The number a is less than the number b by 1/5 of b. By what part of a is b greater than a? Need help ASAP. Have to get this done in 20 minutes.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number b is bigger than the number a by 1/4 of a.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number a is smaller than the number b by 1/5 of b, then

a + 1/5b = b.

Thus,

a= b - 1/5b= 4/5,

b= 5/4 a.

Consider the Expression b=5/4a:

b=5/4a= 4/4a+ 1/4a= a +1/4a

This gives that the number b is bigger than the number a by 1/4 of a.

If you spun the spinner 1 time, what is the probability of landing on either a white piece or a gray?
the circle in the picture has 3 gray and 5 white
there are 9 pieces in total

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{8}{9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So, there are 8 pieces with color and 1 piece without the wanted color.

The equation for finding the probability is:  [tex]\frac{sum of terms }{number of terms }[/tex]

Therefore: 3 + 5 = 8  and 9 pieces in total

What value of y makes the equation 6(x-4)+2 = 36/4 true?

Answers

Answer:

31/6

Step-by-step explanation:

36/4=9

6x-22= 9

6x= 9+22

substitute 6x=31= 31/6

Answer:

x = 31/6

Step-by-step explanation:

first lets isolate the equation which equals, 6x-24+2 = 9

I got 9 from 36/4, divide top and bottom by 4 = 9

Next add the numbers, 6x -24+24= 9 turns into 6x-22= 9

Now move the -22 to the side the 9 is, 6x= 9+22

and now we can solve and substitute, 6x=31, which gives us 31/6

The mode of the daily data is 12 cups.

How to identify skewed graph?

A skewed distribution is a distribution having bias on one of the two sides (either left or right).

It is like leaning mountain on one side (left or right).

A left skewed graph have elongated tail on the left side of the main mountain like figure. The mountain like figure is after that elongated tail. It is also called negatively skewed graph. This graph usually has mean < median < mode.

A right skewed graph has elongated tail on the right side of the main mountain like figure. The mountain like figure is before that elongated tail. It is also called positively skewed graph. This graph usually has:

Mode < median < mean.

We are given that;

The bar graph show 8cups on monday, 12 cups on tuesday, 10 cups on wednesday, 16 cups on thrusday, 12 cups on friday, 14 cups on saturday and 18 cups on sunday.

Now,

The mode of a set of data is the value that occurs most frequently.

Looking at the bar graph, we can see that the values 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 all occur once, but only one value occurs more than once, which is 12 cups on Tuesday and Friday.

Therefore, by skewed distribution the answer will be 12.

what divided by 4 is 8?

Answers

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

If the question is x (standing for an unknown number) divided by 4 equals 8, then 8 times 4 should equal that unknown number.

x / 4 = 8

x / 4 (*4) = 8 (*4)

x = 32

We now can replace x with our number and see if this answer is valid.

x / 4 = 8

32 / 4 = 8

And yes, it is true. Therefore, 32 divided by 4 is 8.
