what is 20/4 - 8 please help

Answers

Answer 1
To subtract fractions, find the LCD and then combine.

Answer is: -3
Answer 2

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply and divide {left to right}:

20/4 = 5

Add and subtract {left to right}:

5 - 8 = -3

{Negative + Positive = Negative}

Fraction:

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

LCD(20/4, 8/1) = 4

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

[tex](\frac{20}{4} *\frac{1}{1} )-\frac{8}{1} *\frac{4}{4} )=[?][/tex]

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

[tex]\frac{20}{4} -\frac{32}{4} =[?][/tex]

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can subtract the numerators.

Then:

[tex]\frac{20-32}{4} = \frac{-12}{4}[/tex]

Since -12 divided by 4 equals -3 then,

[tex]\frac{-12}{4}=-3[/tex]

Therefore, -3 is the correct Answer or Fraction form = -1/3

A newborn turtle has a shell with a 1-inch diameter. The shell keeps a similar shape as the turtle grows. After a year, the shell is 3 inches in diameter. Note: you do not need to know the shape of the shell to complete this question.

1. How many times greater is the volume of the turtle's shell after a year than it was when it was born?

2. How many times greater is the surface area of the turtle's shell after a year than it was when it was born?

Answers

Answer:

I think the volume would be 9 times greater, and the surface area would be 3 times greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

the volume would be 9 times greater

the surface area would be 3 times greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Because if the shell grows from 1 inch diameter to 3 inch diameter, the surface area will increase 3x more. And the volume I assume is 3x greater because of the height is presumably 3 inches as well.

a probability experiment consists of fair eight sided die find the probability of rolling number greater than 4 ​

Answers

Answer:

Find:

Probability[Number greater than 4]

Computation:

Number greater than 4;

[5,6,7,8]

Total number greater than 4 = 4

Probability[Number greater than 4] = Total number greater than 4 / Total side of die

Probability[Number greater than 4] = 4 / 8

Find the average rate of change please

Answers

Answer:

The Average rate of change of function f(x)

A(x) = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given function f(x) = x²-2

Given values x = a = -1 and  x = b =4

The Average rate of change of function f(x)

[tex]A(x) = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

Given function f(x) = x²-2

                f(a) =f(-1) = (-1)²-2 = 1-2 = -1

                f(b) = f(4) = (4)²-2 = 16-2 = 14

Step(ii):-

The Average rate of change of function f(x)

[tex]A(x) = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

[tex]A(x) = \frac{14-(-1)}{4-(-1)} = \frac{14+1}{4+1} = \frac{15}{5} =3[/tex]

Final answer:-

The Average rate of change of function f(x)

A(x) = 3

Which of the following gives the correct negation of the statement "P: x is an even number"?
Question 2 options:

A)

P: ∼x is not an even number.

B)

∼P: x is an even number.

C)

P: ∼x is an even number.

D)

∼P: x is not an even number.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is D

Step-by-step explanation:

The negation of a statement has the opposite meaning of the original statement. The negation of a statement is formed by adding the word “not”.

Consider statement P again:

P: x is greater than 9.

The negation of P is:

∼P: x is not greater than 9.

Note that the symbol ∼ is used before a statement to show that it's a negation.

The negation of the statement is x is an odd number or x is not an even number.

What is Conditional Statement?

A conditional statement is one that has the syntax "If P then Q," with P and Q denoting sentences. P is referred to as the hypothesis and Q is referred to as the conclusion for this conditional statement. The implication of "If P then Q" is that whenever P is true, Q must also be true.

We have,

P: x is an even number.

As, Negation indicates that the conditional statement's statement is false.

Conditional:  P: x is an even number.

Negation:  ~P: x is an odd number or x is not an even number.

Sally is flying a kite at an angle of 41 degrees. If the kite is 10 feet up in the air, how

long is the kite string?

