Insert a rational number between 1/2 and 1/3 by mean method?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a rational number by the mean method.

Add the 2 fractions and divide the result by 2

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

To add the fractions we require them to have a common denominator.

The LCM of 2 and 3 is 6 ← required common denominator

Multiply numerator/denominator of first fraction by 3

Multiply numerator/denominator of second fraction by 2

= [tex]\frac{1(3)}{2(3)}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1(2)}{3(2)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex] ( add numerators, leaving denominator )

= [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Now divide by 2

[tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] ÷ 2 leave first, change division to multiplication, turn second upside down )

= [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]

This is the fraction midway between the 2 given fractions

Kate stands 2 meters from a lamppost. She is 2.1 meters tall and casts a shadow 3 meters long in the light from the lamp. How tall is the lamppost? See diagram below.​

Answers

Answer:

3.5 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attachment.

Since the two triangles share two congruent angles, by AA Similarity, the two triangles are similar.

Therefore, we can write the following proportion:

[tex]\frac{3}{5}=\frac{2.1}{x}[/tex]

To find the height of the lamppost x, we will simply have to solve for x.

So, let’s cross-multiply:

[tex]10.5=3x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3:

[tex]x=10.5/3=3.5[/tex]

Hence, the height of the lamppost is 3.5 meters.

Answer:

  8x +96 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths. In this case, it will be twice the sum of the overall length and the overall height.

The overall length is the sum of the two horizontal segments at top:

  (x -2) +(3x) = 4x -2

The overall height is the sum of the right-side vertical segments:

  10 + 40 = 50

Then the perimeter is ...

  P = 2(L+W) = 2((4x -2) +50) = 2(4x +48) = 8x +96

The perimeter is 8x +96 yards.

John is twice as old as Mary. The sum of their ages is 21. How old is Mary?
Let J = John's age and M = Mary's age. Select the system equations that represents the problem.
J - 2M = 0
J = M + 2
M - 2J = 0
J + M = 21

Answers

Answer:

Mary is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

If their ages combined equals 21 and john is twice Mary’s age then johns age takes up 2/3 of 21. that would b 14. 14 is 2 x 7. and Mary is 7. 14+7=21. Mary is 7 years old

Correct answers are:

J + M = 21

J - 2M = 0

Parker is in the business of manufacturing phones. He must pay a daily fixed cost to rent the building and equipment, and also pays a cost per phone produced for materials and labor. The equation C=175p+400 can be used to determine the total cost, in dollars, of producing pp phones in a given day. What is the y-intercept of the equation and what is its interpretation in the context of the problem?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  400; building and equipment fixed cost

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost equation has two terms. The constant term (400) is the daily fixed cost of building and equipment. The variable term (175p) represents the cost of producing p phones.

The y-intercept is 400. It is the daily fixed cost of the building and equipment.

Answer:

The y-intercept of the function is 400 which represents the fixed cost for rent and equipment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Parker must pay $400 even to make 0 phones, that means $400 is the fixed cost that Parker must pay for rent and equipment regardless of the number of phones produced.

Have a good day :)

Martha compra 2 kilos de tomate y 1 kilo de cebolla pagando S/ 8,40. Si la siguiente semana compra 1 kilo de tomate y 2 kilos de cebolla pagando S/ 7,80, ¿a cuánto está el kilo de cebolla?

Answers

Responder:

2,40

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado que:

Dejar :

Tomate = t

Cebolla = n

(2 kilo de t) + (1 kilo de n) = 8.40

(1 kilo de t) + (2 kilo de n) = 7.80

2t + n = 8,40 - - (1)

t + 2n = 7,80 - - (2)

De (2);

t = 7,80 - 2n

Ponga t = 7.80 - 2n en (1)

2 (7,80 - 2n) + n = 8,40

15,6 - 4n + n = 8,40

15,6 - 3n = 8,40

-3n = 8,40 - 15,6

-3n = - 7,2

n = 2,4

t = 7,80 - 2 (2,40)

t = 7,80 - 4,80

t = 3

Por lo tanto, el costo de 1 kilo de cebolla es 2,40

In a full set of permanent teeth, 1/4 of the teeth are incisors, 1/4 are premolars, and 3/8 are molars. What fraction of all the teeth are incisors, premolars, and molars

Answers

Answer:

7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

In a full set of permanent teeth, 1/4 of the teeth are incisors, 1/4 are premolars, and 3/8 are molars. What fraction of all the teeth are incisors, premolars, and molars?

To solve the above, we add all the fractions together.

= Incisors + Premolars + Molars

= 3/8 + 1/4 + 1/4

Least Common Denominator = 8

= (3 × 1 + 2× 1 + 2 × 1)/8

= 3 + 2 + 2/8

= 7/8

Hence, the fraction of all the teeth are incisors, premolars, and molars is 7/8

Answers

Answer: The number of cups of flour needed for 9 cups of sugar = 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of direct proportion between two quantities x and y :

[tex]\dfrac{x_1}{y_1}=\dfrac{x_2}{y_2}[/tex]

Let x=  the number of cups of flour needed for 9 cups of sugar.

Put [tex]x_1=4,\ y_1=3,\ y_2=9, x_2=x[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{4}{3}=\dfrac{x}{9}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{9\times4}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=12[/tex]

Two bags of bird seed are used to fill these three bird feeders. How much bird seed does each feeder use? Represent the situation using the model. Then solve

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

If two bags of bird seed are used to fill these three bird feeders, then we can say that;

2 bags of bird seed = 3 bird feeders

To know the amount of bird seed that each feeder use, we will say;

x bags of bird seed = 1 bird feeder

Equating both postulates and solving

2 bags of bird seed = 3 bird feeders

x bags of bird seed = 1 bird feeder

Cross multiply

3 * x = 2 * 1

3x = 2

subtract 2 from both sides

3x - 2 = 2-2

3x - 2 = 0

Hence model that represents the situation us 3x - 2 = 0 where x is the number of bird seed that each feeder use.

Next is to solve for x;

3x - 2 = 0

3x = 2

x = 2/3

Hence each feeder used 2/3 bird seed
