You have to make a tape diagram and divide it in to 9 parts because it is 5 out of 9 then you will make a bracket pointing to only 4 parts of the tape diagram then you do 36/9 and it will equal 4 so put 4 in to each part and so 4 x 4 is 16 so the answer is 16 people prefer historical books

You could draw it out such as: x   x   x   x   x   x   x   x   x
                                             x   x   x   x   x   x   x   x   x
                                             x   x   x   x   x   x   x   x   x
                                             x   x   x   x   x   x   x   x   x

Now you have nine groups of 4 which equals 36
Now 5/9 would be five of the nine groups.  Each group have 4 students so 4 x 5 = 20 students like Adventure books.  Then take 36 - 20 = 16, which means 16 students like historical books.

Answer:

The ordered pairs (3 , 6) , (5 , 10) show a proportional relationship ⇒ last answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to sole the problem

- Proportional relationship describes a simple relation between

 two variables

- In direct proportion if one variable increases, then the other variable

 increases and if one variable decreases, then the other variable

 decreases

- In inverse proportion if one variable increases, then the other variable

 decreases and if one variable decreases, then the other variable

 increases

- The ratio between the two variables is always constant

- Ex: If x and y are in direct proportion, then x = ky, where k

 is constant

 If x and y in inverse proportion, then x = k/y, where k is constant

* Lets solve the problem

# Last table

∵ x = 3 and y = 6

∴ x/y = 3/6 = 1/2

∵ x = 5 and y = 10

∴ x/y = 5/10 = 1/2

∵ 1/2 is constant

∵ x/y = constant

∴ x and y are proportion

* The ordered pairs (3 , 6) , (5 , 10) show a proportional relationship

How do I get from: <br>Sin x = -1/2<br>To: x = 7Pi/6, 11Pi/6
brilliants [131]
A few ways. you can enter it into a calculator for one, but the easiest way would be to reference a unit circle and look for an ordered pair where sin (the y value), is equal to -1/2

on a unit circle, the sin value is -1/2 at 7pi/6 and 11pi/6

because sin is the y value, it will additionally be in the quadrants III or IV based on the fact that (-1/2) as a sin value IS a negative and would have to be found in a quadrant in which sin is negative (the lower half of a coordinate plane, in this case)

If 2/3 + p = 1 and 4/5+ q = 3, what is the value of p+q?
inessss [21]

Answer:

p+q = 38/15

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3+p = 1. p = 1 - 2/3

4/5 + q = 3. q = 3 - 4/5

p + q = 1 - 2/3 + 3 - 4/5

-2/3 - 4/5 (common denominator = 15)

4 - 10/15 - 12/15 = 4 - 22/15

4 - 22/15 = (4*15 - 22)/15

= 38/15
