A trail is 7/12 mile long, which trail is shorter, than 7/12

3/8,5/6,3/4,2/3

Answers

Answer 1
3/8 i think is the right answer

Answer 2

Among the given options, the trail which is shorter than 7/12 is 3/8

Determining the magnitude of a fraction

From the question, we are to determine which trail is shorter than 7/12

To determine which of the given fractions is shorter than 7/12, we will express all the fractions in a common denominator

The given fraction are

3/8, 5/6, 3/4, 2/3

Using a common denominator of 48,

7/12 = 28/48

For the given options,

3/8 = 18/48

5/6 = 40/48

3/4 = 36/48

2/3 = 32/ 48

Now, we will compare their numerators. The fraction which has a numerator that is smaller than the numerator in 28/48 is the fraction smaller than 7/12.

Among the fraction, 18 is the smallest of the numerators and it is lesser than 28.

18/48 corresponds to 3/8

Hence, the trail which is shorter than 7/12 is 3/8

the width of a large, rectangular-shaped tree farm is 1.9 kilometers. The length of the farm is 4.4 kilometers. What is the best estimate of the area of the farm ?

Answers

The real answer is 8.36, but I think the estimate would be 8.40

Answer:- The best estimate of the area of the farm is 8 kilometers.


Explanation:-

Given:- Width of the rectangular shaped tree farm= 1.9 kilometers

⇒Estimated width of the farm=2 kilometers [2 is the nearest integer to 1.9]

Length of the rectangular shaped tree farm=4.4 kilometers

⇒Estimated length of the farm=4 kilometers [4 is the nearest integer to 4..4]

To make estimates, we usually round the numbers the nearest integer.


Now, Estimated Area of the Farm= estimated width × estimated length

= 2×4 kilometers = 8 kilometers.

∴the best estimate of the area of the farm =8 kilometers.

Lou Harris is guaranteed a minimum of $275 weekly salary plus 5 1/4% of hs total sales. What are his total sales for a week in which his gross pay was $700

Answers

The sales are $8095.24.

We can set up an equation for this.  Let x be the amount of sales.  5.25% = 5.25/100 = 0.0525.

275+0.0525x=700

Subtract 275 from both sides:
275+0.0525x-275 = 700-275
0.0525x=425

Divide both sides by 0.0525:
0.0525x/0.0525 = 425/0.0525
x = 8095.24

A)reflection across the x-axis

B) reflection across the y-axis

C)reflection across y = x

D)reflection across y=−x

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices of △ABC are A(−7, 1) , B(−5, −3) , and C(−3, 2) . The vertices of △A′B′C′ are A′(−7, −1) , B′(−5, 3) , and C′(−3, −2) .

The relation between coordinates of preimage and image is defined as

Sign of y-coordinate changes but x-coordinate remains the same. It is possible it the figure is reflection across the x-axis.

Therefore the correct option is A.

Karla is mowing her lawn. She knows 2/5 of the lawn before stopping for a snack. She resumes mowing after her snack and mows another 1/3 of her lawn before stopping. What total fraction of the lawn does Karla mow before lunch?

Answers

we add both fractions
2/5+1/3=6/15+5/15=11/15 she mows before lunch

Karla mows a total of 11/15 of her lawn before lunch after adding the fractions 2/5 and 1/3 with a common denominator of 15.

The student's question has two parts where Karla mows her lawn in fractions, first 2/5 and then another 1/3. To find the total fraction of the lawn that she mows before lunch, these two fractions need to be added. However, since they do not have the same denominator, we first need to find a common denominator to combine these fractions properly.

The least common denominator (LCD) for 5 and 3 is 15. We convert the fractions to have this common denominator:

(2/5) becomes (6/15) after multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 3.(1/3) becomes (5/15) after multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 5.

Now we add the fractions:

(6/15) + (5/15) = (11/15)

Thus, Karla mows a total of 11/15 of her lawn before lunch.

your water hose is leaking at a rate of 0.25 cups per hour. how many gallons did you hose leak in a full 24 hour day

Answers

I believe that the answer is 6 balloons.

Solution:

we are given that

water hose is leaking at a rate of 0.25 cups per hour.

We have been asked to find that

how many gallons did you hose leak in a full 24 hour day.

Since water hose is leaking at a rate of 0.25 cups per hour.

It mean the tank will leak by [tex] 0.25*4=1 \ Cup [/tex] in 4 Hours.

So in 24 Hours the tank will leak by [tex] \frac{24}{4}*1=6*1=6 \ Cups [/tex] .

As we know that 1 Gallon=16 Cups.

It mean in 24 Hours the tank leaked by [tex] \frac{1}{16}*6= 0.375 \ Gallon [/tex]

Interquartile range = 57 - 29=28

Data values are approximately equally distributed on both sides of median.

That is, 43-22=21, and ,69 -43=26

So,we can say that there will be no outliers.

Graph will be positively skewed.

Mean > Median

So,mean will be better measure of central tendency because, 43.4-22=21.4, and 69-43.4=25.6

Option A: There are no outliers.

And, Option C: The Mean is good measure of central tendency.

Answer:

No, it is not a  positive net cash flow. Because they are spending more than they even have which is creating debt.

Step-by-step explanation:


If your expenses are more than your income, then you have a positive net cash flow, which is false.

What is cash flow?

The cash balance of liquid assets coming into and going out of a business is referred to as cash flow. Money spent and money received reflect inflows and outflows, respectively.

The cash flow is the difference between outflow and inflow.

Cash flow = out flow - inflow

If the value of the cash flow is negative that means the expense is more.

If the value of the cash flow is positive that means the income is more.

If your expenses are more than your income, then you have a positive net cash flow, which is false.

Question 10 an urn contains two white marbles and one black marble. a marble is drawn from the urn without replacement and put aside without my seeing it. then a second marble is drawn, and it is white. what is the probability that the unknown removed marble is white, and what is the probability that it is black?

Answers

Final answer:

The probability that the unknown removed marble is white is 1/2, and the probability that it is black is also 1/2. This is calculated by considering the outcomes of the draws, their probabilities, and the fact that drawing a white marble after another without replacement affects the outcomes.

Explanation:

The question involves calculating conditional probabilities in a scenario where marbles are drawn from an urn without replacement. Initially, the urn contains two white marbles and one black marble. A marble is drawn and set aside (its color unknown), and then a second marble is drawn, which is observed to be white. We are asked to find the probability that the first marble drawn was white, and the probability it was black.

To solve this, we consider the two possible scenarios for the first draw: drawing a white marble or drawing a black marble, and then drawing a white marble in the second draw. The probability of drawing white then another white (WW) equals, the probability of drawing a white marble first (2/3) multiplied by the probability of drawing the second white marble given the first was white (1/2). This gives (2/3)*(1/2) = 1/3. Alternatively, the probability of drawing a black then a white marble (BW) equals the probability of drawing a black marble first (1/3) multiplied by the probability of drawing a white marble given the first was black (2/2) = 1/3, simplifying to (1/3)*(1) = 1/3

To find the probability that the unknown marble is white, we see that both scenarios WW and BW result in drawing a white marble second, so we only need to calculate the probability of the WW scenario over the total probability of drawing a white marble in the second draw. This gives us 1/3 / (1/3 + 1/3) = 1/2. Therefore, the probability that the unknown marble is white is 1/2, and by complement, the probability it is black is also 1/2
