Find 4/7 divided by 7/8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Reika [66]3 years ago
8 0
If you divide a fraction by another fraction, this is equivalent to mupltiplying by its inverse:

so \frac{4}{7} divided by\frac{7}{8}

is equivalent to

\frac{4}{7} multiplied by by\frac{7}{8} 

which is


\frac{4}{7}* \frac{7}{8}= \frac{4*7}{7*8}= \frac{4}{8}= \frac{1}{2}

so the answer is \frac{1}{2} which is also 0.5

6. A prism has bases that are equilateral triangles with sides lengths of 10 inches and a length of 30 inches.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The volume of the prism is 1,299\ in^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the prism is equal to

V=BL

where

B is the area of the triangular base

L is the length of the prism

we have

L=30\ in

<em>Find the area of the base B</em>

The area of a equilateral triangle is equal to

B=\frac{1}{2}(10)^{2} sin(60\°)

B=25\sqrt{3}\ in^{2}

substitute

V=(25\sqrt{3})(30)=1,299\ in^{3}

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

  • It is the last graph: solid line, shaded area over the line x = 2 - x/2

Explanation:

1) <u>Set the algebraigic expression that represents the combinations of sofa and pillow orders:</u>

  • Number of sofas: x (given)
  • Number of pillows: 2y (given, since they come in pairs)
  • Number of items = number of sofas + number of pillows = x + 2y
  • Minimum of 4 items in each order (given) ⇒ x + 2y ≥ 4

<u>2) Predict the graph of the inequality x + 2y ≥ 4</u>

  • The border line is the equation x + 2y = 4
  • You can choose two points to draw a line
  • Choose the axis-intercepst:

        x = 0 ⇒ 2y = 4 ⇒ y =4/2 ⇒ y = 2 ⇒ point (0,2)

        y = 0 ⇒ x = 4 ⇒ point (4,0)

        Then the lines goes through (0,2) and (4,0) ... [the four graphs meet this]

  • The shading area is above the line because when you solve for y you get y ≥   2 - x/2, and the line is included because the "equal to" part of the symbol (≥ means greater than or equal to).

  •  To state that the line is included the graph uses a continous line instead of a dotted one.

<u>3) Conclusion:</u>

That means that the correct graph is the last one: solid line, shaded area over the line y = 2 - x/2.

Note: a more detailed graph would include the fact that the items cannot be negative, i.e. x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0, which would result in that the shaded area would be on the first quadrant.
