During a field trip, 60 students are put into equal-sized groups. Describe two ways to interpret 60÷5 60 ÷ 5 in this context. Fi
Afina-wow [57]

The second question:

Consider the division expression 7\frac{1}{2} / 2. Select all multiplication equations that correspond to this division expression.

2 * ? = 7\frac{1}{2}     7\frac{1}{2} * ?= 2     ? * 2  = 7\frac{1}{2}

2* 7\frac{1}{2} = ?    ?  * 7\frac{1}{2} = 2

Answer:

1. See Explanation

2. 2 * ? = 7\frac{1}{2}     and     ? * 2  = 7\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a):

Given

Students = 60

Group = Equal\ Sized

Required

Interpret \frac{60}{5} in 2 ways

<u>Interpretation 1:</u> Number of groups if there are 5 students in each

<u>Interpretation 2:</u> Number of students in each group if there are 5 groups

<u>Solving the quotient</u>

Quotient = \frac{60}{5}

Quotient = 12

<u>For Interpretation 1:</u>

The quotient means: 12 groups

<u>For Interpretation 2:</u>

The quotient means: 12 students

Solving (b):

Given

7\frac{1}{2} / 2

Required

Select all equivalent multiplication equations

Let ? be the quotient of t 7\frac{1}{2} / 2

So, we have:

7\frac{1}{2}/2 = ?

Multiply through by 2

2 * 7\frac{1}{2}/2 = ? * 2

7\frac{1}{2} = ? * 2

Rewrite as:

? * 2 = 7\frac{1}{2}  --- This is 1 equivalent expression

Apply commutative law of addition:

2 * ? = 7\frac{1}{2}  --- This is another equivalent expression

A geometry teacher asked Charlene to define “acute triangle.” Charlene said that an acute triangle is a triangle whose three int
Slav-nsk [51]
By definition we have to:
 Acute triangle - It is a triangle that has all acute angles. An acute angle is one whose degree of measurement is less than 90.
 Therefore, Charlene's definition is correct.
 Charlene said:
 triangle is a triangle whose three interior angles have measures less than 90 °
 Answer:
 C.Yes, because this definition fits all acute triangles and does not fit triangles that are not acute.

Ricardo has a square hot tub. He wants to build a square pool next to it that is a dilation of the hot tub using a scale factor
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The length of one side of the hot tub is 4.8ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Square

k = 5 -- scale factor

B'C' = 24

Required

Side length of ABCD (the hot tub)

From the question, we understand that

ABCD \to D_5 \to A'B'C'D  ABCD dilated by 5 to A'B'C'D

This implies that:

BC * 5 = B'C' i.e. the sides of ABCD is multiplied by 5 to get A'B'C'D

So, we have:

BC * 5 = 24

Divide by 5

BC = 4.8

Bentley is working two summer jobs, making $18 per hour lifeguarding and making $8 per hour clearing tables. In a given week, he
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find how much Bentley gets from clearing tables.

5 hours • $8 per hour = $40 total

We can take $40 off his $180 total, leaving the rest for when we figure out how much he needs to work lifeguarding.

$180 needed - $40 earned = $140 left to earn

We know that Bentley makes $18 an hour lifeguarding, so in order to get the number of hours he would need to work in order to make $140, we can divide it by $18.

$140 needed ÷ $18 per hour = 7.77...

We need to convert this to a whole number because we're talking about hours worked, so Bentley would need to work 8 hours lifeguarding to make $140 more. He can only work 15 hours total, so let's check if this exceeds his limit.

5 hours clearing tables + 8 hours lifeguarding = 13 hours < 15 hours max

It is possible to make $180 total from this work schedule, so your answer would be 8 hours.
