Ted rented the bike for 8 hours
cost of Bike $10
50-10=40
40/5, (because each hour costs $5)=8
Answer:
quantity a is halfed
Corrected question;
A quantity a varies inversely as a quantity b, if, when b changes a changes in the inverse ratio. What happens to the quantity a if the quantity b doubles?
Step-by-step explanation:
Analysing the question;
A quantity a varies inversely as a quantity b,
a ∝ 1/b
a = k/b ......1
when b changes a changes in the inverse ratio;
Since the change at the same ratio but inversely, k = 1
So, equation 1 becomes;
a = 1/b
If the quantity b doubles,
ab = 1
a1b1 = a2b2
When b doubles, b2 = 2b1
a1b1 = a2(2b1)
Making a2 the subject of formula;
a2 = a1b1/(2b1)
a2 = a1/2
Therefore, when b doubles, a will be divided by 2, that means a is halfed.
Yes. Multiplying anything by a number less than one will decrease the original number. So multiplying two decimals will result in a number less than either one.
A number that can be turned into a ratio form.
Answer:
The least common denominator is (b-8)(b+8)(b-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given expression as

Firstly, we will factor both denominators


so, we can plug it back

First term denominator is
(b-8)(b+8)
Second term denominator is
(b+8)(b-1)
So,
Least common denominator will be
(b-8)(b+8)(b-1)
So, we get
