Colleen compared the ratios 3:8 and 1/2.
Her work is shown below.
Write the ratios as fractions: 3/8 and 1/8 Compare the numerators: 3 > 1 Write the correct statement: 3/8 > 1/2
Where did Colleen make her first mistake?
A. The common denominator should be 4 rather than 8
B. The numerators are compared incorrectly.
C. The fraction 1/2 should have been rewritten as 6/8
D. The fraction 1/2 should have been rewritten as 4/8.
Answer:
D. The fraction 1/2 should have been rewritten as 4/8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Colleen compared the ratios 3:8 and 1/2.
Step 1
Write the ratios as fractions: 3/8 and 1/2
Step 2
Compare the numerators: 3 > 1
Step 3
Compare the denominators 8 >2
Write the correct statement:
3/8 > 4/8
Therefore, D. The fraction 1/2 should have been rewritten as 4/8.
First, Michelle exercises for thirty minutes every day.
If Michelle exercises for 30 minutes for 5 days, this would 30 × 5.
30 × 5 = 150 minutes
Answer:
$24.09
Step-by-step explanation:
you do 984.20-381.80=602.4
then divide 602.4 by 1/4
which 1/4=25.
then you get $24.09
You haven't provided the choices, therefore, I cannot provide an exact answer. However, I will help you with the concept.
For an order pair to be a solution to a system of equations, it has to satisfy <u>BOTH</u> equations. If it satisfies only one equation of the system or satisfy neither of the equations, the, it is not a solutions
<u><em>Examples:</em></u>
<u>System 1:</u>
x = y + 1
2x + 3y = 7
Let's check (2,1)
2 = 1 + 1 ........> equation 1 is satisfied
2(2) + 3(1) = 7 ......> equation 2 is satisfied
<u>(2,1) is a solution to this system</u>
<u>System 2:</u>
y = x + 3
y = x - 1
Let's check (2,1):
1 ≠ 2 + 3 ........> equation 1 isn't satisfied
1 = 2 - 1 ..........> equation 2 is satisfied
<u>(2,1) isn't a solution to this system</u>
<u>System 3:</u>
2y = 9 - 3x
3x + 2y = 9
Let's ceck (2,1):
2(1) ≠ 9 - 3(2) ..........> equation 1 isn't satisfied
3(2) + 2(1) ≠ 9 .........> equation 2 isn't satisfied
<u>(2,1) isn't a solution to this system
</u>
<u><em>Based on the above,</em></u> all you have to do is substitute with (2,1) in the system you have and pick the one where both equations are satisfied

Answer:
Length is 20 m and width is 4 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Perimeter of the rectangular alley, 
Length is 5 times the width.
Let width be 
.
So, as per question,
Length,
Now, perimeter of rectangle is given as:
Plug in 48 for 
, 
for 
and for b.
Therefore, width is 4 m.
Length is 
m.
