When dividing fractions, like 1/5 divided by 3/4 what do we do?
Answer:
we cry bc math is hard JKK unless ?
but fr we can write out an equation by doing (1/5 ÷ 3/4) and then switch the sign to multiplication and we can keep the first fraction the same (in this case 1/5) and then we flip the second fraction BUT when we flip the second fraction upside-down we have to change the symbol to multiplication (1/5x4/3)
then after that all we do is multiply the denominators and numerators :)
1 x 4 = 4
_______
5 x 3 = 15
answer would be 4/15
A fraction is a way to describe a part of a whole. The result of the division of the fraction is 4/15.
What is a Fraction?A fraction is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25.
The division of two fractions is carried out by multiplying the dividend fraction(Numerator) by the reciprocal of the divisor fraction(Denominator).
The divisions of the given fractions are carried out as shown below.
1/5 ÷ 3/4
[tex]=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{5}}{\dfrac{3}{4}}\\\\\\= \dfrac{1 \times 4}{5 \times3}\\\\=\dfrac{4}{15}[/tex]

Jason has $2.25 worth of dimes and quarters. He has twice as many dimes as quarters. Determine the number of dimes and the number of quarters that Jason has.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number of dimes=x
and number of quarters=y
x=2y
0.10 x+0.25 y=2.25
or 10x+25y=225
divide by 5
2x+5y=45
2 ×2y+5y=45
4y+5y=45
9y=45
y=45/9=5
x=2y=2×5=10
Hence dimes=10
quarters=5
Polly stacked the tins from five boxes of cat food onto an empty shelf in a supermarket. There were 15 tins of cat food in each box. At the end of the week there were 20 tins left on the shelf. The rest of the tins had been sold. Write the number of boxes of cat food that had been sold, as: (a) A mixed number (b) An improper fraction
Answer:
(a) [tex]3\frac{2}{3}[/tex] boxes of cat food had been sold.
(b) [tex]\frac{11}{3}[/tex] boxes of cat food had been sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question,
Polly stacked the tins from five boxes of cat food onto an empty shelf and there were 15 tins of cat food in each box. That is,
5 × 15 tins of cat food were stacked onto the empty shelf.
5 × 15 = 75
Hence, 75 tins of cat food were stacked onto the empty shelf.
Also, from the question,
At the end of the week there were 20 tins left on the shelf and the rest of the tins had been sold, that is
75 - 20 tins had been sold
75 - 20 = 55
Hence, 55 tins of cat food had been sold.
To determine the number of boxes of cat food that had been sold,
Since there are 15 tins of cat food per box, then
we will divide 55 tins of cat food that had been sold by 15 tins of cat food per box
55 ÷ 15 = [tex]\frac{55}{15}[/tex]
Hence, [tex]\frac{55}{15}[/tex] boxes of cat food had been sold
(a) As a mixed number
[tex]\frac{55}{15} = 3\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Hence, [tex]3\frac{2}{3}[/tex] boxes of cat food had been sold.
(b) As an improper fraction
[tex]\frac{55}{15} = \frac{11}{3}[/tex]
Hence, [tex]\frac{11}{3}[/tex] boxes of cat food had been sold.
Accrotime is a manufacturer of quartz crystal watches. Accrotime researchers have shown that the watches have an average life of 26 months before certain electronic components deteriorate, causing the watch to become unreliable. The standard deviation of watch lifetimes is 4 months, and the distribution of lifetimes is normal. A button hyperlink to the SALT program that reads: Use SALT. (a) If Accrotime guarantees a full refund on any defective watch for 2 years after purchase, what percentage of total production will the company expect to replace? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. % (b) If Accrotime does not want to make refunds on more than 6% of the watches it makes, how long should the guarantee period be (to the nearest month)? months
Answer:
a
[tex]P(X < 24 )= 21.186\% [/tex]
b
[tex]x = 19.78 \ months[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mean is [tex]\mu = 26 \ months[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 4 \ months[/tex]
Generally 2 year is equal to 24 months
Generally the percentage of total production will the company expect to replace is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(X < 24 )= P(\frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma} < \frac{24 - 26}{4} )[/tex]
Generally [tex]\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } =Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of \ X )[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 24 )= P(Z < -0.8 )[/tex]
Generally from the z-table
[tex]P(Z < -0.8) = 0.21186[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X < 24 )= 0.21186[/tex]
Converting to percentage
[tex]P(X < 24 )= 0.21186 * 100[/tex]
=> [tex]P(X < 24 )= 21.186\% [/tex]
Generally the duration that should be the guarantee period if Accrotime does not want to make refunds on more than 6% is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]P(X < x) = P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma} < \frac{x - 26}{4} )= 0.06[/tex]
=> [tex]P(X < x) = P(Z < \frac{x - 26}{4} )= 0.06[/tex]
From the normal distribution table the z-score for 0.06 at the lower tail is
[tex]z = -1.555[/tex]
So
[tex]\frac{x - 26}{4} = -1.555[/tex]
=> [tex]x = 19.78 \ months[/tex]

