No. If you divide 69 by 100 you would get 0.69. If you divided 6 by 10 you would get 0.6. Therefore 69/100 and 6/10 is not equivalent.
PART A :OK so here is the table for the health inspector; all you are really doing is 7+7+7, and so on:
PART A: health inspector: 7,14,21,28,35,42,49,56,63,70,77,84..........
PART A:same thing for the fire inspector, except this time your adding 12+12+12, and so on:
PART A: fire inspector: 12,24,36,48,60,72,84,96.......
PART B: and to figure out what day they will both come is you have to find the LCM (least common multiple)
PART B: which in this case is Day 84
hopes this helps!!!!!
Answer:
The value of x and y that satisfy the equations is x = 2 and y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2.5(x−3y)−3=−3x+0.5
3(x+6y)+4=9y+19
Required.
Find x and y
We start by opening all brackets
2.5(x−3y)−3=−3x+0.5 becomes
2.5x - 7.5y - 3 = -3x + 0.5
Collect like terms
2.5x + 3x - 7.5y = 3 + 0.5
5.5x - 7.5y = 3.5 ---- Equation 1
In similar vein, 3(x+6y)+4=9y+19 becomes
3x + 18y + 4 = 9y + 19
Collect like terms
3x + 18y - 9y = 19 - 4
3x + 9y = 15
Multiply through by ⅓
⅓ * 3x + ⅓ * 9y = ⅓ * 15
x + 3y = 5
Make x the subject of formula
x = 5 - 3y
Substitute 5 - 3y for x in equation 1
5.5(5 - 3y) - 7.5y = 3.5
27.5 - 16.5y - 7.5y = 3.5
27.5 - 24y = 3.5
Collect like terms
-24y = 3.5 - 27.5
-24y = -24
Divide through by - 24
y = 1
Recall that x = 5 - 3y.
Substitute 1 for y in this equation
x = 5 - 3(1)
x = 5 - 3
x = 2
Hence, x = 2 and y = 1
Answer: 16/25 (sorry I'm not really sure bc I'm just a middle schooler)
Step-by-Step explanation:
2 2/5 km=2.4 kilometers
3 3/4 minutes=3.75 minutes
2.4/3.75=240/375
240/375=48/75=16/25=64/100=0.64
0.64 km/minute (0.64 km per minute)
you can solve the problem using the fractions...
2 2/5=12/5
3 3/4=15/4
(12/5)/(15/4)=(12/5)*(4/15)=48/75=16/25=0.64 again, or you can simplify before multiplying...
(12/5)/(15/4)=(12/5)*(4/15)=(4/5)*(4/5)=16/25...
