9) How many 2/5 s can you get from 4/5?​

Answers

Answer 1

2/5 + 2/5 = 4/5

So, 2

Answer 2
“How many 2/5 are in 1?”

I love the easy ones!

The real math folks generally ignore them I guess because the easy ones are not worth their time, leaving said easy ones to dilettantes like me, who then look smarter-than-I-really-am to the noobies.

Love the easy ones.

So, to the question: How many two-fifths are in one?

Well now. How shall we handle this? Hmm…

I know! Let's count the fifths (just numbers, no booze), because it's probably as good a way of getting to an answer as any other way, the question is about fifths, and counting the fifths will at least give us a picture of what we're dealing with here.

Let's jump ahead, to see where we want to end up:

We want to end up with five fifths, also known as 5/5, because 5/5 is the same as 1. How do I know that 5/5 is the same as 1? Well, I know (you'll just have to trust me on this) because saying “5/5” is the same as saying “5 divided by 5”, and saying “1/2” is the same as saying “1 divided by 2", and so on. This is true for all fractions.

So: if 5/5 is the same as 5 divided by 5, then 5/5 equals 1. (You can see why, right? Any number divided into itself is equal to one; also, five goes into five exactly one time!).

And counting the fifths,

1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 = 5/5 = 1

Or, to count them another way,

1/5 + 1/5 = 2/5

2/5 + 1/5 = 3/5

3/5 + 1/5 = 4/5

4/5 + 1/5 = 5/5

Now that we can see what's inside of that 5/5, let's count how many two-fifths are in five-fifths by adding 2/5 together until we get as close to 5/5 as possible without going over:

2/5 + 2/5 = 4/5

leaving just 1/5 remainder, meaning that there are two 2/5 in 5/5.

We can see that that is true and correct by looking at our little counting exercise above.

Now to make sure our reasoning is clear let's count our fifths again, this time slightly rearranging the way we write the numbers, and then taking things one step further:

(1/5 + 1/5) + (1/5 + 1/5) + 1/5 = 5/5

(2/5) + (2/5) + (1/5) = 5/5

And there it is: there are two 2/5 in 1!

So let's complete the addition for the sake of those like myself who need to see these things through to their furthest conclusion:

(2/5) + (2/5) + (1/5) = 5/5

4/5 + 1/5 = 5/5

5/5 = 5/5

5/5 = 1

1 = 1. And 2/5+2/5=4/5.

c) If the spinner is spun another 1000 times,
about how many times would you expect it to land on blue?

Answers

Answer:

A) 60

B) 72/300

C) 150

Step-by-step explanation:

A) P(green) = ⅕

⅕ × 300 = 60

B) purple: 72

45+37+52+94+72 = 300

Therefore, 72/300

C) 1000 × (45/300)

150

a, The number of times is 60.

b. The probability for landing should be [tex]72/300[/tex]

c. The number of times is 150.

Calculation of the number of times and probability:

Since

a. The spinner shown is spun 300 times

and, the probability of green should be like [tex]1/5[/tex]

So here one-fifth of 300 should be 60.

b. The probability is

First the total be like

= 45+37+52+94+72

= 300

Now the probability is

=  [tex]72/300[/tex]

C) The number of times should be

[tex]= 1000 * (45/300)[/tex]

= 150

what’s the equation?

Answers

Answer:

The equation is;

y = 2x^2 -8x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form can be written as;

a(x-h)^2 + k

(h,k) represents the coordinates of the vertex

In this case, we have this as (2,4)

The value of a is positive as the parabola opens up and it is the axis of symmetry

It is the x value that divides the graph into 2

Thus, we have x as = 2

so the equation of the graph will be;

2(x-2)^2 + 4

2(x^2 - 4x + 4) + 4

= 2x^2 -8x + 8 + 4

= 2x^2 -8x + 12

5(x - 1) and 5x - 1
is it equivalent ​

Answers

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x - 1) = 5x - 5

5x - 1 = 5x - 1

No, it is not equivalent

The required, 5(x - 1) and 5x - 1 are not equivalent expressions.

Let's expand 5(x - 1):

5(x - 1) = 5 * x + 5 * (-1) = 5x - 5

On the other hand, 5x - 1 is already in its simplified form.

As you can see, the expressions 5(x - 1) and 5x - 1 have different forms. The first expression involves distributing the 5 to both terms inside the parentheses, while the second expression is already simplified and cannot be further combined.

For example, if we substitute x = 2 into both expressions, we get:

5(2 - 1) = 5 * 1 = 5

5 * 2 - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9

Since 5 and 9 are not equal, it confirms that the two expressions are not equivalent.

Answer:

y = -80x + 410

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,330) is the first point, the other point is (4,90)

m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

m = 90 - 330/4 - 1

m = -240/3

m = -80/1

m = -80

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 330 = -80(x - 1)

y - 330 = -80x + 80

y = -80x + 80 + 330

y = -80x + 410

will be
(a) 2,600
(b) 2,700
(c) 2,800
(d) 3,000
with steps

Answers

Correct option :[tex]= \color{plum}\bold{(b) \: 2,700}[/tex]Steps to derive answer :

Selling price of a bicycle = 2850

Profit percentage = 14%

We know that :

[tex]\color{plum}\tt{Cost \: \: price = \frac{Selling \: \: price \: \times \: 100}{100 \: \: + \: \: profit \: \%} }[/tex]

Then, the cost price of this bicycle :

[tex] = \tt \frac{2850 \times 100}{100 + 14} [/tex]

[tex] = \tt \frac{285000}{114} [/tex]

[tex] =\color{plum} \tt2500[/tex]

Thus, the cost price of this bicycle = 2500

In another scenario :

Profit percentage = 8%

Cost price of the bicycle = 2500

Then, Selling price will be equal to :

Let x be the selling price of the bicycle.

[tex] = \tt2500 = \frac{\: x \: \times 100}{100 + 8} [/tex]

[tex] = \tt2500 = \frac{100x}{108} [/tex]

[tex] =\tt 100x = 2500 \times 108[/tex]

[tex] = \tt100x = 270000[/tex]

[tex] =\tt x = \frac{270000}{100} [/tex]

[tex] =\color{plum}\tt x = 2700[/tex]

Therefore, the selling price with a profit of 8% will be = 2700

Given,

Value of y decreases as the value of x increases and vice versa.

Also, x and y are nearly linearly related.

Cost = $24

The online store sells at $22 per pair plus a shipping fee of $6 per order

let the number of orders be x

Cost= 22+6x

For 1 order

the online store will cost

Cost= 22+6*1

Cost= 22+6

Cost= $28

For 2 orders

The local shop cost

Cost= 24*2= $48
