Answer:

\frac{2}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this equation we will need to use what we know in order to find the answer.

1=\frac{8}{8}

H=\frac{5}{8}

R = \frac{1}{8}

If Huge ate 5/8's of the pizza and 8/8's creates a whole pizza then the question is quite simple. There is only 1/8's remaining after the boys finish their meal but 5/8's of the pizza was already eaten by Hugo meaning Lucas has to eat 2/8's of the pizza in order for there to be only 1/8's of the pizza left which means 2/8's is your answer.

Hope this helps.

Divide a 5-inch line into two parts so that one part (a) 2 1/4 inches shorter than the other; (b) 3 times the other.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Part a), solve this system of equations:
x + y = 5
x - y = 2.25
2x = 7.25
x = 3.625
y = 1.375

part b), solve this system of equations:
x + y = 5
x = 3y
y = 1.25
x = 3.75

he pulse rates of 179 randomly selected adult males vary from a low of 43 bpm to a high of 115 bpm. Find the minimum sample size
malfutka [58]

Answer:

97

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Low = 43bpm

High = 115 bpm

Error = 3

α = 90%

To find the range estimate :

Standard destviation = (high - low) / 4

Standard deviation = (115 - 43) / 4

Standard deviation = 72/4 = 18

The sample size,(n) :

n = [(Zα/2 * sd)/E] ²

2 - tail = (Zα/2) = 1.645

[(Zα/2 * sd)/E] ² = [(1.645 * 18) / 3]² = (29.61/3)²

= 97.41

Sample size = 97

Kathy is fencing in her yard that has an area of 800 square feet. Her yard is in the shape of a rectangle where the length is 60
anygoal [31]

Answer:

The dimensions of the yard are W=20ft and L=40ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be:

W: width of the yard.

L:length.

Now, we can write the equation of that relates length and width:

L=5W-60 (Equation #1)

The area of the yard can be expressed as (using equation #1 into #2):

Area=W*L=W*(5W-60) (Equation #2)

Since the Area of the yard is 800 ft^2, then equation #2 turns into:

800=W*(5W-60)

Now, we rearrange this equation:  

800=W*(5W-60)//800=5W^2-60W//5W^2-60W-800=0

We can divide the equation by 5 :

W^2-12W-160=0

We need to find the solution for this quadratic. Let's find the factors of 160 that multiplied yields -160 and added yields -12. Let's choose -20 and 8, since (-20)*8=160 and -20+8=-12. The equation factorised looks like this:

(W-20)(W+8)=0

Therefore the possible solutions are W=20 and W=-8. We discard W=-8 since width must be a positive number. To find the length, we substitute the value of W in equation #1:

5*20-60=40

Therefore, the dimensions of the yard are W=20ft and L=40ft.

Write the fraction in simplest form. (3/6) x (7/10)
mrs_skeptik [129]
Answer:
7/20
Explanation:
In order to do this, you must first simplify all the equations to the simplest forms. Do this by simplifying 3/6 to 1/2. We know this because 3 is half of 6, therefore it would reduce down to 1/2. 7/10 is already simplified; we know this because 7 is a prime number and can’t do down any further
Now, multiply the two fractions buy multiplying the numerators and denominations together. In other words, 1 x 7 is 7 so your numerator is 7, and 2 x 10 is 20 so your denominator is 20.
