It’s easier if you turn the fractions into decimals and arrange them in order from biggest to smallest. 3/4= 0.75, 5/6= 0.83, 7/9= 0.77, 1/2= 0.5, 2/3= 0.66, 7/12= .583, 15/24= 0.625. Then obviously, you order them from biggest to smallest:
0.83 (5/6), 0.77 (7/9), 0.75 (3/4), 0.66 (2/3), 0.583 (7/12), 0.5 (1/2).
Answer:
z = 8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
10- 3/4z = 8
Subtract 10 from each side
10-10- 3/4z = 8-10
-3/4z = -2
Multiply each side by -4/3
-3/4z * -4/3 = -2 *4/3
z = 8/3
X=1 Hopefully that helped
The hotel is $250 plus $25 per person so the equation would be
y= 25x + 250
(Y is the total cost and x is the number of people)
the restaurant is $100 plus $40 per person so the equation would be
y = 40x + 100
What we want to know is which x value would make the y values equal to each other. So you can just replace the "y" in one equation with the other equation:
25x + 250 = 40x + 100
and then solve...
1. subtract 100 from both sides
25x + 150 = 40x
2. subtract 25x from both sides
150 = 15 x
3. divide both sides by 15
10 = x
you can check by plugging 10 into the original equations
25(10) + 250
250 + 250 = 500
and
40(10) + 100
400 + 100 = 500
they both cost $500 when you invite 10 people
I think it would be true because they are crossing
