Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the mixed number into an improper fraction...
6 12/17 becomes 114/17
The definition of a rational number is any number a/b where b does not equal zero. 114/17 satisfies this requirement, so it is a rational number
Well I don't know !
Let's take a look and see:
The idea is that there could be more than one way
for a roll of the dice to land with the same number.
-- If the sum is from 1-4, you get the point.
There are 6 different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 1-4.
-- If the sum is from 5-8, Adam gets the point.
There are 20 different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 5-8.
-- If the sum is 9-12, Lana gets the point.
There are 10 different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 9-12.
-- The game is not fair to all three of you.
-- Lana has a distinct advantage over you.
-- Adam has a big advantage over Lana.
-- Adam has an even bigger advantage over you.
-- You are at a big disadvantage. (Notice that one of your
numbers ... 1 ... can never come up unless one of the dice
falls off of the table.)

Answer:
(64,86.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
find the case where he gets 70 and the case where he gets 79
if his average is 70:
(75+62+85+2x)/5=70
(222+2x)/5=70
222+2x=350
2x=128
x=64
if his average is 79:
(75+62+85+2x)/5=79
(222+2x)/5=79
222+2x=395
222+2x=395
2x=173
x=86.5
12 oz = 1.15
24 oz = 2.79
Let's see if 2x12oz is equal, less, or more than the 24oz.
1.15 x 2 = 2.30
2.30<2.79
The 12 oz is a better buy.
