800/100 = 8
800 is 100 times as much as 8
Vertical line is a way to determine whether a functin is a function or not.
To multiply a whole number by a fraction less than one, you have to rewrite the whole number in the expression as a fraction by putting a one under it.
For example, in 10 x 2/5, you would rewrite the 10 to 10/1 x 2/5.
Then, you would multiply the top and bottom of the two fractions. In this case, it would be 10 x 2 and 1x5. This would result in 20/5.
Finally, you would simplify this fraction by dividing. The final answer is 4.
Answer: Area = 6m²
Smaller number = 16
Hours = 9.6 h
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.
1) w = x m 2) w = x + 1 m
l = x + 5 m l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m
A₁ = A₂
A = w*l
A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x
A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2
A₁ = A₂
x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2
5x - 3x = 2
2x = 2
x = 1
A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²
The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.
<u> 2 </u> = <u> x </u>
5 40
5x = 80
x = 80/5 = 16
Sixteen construction workers can finish cementing a floor of a building in 3 hours. On a certain day, only 5 construction workers are available for the job. How long will it take the 5 construction workers to do the cementing job?
workers hours
16 3
5 x
↑ ↓ inversely proportional
<u> 5 </u> = <u> 3 </u>
16 x
5x = 16*3
5x = 48
x = 48/5
x = 9.6 h
