Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Glenn needs to cut pieces of ribbon that are each 1 meter long to make ribbon key chains. If he has 6 pieces of ribbon that are each 1 dekameter long, how many 1−meter pieces of ribbon can he cut?

1 decametre = 10 metres

Hence,

10 meters = 6 pieces of ribbon

1 meter = x pieces

Cross Multiply

10x = 6

x = 6/10

x = 2/3 (1 meter pieces of ribbon)

Fred's sporting goods is providing a $5 discount on a bicycle that costs $80. What is the percentage of the discount?
Sonja [21]

Answer:

6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

discount/ normal price

5/80

And we are trying to find out the percentage, so

x/100

Set the 2 equations equal to each other

5/80=x/100

Cross multiply

80x=500

Divide by 80 on both sides

x= 6.25

I got c which is 100 but I don’t know how jerry got A
Anna007 [38]

Choice C is the correct answer because

\frac{(6+2)^3-12}{5}\\\\\frac{(8)^3-12}{5}\\\\\frac{512-12}{5}\\\\\frac{500}{5}\\\\100\\\\

So in short, \frac{(6+2)^3-12}{5}=100\\\\

------------------------------------------

The mistake Jerry likely made was that he only cubed the 2 and didn't realize the 6 was part of that cubing process. It seems he didn't add first and decided to cube before adding.

This is probably what steps Jerry did

\frac{6+2^3-12}{5}\\\\\frac{6+8-12}{5}\\\\\frac{14-12}{5}\\\\\frac{2}{5}\\\\

But as mentioned, those steps are incorrect because the 6 is part of the cubing operation. In other words, Jerry should have added the 6+2 first before cubing afterward (due to PEMDAS determining the order of operations).

Or you could think of it like this

\frac{(6+2)^3-12}{5}\\\\\frac{(6+2)(6+2)(6+2)-12}{5}\\\\\frac{(8)(8)(8)-12}{5}\\\\\frac{512-12}{5}\\\\\frac{500}{5}\\\\100
