HELP PLS.Sonia takes a 4/5-mile walk every day. What part of her walk has she completed once she has walked 3/5 mile?

1 answer:

7 0

So, the question’s a bit weird, but I’m going to assume it’s asking for what fraction of her walk she had completed:

Basically you need to divide 3/5 by 4/5

Dividing a fraction is the same as multiplying as the reciprocal of the fraction (the top and bottom get reversed)

Therefore you need to find 3/5 • 5/4

Solving this should get you 15/20, which can be simplified to 3/4.

So the answer is she has completed 3/4 of her walk (75%)

How many different ways can you write a fraction that has a numerator of 2 as a sum of fractions

Rzqust [24]

At least you can write it as the sum of half of it twice, that is:
2/x = 1/x + 1/x
whatever x number you have, for example:
2/5 = 1/5 + 1/5

But then, you can express a fraction in many different ways, for example again:
2/5 = <span>1/5 + 1/5 = 2/10 + 2/10
</span>= 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10
so there are an infinite ways of expressing such a fraction.

What would be the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints at (0,1)<br> and <br>(5,7) ?

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

(2.5, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the midpoint formula

Given endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ), then midpoint is

[0.5(x₁ + x₂ ), 0.5(y₁ + y₂ ) ]

Given

(0, 1) and (5, 7), then

midpoint = [ 0.5(0 + 5), 0.5(1 + 7) ] = (0.5(5), 0.5(8)) = (2.5, 4)

On a timed session please help I have one more question after this.....

The coffee shop used 52 pounds of Type A coffee.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of Type A coffee per pound = 5.25

Cost of Type B coffee per pound = 4.10

Total pounds used in blend = 142

Total cost = 642.00

Let,

x be the pounds of Type A coffee used

y be the pounds of Type B coffee used

According to given statement;

x+y=142 Eqn 1

5.25x+4.10y=642.00 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 4.10

$4.10(x+y=142)\\4.10x+4.10y=582.20\ \ \ Eqn\ 3$

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

$(5.25x+4.10y)-(4.10x+4.10y)=642.00-582.20\\5.25x+4.10y-4.10x-4.10y=59.80\\1.15x=59.80\\$

Dividing both sides by 1.15

$\frac{1.15x}{1.15}=\frac{59.80}{1.15}\\x=52\\$

The coffee shop used 52 pounds of Type A coffee.
