Choose the fraction that is greater than 5/9

Choose The Fraction That Is Greater Than 5/9

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  Choice D)   14/23 > 5/9

===========================================

Convert each fraction shown to decimal form

5/9 = 0.555557/16 = 0.43750  8/15 = 0.53333 6/11 = 0.54545 14/23 = 0.60870

With the exception of 7/16 = 0.43750, the other decimal values are approximate.

From that list, we can see the decimal representations of 7/16, 8/15, and 6/11 are all smaller than the decimal version of 5/9. So we rule out choices A, B, and C. The answer must be choice D.

Sure enough, 14/23 = 0.60870 is indeed larger than 5/9 = 0.55555

---------------------

We can show this another way:

First off, assume that 14/23 and 5/9 are equal. We'll cross multiply and show a contradiction happens

14/23 = 5/9

14*9 = 23*5

126 = 115

The contradiction happens since we should get the same value on both sides if the two sides were equal, but they're not equal.

If we replace each equal sign with a greater than sign, then we get,

14/23 > 5/9

14*9 > 23*5

126 > 115

You can think of it like working backwards up the chain.

Answer:

  C.  -2.00 m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

The average velocity on the interval [a, b] is found by ...

  m = (s(b) -s(a))/(b -a)

One end of the interval remains constant here, so we can define 'd' so that the interval is [4, 4+d]. Then the average velocity is ...

  m = (s(4 +d) -s(4))/((4 +d) -4)

  m = (s(4+d) -s(4))/d

The attached table shows the average velocity values on the intervals required by the problem statement. Respectively, they are ...

  -1.5 m/s, -1.7 m/s, -1.9 m/s, -1.99 m/s, 2.01 m/s, 2.1 m/s, 2.3 m/s, 2.5 m/s

We expect the instantaneous velocity at d=0 to be the average of the values at d=-0.01 and d=+0.01. We estimate the instantaneous velocity at t=4 seconds to be -2.00 m/s.

For the point on the y-axis, (0, 2), the translation is ...

A sample of students at a university took a test that diagnosed their learning styles as active or reflective and also as visual or verbal.

If the sample size was much larger, and the value of the sample correlation coefficient stayed the same, describe the impact on your test statistic, p-value, and conclusion.

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Sample size, n = 39

Correlation Coefficient, r = 0.273

The hypothesis test to examine if there is a positive correlation :

H0 : ρ = 0

If there is a positive correlation, then ρ greater than 1

H0 : ρ > 1

The test statistic :

T = r / √(1 - r²)/(n - 2)

T = 0.273 / √(1 - 0.273²)/(39 - 2)

T = 0.273 / 0.1581541

T = 1.726

The Pvalue using a Pvalue calculator can be be obtained using df = n - 2, df = 39 - 2 = 37

The Pvalue = 0.0463

α= .10 and α= .05

At α= .10

Pvalue < α ; Hence, we reject H0 and conclude that a positive correlation exists

At α= 0.05 ;

Pvalue < α ; Hence, we reject H0 and conclude that a positive correlation exists

The frequency n of vibration of a stretched string is a function of its tension F, the length l and the mass per unit length m. From the knowledge of dimensions, prove that, n∝1/l √f/m
Pls fast

Answers

Answer:

n ∝ (1/l) (√F/m)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since frequency, n of vibration of a stretched string is a function of its tension F, the length l and the mass per unit length m, and has dimensions [T]⁻¹ where T = time, its dimension must be equal to that of the combination of F, L and m

Since n = f(F,L,m)

n = kFᵃLᵇmˣ

dimension of n = (dimension of F)ᵃ × (dimension of L)ᵇ × (dimension of m)ˣ

Since n = frequency, dimension of n = [T]⁻¹

F = Force, dimension of F = [M][L][T]⁻²

Also, L = length, dimension of L = [L] and

m = mass per unit length, dimension of m = [M][L]⁻¹

So, n = FᵃLᵇmˣ

[T]⁻¹  = ([M][L][T]⁻²)ᵃ( [L] )ᵇ([M][L]⁻¹)ˣ

[T]⁻¹  = ([M]ᵃ[L]ᵃ[T]⁻²ᵃ[L]ᵇ([M]ˣ[L]⁻ˣ

[M]⁰[L]⁰[T]⁻¹  = ([M]ᵃ ⁺ˣ)([L]ᵃ ⁺ ᵇ ⁻ˣ)([T]⁻²ᵃ)

