Convert each fraction shown to decimal form
5/9 = 0.555557/16 = 0.43750 8/15 = 0.53333 6/11 = 0.54545 14/23 = 0.60870With the exception of 7/16 = 0.43750, the other decimal values are approximate.
From that list, we can see the decimal representations of 7/16, 8/15, and 6/11 are all smaller than the decimal version of 5/9. So we rule out choices A, B, and C. The answer must be choice D.
Sure enough, 14/23 = 0.60870 is indeed larger than 5/9 = 0.55555
---------------------
We can show this another way:
First off, assume that 14/23 and 5/9 are equal. We'll cross multiply and show a contradiction happens
14/23 = 5/9
14*9 = 23*5
126 = 115
The contradiction happens since we should get the same value on both sides if the two sides were equal, but they're not equal.
If we replace each equal sign with a greater than sign, then we get,
14/23 > 5/9
14*9 > 23*5
126 > 115
You can think of it like working backwards up the chain.

Mary wants to buy candies with an amount of money she has in her pocket.  we know that if she had $3.20 more money she could buy 120 candies. While if she had $2.40 less money she could buy 85 candies. What is the price per candy?
Answers
Answer:
the price per candy is $0.16
and she has $16.00 in her pocket.
Step-by-step explanation:
x = the money in her pocket.
y = the price per candy
x + 3.2 = 120×y
x - 2.4 = 85×y
y = (x - 2.4)/85
=>
x + 3.2 = 120×(x - 2.4)/85 = (24x - 57.6)/17
=>
(17x + 17×3.2)/17 = (24x - 57.6)/17
17x + 54.4 = 24x - 57.6
54.4 = 7x - 57.6
112 = 7x
x = 16
y = (16 - 2.4)/85 = 13.6/85 = 0.16

The frequency n of vibration of a stretched string is a function of its tension F, the length l and the mass per unit length m. From the knowledge of dimensions, prove that, n∝1/l √f/m
Pls fast
Answers
Answer:
n ∝ (1/l) (√F/m)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since frequency, n of vibration of a stretched string is a function of its tension F, the length l and the mass per unit length m, and has dimensions [T]⁻¹ where T = time, its dimension must be equal to that of the combination of F, L and m
Since n = f(F,L,m)
n = kFᵃLᵇmˣ
dimension of n = (dimension of F)ᵃ × (dimension of L)ᵇ × (dimension of m)ˣ
Since n = frequency, dimension of n = [T]⁻¹
F = Force, dimension of F = [M][L][T]⁻²
Also, L = length, dimension of L = [L] and
m = mass per unit length, dimension of m = [M][L]⁻¹
So, n = FᵃLᵇmˣ
[T]⁻¹ = ([M][L][T]⁻²)ᵃ( [L] )ᵇ([M][L]⁻¹)ˣ
[T]⁻¹ = ([M]ᵃ[L]ᵃ[T]⁻²ᵃ[L]ᵇ([M]ˣ[L]⁻ˣ
[M]⁰[L]⁰[T]⁻¹ = ([M]ᵃ ⁺ˣ)([L]ᵃ ⁺ ᵇ ⁻ˣ)([T]⁻²ᵃ)
equating the exponents on both sides, we have
a + x = 0 (1 )⇒ x = -a
a + b - x = 0 (2) ⇒
-2a = -1 (3) ⇒ a = 1/2
Substituting x into 2, we have
a + b -(-a) = 0
a + b + a = 0
2a + b = 0
b = -2a
b = -2 (1/2)
b = -1
x = -a = -1/2
So, substituting the variables into n, we have
n = kFᵃLᵇmˣ
n = kFᵃLᵇmˣ
[tex]n = kF^{\frac{1}{2} }L^{-1}m^{-\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]
n = k/l(√F/m)
n ∝ (1/l) (√F/m)

