Abdullah and Kanna are working on the same problem.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leona [35]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Abdullah is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottle contained originally 12 fl oz, so 12 fl oz is 100%.

The box now contains 20% more, so now it contains 120% of 12 fl oz.

120% * 12 fl oz = 1.2 * 12 fl oz = 14.4 fl oz

Also, 20% is 1/5. Abdullah divided 12 oz into 5 equal parts, and then he added one more 1/5. He interpreted the problem correctly. The amount in the new bottle is the amount of the old bottle plus 20% of that old amount.

Kanna considers the original amount to be 80%. When he adds another 20%, he is adding 1/4 of 12 which is too much. That is why he gets an incorrect answer that is to high. He interpreted the problem incorrectly. For him, the old bottle has 20% less than the new bottle. That is incorrect.

Abdullah is correct.

Solve the equation using the order of operations.<br><br> 5+{2×[(5−1)+6]}÷4
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The order of operations is PEMDAS

First step is to do everything is parenthesis or brackets

5+{2*[(5-1)+6]}/4

{2*[(5-1)+6]}

First you would go 5-1=4, because that is the first equation that is in parenthesis by itself.

{2*[4+6]}

Next you would go 4+6=10, because that is your next smallest bracket

{2*10}

Last you would go 2*10=20

Your equation now looks like this

5+{20}/4

In PEMDAS your next step is exponents, but we don't have any so we go on to the next one which is multiply/division

5+5

You would go 20/4=5

Last step is to add/subtract

5+5=10

Your final answer would be 10

Hope this helps ;)

In 3 apples cost 48¢ , how many dozen apples can be bougth for $3.84?
Law Incorporation [45]

1 dozen = 12 apples.

3 apples cost 0.48, multiply that by 4 to get the price of 1 dozen.

0.48 x 4 = $1.92 per dozen.


Divide the total you can spend ( 3.84) by cost per dozen:


3.48 / 1.92 = 2


You can buy 2 dozen.

Find the asymptotes of the function. Select all that apply.
devlian [24]

An asymptote is a vertical horizontal or oblique line to which the graph of a function progressively approaches without ever touching it.

To answer this question we observe the graph. All the values of x and y must be identified for which the graph of the function tends to infinity.

It is observed that these values are:

x = -1

x = 3

y = 0

The first two corresponds to the equations of a vertical line. The third corresponds to horizontal line, the axis of x. It can be seen that although the graph of the function is very close to these values, it never "touches" them
