. Use the drop-down menus to explain why Joshua and Melanie are both correct.

a whole number by a unit fraction is the same as multiplying a whole number by the of the unit fraction.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A whole number divided by a unit fraction is the same as multiplying a whole number by the inverse of the unit fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]8 \div \frac{1}{5} = 40[/tex]

[tex]8 * 5 = 40[/tex]

Required

Explain why both expressions are correct

No dropdown to select from. So, I will provide a general solution.

When a number is divided by a fraction.

Take for instance:

[tex]8 \div \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

The above can be expressed as the product of the number and the inverse of the fraction.

The inverse of 1/5 is 5.

So, we have:

[tex]8 \div \frac{1}{5} = 8 * 5[/tex]

The result of the above expression is:

[tex]8 \div \frac{1}{5} = 8 * 5 = 40[/tex]

Answer: 602.88

Step-by-step explanation:

2πr^2+2πrh

2(3.14)(8)^2+2(3.14)(8)(4)

2(3.14)(64)+2(3.14)(32)

2(200.96)+2(100.48)

401.92+200.96

602.88

SA(surface area)

SA = 2xh + 2pi * r ^ 2

SA = 2pi * (8) * (4) + 2pi * r ^ 2

SA = 2pi * (32) + 2pi * (8 ^ 2)

SA = 2pi * (32) + 2pi * (64)

SA = pi(64) + pi(128)

SA = pi(192)

SA = 603.19 ft ^ 2

Answers

Answer:

D) 27

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a rectangle so the opposite sides are congruent to each other.

Long Side:

6x + 6 = 42

subtract 6 from both sides:

6x = 36

divide both sides by 6:

x = 6

Short Side:

5y + 5 = 30

subtract 5 from both sides:

5y = 25

divide both sides by 5:

y = 5

The Equation:

2x + 3y

substitute in the values:

2(6) + 3(5)

do the multiplication:

12 + 15

add the values together:

Answer:

--Educate the general public about activities that can lead to the spread of invasive species.

--Implement conservation methods to restore endangered populations of native animals to the area.

Explanation:

Invasive species is the species which comes from non-native land either due to human introduction or by their own. The invasive species compete with the members of the native species for resources.

The following are the steps will help prevent the introduction of invasive species into an area:

--Educate the general public about activities that can lead to the spread of invasive species.: The general public must be aware about the drawbacks and problems associated with the spread of invasive species.

--Implement conservation methods to restore endangered populations of native animals to the area.: The invasive species is likely to compete with the native species for resources. Hence, this can harm the population of the native species. This will kill the native species members to the extend that the species become endangered. The endangered members must be protected by using the conservation methods.

Answer:

  (47xy)/(6√3)

Step-by-step explanation:

A variable term is one that contains one or more variables, possibly with a coefficient. We can use 47xy as our variable term.

A constant is some number, or a representative of a particular number. π and e and Ф are representative of irrational constants. Of course, any number is also a constant. We can use 6√3 as our constant.

A quotient is formed when a first value is divided by a second value.

Here is the quotient of our variable term and our constant:
