you have a 20 ounce bottle of juice. you pour out 1/4 of the bottle to share with a friend. if your our out 3 ounces for yourself, what fraction of the 20 ounces will be left in the bottle?

Answers

12 ounces will be left in the bottle

Turn the 1/4 into a decimal which is 0.25 and times that by 20 and you’ll get 5, 5 is the amount of ounces you poured for your friend. Subtract 20 ounces by 5 ounces and you’ll get 15 ounces, then subtract 15 by 3 which is the amount of juice you poured for yourself and you’ll be left with 12 ounces in the bottle.

To determine the remaining fraction of juice in the bottle, subtract the poured amount from the original 20 ounces. The fraction left in the bottle is 3/5 of the original 20 ounces.

To find the fraction of juice left in the bottle:

Start with 20 ounces.

Pour out 1/4 for a friend, which is 5 ounces (1/4 of 20).

Pour out 3 more ounces for yourself.

Subtract the total poured out (5 + 3 = 8) from the starting amount (20) to find what's left.

So, 20 - 8 = 12 ounces left in the bottle, which represents 3/5 of the original 20 ounces.

Answers

Answer: 10%, 0.5, 3/4


Step-by-step explanation:

What you want to do is convert them all to one unit. The eaisest would be a decimal.

Starting off with .5, it's already in decimal form.

Next go to 10%. 10% as a decimal will be 0.1, because its 1/10.

Lastly, go to 3/4. 3/5 as a decimal would be 0.75.

Putting them in order from least to greatest would be 10%, 0.5, 3/4.

(Hope that helps)

Answer:

10%, 0.5, 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is actually quite simple, all you need is a quick calculation.

I'm going to convert all of the numbers to decimals for the easiest comparison.

put 3/4 into a calculator, and you get 0.75

0.5 is already a decimal

and with percents, you just move the decimal point back two, making it 0.1


Now you have an easy way to compare: 0.1 is the least, 0.5 is next, the 0.75 is the largest.

At the half-time show, a marching band marched in formation. The lead drummer started at a point with coordinates (2,-5) and moved 3 steps up and 1 step right.

a. Write a rule to describe the translation.
b. what were the coordinates of the drummer's final position?

Answers

start at -2 on the y axis then go to the left 5

(2,-5) (3,-3)

Answer: a) (x, y) → (x + 1, y + 3)

              b) (2, -5) (3, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

the x-axis goes left and right, so 1 step to the right means you need to add 1 unit to the x-coordinate.

the y-axis goes up and down, so 3 steps up means you need to add 3 units to the y-coordinate.

Rule:

If original x-coordinate is x, then the new coordinate is x + 1 (x → x+1)

If original y-coordinate is y, then the new coordinate is y + 3 (y → y+3)

Final position:

If original x-coordinate is 2, then the new coordinate is 2 + 1 (2 → 3)

If original y-coordinate is -5, then the new coordinate is -5 + 3 (-5 → -2)

Charlie gave 1/4 c to Peter.  Now

Charlie has c - (1/4) c

Peter gave 2/5 of his to Charlie. Now

Peter has p + (1/4) c - 2/5( p + (1/4) c )

Charlie has c - (1/4) c + 2/5( p + (1/4) c )

And then they had equal number:

c - (1/4) c + 2/5( p + (1/4) c ) = p + (1/4) c - 2/5( p + (1/4) c )

Let's do the easy subtractions then multiply by 20 to clear the fractions,

(3/4) c + 2/5( p + (1/4) c ) = 3/5( p + (1/4) c )

15c + 8p + 2c = 12p + 3c

14c = 4p

5x - 7y =58

y =-x +2


Using the substitution method, replace y in the first equation with the second equation:

5x - 7(-x+2) = 58

Simplify by using the distribution property:

5x - (-7x) - 14 = 58

Simplify by combining like terms:

12x -14 = 58

Add 14 from each side of the equation:

12x = 72

Divide both sides by 12:

X = 72/12

x = 6


Now you have x, replace x in the second equation and solve for y:

y = -x +2

y = -6 +2

y = -4


X = 6, y = -4

It is important because while some quadratics are factorable and can be solved not all are. The formula will solve all quadratic equations and can also give both real and imaginary solutions.  Using the formula will require less work than finding the factors if factorable. We will substitute a=5, b=4 and c=-1.

The Pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2, is used to calculate the side length of a right triangle. Which equation can be used to calculate the missing side length, b, of a right triangle?

Answers

Answer:

D b = sqrt(c^2 -a^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are using the Pythagorean theorem,

a^2+b^2=c^2

We want to solve for b

Subtract a^2 from each side

a^2 -a^2+b^2=c^2-a^2

b^2 = c^2 -a^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(c^2 -a^2)

b = sqrt(c^2 -a^2)

Answer:

answer A : b=√(c-a)

Step-by-step explanation:

a²+b²=c²

subtract a² from both sides to isolate b²

b²=c²-a²

take the square root of both sides to get from what b² equals to what b equals

b=√(c-a)

For the equation 2x^3 -11x^2 + 12x + 9 = 0 , the root 3 has a multiplicity of
A. 1
B. 2
C. 3

Please explain!

Answers

Answer:

B. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplicity of a root is the number of times it occurs as a root.

We must solve the equation to find the number of times 3 occurs as a root.

Since we know that 3 is a root, we can use synthetic division to find the other roots.

f(x) = 2x³ -11x² + 12x + 9

3|2   -11     12     9

 |       6    -15    -9

  2   -5      -3      0

So, (2x³ - 11x² + 12x +9)/(x - 3) = 2x² - 5x – 3

=====

Let’s use synthetic division again to see if 3 is a root of this quadratic

3|2    -5    -3

 |       6      3

 2      1      0

So, 2x² - 5x – 3 = (x - 3)(2x + 1), and

2x³ - 11x² + 12x +9 = (x - 3)(x - 3)²(2x+1)

The factor x – 3 appears twice, so the root 3 has a multiplicity of two.

Describe how you can use compatible numbers to estimate 17 x 27

Answers

Answer:

600

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the closest number for 17 is 20, and for 27 is 30.

When we multiply those two numbers :

20*30=600

We got 600

To estimate 17 x 27 using compatible numbers, round 17 to 20 and 27 to 25, then multiply to get an estimated product of 500.

Using compatible numbers to estimate the product of 17 x 27 involves finding numbers close to 17 and 27 that are easier to multiply mentally, such as multiples of 10.

A good choice here would be to round 17 up to 20 and 27 down to 25 for the approximation.

By doing so, we simplify the multiplication to 20 x 25.

The estimated product using compatible numbers would be:

20 x 25 = 500

So, an estimated answer to 17 x 27 using compatible numbers would be 500.

This method provides a quick and easy way to estimate the result, which is particularly useful when exact calculations are not necessary, or you need a fast approximation.

Answer:


Hello :

tanA = sinA / cosA

- tan²A + 1 + sec²A  = - (sinA / cosA)² + 1 + ( 1/cosA)²

                                 = - sin²A / cos²A  + 1 + 1 /cos²A

                                 = ( - sin²A  + cos²A +1)/cos²A

                                = ( 1 - sin²A + cos²A ) / cos²A

but : 1 - sin²A = cos²A   because : sin²A + cos²A = 1

so : - tan²A + 1 + sec²A  = ( 2 cos²A) / (cos²A)

- tan²A + 1 + sec²A  = 2



How much water should we add to 35 kg of sugar syrup to change its concentration from 30% to 25%?

Answers

35kg - a mass of sugar syrup

30% of 35kg it's a mass of sugar

30% = 30 : 100 = 0.3

30% of 35kg = 0.3 · 35kg = 10.5kg - a mass of sugar

Add xkg water. Then we have (35 + x)kg of sugar syrup and still 10.5kg of sugar.

10.5kg is 25% of (35 + x)kg .

(35 + x) -- 100%

10.5  -- 25%     multiply both sides by 4

42   -- 100%

Therefore we have the equation:

35 + x = 42      subtract 35 from both sides

x = 7

Answer: We should add 7kg of water.

Which angle has a positive measure ?

Answers

Hi, I can't see the other choices so here is the information to choose the answer.The angles with an arrow that move in the counter clockwise direction have positive measure

The given angle is measured clockwise with respect to {+x} axis. So, it has negative measure.

What is angle?

An angle is formed when two rays have the same end point. The common end point is called vertex.

Given is to identify the positive angle.

Any angle measured clockwise with respect to + x axis is negative. Similarly, any angle measured anti - clockwise with respect to + x axis is negative.

Since only one angle is shown in the image, we will describe about it. It can be seen that the angle is measured clockwise with respect to + x axis. Hence, it is negative.

Therefore, the given angle is measured clockwise with respect to {+x} axis. So, it has negative measure.

Answers

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

first do 28+32.

Next it equals 60. So change 60 to percentage form. It would be 60%

ANSWER:

14% increase.

The percent of change in the amount of miles Kellie ran last week and this week, rounded to the nearest whole number, is a 14% increase.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Let % of change in Kellie's running distances from last weeks's 28 miles to this week's 32 miles = x

x = [ ( New amount - Original amount ) / Original amount ] × 100%

New amount = 32 miles

Original amount = 28 miles

THEREFORE:

x = [ ( 32 - 28 ) / 28 ] × 100%

x = ( 4 / 28 ) × 100%

x = ( 1 / 7 ) × 100%

x = 0.1428571429... × 100%

x = 14% ( rounded to the nearest whole number )

Maya wants to divide 3/4 pound box of trail into small bags. Each bag will hold 1/12 pound of trail mix. How many bags of trail mix can maya fill ?

Answers

Answer:

9 bags of trail mix

Step-by-step explanation:

I would take the fraction 3/4 and make it have a common denominator with 1/12. In order to do that, multiply each number in 3/4 by 3. It results in 9/12.

You can put 9 of 1/12 in 9/12

Final answer:

To find out the number of bags Maya can fill with 3/4 pound of trail mix, divide 3/4 by 1/12. The division equates to multiplication by the reciprocal, so (3/4) x (12/1) = 9. Therefore, Maya can fill 9 bags of trail mix.

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by division. Maya has 3/4 pound of trail mix and each small bag holds 1/12 pound of trail mix. Therefore, divide 3/4 by 1/12 to find out exactly how many bags Maya can fill.

To perform this division, you could first convert the fractions to decimals or do it directly. But let's stick with fractions and apply the principle of multiplying by the reciprocal. Change the division to multiplication and multiply 3/4 by the reciprocal of 1/12.

(3/4) x (12/1) = 9

So, Maya can fill 9 bags of trail mix.

Selecting a quarter from a bag of coins, putting it in a parking meter, and then selecting a dime from the same bag

Answers

Answer:

The first pair of events are independent, the second pair of events are independent and the third pair of events are dependent.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent events are events that do NOT rely on previous events.  So, the chances of each of event happening in a pair of events is independent, or has no effect, on the chances of the other event.  In the case of rolling a number cube and then rolling it again, your chances would be the same each time you roll the number cube as to what number you would get.  Just because you rolled a '1' on the first roll, doesn't mean you can't get the same number (or another number) on another roll.  The same reasoning applies to the coin flip and the spinner.  These two events are not related and in no way would rely on each other.  A coin flip will not affect the chances of spinning an odd number.  However, if we have several coins in a bag and select a quarter, but do not replace it, our chances of selecting another coin changes because there are not only less coins in the bag, but there are less quarters to choose from.  In the case of events with NO replacement, these events are dependent.

Circle A has a radius of 6. Which circles are congruent to circle A? Check all that apply. circle D circle E circle F circle G circle H

Answers

Answer:

circle E & circle F

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to see which circles are congruent to circle A, a circle of radius of 6 units.

The correct options are E and F.

Let's see how to solve this:

First, we need to understand what congruent figures are.

We say that two figures are congruent if they have the exact same shape and size.

Then we need to see which other circles also have a radius (distance from the center to the line) is also of 6 units. (or a diameter of 12 units)

The image of the options can be seen at the end of the answer, there, we can see that circle E has a radius of 6 units, so we know that circle E is congruent to circle A.

We also can see that circle F has a diameter (twice the radius) of 12 units, then the radius is:

R = D/2 = 12/2 = 6 units.

Then circle F is also congruent to circle A.

Then the correct options are E and F.
