Divide the total amount by the portion size.

= 3 1/2 ÷ 1/4
convert 3 1/2 to improper fraction

= (2*3+1)/2 ÷ 1/4
= 7/2 ÷ 1/4

to divide a fraction, we multiply by the reciprocal/inverse of 1/4

= 7/2 * 4/1
multiply numerators, then multiply denominators

= (7*4)/(2*1)
= 28/2

= 14

ANSWER: 14

Hope this helps! :)

Use the following information to answer problems 14-16: Suppose that in a large metropolitan area, 82% of all households have ca
Helen [10]

Answer:

66.6% or 0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

82% or 0.82 of All households have cable TV.

X = The number of households in a group of 6, that have cable TV.

You wish to find the proportion or percentage of groups for which EXACTLY 4 of 6 households will have cable TV.

82% of 6 is = 4.92

Approximately 4.92 out of 6 households, have cable TV.

Using this figure, you can now find out what % of 6 will give you 4.

Cross multiply:

0.82 - 4.92

M - 4

M = (4×0.82) ÷ 4.92 = 3.28÷4.92 = 0.666

Hence, 66.6% of 6 households, have cable TV. In other words, exactly 4 households (X=4) have cable TV.

To test, you can find what 66% of 6 is. You will get 4.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

12.5 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of tile = 2.5 in

Base of tile = 2*height of tile = 2*2.5 = 5 in

Length of other side of tile = 2.5 in

Required:

Area of the tile

SOLUTION:

Area of the tile = area of parallelogram

All we need to calculate the area of the tile, is the base and the height.

Area of parallelogram = base × height

Area of tile = 5 × 2.5 = 12.5 in²

Definition of vertical line test
Serhud [2]

the vertical line test is a graphical way to determine whether or not the graph is a function of x

if you can draw a vertical line on a graph and cross the graph at least 2 times, the graph is not a function

a function will have 1 y value for every x value, therefore, if we can draw a vertical line (x=c, a constant) that intersects the curve at more than 1 point, then that point where it intersects at more than 1 point is where 1 value of x coresponds to more than 1 value of y and is therefore not a function
