Answer:

42 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

For me what i usually do is i convert the mixed number into a fraction, which for example:

Example and Explanation: Step 1

so since the number 7 is the denominator and the 2 is the mixed number, we can multiply these numbers, 2 x 7 = 14, then we add our numerator which in this case, is one, 14 + 1 = 15, and since the denominator stays the same, our fraction now is 15/7. We do the same for the others:

3 3/4:

3 x 4 = 12 + 3 = 15 = 15/4

5 1/3:

5 x 3 = 15 + 1 = 16 = 16/3

Now that they are all fractions we can finally do the multiplication

Multiplying Fractions: Step 2

Multiplying fractions does not require that the fractions have the same denominator. Instead, the numerators are multiplied with each other and the denominators are multiplied with each other. However, the resulting fraction may not be in lowest terms so it may need to be reduced. So since this is a three step multiplication problem, we will multiply two fractions first.

In this case I chose 15/7 x 15/4. so we just multiply from there, 15 x 15 = 225, and 7 x 4 = 28. So our fraction is 225/28, now we will multiply the other fraction: 225/28 x 16/3 which comes out to 3,600/84. Wow, thats a big number, now its time to..

Reduce: Step 3

This fraction is far too big to be a proper answer, so we will reduce, also known as simplifying.

Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 3600 and 84, if it exists, and reduce our fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by it. GCF = 12,

=3600÷1284÷12=3007

Converting to a mixed number using long division with remainders for 300 ÷ 7.

300÷7=42r6

Therefore:

300/7 = 42 6/7

I am so sorry if i am wrong

4 to the 4th power equals 256. Explain how to use that fact to more quickly evaluate 4 to the 5th power.

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: Because 4 is the base of what is being exponentially multiplied, you can multiply 256 by 4 to get 4^5

Quadratic equation whose vertex is (2,3) and y intercept is 11

never [62]

Answer:

y = 2(x - 2)² + 3 vertex form

y = 2x² - 8x + 11 standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex form

y = a(x - h)² + k

(h, k) = (2, 3)

y = a(x - 2)² + 3

To find "a" plug in the y-intercept (0, 11)

11 = a(-2)² + 3

11 = 4a + 3

Subtract 3 from both sides

8 = 4a

a = 2

y = 2(x - 2)² + 3

Expand

y = 2(x² - 4x + 4) + 3

y = 2x² - 8x + 11

Find the greatest common factor of the following monomials 45m 6m^5

zzz [600]

The greatest common factor of 45m and 6m^5 is 3m. Here's how to find a greatest common factor:

1). Figure out the greatest number that divides evenly into every number in a given set. In your case, the number is 3.

2). Figure out the greatest number of variables that each of the monomials share. In your case, both of your monomials have at least 1 m. This can simply be represented as m.

The final answer is the answers you get from steps 1 and 2 combined.

I hope this helps you out! I have a feeling that my wording might be confusing. If you have any questions, ask me as a comment.

Doug is going to ride his bicycle 3,000 miles across the United States, from coast to coast. He wants to choose the route that w

Bogdan [553]

Answer: hello your question has some missing data below is the missing data

There have been 2 attempts on the northern route from Maine to Washington. Both of those riders made it 2,000 miles and quit in Montana. There have been 19 attempts on the central route from Virginia to California; 9 of those riders didn't make it out of Virginia and the other 10 made it all the way to the Pacific. There have been 32 attempts on the southern route from Florida to San Diego. One of those riders made it the whole way. Another realized he was out of shape, and quit before he even started. The other 30 riders quit somewhere in Texas. They were evenly distributed between 1 , 300 and 1 , 700 miles. For the northern route, the median distance covered will be the mean. For the central route, the median distance covered will be the mean. For the southern route, the median distance covered will likely be the mean

answer : Doug should choose the Central route

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Available routes = 3

Northern route ; Total distance covered = 2000 miles

Central route : Total distance between Virginia and California = 2818.5 miles

percentage of success = 10 / 19 * 100 = 52.63 %

Mean distance covered = 2818.5 * 52.63% = 1483.38 miles

southern route

Distance to be covered = 2,548 miles

number of attempts = 32

percentage of success = 1 = ( 1 / 32) * 100 = 3.12%

median distance covered by 30 riders = 1300 + ( 400 / 30 ) = 1313.33

Conclusion :

Doug should choose central route because it has the highest percentage of success and longest distance covered ( i.e. closest to 3000 miles ) and it is also coast to coast
