did Jeffrey grow than his brother?
Simplify your answer and write it as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Jeffrey grew 1/8 inch more than his brother

Step-by-step explanation:

5/8 - 1/2 = 5/8 - 4/8 = 1/8

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] [tex]or[/tex] [tex]1.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = [tex]?[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] = [tex]0.625[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = [tex]0.5[/tex]

[tex]\frac{0.625}{0.5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

A wire 4 1/2 feet long is being cut into smaller pieces of wire, each 11/4 feet long. What is the maximum number of the smaller pieces of wire that can be cut from the original piece of wire?

Answers

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Take 4 1/2 and turn it into just halves by multiplying 4•2 and then adding it to one. 9/2 then multiply that by 2 because you need the denominator to be 4 getting 18/4. Then subtract 11/4 you end up getting 9/4. So technically you have 2 pieces but if you want them both to be 11/4 you only have one

Answers

How do you round to the ones place?

Look to the next smallest place value, the digit to the right of the place value you're rounding to. For example, if you want to round to the nearest ten you'd look at the ones place. If the digit in the next smallest place value is less than five (0, 1, 2, 3, or 4), you leave the digit you want to round to as-is.

A local grocery store decides to offer a free piece of fresh fruit (banana or apple) to all shoppers in the produce department. The store is conducting an observational study to determine which type of fruit is selected more often. At the end of the first day, the store found that twice as many shoppers select an apple.
The grocery store then repeats the observational study for 14 days. All studies yield similar results. What generalization can be made from the results of this study?

A.
Given the choice of a banana or an apple, twice as many shoppers will select an apple.
B.
The results are inconclusive; therefore, a generalization cannot be made regarding which type of fruit is preferred by most shoppers.
C.
There is not enough information to generalize the study’s results.
D.
Given the choice of any type of fruit, twice as many shoppers will select an apple.

Answers

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the results are similar (A) should be your answer!

Option A is correct.

What is generalization?

Generalization is a process which leads to something more general and whose product consequently refers refers to an actual or potential manifold  in a certain way.

According to the given question

"At the end of the first day, the store found that twice as many shoppers select an apple"

So, the generalization can be made from the above result is " from the given choice of a banana or an apple, twice as many shoppers will select an apple".

Hence, option A is correct.

Find the slope and y-intercept of the line in each graph. (Explore Activity 1) Please help me

Answers

Answer:

1. Slope = -2 , y-intercept = 1

2. Slope = 5 , y-intercept = -15

3. Slope = 1.5 , y-intercept = -2

4. Slope = -3 , y-intercept = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The slope is -2 because using the formula y₁-y₂÷x₁-x₂ you can use the points given to you to get -2. It doesn't matter which one you pick as y1 or y2, just make sure you keep it consistent with the x numberings. I did 1--3 (which becomes 1+3) and 0-2. Those equal 4/-2 which gives you -2. Use these same steps for all of them, but with ones that don't have the points given, just pick two that are whole numbers and not decimals. For finding the y-intercept, just find the point that is on the y axis line. It is given on number one as (0,1). So, the y-intercept is 1. Hope this helps!

when nicky tried to solve an equation using properties of equality, she ended up with the equation -3=-3. what equation mioght she have tried to solve? what is the solution of the equation?

Answers

Answer: -3 + 4*x^2 = - 3 + (2*x)^2

Any value of x is a solution for this eqution.

Step-by-step explanation:

She ended with -3 = -3

This is trivial, if we had an equation with one variable, something like:

f(x) = equation.

Ending with something like -3 = -3 means that we do not have any restriction with respect to x, so x could take any value.

This will happen if the terms with x in the left side are exactly the same as the terms in the right side, for exampe:

-3 + 4*x^2 = -3 + 4*x^2

In that case, we can substrrat 4*x^2 in both sides, and we will end with:

-3 = -3

This means that the solution for this equation is any value of x.

We also could rewrite this as:

-3 + 4*x^2 = - 3 + (2*x)^2

So the terms look different, but the terms are exactly the same for any value of x.

The slope of the line y - 4x = -2 is 4.
False
O True

Answers

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the problem in slope intercept i.e y = mx + b. Add 4x to both sides to create y = 4x -2.  Any number or fraction in the m part is the slope. So the slope is 4.

True, the slope of the line y - 4x = -2 is 4.

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form with slope m is,

y = mx + c

Where 'c' is the y-intercept of the line.

Given that,

The equation of a line is,

y - 4x = - 2

Now it can be written in a slope-intercept form as,

y - 4x = - 2

Add 4x on both sides,

y - 4x + 4x = - 2 + 4x

y = 4x - 2

By comparing with slope - intercept of the equation,

Slope (m) = 4

Therefore, the statement is true.

Answers

Answer:

C. 498

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of words typed by both Mark and Carol is 498.

Rate of typing by Mark = 20 word per minute

Rate of typing by Carol = 22 words per minute

Since, Mark starts typing at 1:00 pm  and stop at 1:15 pm.

So, time taken by Mark is 15 minute.

number of words typed by  Mark = [tex]20*15=300[/tex]

Since, Carol starts typing 6 min late , i.e.  at 1:06 pm  and stop at 1:15 pm.

To find:

The additional information that can be included in the figure showing kite ABCD with  diagonals AC and BD.

Solution:

We know that, a quadrilateral is a kite if,

1. Two pairs of congruent sides which are adjacent to each other.

2. One diagonal is perpendicular bisector of other.

From the given information, we have two pairs of consecutive congruent sides AB=BC and AD=CD.

ABCD is a kite if it holds the second property, i.e., one diagonal is perpendicular bisector of other.

So, the required additional information is "segment BD is perpendicular bisector of segment AC".

Therefore, the correct option is B.
