used 1/3 yard of ribbon to tie a package and 1/6  yard of ribbon to tie a bow how many yards of ribbon did jamal use

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The total amount of yard Jamal used is 1/2 yard              

  • Amount of yard he used to tie a package = 1/3 yard
  • Amount of yard he used to tie a bow = 1/6 yard

Further Explanation

To determine the overall amount of yards of ribbon that Jamal used, the amount of yard he used to tie a package and the amount he used to tie a bow will be added; the derived value is the total amount of yard he used.

Therefore,

= 1/3 + 1/6

= (2+1)/6

= 3/6

= 1/2 yard (Further broken down to this)

The above values are fractions. A fraction is a number that has a part of a whole. It always has a numerator and denominator. Numerators are number values that are always on top, while denominators are number values that are always at the bottom

To derive the final answer (1/2), both denominators (3 and 6) Lowest Common Denominator was factored out which is (6), and is used to divide both denominators, then multiplied by the numerators. The derived values were added to get another fraction which was finally broken down to arrive at the final answer.

Significantly, the order of operations i.e. BODMAS was made use of. BODMAS is an acronym of Bracket, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction.

Explain why it does not matter what letter or symbol is used to find an unknown number

Answers

A variable represents an unknown quantity.  No matter which variable you use, it will represent the same unknown quantity, and the same process will be used to solve the problem.  Which variable you use is irrelevant.
It's because the letter represents a number, so it doesn't matter what letter.

Mathew rolls a number cube labeled with the numbers 1−6. He then flips a fair coin. What is the probability that he rolls a 4 and flips a head?

Answers

Answer: 0.083


Step-by-step explanation:

Numbers on cube=6

faces on coin=2

Therefore, the total outcomes=6*2=12

Now, the favorable outcome that he rolls a 4 and flips a head=1

The probability that he rolls a 4 and flips a head=\frac{\text{favorable outcome}}{\text{total outcome}}

⇒The probability that he rolls a 4 and flips a head=(1)/(12)=0.083333\approx0.83.

Therefore, The probability that he rolls a 4 and flips a head=0.083

ANYONE get this?? HElp if you can!!Solve each given equation and show your work. Tell whether it has one solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solutions, and identify each equation as an identity, a contradiction, or neither. a) -2x + 16 + 5x = 9x + 20 - 6x - 4
b) 3x – 14 + 4x = 30 + 5x
c) 2x + 6 = -x + 10 + 3x – 4

Answers

Answer:

A) Any value of  x  makes the equation true.  All real numbers  Interval Notation:  (−∞,∞)

B) Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.  x  =  22

C) Any value of  x  makes the equation true.  All real numbers  Interval Notation:  ( −∞,∞)

A and C are identities and have infinite solutions, while B is neither, and has one solution.
