Ok...so 2/4 = 1/2 or 0.5.....and u want a fraction with a denominator of 6 greater then this...

3/6 is not greater, it is equal....so try 4/6.......4/6 = 0.66....so it is greater then 2/4 and has a denominator of 6

Answer:

\frac{4}{6}\ is\ greater\ than \frac{2}{4}.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Pedro fills a glass \frac{2}{4} full with orange juice.

Now \frac{2}{4} is written in the decimal form .

\frac{2}{4} = 0.5

Now find out  a fraction with a denominator of 6 that us greater than  \frac{2}{4} .

First take

\frac{1}{6} = 0.16\ (Approx)

Thus

Clearly \frac{1}{6}\ less\ than\ \frac{2}{4}.

Sceond take

\frac{2}{6} = 0.33

Thus

\frac{2}{6}\ less\ than\ \frac{2}{4}.

Clearly \frac{2}{6}\ less\ than\ \frac{2}{4}.

Third take

\frac{3}{6} = 0.5

Thus

\frac{3}{6}\ is\ equal\ to \frac{2}{4}.

Fourth take

\frac{4}{6} = 0.66\ (Approx)

Thus

\frac{4}{6}\ is\ greater\ than \frac{2}{4}.

Therefore \frac{4}{6}\ is\ greater\ than \frac{2}{4}.

1.) y=3
2.) y=13
     2y + y = 3y , 22+17= 39
     3y = 39 , divide 3 on each side (which cancels out the 3 with the y which leaves you with y)
3.) y=10
     3y - y = 2y , 35-15= 20
     2y=20 , do the same as # 2.
4.) y=4
     9y - 5y = 4y , 48-32= 16
     4y=16, do the same as #2 & #3
5.) (4,5)
     x + 3y = 19
   2x - 3y = -7
    solve for x first ; x + 2x= 3x , 19-7 = 12; 3x = 12 ; divide 3 ; x= 4. You know have to make the x's cancel out. so I will multiply -2 on the first equation. -2(x+3y=19)
     -2x - 6y = -38
      2x - 3y = -7
    Now solve for y ; -6y + -3y = -9y , -38 + -7 = -45; -9y=-45 ; divide by -9 (since they are both negative your answer will be positive) ; y= 5
6.) (6,8)
   x + 4y = 38
  -x - 3y = -30
solve for y first ; 4y - 3y = y , 38-30 = 8; y=8 (that simple!) Now you need to find a common multiple for 4 & 3 which is 12. So you will have to multiply each equation by either 4 or 3.
  (x + 4y = 38)*3      =     3x + 12y = 114         
 (-x - 3y = -30)*4     =     -4x - 12y = -120
solve for x ; 3x - 4x = -x , 114-120= -6 ; -x=-6. Since the x has a negative that means there's still a 1 there so -1x=-6 ; you will need to divide this which makes the 6 a positive; x=6

Samuel was riding in the back seat of the station wagon on the way home after a long and tiring day at the
ki77a [65]

Answer: One fourth of the entire trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial distance is D.

" He fell asleep halfway home."

Then he fells asleep when the distance between his actual position and his house was half of D, or:

D/2.

"He didn't wake up until he still had half as far to go as he had already

gone while asleep."

So he wakes up when his actual position is a fourth of the initial distance:

(D/2)/2 = D/4.

Then if the entire trip has a distance D, and he was sleeping between:

D/2 - D/4 = 2D/4 - D/4 = D/4.

in a trip of a distance D, he was asleep a distance of D/4.

Then, returning to the question:

How much of the entire trip home was Samuel asleep?

This is equal to the quotient between the distance that he travels asleep and the total distance:

r = (D/4)/D = 1/4.

Then he was asleep in 1/4 of the entire trip.

Consider the polynomial: StartFraction x Over 4 EndFraction – 2x5 + StartFraction x cubed Over 2 EndFraction + 1 Which polynomia
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

- 2x^5+ 0x^4 +  \frac{x^3}{2} +0x^2+\frac{x}{4}  + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{x}{4} - 2x^5 + \frac{x^3}{2} + 1

Required

The standard form of the polynomial

The general form of a polynomial is

ax^n + bx^{n-1} + cx^{n-2} +........+ k

Where k is a constant and the terms are arranged from biggest to smallest exponents

We start by rearranging the given polynomial

- 2x^5+ \frac{x^3}{2} +\frac{x}{4}  + 1

Given that the highest exponent of x is 5;

Let n = 5

Then we fix in the missing terms in terms of n

- 2x^5+ 0x^{n-1} +  \frac{x^3}{2} +0x^{n-3}+\frac{x}{4}  + 1

Substitute 5 for n

- 2x^5+ 0x^{5-1} +  \frac{x^3}{2} +0x^{5-3}+\frac{x}{4}  + 1

- 2x^5+ 0x^{4} +  \frac{x^3}{2} +0x^{2}+\frac{x}{4}  + 1

Hence, the standard form of the given polynomial is - 2x^5+ 0x^4 +  \frac{x^3}{2} +0x^2+\frac{x}{4}  + 1

The Rockville Employment Agency just placed Howard Jacobson in a job as a junior pharmacist. The job pays $51.2k. The agency fee
yan [13]

His annual salary as a pharmacist is $51,200

There are a total of 52 weeks in an year.

(a) Weekly salary = annual salary/ number of weeks = 51,200/52 = $984.62 (rounded to the nearest cent)

Howard's weekly salary to the nearest cent = $984.62

(b) His salary in first three weeks = 984.62*3 = $2,953.85

Howard's earnings during the first three weeks  to the nearest cent  = $2,953.85

(c) He has to pay the agency 40% of his three week salary which is = 0.4*2953.85 =1,181.54

Howard must pay to  the employment agency to the nearest dollar = $1,182

Sharon is 54 inches tall. tree in her backyard is five times as tall as she is. the floor of her treehouse is at a height that i
mafiozo [28]
First to solve this problem you are going to figure out how tall the tree is. So if Sharon is 54 inches and the tree 5 times the height she is you would do 54*5= 270. Next you go to find out how tall the floor of her tree house is. It says the floor is twice the height of her so you would do 54*2=108. Then the problem asks the difference between the top of the tree and the floor of the tree house. So 270-108=162. I hope this helped. :) Brainliest answer?
