Answer:

Sample response: Draw one whole fraction bar. Next, draw 6 equal bars under it, since you are dividing by sixths. Then draw a twelfths fraction bar with 2 twelfths for each sixth bar. Above the twelfths bar, circle groups of 4 sixths. There is one group of 4/6 with 1/6 remaining. Since 1/6 is 1/4 of 4/6, the quotient is 1 1/4.

(10/12) / (4/6)...when dividing with fractions, flip what u r dividing by, then multiply

10/12 * 6/4 = 10/8 which reduces to 5/4 or 1 1/4

A frog catches insects for his lunch. The frog likes to eat flies and mosquitoes in a certain ratio, which is shown in the diagr
avanturin [10]

Answer:

ON MONDAY:  35 mosquitos.

ON TUESDAY: 6 flies.

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see in the diagram, the frog eats 3 flies for every 7 mosquitoes (for lunch). Then you can expresed this ratio as following:

3:7 or \frac{3}{7}

Based on the table:

-If the frog eats 15 flies on monday, then the number of mosquitos that it eats can be calculated as following:

\frac{3}{7}=\frac{15}{mosquitoes}\\\\mosquitoes=\frac{15*7}{3}\\\\mosquitoes=35

-If the frog eats 14 mosquitoes on tuesday, then the number of flies that it eats can be calculated as following:

\frac{3}{7}=\frac{flies}{14}\\\\flies=\frac{14*3}{7}\\\\flies=6

Which is the best approximation for the solution of the system of equations? y = A system of equations. y equals negative StartF
Alla [95]

Answer:

(0.88, 0.65)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the two equations of the line are:

y =( -2/5)x + 1 and  y = 3x – 2. To find the solution, we have to solve the equations simultaneously.

y =( -2/5)x + 1       .             .            .      1)

y = 3x – 2             .            .             .      2)

Subtracting equation 1 from equation 2:

3.4x -3 = 0

3.4x = 3

Dividing through by 3.4

3.4x/3.4 = 3/3.4

x = 0.88

To find y, substitute x = 0.88 in equation 2:

y = 3(0.88) - 2

y = 2.65 - 2

y = 0.65

This means that the solution to the system of equations is the point of intersection of the two lines which is at (0.88, 0.65)
