A team of runners is needed to run 1/4 mile relay race. If each runner must run 1/16 mile. How many runners will be needed?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct answer is that there will be four runners needed. We canwork this out in the following way - if every runner runs a sixteenth ofa mile, then you need to work out how many sixteenths are in a fourth.You can establish this by converting the fraction so it becomesequivalent. 1/4 can be multipled by 4 to equal 4/16th, so therefore ifthere are four 16ths in one 1/16th, you will need four runners.

A line contains (4,2) and (0,1) what is the equation of the line

Answers

First we need to find the slope of the line.

Slope = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) = (2 - 1)/(4-0) = (1)/(4)

Our equation of the line will be in the form of y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We have found the slope. All we need to find is the y-intercept. Luckily, they gave us the y-intercept!

The y-intercept can be found when x = 0. And one point they gave us is (0,1). That means the y-intercept is 1.

The equation of the line is 

y = (1)/(4)x + 1
When you need the equation of a line, you need to find the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b). the slope is fairly easy to find, we simply find the second y- the first y divided by the difference of the second x and the first x. this will look like
(1-2)/(0-4)= 1/4. that is our slope. next we need to find the y-intercept, that is when x=0. for this problem we are actually given it with the second point (0,1) that means our y-intercept is 1. now we have the everything we need for the equation y=mx+b. we know that m=1/4 and b=1, so we can plug that in and get y=1/4x+1

In a finsh tank, 75% is female finshes. The rest are male. Female fishes are also 5 more than twiceof the male fishes. How many female and male fishes in the tank?
(Set up the rational equation, and solve for x!) PLEASE HELP ME

Answers

Answer:

5 Male fishes, and 15 Female fishes

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two unknowns: The number of lady fishes (let's represent this number with "L"), and the number of male fishes (let's name this unknown number "M"). So now we need to create two equations to help us solve for these unknowns.

Use the actual sentences they give you to create the equations:

a) "75% of the total number of fishes are female"

Notice that the total number of fishes is the addition of the number of ladies plus the number of males; that is the total is "L+M". According to the sentence, 75% (which in math terms is written as "0.75") of this total number equals the number of lady fishes:

0.75 \,*\,(L+M)=L

now we work a little the algebra indicated in this equation to simplify it a bit:

0.75 \,*\,(L+M)=L\n0.75\,L+0.75\,M=L\n0.75\,M=L-0.75\,L\n0.75\,M=0.25\,L\nL=( 0.75\,M)/(0.25)\nL=3\,M

which tells us that the number of lady fishes is 3 times thenumber of male fishes.

b) Now the second equation based on the words:

"Lady fishes are 5 more than twice the male fishes"

"Twice the male fishes" can be written as: "2M"

so now we write this sentence as:

L=2\,M+5

Now we combine the two equations by using in the second one the replacement for "L" in terms of "M" that we found in the first equation (that is: "L = 3 M") , so we obtain an equation with just one unknown (M) and we can solve for it:

L=2\,M+5\n3\,M=2\,M+5\n3\,M-2\,M=5\nM=5

Which tells us that the number of male fishes in the tank is "5".

We can use now our first simplified equation to find the number of lady fishes:

L=3\,M\nL=3\,(5)\nL=15

So, there are 15 female fishes in the tank.

What greater 9.526 or 95.26

Answers

95.26 is greater than 9.526
How do we conclude that 95.26>9.526?
We divide the question into parts:
The numbers before the decimal were the ones i compared
9 is definitely less than 95
Further Details: 
But in some other cases such as:
98.35 and 98.46
Which is greater?
98.35<98.46
The numbers after the decimal is what we compare here since 98 is equal.
46 is greater than 35

95.26>9.526 or you can divid this numbe by 100 and the numbe r which are came greater is great and vice versa
