What does it mean for an equation to express y in terms of x
Answers
This is also known as constant of variation.
So, lets give an example
y = 4 and x = 2
If y = 8, what does x equal?
4*2 = 8 y = 8
x = 2 2*2 = 4
x = 4
We solve for the missing value based on the other value.
A spinner has 3 equal sections that are red,white,and blue. What isthe probality of not landing on blue!?
Answers
So 3/3 of the sections are colors, and 1/3 of the sections are blue, which means the probability of the spinner landing on NOT blue is 2/3.
The probability pf landing on blue is 25%
Diya and Leo both write the decimal 2.15 repeating as a fraction. Diya's fraction: 97/45 Leo's fraction: 97/5 Who wrote the correct fraction?
Answers
We can solve this without counting too much, like this:
When we look st Diya's fraction: it's about 2 : you can see that the top number is about twice as big as the lower one (compare 90 and 40 for this, 90 is a little more than twice 40)
When we look at Leo's fraction: 97 is a lot more than twice 5!!! To simplify compare 90 and 5: it is definitely at least 10 times bigger (actually 18).
So even if we just "look at" the fractions; Leo's fraction seems too big to be 2.(15).
In fact, his fraction is equal to 19.4
Diya was right!
(and 97/45 is exactly 2.(15).
Need help with # 17 don't understand it
Answers
the answer is 1/4 bella thought it was 2/4 because she divided by two then got 2/4.use 4 to find out urethane answer.
The answer is 1/2 because if you divide 4 from 4/8 u get 1/2
What are the two numbers and how did you figure it out?
Answers
do those 2 equaiton you did minus x on top
y=10-x sub for y x(10-x)=12 distribute 10x-x^2=12 minus (10x-x^2) both sides 0=x^2-10x+12
use quadratic formula in form ax^2+bx+c=0 x=
a=1 b=-10 c=12 x= x= x= x= x=
x= or
aprox
x=1.39445 or 8.60555 those are the 2 numbers since x and y can switch
I would make a list of the factors of 12. 1 and 12; 2 and 6; 3 and 4. However none of these add to 10. I would talk to a teacher about this one, since none of the answers are apparent at the moment. I will keep working.
