normal or use a calculator if you are allowed to)

112 + 3 = ? 

Our output is: 
115!
