Answer:

1 : 4

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 marbles in a bag 1/5 are red and the others are blue. What is the ratio of red to blue marbles?

Number of red marbles = fraction of red marbles x total number of marbles

1/5 x 10 = 2

Number of blue marbles = total number of marbles - number of red marbles

10 - 2 = 8

ratio of red to blue marbles

2 : 8

To transform to the simplest form. divide both numbers by 2

1 : 4

3 Caleb claims that when you multiply a number by 10, you can just write a 0 at the right end of the number. Caleb gives the exa

devlian [24]

Answer:

They are both correct

Step-by-step explanation:

It's interpretation of the concept. In common practice multiplying by 10 means you add a zero and that's what we teach 10 year olds. But what does adding a zero mean? It means adding a place value and that's what you learn when you are

So in both examples just add a decimal:

2.0 x 10 = 20.

0.2 x 10 = 2.0

In conclusion, it depends on the level of precision required in the discussion and the level of maturity as to who is correct in their examples. If you are teaching 3rd graders math, by all means you add a zero. If you are discussing physics you are shifting over a place value.

$A.\\-vp+40 < 95\qquad\text{subtract 40 from both sides}\\\\-vp < 55\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\vp > -55\qquad\text{divide both sides by p}\\\\If\ p > 0\ then\ v>-\dfrac{55}{p}.\\\\If\ p < 0\ then\ v < -\dfrac{55}{p}$

$B>\\8w-3r=45\qquad\text{subtract 8 from both sides}\\\\-3r=-8w+45\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\3r=8w-45\qquad\text{divie both sides by 3}\\\\r=\dfrac{8w-45}{3}$

You have $2 and earn $0.50 for each cup of lemonade you sell. Write an equation in two variables that represents the total amoun

Pani-rosa [81]

So because you will have $2 no matter how many cups you sell the equation starts off as AA = 2

Next, you add the dependent variable, because 1 cup of cc = $0.50 you add 0.5cc to the equation (it can also be written as 1/2cc), to complete the equation.
AA = 1/2cc +2