Answers

Answer:

15.24feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the method of SOH CAH TOA;

Length of the kite is the hypotenuse = x

If the kite is 10 feet up in the air, then the height = 10feet (opposite)

Angle of elevation = 41 degrees

Sin theta = Opposite/hypotenuse

Sin 41 = 10/x

x = 10/sin41

x = 10/0.6561

x = 15.24 feet

Hence the kite is 15.24feet long

At a football stadium, 4% of the fans in attendance were teenagers. If there were 260 teenagers at the football stadium, what was the total number of people at the stadium?

Answers

Answer:

solution

4%=260

100%=?

=(100x260)/4

=6500

Percentage of fans in the stadium who were teenagers = 4%

Number of teenagers in the match = 260

Let the total number of people at the stadium be x.

Which means :

[tex] =\tt 4\% \: \: of \: \: x = 260[/tex]

[tex] =\tt \frac{4}{100} \times x = 260[/tex]

[tex] =\tt \frac{4 \times x}{100} = 260 [/tex]

[tex] = \tt \frac{4x}{100} = 260[/tex]

[tex] = \tt4x = 260 \times 100 \\ \tt \: \: \: = 26000[/tex]

[tex] =\tt x = \frac{26000}{4} [/tex]

Find the equation of the line
Use exact numbers

Answers

The answer is y = x - 5

Sub in 0 to find the y intercept, and count rise over run to find the slope (1)

Answer:

y = 1x + -5

Step-by-step explanation:

slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

the line touches the y-axis at -5, therefore the y-intercept, or b, is -5.

y = mx + b ⇒ y = mx - 5

now i'll find the slope by picking two points from the line and finding the change in y over the change in x, aka [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]. i'll use the points (8, 3) and (5, 0)  from the line in order to calculate the slope. (8, 3) can be my [tex]x_2[/tex] and [tex]y_2[/tex] and (5, 0) can be my [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]y_1[/tex].

first, i'm going to plug in my [tex]y_2[/tex] and [tex]y_1[/tex] values, which are the y-values from each of the coordinate pairs. since i picked (8, 3) for [tex]x_2[/tex] and [tex]y_2[/tex] and (5, 0) for [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]y_1[/tex], i will be plugging in 3 for [tex]y_2[/tex] and 0 for [tex]y_1[/tex].

[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] ⇒ [tex]\frac{3-0}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

then i'll plug in my [tex]x_2[/tex] and [tex]x_1[/tex] values, which will be 8 and 5.

[tex]\frac{3-0}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] ⇒ [tex]\frac{3-0}{8-5}[/tex]

now simplify by subtracting 0 from 3 and 5 from 8.

3 - 0 = 38 - 5 = 3

the slope is [tex]\frac{3}{3}[/tex], which simplifies to 1 because [tex]\frac{3}{3}[/tex] or  3 ÷ 3 = 1.

the slope-intercept form equation for this line is y = 1x + -5 (or just y = x - 5, but since it's a fill-in-the-blank problem, the 1 will show in front of the y and -5 will come after the + sign.)

Answer:

y = -x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation representing the table attached is,

y = mx + b

Here, m = Slope of the line

b = y-intercept

Since, slope of a line passing through two points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] is given by,

m = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

From the table attached,

Slope of the line passing through (23, -23) and (33, -33),

m = [tex]\frac{-33+23}{33-23}[/tex]

m = -1

Equation of the line will be,

y = -x + b

Since, this line passes through another point (43, -43),

-43 = -43 + b

b = 0

Therefore, equation of the line representing the table will be,

y = -x

If 4 out of 21 people prefer diet soda to regular soda, about how many regular sodas should be bought to serve 864 people, if each person
receives one soda?

Answers

~700 regular sodas to server 864 people

(the actual answer is 699.4285)

The number of regular sodas that should be bought will be 700 regular sodas.

If out of 21 people prefer diet soda to regular soda, then it means that 17 people prefer regular soda.

Since the number of people are 864 people, then the number of regular sodas that'll be bought will be:

= 17/21 × 864

= 699.42

= 700 Approximately

Therefore, the number of regular sodas that should be bought will be 700 regular sodas.
