Answer:

32 bottles

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, we have to divide 8 by 1/4 to see how many of those 1/4-liter bottles can be filled with 8 liters of water. So, let's go ahead and see how this looks mathematically, then we'll start simplifying:

\frac{8}{1} ÷ \frac{1}{4}

Dividing by a fraction is the same as <em>multiplying by that same fraction's reciprocal</em>, so we can rearrange our math to make things easier.

\frac{8}{1} × \frac{4}{1}

Now, we can multiply the numerators and the denominators.

\frac{8}{1} × \frac{4}{1} = \frac{32}{1} =32

So 32 of those 1/4 liter bottles can be filled from a jug containing 8 liters of water. Hopefully this was helpful! If anything was confusing or didn't make sense, let me know so I can make things clearer. :)

Find an equation of the line passing through the given points (1,-3) and (3,3)
chubhunter [2.5K]

ANSWER: y= 3x - 6

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

(1,-3) and (3,3)

X1=1           X2=3

Y1= - 3       Y2=3

1) Find the slope of the line.

To find the slope of the line passing through these two points we need to use the slope  formula:

m = \frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}

m= \frac{3-(-3)}{3-1}   m=\frac{6}{2} = 3

2)Use the slope to find the y-intercept.

Now that we know the slope of the line is 3 we can plug the slope into the equation and  we get:

y= 3x+b

Next choose one of the two point to plug in for the values of x and y. It does not matter  which one of the two points you choose because you should get the same answer in either  case. I generally just choose the first point listed so I don’t have to worry about which  one I should choose.

y= 3x+b       point (1,-3)

-3= 3(1) + b

-3-3=b

-6=b

3)Write the answer.

Using the slope of 3 and the y-intercept of -6 the answer is:

y = 3x - 6

What is -4/5+ 7/15 when you simplify ?
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: -\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

When you add fractions with different denominators, you need to find the Least common denominator (LCD):

Descompose the denominators (5 and 15) into its prime factors and then choose the commons and non-commons with the highest exponents:

5=5*1\\15=3*5\\\\LCD=5*3*1=15

Divide the LCD by each original denominator of each fraction and multiply the result by each original numerator of each fraction. After this, you can add the numerators and reduce the fraction.

Then:

-\frac{4}{5}+\frac{7}{15}=\frac{-(4)(3)+7(1)}{15}=\frac{-12+7}{15}=\frac{-5}{15}=-\frac{1}{3}

Two cards are chosen from a standard deck of 52 playing cards without replacement. What is the probability that the first card i
Rashid [163]

For the first draw, the probability of an ace is ( 4 / 52 ).

Now there are only 51 cards left in the deck.

For the second draw, the probability of a king is  ( 4 / 51 ).

The probability of both events is

(4/52) (4/41) = (16/2,652)

Divide top and bottom by 4:

(16/2,652) = <em>4/663</em> .  That's <em>choice-C </em>.

How can i make 0.48 into a fraction
lubasha [3.4K]
If you want to know how, i'll tell you. 0.48 is .48 hundredths. So you put your fraction like this: 48/100 because the decimal is 0.48. 48/100 can be simplified to 12/25 because the GCF is 4 or can both be divisible by 4. I hope this answers your question.
