He made his mistake in Step 2. Tom should have subtracted 4/8 instead of 1/8. The mistake is that he was not consistent when he multiplied Denominators (bottom number) must be the same when handling fractions so Tom must multiply both the numerator and denominator by the SAME number to balance it out. 1/2 x 4/4= 4/8. Subtract. 7/8 - 4/8= 3/8. Tom has 3/8 of a gallon of paint leftover.
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal then they would be the sides of 2 similar triangles.
Calculate the ratio of corresponding sides.
= 4
= 4
≠ 4
Thus the sides are not the corresponding sides of similar triangles.
Answer:
1) 6 balls
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of balls Elsa can shoot
x + 6 = number of balls Anna can shoot
18 = number of balls together they can shoot
x + (x + 6) = 18
x + x + 6 = 18
2x + 6 = 18
2x = 18 - 6
2x = 12
x = 6
2)2) 20x (3÷ 4)=90 120-90=30 thus left seat has 30 seating capacity.
3)Let x & y be packets of [a] type & [b] type detergent sold
Then 9x +7y =180
Let us say x=7
Then 9*7+7y =180
7y =180–63 = 117
y =117/7=19.2 this will not do as it contains decimal not whole number
Say x=6
Then 9*6 +7y =180
7y=180–54 =126
y =126/7 =18 this is acceptable as it is whole number
Answer: 6 packets of (a) and 18 packets of type (b) were sold to get 180Php
4) 5,6,7 female piglets
5)1kg. of rice is Php. 90.00 . Mang Tommy pays Php.360.00 for 4kg. of rice.
4kg of rice - Php. 360.00
3kg of pork- Php. 390.00
1kg of rice is Php. 90.00
1kg of pork is Php. 130.00
Answer:
c = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
"10 is 8% of a": 0.08a = 10, or <u>a = (10/0.08)</u>
"5 is 4% of b": 0.04b = 5, or <u>b = (5/0.04)</u>
"c equals b/a": c = (b/a)
----
What is the value of c?
c = (b/a)
c = ((5/0.04)/(10/0.08))
c = (5/0.04)*(0.08/10)
c = (5/10)*(0.08/0.04)
c = (1/2)*(2)
<u>c = 1</u>
Answer:
the cost of talking for 15 minutes would be $1.5
15x0.1=1.5
for $50 you could talk for 500 minutes.
50/0.1=500
double check, 500x0.1=50
