What fraction benchmark is .58 closest to?

Mathematics
1 answer:
NikAS [45]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, since we aren't given any options, there isn't a limit to what it is.

But, assuming you said fraction benchmark it has to be somewhere between 1/2 2/3 3/4 etc.

Now, we can convert the fractions to their equivalent decimal form

1/2 = 0.5

2/3 = 0.66 repeating.

3/4 = 0.75

Now, we can see that 0.58 is 8 units away from 0.66

We can see that it is also 8 units away from 0.5.

But, seeing to that 2/3 is 0.66 with a ton of sixes, it would in theory be away by 8.66 compared to 8 from 0.5

Therefore, we get the closest benchmark is 1/2 (0.5)

maks197457 [2]
The answer would be B because in the question it says the price tripled (3x) and that it rose another $0.75 (+0.75). It also says at least $4.50, meaning it could be 4.50 or more than 4.50. So, it's
3x + 0.75 \geqslant 4.50

mamaluj [8]

Remark

You know the most about the trip on the way back and the total of the two trips.

Way Back

r = 30 mph

d = distance traveled

t = t - 1 where t = the time to go there which we know nothing about

Total Distance

2d = 25 mph * (t + t - 1)

2d = 25 * (2t - 1)

2d = 50t  - 25                 Divide by 2

2d = 50t/2 - 25/2

d = 25t - 12.5

Equation coming back

d = 30*(t - 1)

d = 30t - 30

Comment

Since the distances are the same, equate them.

Solution

25t - 12.5 = 30t - 30                     Subtract 25t from both sides

25t - 25t -12.5 = 30t - 25t - 30   Combine like terms

-12.5 = 5t - 30                              Add 30 to both sides

-12.5 + 30 = 5t - 30 + 30             Combine

17.5 = 5t                                       Divide by 5

17.5/5 = t                                      Divide and Switch

t = 3.5

t is the time going there

t - 1 is the time coming back

Total time = 2*t - 1 = 2*3.5 - 1 = 6

The total time is 6 hours.   Answer

The above rollercoaster graph needs a function to go with it. Select the
MrRissso [65]

The values that correctly models the scenario of the rollercoaster graph will be:

  • Red (x) = 6 + 4 × cos(πx/6) if 0 ≤ x < 6
  • Green (x) = -2.5 × cos(π(x - 6)/4) + 4.5
  • Purple (x) = 3.5 - 3.5 × sin(π(x - 12.5)/5)

<h3>How does the graph model the situation</h3>

From the complete question,

For Red (x) = 6 + 4 × cos(πx/6) if 0 ≤ x < 6

where at x = 0, Red(x) = 10,

at x = 5, Red(x) = 2.5

For Green (x) = -2.5 × cos(π(x - 6)/4) + 4.5       if    6 ≤ x < 10

where at x = 10, Green (x) = 7,

at x = 6, Green (x) = 2.0

For Purple (x) = 3.5 - 3.5 × sin(π(x - 12.5)/5) if 10 ≤ x ≤ 15

where at x = 10, Purple (x) = 7,

at x = 15, Purple (x) = 0

I need this solved! FAST! thank you
Oliga [24]

Answer:

140

Step-by-step explanation:

4 * 4 =16

Right triangle is 10 because 5 *4=10

9 * 9 = 81

7*5=35

16 + 10 + 81 + 35= 142

142 rounded to the nearest ten is 140
