Is 83% and 0.83333333 the same? If not which one is bigger??

I need help to these questions. Convert these fractions to a decimal 7/8 , 4 3/8. Thanks

ehidna [41]

Simple...

you have: $\frac{7}{8}$ and $4 \frac{3}{8}$

Now, the first one is easy just divide it...

$\frac{7}{8} =0.875$

Now....

$4 \frac{3}{8}$ needs to be converted...

Multiply the whole number*denominator...

4*8=32

Now add the numerator....

32+3=35

Now use the original denominator...

$\frac{35}{8}$

Now divide...

$\frac{35}{8}=4.375
$

Thus, your answer.

Brown rice costs $2 per pound, and beans cost $1.60 per pound. Lin has $10 to spend on these items to make a large meal of beans

Valentin [98]

Answer:

1. $2r+1.6b=10$

2. $r=5-0.8b$

3. $b=6.25-1.25r$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is: "Brown rice costs $2 per pound, and beans cost $1.60 per pound. Lin has $10 to spend on these items to make a large meal of beans and rice for a potluck dinner. Let b be the number of pounds of beans Lin buys and r be the number of pounds of rice she buys when she spends all her money on this meal.</h3><h3>1. Write an equation relating the two variables.</h3><h3>2. Rearrange the equation so "b" is the independent variable.</h3><h3>3. Rearrange the equation so "r" is the independent variable."</h3><h3 />

1. According to the information exercise given in the exercise, the cost per pounds of brown rice is $2. Since "r" represents the number of pounds of rice Lin buys, the total cost of the brown rice she buys can be represented with this expression:

$2r$

The beans cost $1.60 per pound. Since "b" represents the number of pounds of beans Lin buys, the total cost of beans she buys can be represented as:

$1.6b$

Knowing that she spends $10, you can write the following equation:

$2r+1.6b=10$

2. In order to rearrange the equation so "b" is the independent variable, you need to solve for "r":

$2r+1.6b=10\\\\2r=10-1.6b\\\\r=\frac{10-1.6b}{2} \\\\r=5-0.8b$

3. To rearrange the equation so "r" is the independent variable, you must solve for "b". You get:

$2r+1.6b=10\\\\1.6b=10-2r\\\\b=\frac{10-2r}{1.6}\\\\b=6.25-1.25r$

(1,-4) x-2y=8<br> 4x-y=8

deff fn [24]

Answer:

False solution; [1⅐, -3 3⁄7]

Step-by-step explanation:

{x - 2y = 8

{4x - y = 8

-¼[4x - y = 8]

{x - 2y = 8

{-x + ¼y = -2 >> New Equation

____________

-1¾y = 6

y = -3 3⁄7 [Plug this back into both equations to get the x-coordinate of 1⅐]; 1⅐ = x
