6 0

Answer:

It is the closest to 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by giving them all the same denominator.

1/2 = 3/6

1 = 6/6

0 = 0/6

The difference of 1/6 from 1/2 is 2/6.

The difference of 1/6 from 6/6 is 5/6.

The difference of 1/6 from 0/6 is 1/6.

Since the last difference is the smallest, 1/6 is the closest to 0.

Jessica, Lauren and Kimmie were paid a total of $120 for babysitting in a ratio of 2:3:5. How much less did Jessica make than Ki

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Jessica makes $36 less than Kimmie

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> amount paid to Jessica

y ----> amount paid to Lauren

z ----> amount paid to Kimmie

we know that

$x+y+z=120$ ------> equation A

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{2}{3}$

$x=\frac{2}{3}y$ -----> equation B

$\frac{y}{z}=\frac{3}{5}$

$z=\frac{5}{3}y$ -----> equation C

substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for y

$\frac{2}{3}y+y+\frac{5}{3}y=120$

$\frac{10}{3}y=120$

$y=120(3)/10$

$y=36$

<em>Find the value of x</em>

$x=\frac{2}{3}(36)=24$

<em>Find the value of z</em>

$z=\frac{5}{3}(36)=60$

therefore

The amount paid to Jessica was $24

The amount paid to Lauren was $36

The amount paid to Kimmie was $60

To find out how much less Jessica did than Kimmie, subtract the amount paid to Jessica from the amount paid to Kimmie.

$\$60-\$24=\$36$

therefore

Jessica makes $36 less than Kimmie

A particle moves along the curve below. y = √ 3 + x 3 y=3+x3 As it reaches the point ( 1 , 2 ) (1,2), the y y-coordinate is incr

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The x-coordinate of the point changing at ¼cm/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = √(3 + x³)

Point (1,2)

Increment Rate = dy/dt = 3cm/s

To calculate how fast is the x-coordinate of the point changing at that instant?

First, we calculate dy/dx

if y = √(3 + x³)

dy/dx = 3x²/(2√(3 + x³))

At (x,y) = (1,2)

dy/dx = 3(1)²/(2√(3 + 1³))

dy/dx = 3/2√4

dy/dx = 3/(2*2)

dy/dx = ¾

Then we calculate dx/dt

dx/dt = dy/dt ÷ dy/dx

Where dy/dx = ¾ and dy/dt = 3

dx/dt = ¾ ÷ 3

dx/dt = ¾ * ⅓

dx/dt = ¼cm/s

The x-coordinate of the point changing at ¼cm/s
