Suppose two fractions are both less than 1. Can their sum be greater than 1? greater than 2?

Answers

Answer 1
Their sum can be greater than 1 but it would be less than 2.

The biggest fraction which is less than 1 is 0.99

Sum of 0.99 + 0.99 = 1.98, which is greater than 1 but less than 2.
Answer 2
The sum can be greater than 1, but not two. For example say the fractions are, 3/4 and 5/6, the total is , 1 7/12. Which is greater than 1 but not two. It cannot be greater than 2 because fractions are a part of 1.UNLESS, it is a mixed number fractions, than they can be infinitely great. Such as 123 3/4 + 45 2/4 is definitely greater than 2.

The value of an autographed baseball card increased from $39 to $65. What is the percent increase in value of the baseball card? Round to the nearest hundredth of a percent

Answers

The percent increase is found by finding the difference between the two prices and then dividing that different by the beginning price.

For this example it would be 65-39= $26. So $26/$39(the starting price) is 0.666... This is equivalent to about 66.67%. So, the price of the card increased by about 66.67%

Answer:

The percent increase in value of the baseball card is 66.667%

Step-by-step explanation:

You must first determine the amount of money increased by the value of an autographed baseball card.  For this you must subtract the price with the applied increase and the original price of the card: $65-$39=$26

This will be the amount of increase. Then, one way to calculate the percentage increase in the value of the baseball card is through a direct rule of three.

The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. That is, what is intended with it is to find the fourth term of a proportion knowing the other three. Remember that proportionality is a constant relationship or ratio between different magnitudes.

If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, that is, when one magnitude increases, so does the other  (Or when one magnitude decreases, so does the other), the direct rule of three must be applied. To solve a direct rule of three, the following formula must be followed:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

Then

[tex]x=\frac{c*b}{a}[/tex]

In this case, the rule of three applies as follows: If the original price ($ 39) represents 100%, what is the value of the percentage in the value of the baseball card when its value increases $ 26?

[tex]percentage=\frac{26*100}{39}[/tex]

percentage=66.667%

Another way of thinking about it is considering that:

change from the original price = percentage of change*original price

In this case: $26=percentage of change*$39

So, isolating the percentage of change you get:

[tex]percentage of change=\frac{26}{39} =0.66667[/tex]

This value is expressed in decimal, and for it to be expressed in fraction you must multiply it by 100 (100%). Then you get:

percentage of change=0.66667*100%

percentage of change=66.667%

Note that the value obtained is the same as in the previous case, so both ways of thinking the solution to this problem is correct

Finally, the percent increase in value of the baseball card is 66.667%

What simplified ratio correctly compares 10,000 centimeters to 1000 meters? Drag and drop the appropriate numbers into the boxes

Answers

(10,000*10^-2 m) : (1000 m) = 100 : 1000 = 1 : 10

For this case, the first thing we must do is to have the same units for both measures.

We have then that by definition:

[tex]1m = 100cm[/tex]

Therefore we have:

[tex]10,000cm * (\frac {1m} {100cm}) = 100m[/tex]

Then, we look for the relationship between both measures:

[tex](\frac {100m} {1000m})[/tex]

Simplifying we have:

[tex](\frac {1m} {10m})[/tex]

Answer:

The simplified ratio that correctly compares 10,000 centimeters to 1000 meters is:

D is true
[tex]2x - 1 < 10 \\ 2 \times (2) - 1 = 3 \\ 2 \times (3) - 1 = 5 \\ 2 \times (4) - 1 = 7[/tex]

Answer:

Hence, the set of values that holds true is:

2-3-4

Hence, option: D is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find which set of the values make the following inequality:

2x-1<10 true.

i..e we will put the given set of value s in place of xx and check whether the value of 2x-1 is less than 10 or not.

If it is then the set of values hold true.

A)

10-15-20

put x=10

2x-1=2×10-1

      =20-1

        =19 which is not less than 10.

Hence, option: A is incorrect.

B)

5-7-9

when x=9

2x-1=2×9-1

     =18-1

     =17 which is not less than 10.

Hence, option: B is incorrect.

C)

4-6-8

when x=8

2x-1=2×8-1

     =16-1

     =15 which is again not less than 10

Hence, option: C is incorrect.

D)

2-3-4

when x=2

2x-1=2×2-1

     =4-1

    =3<10

when x=3

2x-1=2×3-1

     =6-1

     =5 < 10

when x=4

2x-1=2×4-1

     =8-1

     =7<10

Hence, option: D is true.

