Answer: 3 17/20 is bigger than 3 13/28

Step-by-step explanation:

2 ways:

1) Turn the fractions into decimal form.

13/28 = 0.464

0.464 + 3 = 3.464

17/20 = 0.85

0.85 + 3 = 3.85

2) Check which one is bigger

3.85 is bigger than 3.464 because the tenth place is bigger than the second number.

Second way:

1) Remove the 3s.

Both equations have three, so you could remove both sides three

3 13/28  ?  3 17/20

13/28 ? 17/20

2) Multiply both bottom expressions by itself.

(The numbers that its multiplying equals to 1. When multiplying a number by 1, it stays the same.)

13/28 * 20/20 = 260/560

17/20 * 28/28 = 476/560

3) Compare the fractions

260/560  ?  476/560

260/560  <  476/560

The number in the fraction is bigger

Answer:

No, 3 ¹³/₂₈ is smaller than 3 ¹⁷/₂₀.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert both mixed numbers into improper fractions:

[tex]\implies 3 \frac{13}{28}=\dfrac{3 \times 28+13}{28}=\dfrac{97}{28}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 3 \frac{17}{20}=\dfrac{3 \times 20+17}{20}=\dfrac{77}{20}[/tex]

The lowest common multiple of 28 and 20 is 140.

Therefore, multiply the numerator and denominator of each improper fraction by the same number to make both denominators 140:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{97 \times 5}{28 \times 5}=\dfrac{485}{140}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{77 \times 7}{20 \times 7}=\dfrac{539}{140}[/tex]

Therefore, as 539 > 485:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{539}{140} > \dfrac{485}{140}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{77}{20} > \dfrac{97}{28}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 3 \frac{17}{20} > 3 \frac{13}{28}[/tex]

Therefore, 3 ¹³/₂₈ is smaller than 3 ¹⁷/₂₀.

In the picture there is a cylinder with height 5 inches and diameter 4 inches. The surface area of cylinder is 87.62.

Given that,

In the picture there is a cylinder with height 5 inches and diameter 4 inches.

The surface area of a cylinder is the area that is enclosed by the flat bases and the curving surface of the cylinder. The cylinder's total surface area includes the area of the curving surface as well as the areas of the two circle-shaped bases of the cylinder.

The surface area of cylinder is 2πr²+2πrh

r is radius which is diameter/2

r=4/2=2

h is 5

Surface area of cylinder= 2πr²+2πrh

=2π×2²+2π×2×5

If the second evening, she received 4 times as many calls as the third evening. The first evening, she received 10 more calls than the third evening. The number of  phone calls did she receive each evening is: 30, 80, 20.

Let x , y, z represents the 1st , 2nd, and 3rd evenings respectively

X + Y + Z = 130

Y = 4Z  

X = z+10

Substituting the second and third equations into the first:

z+10 + 4z + z = 130

Combine like terms

6z + 10 = 130

Subtract 10 from both sides

6z +10 -10 = 130 -10

6z =130 -10

6z =120
Divide both side by 6z

z = 120/6

z = 20

Solving for y

y = 4z

y = 4×20

y = 80

Solving for x

x = z+10

x = 20 +10

x = 30

Answer:

Measure of Angle A is 100°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of interior angles of a polygon is given by the formula :

(n-2)×180  (where n is the number of sides)

n = 6

(6-2)×180 =  

4 × 180 = 720

So :

The correct graph that represents the solution set of the system of inequalities is in Option(b).

Inequality is a  statement of an order relationship (greater than, greater than, or equal to, less than, or less than or equal to) between two integers or algebraic expressions in mathematics.

The given system of inequalities are,

Answer:

(0,7]

Step-by-step explanation:

It is an open circle at 0 and a closed circle at 7.

The bulb is 5 inches far from the vertex of the cross section.

A portion of the right cone known as a parabola is one that runs parallel to the generating line on one side of the conic figure.

The standard equation for a parabola is typically expressed as y² = 4ax if the directrix is parallel to the y-axis, and y² = 4ax if the parabola is in the negative quadrants. The conventional equation of a parabola is x² = 4ax if the parabola is sideways, or if the directrix is parallel to the x-axis. If the parabola is in the negative quadrants, the equation is x² = 4ax.

Given, The equation x = 1/20y² can be used to model the cross section of a parabolic spotlight (with units in inches).

We must determine the distance between the bulb and the cross section's vertex.

Equation x = 1/20y² is alternatively denoted by the expression y² = 20x.

Now, comparing the equation to the parabola's conventional form, y²=4ax

So, 4a=20

a=5

Consequently, a=5 represents the distance from the cross section's vertex to the bulb.

The range of the equation of the function given as y = x^2 + 4x + 7 is y >= 3

The equation of the function is given as

y = x^2 + 4x + 7

Differentiate the function with respect to x

So, we have

y' = 2x + 4

Set the differentiated function to 0

So, we have

2x + 4 = 0

This gives

2x = -4

Divide by 2

x = -2

Substitute x = -2 in the equation y = x^2 + 4x + 7

So, we have

y = (-2)^2 - 4 x 2 + 7

y = 3

The leading coefficient is positive

This means that the vertex is a minimum

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you need to do, is find the total amount of gorillas.
to do this, you are going to use the equation:

24 + g = 7g

Both sides are equal, since the wallabies and the buffalo are equal. This makes the equation true.
you subtract g from 7g, and you should get:

24= 6g

Divide by six:

4 = g  

That is the # of gorillas.

Now, if you add 24 + 4

You get the # of buffalo.

Which is: 28

Since the buffalo and wallabies are the same, the # of wallabies is also 28.
if you want to check, multiply 4x7 to get the amount of wallabies.

Place value, which is related to a digit's location in a number, is the amount that each digit is worth.

Given:

The number is 286.

The digit in tenth place is 6.

And the number 6 is greater than the number 4.

And 6 > 4.

So, the number will round off to the nearest tenth.

6 becomes zero.

And the number left to 6 will increase by 1.

Answer:$346.8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. X - 70% = 204

Want to get the value of X

2. X + 70% = 204 + 70%

= X = 204 x 1.7

= X = $346.8

Answer:

Original Price = $680

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about what a 70% reduction in price means.

If the original price of an item is $100 then a 70% reduction would mean that it costs 70% less from the original price. This means you would be paying only 30% of the original price

Let the original price be $P

Then the price you pay after 70% reduction is 30% of P
= P x 30/100

= P x 0.3                  (30% = 30/100 = 0.3)

= 0.3P

We are given that this sale price = $204

--> 0.3P = 204

Dividing both sides by 0.3 gives us the value for P
0.3P/0/3 = 204/0.3

P = 204/0.3 = 680

So

Original Price = $680

We can double check our computations as follows

If original price = 680, then a reduction of 70% would be a discount of
0.7 x 680 = 476

Price after discount = Original Price - Discount

= 680 - 476 = 204

So our results are consistent