equating the exponents on both sides, we have

a + x = 0  (1 )⇒ x = -a

a + b - x = 0 (2) ⇒

-2a = -1 (3) ⇒ a = 1/2

Substituting x into 2, we have

a + b -(-a) = 0

a + b + a = 0

2a + b = 0

b = -2a

b = -2 (1/2)

b = -1

x = -a = -1/2

So, substituting the variables into n, we have

n = kFᵃLᵇmˣ

n = kFᵃLᵇmˣ

[tex]n = kF^{\frac{1}{2} }L^{-1}m^{-\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

n = k/l(√F/m)

n ∝ (1/l) (√F/m)

Answer:

16a^12 b^16

Step-by-step explanation:

that's the answer. just multiply out the powers

Answer:

16*(a^12)*(b^16)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we can split these term into three separate terms.

[tex]{(2 {a}^{3} {b}^{4})}^{4} = {2}^{4} \times {( {a}^{3}) }^{4} \times {( {b}^{4} )}^{4} [/tex]

2 to the power of 4 is 16.

[tex] {2}^{4} = 16[/tex]

As for the terms a and b, the two exponents can multiply with each other.

[tex] {( {a}^{3} )}^{4} = {a}^{(3 \times 4)} = {a}^{12} [/tex]

[tex] {( {b}^{4} )}^{4} = {b}^{(4 \times 4)} = {b}^{16} [/tex]

Now, we can directly multiply the values together by combining into one term.

Hence, the final answer is

[tex]16 {a}^{12} {b}^{16} [/tex]

Jim is the quarterback on his football team.
He was sacked 3 times during the game.
Each time he was sacked, the team lost 7
yards. What was the total number of yards
lost from the sacks?

Answers

Answer: 21 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 3 by 7 to find the number of years lost from the sacks because he was sacked 3 times and each time he lost 7 yards.

He lost 7 yards per sack , so in three sacks  he will lose 21 yards.

3* 7 = 21

The length of a rectangle is 3 cm more than its breadth. If the perimeter of the
rectangle is 46 cm, find the length and the breadth.

Answers

Answer:

breadth = 10 cm

length = 13 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

so,

perimeter = 46cm

2(l+b) = 46cm

or, 2(3+b+b) = 46cm ( because l = 3+b)

or, 2(3+2b) = 46cm

or, 6 + 4b = 46cm

or, 4b = 46cm - 6

or, 4b = 40cm

or, b = 40/4 cm

so, b = 10 cm

now,

l = 3cm + b

l = 3 cm + 10cm

= 13cm

Answer:

Let us assume the breadth of the rectangle be 'b' cm.

So length of the rectangle will be b+3 cm.

Now

Perimeter =46

[tex] \large \mid\orange {2(l + b) = 46}[/tex]

[tex] \large \mid\orange {2(b+3+b)=46}[/tex]

[tex] \large\mid \orange {2(2b+3) = 46}[/tex]

[tex] \large\mid \orange {4b + 6 = 46}[/tex]

[tex] \large \mid \orange{4b = 46 - 6}[/tex]

[tex] \large\mid \orange {4b = 40}[/tex]

Mary wants to buy candies with an amount of money she has in her pocket.  we know that if she had $3.20 more money she could buy 120 candies. While if she had $2.40 less money she could buy 85 candies. What is the price per candy?

Answers

Answer:

the price per candy is $0.16

and she has $16.00 in her pocket.

Step-by-step explanation:

x = the money in her pocket.

y = the price per candy

x + 3.2 = 120×y

x - 2.4 = 85×y

y = (x - 2.4)/85

=>

x + 3.2 = 120×(x - 2.4)/85 = (24x - 57.6)/17

=>

(17x + 17×3.2)/17 = (24x - 57.6)/17

17x + 54.4 = 24x - 57.6

54.4 = 7x - 57.6

112 = 7x

x = 16

y = (16 - 2.4)/85 = 13.6/85 = 0.16