Hence, the set of values that holds true is:

2-3-4

Solve for x and y using elimination.
5x+2y=17
x-2y=8


Answers

On both equations, you have a similar term, but with opposite sign: 2y

Applying elimination means to add the two equations:
(5x + x) + (2y - 2y) = (17 + 8)

Making calculations, you get:
6x = 25
Therefore: x = 25/6

You can now substitute this value in either one of the original equations, after solving for y:
x - 2y = 8 
-2y = 8 - x
2y = x - 8
y = (x - 8) / 2

y = ((25/6) - 8) / 2 = ( - 23/6) / 2 = -23/12

Therefore:
x = 25/6
y = -23/12
 

A triangle undergoes a sequence of transformations. First, the triangle is dilated by a scale factor of 1/2 about the origin. Then the triangle is reflected over the x-axis. Finally, the triangle is translated left 2 units and up 4 units. How does the newly formed triangle compare to the original triangle?

Answers

The triangle will still be similar to the original triangle.
Those transformations altered the position and scale of the triangle, but the angle measures are still the same.

The image of the triangle undergoes a transformation: (x, y) ⇒ [-(1/2)y - 2, (1/2)x + 4]

What is Dilation?

Dilation is a process for creating similar figures by changing the size.

What is graph?

A graph can be defined as a pictorial representation or a diagram that represents data or values.

What is scale image?

Scale image is defined as a ratio that represents the relationship between the shape and size of a figure and the corresponding dimensions on the actual figure or object.

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation include translation, reflection, rotation and dilation.

If a point A(x, y) is dilated by a factor p, the new point is at A'(px, py).

If a point A(x, y) is reflected over the x-axis, the new point is at A'(x, -y).

If a point A(x, y) is translated a units left and b units up, the new point is at A'(x - a, y + b).

b = 55/6

equation
y = -7/6(x) + 55/6

answer
y=−7/6 x+55/6 

The equation that best represents a trend line for the scatter plot is y=−7/6 x+55/6

What is the slope?

The slope is the ratio of the vertical changes to the horizontal changes between two points of the line.

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the two points that you are trying to find the slope between.

We are given the points  (1, 8) and (7,1) on the scatter plot.

Therefore, the slope = (8-1)/(1-7) = -7/6

Now, the equation of line;

y = mx + b

b = y - mx

b = 8 - (-7/6)(1)

b = 8 + 7/6

b = 55/6

The equation becomes;

y = -7/6(x) + 55/6

The answer is y=−7/6 x+55/6

a boy flies a kite with 100 foot long string. the angle of elevation of the string is 48. how high is the kite from the ground.

Answers

With this, we should remember SOHCAHTOA (Sine: Opposite over Hypotenuse, Cosine: Adjacent over Hypotenuse, and Tangent: Opposite over Adjacent).

Using the image attached, we know that we should use Sine, because we know the hypotenuse (100 feet) and we want to know the height, or the Opposite (h).

So, we use: sin(48)=h/100 and we multiply both sides by 100 to get:

100sin(48)=h

Now, we just plug the numbers into a calculator. (Make sure your calculator is set to Degrees, or "Deg").

What we get is about 74.3144825... but we can round that to 74.3 feet.

Answer: 74.3 feet.
Final answer:

The height of the kite from the ground is approximately 74.2 feet, calculated using the trigonometric concept of sine. Sine of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the hypotenuse.

Explanation:

The subject of the question is the height of a kite, a topic in Trigonometry.Trigonometry deals with the relationships between the sides and angles of triangles. In this case, we're given that a boy is flying a kite with a 100 foot string at an angle of 48 degrees. We can use the concept of sine in Trigonometry, where sine of an angle in a right triangle is the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the hypotenuse.

In this case, the height of the kite from the ground forms the opposite side, the 100 foot string forms the hypotenuse, and the angle of elevation given is 48 degrees. We have the equation:

sin(48) = height / 100

Therefore, the height = sin(48) * 100.

Using a calculator to find the sine of 48 degrees, and then multiplying the result by 100, we get the height of the kite from the ground to be approximately 74.2 feet.

x(x - 9) = 0

Now you have a product of fully factored terms equaling zero, so you can apply the zero product property to solve.

Jade buys a blouse and a skirt for 34 of their original price. Jade pays a total of $31.50 for the two items. If the original price of the blouse is $18, what is the original price of the skirt? Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

I attached a screenshot with the correct ratio of the question.

Answer:
original price of blouse = $24

Explanation:
Assume that the original price of the skirt is x and that the original price of the blouse is y.

We know that:
1- 3/4 of their price together is $31.5
This means that:
3/4 (x+y) = 31.5 ............> equation I

2- original price of blouse is $18.
This means that:
x = 18 .............> II

Substitute with II in I and solve for y to get the original price of the blouse as follows:
3/4 (x+y) = 31.5
3/4 (18+y) = 31.5
3 (18+y) = 31.5 * 4
3 (18+y) = 126
18 + y = 126 / 3
18 + y = 42
y = 42 - 18
y  $24
