2/3 = 8/12
1/4 = 4/12

You start with 8/12 and eat 4/12 so 4/12 (or one quarter) remains.

Answer:  The fraction of the bag that left is \dfrac{5}{12}.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that there is a \dfrac{2}{3} of a bag of jelly jeans and Danny ate \dfrac{1}[4} of the bag last night.

We are to find the fraction of the bag that left.

Let A be the fraction of the bag that is full of jelly beans and B be the fraction of the bag that Danny ate last night.

Then, according to the given information, we have

A=\dfrac{2}{3},~~~B=\dfrac{1}{4}.

Therefore, the fraction of the bag that left is given by

L=A-B=\dfrac{2}{3}-\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{8-3}{12}=\dfrac{5}{12}.

Thus, the fraction of the bag that left is \dfrac{5}{12}.

Nady [450]
We know the triangle is an isosceles triangle. So, we use the Pythagorean Theorem. 

a^2+b^2=c^2

The c would be 22, because it's the longest edge. Now find a or b. They are the same, that is how you find the two sides of the triangle for part A.

To find the area of the triangle, the forumla is a=hb/2

Plug in the numbers for that formula and the answer would be found for part B.

I hope I helped.

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

250 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

circumference of circle 'C' is defined as

C = 2πr

250π = 2πr

r = 250π/2π

r= 125

d = 2r = 2×125 = 250 .

diameter of the given circle is 250 ft

Find a b if a = 3i + 8j and b = -0.5i -4j.
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

-33.5

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is a dot products vector problem, so the i and j represent x and y or horizontal and vertical components. So you multiple 3i and -0.5i and then separately multiply 8j and -4j. You get -1.5 and -32. Now all you have to do is add them and you get -33.5.

Basically in short:

1. Multiply the “i’s”.

2. Multiply the “j’s”.

3. Add the two products together.

HOPE THIS HELPS !! :-)