The equation of the line shown in the graph is y = 4x / 5 -2.
What is the slope of the line?The slope of the line is a tangent angle made by line with horizontal. i.e. m =tanx where x in degrees.
Here,
Points located on the graph that lies on the line are (0, -2), and (2.5, 0)
The slope of the line is given as,
m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
Substitute the value in the above equation,
m = 0+ 2 / 2.5 -0 = 20/25
m = 4 / 5
The equation of the line is given as
y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)
Substitute the one point (-2, 0) and m in the above equation,
y + 2 = 4/5 (x - 0)
y = 4x / 5 -2
Thus, the equation of the line shown in the graph is y = 4x / 5 -2.

c. XY=20 YZ=12
d.m∠1=90 m∠2=90
Step-by-step explanation:
a. the area of a rectangle is length×width so to find the possible sizes for L and W we need to list the factors (multiplication of two numbers to get 64) of 64, which are,
1 AND 64 (this answer is suitable but it's better to choose another
one if available for more accuracy)
2 AND 32 (this is a good answer to use)
4 AND 16 (this one already used in the question)
8 AND 8 (this answer will be wrong as the sizes need to be different because it's a rectangle but it will be good for square)
SO we will choose 2 AND 32 for the answer and we can put them in any order we want.
b. first of all acute angles are angles measured less than 90 degrees. so to have at least one angle not acute we use measures up to 90 degrees.
I will put one answer as 100 degrees (note you can use any number above 90 to not be an acute angle) and the other answers will be two numbers add up to be 80 degrees (and again you can choose any numbers for that).
c. the two answers should add up to be 32 so for this counterexample we can choose any two numbers to have the sum of 32 (remember that 16+16 already chosen in the question.
d. two supplementary angles are two angles add up to be 180 degrees so for this question we need to find two angles sum to 180 and not obtuse (that mean 90 degrees or less) and the only answer can appear is 90+90=180.

Mikel has a chance to win a trip on a TV game show. All he has to do is win the “Shopping Game". In
this game, Mikel is shown six grocery store items without being shown the prices. He must buy
multiples of items until he has a total between $20 and $21 inclusive. If he doesn't reach $20 with his
first item, he continues buying items and adding to his total, until he either wins by getting an amount
between $20 and $21, or he loses by going over $21 or by buying all items and being less than $20.
First, Mikel buys six bottles of shampoo.
Solve the inequality. Round each answer to the hundredths place.
Answer:
$20 <= X < = $21
Step-by-step explanation:
You are told that he loses by going over $21 or by buying all items and being less than $20.
That means the total amount of the items bought must be equal to 20 dollars or 21 dollars or be within the two amount of money.
If Mikel buys six bottles of shampoo, x represents the total amount for the six bottles of shampoo. Then, the compound inequalities for this expression will be x less than or equal to 21 dollars and x greater than or equal to 20 dollars. That is,
$20 <= X < = $21
Suppose Jane's mother replaces the six bags of trail mix. She also provides the group with 18 cans of juice. Each snack pack has the same number of apples, bags of trail mix, and cans of juice. What is the greatest number of snack packs Jane can make? Explain.
Answer:
six[6] snack packs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Without mixing words, let's dive straight into the solution to the question above. So. the mathematics principle behind this question is what is known or refer to as Greatest Common Factor. The term ''Greatest Common Factor'' with acronym GCF means the highest factor in the set of numbers given.
In this question, we are given that there are 18 cans of juice, 24 apples and 36 small bags of mix trails in order to make snack packs. Thus, we have three set of values or numbers that is 18, 24 and 36. Hence, the question/problem require us to determine the greatest number of snack packs Jane can make that is to find/determine the Greatest Common Factor.
STEP ONE: DETERMINE OR LIST OUT THE FACTORS FOR THE THREE SET OF VALUES GIVEN, THAT IS 18, 24 AND 36.
The factors of 18 = 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 18.
The factors of 24 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24.
The factors of 36 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36.
STEP TWO: DETERMINE THE GREATEST FACTOR COMMON TO THE THREE LISTS.
For the three lists, the greatest factor common to them is 6.
Therefore, The greatest number of snack packs Jane can make is six[6] snack packs

Using the trigonometric identity
cos(- x) = cosx and exact value cos60° = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Given
f(x) = - 2cosx , then
f(- 300° )
= - 2cos(- 300)°
= - 2cos(300)°
= - 2cos(360 - 300)°
= - 2cos60°
= - 2 × [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
= - 1
