I have 20 books. Some are English and some are French. If 15 books are French, what fraction of books are in English?

1 answer:

6 0

15/20 are French so 5/20 are English
Simplified that’s 1/4
Only applies if all the books are either English or French
I think

Answer:

y+2=2/3(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=2/3(x-3)

How can you use 4x7 to find 8x7?

max2010maxim [7]

4 x 7 is 28, and 8 x 7 is 56. You can use 4 x 7 to find 8 x 7 by multiplying that first and doubling that quotient.

Half of 56 is 28, therefore doubling that allows us to find the quotient of 8 x 7.

I need help please can someone help

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

A 6 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the Surface Area of a Rectangle Prism and Square Prism [Cube] is below:

S.A = 2hw + 2bw + 2hb

Since 1 is the length of all edges, and also because all edges are congruent on a cube, you plug in 1 for the <em>height</em>, <em>width</em><em>,</em><em> </em>and<em> </em><em>base</em>:

6 = 2[1][1] + 2[1][1] + 2[1][1]

2 2 2

Or, you can just simply plug in 1 into the formula the exercise gave you and be done with it.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

Find the coordinates of the missing endpoint if P is the midpoint of Line Segment NQ.

dimaraw [331]

Midpoint formula is $(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$ .

So starting with this one, we will be solving for the coordinates of the unknown endpoint separately. Starting with the x-coordinate, since we know that the midpoint x-coordinate is 5 and the x-coordinate of N is 2, our equation is set up as such: $\frac{x+2}{2}=5$ From here we can solve for the x-coordinate of Q.

Firstly, multiply both sides by 2: $x+2=10$

Next, subtract both sides by 2 and your x-coordinate is $x=8$

With finding the y-coordinate, it's a similar process as with the x-coordinate except that we are using the y-coordinates of the midpoint and endpoint N.

$\frac{y+0}{2}=2\\ y=4$