Answer:
16a^12 b^16
Step-by-step explanation:
that's the answer. just multiply out the powers
Answer:
16*(a^12)*(b^16)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we can split these term into three separate terms.
[tex]{(2 {a}^{3} {b}^{4})}^{4} = {2}^{4} \times {( {a}^{3}) }^{4} \times {( {b}^{4} )}^{4} [/tex]
2 to the power of 4 is 16.
[tex] {2}^{4} = 16[/tex]
As for the terms a and b, the two exponents can multiply with each other.
[tex] {( {a}^{3} )}^{4} = {a}^{(3 \times 4)} = {a}^{12} [/tex]
[tex] {( {b}^{4} )}^{4} = {b}^{(4 \times 4)} = {b}^{16} [/tex]
Now, we can directly multiply the values together by combining into one term.
Hence, the final answer is
[tex]16 {a}^{12} {b}^{16} [/tex]

The length of a rectangle is 3 cm more than its breadth. If the perimeter of the
rectangle is 46 cm, find the length and the breadth.
Answers
Answer:
breadth = 10 cm
length = 13 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
so,
perimeter = 46cm
2(l+b) = 46cm
or, 2(3+b+b) = 46cm ( because l = 3+b)
or, 2(3+2b) = 46cm
or, 6 + 4b = 46cm
or, 4b = 46cm - 6
or, 4b = 40cm
or, b = 40/4 cm
so, b = 10 cm
now,
l = 3cm + b
l = 3 cm + 10cm
= 13cm
Answer:
Let us assume the breadth of the rectangle be 'b' cm.
So length of the rectangle will be b+3 cm.
Now
Perimeter =46
[tex] \large \mid\orange {2(l + b) = 46}[/tex]
[tex] \large \mid\orange {2(b+3+b)=46}[/tex]
[tex] \large\mid \orange {2(2b+3) = 46}[/tex]
[tex] \large\mid \orange {4b + 6 = 46}[/tex]
[tex] \large \mid \orange{4b = 46 - 6}[/tex]
[tex] \large\mid \orange {4b = 40}[/tex]
[tex] \large \mid \orange{b = \frac{40}{4} }[/tex]
[tex] \large\mid \orange {b = 10}[/tex]
[tex] \large \orange{l=b+3= \:10 + 3 = 13 cm }[/tex]

Answers

Answer:
C. -2.00 m/sec
Step-by-step explanation:
The average velocity on the interval [a, b] is found by ...
m = (s(b) -s(a))/(b -a)
One end of the interval remains constant here, so we can define 'd' so that the interval is [4, 4+d]. Then the average velocity is ...
m = (s(4 +d) -s(4))/((4 +d) -4)
m = (s(4+d) -s(4))/d
The attached table shows the average velocity values on the intervals required by the problem statement. Respectively, they are ...
-1.5 m/s, -1.7 m/s, -1.9 m/s, -1.99 m/s, 2.01 m/s, 2.1 m/s, 2.3 m/s, 2.5 m/s
We expect the instantaneous velocity at d=0 to be the average of the values at d=-0.01 and d=+0.01. We estimate the instantaneous velocity at t=4 seconds to be -2.00 m/s.

State the hypotheses for testing whether there is a positive correlation between these variables in the population of all students at this university.b. Calculate the value of the test statistic.c. Determine the p-value as accurately as possible.d. State the test decision for the α= .10 and α= .05 significance levels, and summarize your conclusion in context.e. If the sample size was much larger, and the value of the sample correlation coefficient stayed the same, describe the impact on your test statistic, p-value, and conclusion.
Answers
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Sample size, n = 39
Correlation Coefficient, r = 0.273
The hypothesis test to examine if there is a positive correlation :
H0 : ρ = 0
If there is a positive correlation, then ρ greater than 1
H0 : ρ > 1
The test statistic :
T = r / √(1 - r²)/(n - 2)
T = 0.273 / √(1 - 0.273²)/(39 - 2)
T = 0.273 / 0.1581541
T = 1.726
The Pvalue using a Pvalue calculator can be be obtained using df = n - 2, df = 39 - 2 = 37
The Pvalue = 0.0463
α= .10 and α= .05
At α= .10
Pvalue < α ; Hence, we reject H0 and conclude that a positive correlation exists
At α= 0.05 ;
Pvalue < α ; Hence, we reject H0 and conclude that a positive correlation exists
