Carrie found the difference 11/12 -- 2/3. she said * i found a common denominator 12,then subtracted the numerators to get 9/12* is carrie correct? Explain why she is or not correct.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She isn't correct because after you find the common denominator, the numerator needs to be changed as well, so when she multiplied the denominator of 2/3 by 4 to get 12, she also had to multiply the 2 by 4, to get 8/12, and then subtracted, because otherwise, the new fraction isn't equivalent to the original fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number gets increased by scale factor = k

Then k > 1

If the number gets decreased by a scale factor 'k'

Then 0 < k < 1

Let numbers gets increased by the scale factor = 2,

And decreased by the scale factor = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Which expression is equivalent to 2.8n – 8.4?

Answers

Answer:

4.1n

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation n – 4.6n – 3.3n + 2.8n , to get its equivalent expression, the following steps must be followed;

Step 1:

Factor out the common variable n

n(1 – 4.6 – 3.3 + 2.8)

Step 2:

Carry out the operation in parentheses;

= n(1+2.8-4.6-3.3)

= n(3.8-4.6-3.3)

= n(3.8-3.3-4.6)

= n(0.5-4.6)

= n(-4.1)

= -4.1n

The equivalent expression is -4.1n

Answer:

(x+1)²= 49, the answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 2x = 48

x² + 2x + (2/2)² -  (2/2)²= 48 --[what we are trying to do is to complete a square by adding (2/2)² -  (2/2)²]

(x+1)²= 49, the answer is B

You have found two job offers for the beginning of the summer. Each job is only 10 days long. Job Offer #1: The offer is to receive $0.25 for accepting the job. After day one you have made a total of $1, $4 total after two days of work, $16 total after three days, etc. Job Offer #2: The offer is $16 per day with no acceptance bonus. Write an equation to represent Job Offer #1 and Write an equation to represent Job Offer #2

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(n) = \frac{4^n-0.25}{3}[/tex] --- Job offer 1

[tex]g(n) = 16n[/tex] --- Job offer 2

[tex]1 \le n \le 10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Job offer 1:

Offer = $0.25

[tex]Day 1 = \$1\ Day 2 = \$4\ Day 3 = \$16......[/tex]

Job offer 2:

Daily = $16

Required

Determine the equation for both jobs

For job offer 1:

Considering the pay for day 1, day 2,....

The sequence shows a geometry progression where the payment between subsequent days is a product of 4 by the payment of the previous day.

The sequence can be represented as:

[tex]T_1 = 1; T_2 = 4; T_3 = 16[/tex]

The common ratio (r) is:

[tex]r = \frac{T_2}{T_1} = \frac{4}{1} = 4[/tex]

The sum of n terms is the total salary received in n days.

[tex]S_n = \frac{a(r^n - 1)}{r-1}[/tex]

[tex]S_n = \frac{1 * (4^n - 1)}{4-1}[/tex]

[tex]S_n = \frac{4^n - 1}{3}[/tex]

So, the equation for job offer 1 is:

[tex]f(n) = Offer + S_n[/tex]

[tex]f(n) = 0.25+ \frac{4^n - 1}{3}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]f(n) = \frac{0.75 + 4^n - 1}{3}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]f(n) = \frac{4^n - 1+0.75}{3}[/tex]

[tex]f(n) = \frac{4^n-0.25}{3}[/tex]

For job offer 2:

Daily payment of $16 implies that job offer 2 pays 16n for n days.

So:

[tex]g(n) = 16n[/tex]

In both cases: [tex]1 \le n \le 10[/tex]

Lucy bought a fish tank shaped like a rectangular prism for her new betta fish. The tank holds 2,244 cubic inches of water. It is 12 inches long and 11 inches wide.

Answers

Answer:

The length of the fish tank is 17 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is length × breadth × height.

You already know the volume, breadth, and height, so you can find the length.

Length = 2244 ÷ 12 ÷ 11

            = 17 inches

The height of the tank is 17 inches.

What is Volume?

Volume of a three dimensional shape is the space occupied by the shape.

Given that,

The shape of the fish tank is rectangular prism.

The formula to calculate the volume of the rectangular prism is,

Volume = Length × Width × height

Given,

Volume of the tank = 2,244 cubic inches

Length = 12 inches

Width = 11 inches

Let x be the height.

Substituting the given values,

2,244 = 12 × 11 × x

x = 2244 / (12 × 11)

x = 2244 / 132

x = 17 inches

Hence the height of the tank is 17 inches.

The ratio of boys to girls taking geometry this year is 27:31. If 246 students are ebrolled in geometry this year, approximately how many of them are boys and how many of them are girls?

Answers

Answer:

115 boys

131 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

The given ratio= 27:31

The sum of the ratio = 27+31= 58

The total number of students taking geometry= 246

Let us apply the part to all method

let the number of boys be x

27/58= x/246

cross multiply

58*x= 246*27

58x=6642

x= 6642/58

x=114.5

Hence the number of boys is 115

Thefore, the number of girsl= 246-115= 131
