Explain your reasoning for why -3/4 is less than 5/8

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-3/4 and 5/8

bc it's a negative number and not a positive number. When numbers are negative, the number keeps getting smaller and smaller. And when you add a positive number to a negative number, then the number will start increasing it's value.

ind an expression for the nth term (t_n) in each of the following​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\pink{\tt\longmapsto The \ nth \ term \ of \ the \ sequence\ is \ given \ by \ frac{1}{n}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence is given to us is , and we need to find expression for nth term of the sequence. The given sequence is ,

[tex]\bf 1 , \dfrac{1}{2},\dfrac{1}{3},\dfrac{1}{4},\dfrac{1}{5},\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]

When we flip the numbers , we can clearly see that the number are in Harmonic Progression.

That is when we flip the numbers they are found to be in Arithmetic Progression .

And nth term of an Harmonic Progression is :-

[tex]\boxed{\purple{\bf T_{(Harmonic \ Progression)} = \dfrac{1}{a+(n-1)d}}}[/tex]

Hence here

Common difference = 1First term = 1 .

Substituting the respective values,

[tex]\bf\implies T_{n}= \dfrac{1}{a+(n-1)d} \\\\\bf\implies T_{n} = \dfrac{1}{1+(n-1)1}\\\\\bf\implies T_n = \dfrac{1}{1+n-1}\\\\\bf\implies\boxed{\red{\bf T_{n}=\dfrac{1}{n}}}[/tex]

Hence the nth term of the given sequence is given by ¹/n .

Answer: 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Line 1: 4x-6y= -6 Line 2: -3y=2x+5 Line 3: y= -3/2x-5 Are line 1 and 2: parallel, perpendicular, or neither? Are line 1 and 3: parallel, perpendicular, or neither? Are line 2 and 3: parallel, perpendicular, or neither?

Answers

Answer:

Line 1 and line 2 are neither parallel nor perpendicular

Line 1 and 3 are perpendicular to each other

Line 2 and line 3 are neither parallel nor perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation

Given the equations of the line

Line 1: 4x-6y= -6

Line 2: -3y=2x+5

Line 3: y= -3/2x-5

Before we can know which line is parallel or perpendicular to each other, we need to find their slope first

For line 1:

4x-6y= -6

Write in standard form y = mx+c

-6y = -4x - 6

Divide through by -6

-6y/-6 = -4x/-6 - 6/-6

y = 2/3 x + 1

The slope of line  1 is 2/3

For line 2:

-3y=2x+5

Divide through by -3

-3y/-3 =2x/-3 + 5/-3

y = -2/3 x - 5/3

The slope of this line is -2/3

For line 3:

y= -3/2x-5

this is already written in standard format. The slope of this line is -3/2

Note that for two lines to be parallel, they must have the same slope

For two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slope must be -1

For line 1 and line2, we can see that their slope are not the same and the product is not -1, hence both lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular

For line 1 and line 3, we can see that their slope are not the same but the product of their slope is -1 (2/3 * -3/2 = -1), hence both lines are perpendicular.

For line 2 and line 3, we can see that their slope are not the same and the product is not -1, hence both lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular

In May 2007, the price of crude oil was at 61$ per barrel. A year later it was at 126$ per barrel. So ,If the price of the oil continued to climb at this rate , will barrel 1 have cost more than 200$ in December 2008? answer using ax+by=c​

Answers

Answer:

Yes, it will cost $204.30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in May 2007 the price of a barrel of crude oil was $ 61, and a year later it rose to $ 126, to determine the rate of increase we must perform the following calculation:

61 = 100

126 = X

(126 x 100) / 61 = X

206.55 = X

206.55 - 100 = 106.55

Therefore, a barrel of crude oil rose 106.55% in one year, which implies a rise of 8.87% per month (106.55 / 8.87). Given that December is 7 months apart, maintaining this average increase, the price of a barrel of crude oil in December 2008 arises from the following calculation:

8.87 x 7 = 62.15

126 x 1.6215 = 204.30

Therefore, maintaining this average increase, as of December 2008 a barrel of crude oil will cost $ 204.30.

On a 4 sided dice what is the probability that a 1 was rolled?

Answer (round) to the hundredth place value.

Answers

Given:

A 4 sided dice is rolled.

To find:

The probability of getting 1.

Solution:

A 4 sided dice is rolled.

On a 4 sided dice, the possible outputs are 1,2,3,4.

Total number of outcomes = 4

Favorable outcomes or number of 1 = 1

Now,

[tex]\text{Probability of getting 1}=\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Probability of getting 1}=\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Probability of getting 1}=0.25[/tex]

Therefore, the probability of getting 1 is 0.25.

Answers

Answer:

number of guest tickets, g, is 100 tickets

number of student tickets, s, is 125 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

total number of tickets sold, t = 225 tickets

cost of each guest ticket,  = $5.5

cost of each student ticket, = $3.5

total cost of the tickets, Tc = $987.5

number of guest tickets = g

number of student tickets, = s

g(5.5) + s(3.5) = 987.5 ------- (1)

g + s = 225 ----------- (2)

From equation (2); s = 225 - g

Substitute the value of g in equation (1)

5.5g + 3.5(225 - g) = 987.5

5.5g + 787.5 - 3.5g = 987.5

5.5g - 3.5g = 987.5 - 787.5

2g = 200

g = 200 / 2

g = 100 tickets

Then, s = 225 - g

s = 225 - 100

s = 125 tickets

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the linear graph of y = 2x - 1 and passes through the point (-1, 1)?
A. O y=-3x+
B. O y = 2x - 3
CO y = 2x
DO y = 2x + 3

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line that is parallel to the linear graph of y = 2x - 1 and passes through the point (-1, 1) will be:

[tex]y=2x+3[/tex]

Hence, option D is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that linear function can be represented using the slope-intercept formula

y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Given the equation

y = 2x - 1

comparing with the slope-intercept form y = mx+b

Hence, the slope of the line y = 2x - 1 is: m = 2

We know that the parallel lines have the same slopes.

Thus, the slope of the equation of the line that is parallel to the linear graph of y = 2x - 1 will also be: 2

Using the point-slope form of the line equation

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

where m is the slope of the line and (x₁, y₁) is the point

substituting the values of the slope = 2 and the point (-1, 1)

[tex]y-1=2\left(x-\left(-1\right)\right)[/tex]

[tex]y-1=2\left(x+1\right)[/tex]

Add 1 to both sides

[tex]y-1+1=2\left(x+1\right)+1[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]y=2x+3[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the line that is parallel to the linear graph of y = 2x - 1 and passes through the point (-1, 1) will be:

[tex]y=2x+3[/tex]

Hence, option D is true.
