Miles is planning to spend 2/3 as many hrs bicycling this week as he did last week. Is Miles going to spend more hrs or fewer hrs bicycling this week than last week? ( I'm working on comparing fraction factors and products- multiplying fractions)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: He would be spending less time because  2/3 is not a full number. Let's make an equation out of the: 2/3(m). Note: 3(2) means 3 times 2 and the m is the amount of miles biked last week. We could insert the number 3 to our equation. 2/3(3). Now if you do it the proper way, it is 2/3(3/1) and if you do the math it is 6/3 aka 2. And 2 is less than 3. So it is less time spent
Answer 2
Answer: miles is going to spend less hours this week

a ski resort has 3 chair lifts each access to 6 ski trails. explain how you can find the number of possible outcomes when choosing a chair lift and a ski trail without making a list

Answers

Answer: Hello there!

in this problem, we have two things to choose, the chair lift and the ski trail, with 3 options for the chair lifts, and 6 options for the ski trails.

The total number of combinations is obtained by multiplying the number of options for each one of the things that we have to choose; in this case, it is 6*3 = 18 total combinations.

Multiply 3 times 6 and then you get 18 all of the possible outcomes

4^2 + 5 • 3^2 – 4^2 ÷ 2^3

Answers

Following the order of operations:
4^2 + 5 * 3^2 – 4^2 / 2^3
16 + 5 * 3^2 – 4^2 / 2^3
16 + 5 * 9 – 4^2 / 2^3
16 + 5 * 9 – 16 / 2^3
16 + 5 * 9 – 16 / 8
16 + 45 – 16 / 8
16 + 45 – 2
61 – 2

Given B is the midpoint of AC, what is AC ?

A. 54
B. 27
C. 6
D. 18

Answers

A. 54

The fact that B is the midpoint means that AB = BC so you can set up the equation of
4x+3 = 3x+9

Then solve for x by subtracting 3 from the left and 3x from the right to get

X=6

Finally, plug that back in to your line and solve for the total value

4(6) + 3 + 3(6) +9 = 54

A construction worker bought several bottles of juice for $3 at the convenience store. She paid for them with a $20 bill.If "J" represents the number of bottles of juice,write an expression for the change she should receive. Solve.Show each step.

Answers

Each bottle of juice costs $3, so to find the total price of the bottles, you would have to multiply the number of bottles by $3, or:
3×J

Since she paid for them with a $20 bill, you need to subtract the total price of the bottles (shown above) from 20. Let's say "y" is the amount of change she receives:
y=20-(3×J)


Keith spent 1/5 of this money on a story book. He gave $26.80 to his brother and had 1/2 of his money left. How much money did he have left?

Answers

Not really sure of this one but i think it's like this- 
2/10 (money for story) + 3/10 (26.80 dollars to brother)= 1/2 of his money
3/10x=26.80  268=3x ; x= 89.33333....
89.33 X 5/10= answer
money left= (roughly) 44.67
1/5 = 2/10
1/2 = 5/10

2/10 of his money on a story book.
Storybook is the variable x

$26.80 to his brother (5/10 of his money left)

5/10-2/10 = 3/10

$26.80x3/10= 8.04

He had $8.04 left.
