Stan 12%
Liam 0.11 or 11%
Louise .07 or 7%

500 / 5 = 100
so 
12 / 5 = 2.4
11 / 5 = 2.2
7% / 5 = 1.4

these numbers tells the percent for 1 pound, so Stan used the most.

Sorry if wrong but pretty sure it's right.

Fill in missing information to make the equality true: <br> (... +2a)2 = … +12ab2+4a2.
BigorU [14]

Answer:

I suppose it should be

6b² and (6b²)²

or

6b² and 36b^{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

therefore

(6b²+2a)² = (6b²)² + 12ab² + 4a²

Which expression is equivalent to Negative 2 and one-fourth divided by negative two-thirds? StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction d
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Negative StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction divided by two-thirds

i.e.

-\dfrac{9}{4} \div \dfrac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find equivalent expression to :

Negative 2 and one-fourth divided by negative two-thirds

i.e.

-2\dfrac{1}{4} \div \dfrac{2}{3} = ?

We have to convert the the mixed fraction form -2\frac{1}{4} to simpler \frac{p}{q} fraction form.

Let us learn the concept first.

Mixed fraction is combination of a whole number and a fraction.

Expression of the form a\frac{b}{c} have the following understanding:

c is the divider

b is the remainder and

a is the quotient.

To convert mixed fraction to fraction we can use the following:

a\dfrac{b}{c} = \dfrac{a \times c+b}{c}

\therefore -2\dfrac{1}{4} = -\dfrac{(2 \times 4+1)}{4} = -\dfrac{9}{4}

Hence

-2\dfrac{1}{4} \div \dfrac{2}{3} = -\dfrac{9}{4} \div \dfrac{2}{3}

i.e. the given expression is equivalent to :

Negative StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction divided by two-thirds

Sven is trying to find the maximum amount of time he can spend practicing the five scales of piano music he is supposed to be wo
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

He should spend 3 minutes or less on each scale

Sven made a mistake in the symbol of inequality, placing lesser or equal instead of greater or equal

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

t ------> is the number of minutes he spends on each scale

Remember that the phrase "at least"  is equal to "greater than or equal"

so

The inequality that represent this scenario is

70-5t \geq 55

solve for t

-5t \geq 55-70

-5t \geq -15

Multiply by -1 both sides

5t \leq 15

Divide by 5 both sides

t \leq 3

Sven is incorrect

He should spend 3 minutes or less on each scale

Sven made a mistake in the symbol of inequality, placing lesser or equal instead of greater or equal

Michael threw for 1,654 yards in his first five games. At this rate, how many yards will he have thrown for in fifteen games? ✗
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

4,962 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

For the first 5 games, Michael threw 1,654 yards.

Since, we see that, the relationship between the yards and the games are directly proportional.

Then for 15 games,

Michael will have thrown for \frac{1654}{5}\times 3 yards i.e. 1654 × 3 = 4,962 yards

Hence, for 15 games, Michael have thrown for 4,962 yards
