Answer:
0.625
Step-by-step explanation:
5 out of 8 of the sections in the circle are yellow. This means that there is a 5/8 chance of the spinner landing in a yellow section.
5/8 written as a decimal is 0.625
The answer is 0.625
a. 9/10
explanation:
• the denominators (bottom number) are the same so there is no need to change to a common factor
• because the fractions have common factors, you add the top numbers (3+6) to get 9
• then you put the top number over the 10 (9/10) and it’s simplified as much as possible
b. 3/4
explanation:
• each denominator (bottom term) is a factor of 12 so you have to change each fraction to #/12
• to change 1/3, you multiply the top and bottom numbers by 4 (1x4 & 3x4 = 4/12)
• to change 1/4, you multiply the top and bottom numbers by 3 (1x3 & 4x3 = 3/12)
• to change 1/6, you multiple the top and bottom numbers by 2 (1x2 & 6x2 = 2/12)
• then you add each of the top numbers (4+3+2) and put it over the common denominator (12) to get 9/12
- both 9 & 12 are divisible by 3, so you simply by dividing both by 3 to get 3/4
c. 1/3
explanation:
•the denominators are the same, so you subtract 5-3 without changing the denominator & you get 2/6
• then, because both numbers are divisible by 2, you divide both by 2 and get 1/3
(x-1)^2=9 <=> x-1=3 <=> x=4
Answer: The numbers are decreasing by 2. So that means that the eighteenth number would be -29.
Explanation:
{5, 3, 1, -1, -3, -5, -7, -9, -11, -13, -15, -17, -19, -21, -23, -25, -27, -29...}
2x + 3y = 6
3y = - 2x + 6
y = -2/3x + 2....slope here is -2/3
A parallel line will have the same slope
y = mx + b
slope(m) = - 2/3
(-2,3)...x = -2 and y = 3
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y intercept
3 = -2/3(-2) + b
3 = 4/3 + b
3 - 4/3 = b
9/3 - 4/3 = b
5/3 = b
ur equation is : y = -2/3x + 5/3 (slope intercept form)
y = -2/3x + 5/3
2/3x + y = 5/3
2x + 3y = 5 (standard form)
