Answer:

A. 3.75 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

16 ounces = 1 pound

converting 60 ounces to pounds

Let x = number of pounds

60 ounces = x pounds

Find the proportion

16 / 1 = 60 / x

Cross product

16 * x = 1 * 60

16x = 60

Divide both sides by 16

x = 60/16

x = 3.75

Therefore,

60 ounces = 3.75 pounds

Answer:

  G7.  (2√3)/3

  G8.  -2+√7

  G9.  (6 +2√2 -3√3 -√6)/7

Step-by-step explanation:

G7.

\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{2\sqrt{3}}{3}

__

G8.

\dfrac{3}{2 +\sqrt{7}}=\dfrac{3}{2+\sqrt{7}}\cdot\dfrac{2-\sqrt{7}}{2-\sqrt{7}}=\dfrac{6-3\sqrt{7}}{2^2-(\sqrt{7})^2}\\\\=\dfrac{6-3\sqrt{7}}{-3}=\sqrt{7}-2

__

G9.

\dfrac{2-\sqrt{3}}{3-\sqrt{2}}=\dfrac{2-\sqrt{3}}{3-\sqrt{2}}\cdot\dfrac{3+\sqrt{2}}{3+\sqrt{2}}=\dfrac{(2-\sqrt{3})(3+\sqrt{2})}{9-2}\\\\=\dfrac{6+2\sqrt{2}-3\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{6}}{7}

<em>Comment on the problems</em>

In most cases, these expressions are the simplest possible (take the least amount of ink to draw, and take the fewest math operations to evaluate). What seems to be intended is that the denominator be made a rational number. This is done by multiplying the given fraction by a fraction equal to 1 that has the same denominator but with the sign of the radical reversed (unless, as in the first case, the radical is by itself).

The purpose of doing this is to take advantage of the fact that (a-b)(a+b) = a²-b², so if "a" or "b" is a square root, that root will not be seen in the product. In problem G9, we see this can make the numerator quite messy--not exactly a simpler form--but all the irrational numbers are in the numerator.

The difference between the largest share and the smallest share when 3450 yen is divided in the ratios 2:6:7
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

1150 yen

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 15 shares in total. 2+6+7

3450 / 15 = 230

So one share is 230

The smallest share is two

So 2×230 = 460 yen

Biggest share is Seven

So 7×230 = 1610 yen

1610 - 460 = 1150 yen

A group of three friends cycle from Llanfyllin to Vyrnwy at 12 km/h.
garik1379 [7]

The average speed for the journey from Llanfyllin to Bala is 14 km/h

Average speed is the ratio of total distance travelled to total time taken. Also, average speed can be given as the average of the different speeds.

Let d₁ represent the distance from Llanfyllin to Vyrnwy and t represent the time taken, since the speed is 12 km/h, hence:

12 = d₁/t

d₁ = 12t

Let d₂ represent the distance from Vyrnwy to bala and t represent the time taken. Since they spent the same time, since the speed is 16 km/h, hence:

16 = d₂/t

d₂ = 16t

Average speed = total distance/total time

Average speed = (d₁ + d₂) / (t + t)

Average speed = (12t + 16t) / 2t

Average speed = 28t / 2t

Average speed = 14 km/h

Hence their average speed for the journey from Llanfyllin to Bala is 14 km/h.
