Answer:
5/6 is greater
Step-by-step explanation:
First obtain a common denominator for the fractions. Multiply the denominator of one fraction to the denominator of another and that is the denominator for the new fractions (54). Then multiply the denominator of one fraction to the numerator of the other one to obtain the new numerator. (e.g. 5*9=45 so 5/6 ->45/54) do this to the other fraction and you will see that 7/9 -> 42/54 and 45/54 is greater than 42/54 so 5/6 is greater .
Answer:
Adam needs 9/8 of a 5oz serving of shrimps (which equals to 5.625 oz) and 5/8 of a cup of brown rice (which is around 10 tablespoons).
Explanation:
You are given:
every serving of shrimp contains 2g of fat and 5mg of iron;
every serving of rice contains 6g of fat and 7mg of iron;
each meal should have 6g of total fat and 10mg of total iron.
You need to set a system of equation: let's call
s = quantity of shrimps
r = quantity of rice
The equation for the total fat will be: the quantity of fat in the serving of shrimps plus the quantity of fat in the serving of rice must be equal to 6g
2s + 6r = 6 (1)
Similarily:
the quantity of iron in the serving of shrimps plus the quantity of iron in the serving of rice must be equal to 10g
5s + 7r = 10 (2)
In order to solve the system, solve for s in equation (1):
s = (6-6r)/2 = 3 - 3r (3)
Substitute in equation (2):
5(3 - 3r) + 7r = 10
and solve for r:
15 - 15r + 7r = 10
8r = 5
r = 5/8
Substitute the value of r in equation (3):
s = 3 - 3×5/8 = 9/8
Therefore Adam would need 9/8 of a 5oz serving of shrimps and 5/8 of a 1 cup of brown rice for each meal.
Answer:4(2x+14)=0
Step-by-step explanation:4 (2x+14)=0
8x+56=0
-56 -56
8x=-56
8x/8=-56/8
x=-8

Answer:
14/20
Explanation:
Sasha tried to get a marble 20 times. 14 of those times she got a yellow marble.
The experimental probability, which is the probability of choosing a yellow marble when Sasha actually tries choosing marbles from the bag.
The theoretical probability is based on the chance that Sasha will get a yellow marble, 7/70, is from the amount of marbles in the bag of yellow colour.
