3/4 divided by 1/3 = 3/4 * 3/1 = 9/4 = 2 1/4 <-------reason

Sun Yi can cut out 2 pieces.

Sun Yi will have 1/4 left.

Answer: The greatest number she can cut from is 2 pieces.

And the length of ribbon would be left after cutting is $\dfrac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of a ribbon = $\dfrac{3}{4}$

Length of piece for an art project = $\dfrac{1}{3}$

So, the greatest number of piece measuring $\dfrac{1}{3}$ meter that can be cut from the ribbon is given by

$\dfrac{3}{4}\div \dfrac{1}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{4}\times \dfrac{3}{1}\\\\=\dfrac{9}{4}\\\\=2\dfrac{1}{4}$

So, the greatest number she can cut from is 2 pieces.

And the length of ribbon would be left after cutting is $\dfrac{1}{4}$

What is y=x-4 2x+y=5

ahrayia [7]

If you would like to solve y = x - 4 and 2 * x + y = 5, you can do this using the following steps:

y = x - 4
2 * x + y = 5
_____________
2 * x + (x - 4) = 5
2 * x + x = 5 + 4
3 * x = 9 /3
x = 9 / 3
x = 3

y = x - 4 = 3 - 4 = -1

The correct result would be x = 3 and y = -1.

I am doing with Question Number 2

Let the two numbers be 'x' and 'y'.

According to the question, the product of two numbers is 14.

$x \times y=14$

So, xy=14 (Equation 1)

Now, one of the numbers is 3 ½ times the other.

So, $x = 3\frac{1}{2}\times y$

$x=\frac{7}{2}y$ (Equation 2)

Substituting the value of 'x' from equation 2 in equation 1, we get

$\frac{7}{2}y \times y = 14$

$\frac{7}{2}y^{2} = 14$

$y^{2} = 4$

So, y= 2 and -2

So, $x=\frac{14}{2}$ and $x=\frac{14}{-2}$

x=7 and -7

Numbers are 2,7 and -2,-7.

Sum of numbers 2 and 7 = 9

Sum of numbers -2 and -7 = -9.

Marcos had 15 coins in nickels and quarters. He had 3 more quarters than nickels. He wrote a system of equations to represent th

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

There are 6 coins in nickels and 9 coins in quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, to find the solution.

According to question:

The number of nickels = $x$ .

The number of quarters = $y.$

So, the total number of coins:

$x+y=15.$

He had 3 more quarters than nickels.

Thus,

$y=x+3$ .....(1)

Now, to get the solution:

$x+y=15$

Substituting the equation (1):

$x+(x+3)=15$

$x+x+3=15$

$2x+3=15$

<em>Subtracting both sides by 3 we get:</em>

<em /> $2x=12$ <em />

<em>Dividing both sides by 2 we get:</em>

$x=6.$

<em>The number of nickels = 6.</em>

Now, substituting the value of $x$ in equation (1):

$y=x+3\\\\y=6+3\\\\y=9.$

<em>The number of quarters = 9.</em>

Thus, there are 6 coins in nickels and 9 coins in quarters.

lidiya [134]

Answer:

a.H0: μ =530mL vs. Ha: μ > 530mL

Step-by-step explanation:

-A hypothesis test will be used to provide evidence that the median is more or equal to the stated median value.

#In a normally distributed population, the mean=mode=median:

$Mean=Mode=Median=\mu$

-The null hypothesis states that the median is equal to the stated value:

$H_o:\mu=530 \ mL$

-The alternative hypothesis provides evidence that the median value is greater than the stated value:

$H_a:\mu>530\ mL$

Hence, the correct hypotheses are H0: μ =530mL vs. Ha: μ > 530mL
