Answer:

The first thing to do is to make the denominators of the fractions the same:

16 / 4 = 4.  4 X 3 = 12.

12/16.

16 / 1 = 16.  16 X 1 = 16

16/16

Now you write this out as a fraction equation:

(16/16 - 1/16) / 12/16

15/16 / 12/16

Since all you need to know is the whole number, you can easily tell that 15 / 12 is less than 2.  

Therefore, Alex is able to fill one 3/4-point containers with orange butter.

Daniel works at a nearby electronics store. He makes a commission of 15% on everything she cells. If he sells a laptop for $293,
Bezzdna [24]

Hi there!

So here's the important information we know:

He makes 15% comission on everything he sells

He sells a laptop for $293


To find out how much money Daniel makes in comission for the laptop, you need to calculate 15% of $293, which is the same thing as multiplying 15% by $293 :

15% × 293 = $

0.15 × 293 = $

43,95 = $


So your answer is: If Daniel sells a laptop for $293, he makes a comission of $43,95.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

PLEASE MAKE SURE HELP ME!
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

1. The first problem is wrong, it should be 0.5(3(15) + 2(20)) because the parentheses make sure that every purchased item is being divided by 2 (multiplying by 0.5 is the same as dividing by 2)

2. The second problem is partially correct. The first two answers you have checked are correct, but the last one is wrong. The third answer should be 6 + 12 instead because that's just a simplified version of 2(3) + 6(2), meaning they are equal

3. I cannot read your answers in the "Why or Why Not" column in the third problem, but the answers you gave in the "Evaluate" and "Does It Work?" columns are all correct.

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 26 mm. One leg of the right triangle is 10 mm. What is the length of the other leg? (4 poi
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

24 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a right triangle, we can use Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2

where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse.

We know one of the legs is 10, and the hypotenuse is 26, so we can substitute 10 in for a, and 26 in for c.

10^2+b^2=26^2

Solve the exponents

100+b^2=676

Now, solve for b. To do this, get b by itself.

First, subtract 100 from both sides

100-100+b^2=676-100

b^2=576

Take the square root of both sides

\sqrt{b^2}=\sqrt{576}

b=24

So, the other leg is 24 mm
