Jeremiah ran for 3/10 of a mile and then walked another 2/5 of a mile. How far did he travel in all?

Daniel read 4/5 books and Edgar read 1/2 books. How many more books did Daniel read than Edgar?

Jared drove 2/8 miles to the restaurant. He drove another 1/4 miles to the mall. How many miles did he drive in all?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer to the first question: 7/10ths of a mile

Explaination: When adding fractions, you need to have a common denominator. Since dividing 3/10 by 2 to get a denominator of 5 makes 3 a decimal, it's easier to multiply 2/5 by 2 to get a denominator of 10. You do the same to the top that you do to the bottom: [tex]\frac{2*2}{5*2} = \frac{4}{10}[/tex]. From there, just add 4/10 and 3/10 to get the answer: 7/10ths of a mile.

Answer to the second question: Daniel read three (3/10) more books

Explaination: Since you can't evenly multiply 5 or 2 to get the opposite number, it's easier to multiply to the lowest common multiple. The easiest way to find that is to multiply both denominators (5*2=10). You'll have to multiply the numerator by the same amount you multipled the denominator by. For Daniel, that would mean: [tex]\frac{4*2}{5*2} = \frac{8}{10}[/tex]. For Edgar, that would mean: [tex]\frac{1*5}{2*5} = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]. So, Daniel read 3 more books than Edgar.

Answer to the third question: 2/4 mile (or 1/2 a mile)

Explaination: 2/8 can be simplified, by dividing the top and bottom by 2, resulting in 1/4. Since both fractions have the same denominator (/4), you can add them to get 2/4ths. This can be simplified further to half (1/2) a mile.

Answer 2

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] to have a denominator of 10.

[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{2}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3}{10} + \frac{4}{10} = \frac{7}{10}[/tex]

Jeremiah ran [tex]\frac{7}{10}[/tex] of a mile in total.

2. Convert the denominators of all the fractions to have a 10.

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{5}{5} =\frac{5}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{2}{2} = \frac{8}{10}[/tex]

Daniel read [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] more books than Edgar, since 8 books is more than 5 books by 3 books.

3. Convert [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] to have a denominator of 8.

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{2}{2} = \frac{2}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2}{8} +\frac{2}{8}= \frac{4}{8}, or\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Jared drove [tex]\frac{4}{8}[/tex], or [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] miles in total.

53: $16.50

54: $17.85

55: 4.4 miles

56: $49.35

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer to the first question (the one about the cables): So you would solve it by adding the lengths of the cable together.

Cut off piece: 1.65 m       Remaining cable: 3.5 m

To find the original length, we need to add the cut off piece and the remaining cable together.

1.65+3.5= 5.15

The original cable was 5.15 m long.

Answer:

The volume of a sphere is given as

4/3 πr^3

There is only one variable, the radius, which we are given in the problem.

since the radius is 6 cm, we can plug that in to the formula

4/3 π6^3

Put this into the calculator, and we see that the volume is 904.8cm rounded to the nearest tenth.

y values: 3,4,5,6

x values: 5,10,15,20

Step-by-step explanation:

I used a graphing calculator but y is increasing by one and x increases by 5 each time

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A's number is x. B's number is y.

x = 5y - 10

First row: What is x when y= 3?

                             x = 5y - 10 = 5*3 - 10 = 15 - 10 = 5; x = 5

Second row: What is x when y = 4?

                             x = 5y - 10 = 5*4 - 10 = 20 - 10 = 10; x = 10

Third row:      What is y when x = 15?

                             x = 5y - 10

  Add 10 both sides     x + 10 = 5y - 10 +10

                                      x + 10 = 5y

But we're told x = 15, so   15 + 10 = 5y

                                             25 = 5y

Divide both sides by 5         25/5 = 5y/5

                                                  5 = y                      y = 5

Fourth row: What is x when y = 6?

                                        x = 5y - 10 = 5*6 - 10 = 30 - 10 = 20; x = 20

To find:

The formula for the nth term of the given sequence.

Solution:

We have,

12, 6, 3, ...

Here, first term is 12.

Clearly, [tex]\dfrac{6}{12}=\dfrac{3}{6}[/tex]. Since the given sequence has a common ratio [tex]r=dfrac{1}{2}[/tex], therefore it is a geometric sequence.

The formula for the nth term of the given sequence is:

[tex]a_n=ar^{n-1}[/tex]

Where, a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

[tex]a_n=12\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{n-1}[/tex]

Therefore, the formula for the nth term of the given sequence is [tex]a_n=12\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{n-1}[/tex].

Given the function f(x) = 4x + 1, EXPLAIN and show how to find the average rate of change between x = 1 and x = 3.

Answers

The average rate of change is calculated as the slope of the line between the two points on the graph. Since at x = 1, y = -3, and at x = 3, y = 1, these are the two points which we calculate the slope from. Using the formula

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (1 - (-3))/(3 - 1)

m = 4/2

m = 2

Therefore the slope, or the average rate of change, between these points is 2.

Average rate of change is another word for the slope. The function you have is presented in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), where m=your slope. This means that you already know the slope, which is 4.

Just in case you need to show why the slope = 4, I’ll leave how to find it here:

To find the slope, use the formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

First, you need to find the y-values at x=1 and x=3. To do this, plug the x-values into the equation. The value you end up with is your y-value.

f(1) = 4(1) + 1 = 5
f(3) = 4(3) + 1 = 13

So your two points are (1, 5) and (4, 13). Now plug these points into the slope formula

m = (13-5)/(3-1) = 8/2. 8 divided by two is 4, so your average rate of change is 4. You can double check this by graphing.

Answers

Answer:

Yolanda is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Hazel has $23.28 and $5.60 more than Nixon, then Nixon will have $17.68 because 23.28-5.60 is 17.68.

The only way Paul would be right is if Nixon has $5.60 more than Hazel because 23.28+5.60 is 28.88.
