You miss 3 out of 10 questions on a science quiz and 4 out of 15 questions on a math quiz. Which quiz has a higher percent of correct anwsers.




I did 3/10 so 0.3 and 4/15 which is 0.266... so would it be the science quiz???
Please explain

Answers

Your process is close!

Since 3/10 and 4/15 is the amount you missed you have to subtract that by 1.

1 - 0.3 = 0.70
1 - 0.26 = 0.74

So, you scored higher on the math quiz.

Jack owed $12.00 in library fines.half of this was for 2 overdue videos.the rest was for 6 books that were each 20 days overdue how much did jack owe for each overdue book

Answers

1$ would be the answer. Because if half of the 12 dollar fines would be 6$. And then in order for the 6 books to equal out evenly it would have to be 1$
Jack owes $1.00 for each book. $12.00 ÷ 2 = $6. $6 ÷ 6 = 1. So your answer is $1.00.

Four friends purchase 18.4 pounds of peaches. The peaches cost $1.75 per pound. The friends share the cost of the peaches equally. How do I do this!!!!?????????

Answers

You take the cost 18.4 multiply by 1.75 to find out the total cost of the peaches then divide by 4 to split the cast and you answer should be roughly 8

Answer:

Cost per friend = 8.05 $

Step-by-step explanation:

Four friends purchase 18.4 pounds of peaches.

The peaches cost $1.75 per pound.

Total cost of peach = Total pounds x Cost of peach per pound

Total cost of peach = 18.4 x 1.75 = 32.2 $

Number of friends dividing the cost equally = 4

[tex]\texttt{Cost per friend = }\frac{\texttt{Total cost of peach}}{\texttt{Number of friends dividing the cost equally}}\\\\\texttt{Cost per friend = }\frac{32.2}{4}=8.05\$[/tex]

Cost per friend = 8.05 $

The undefined terms line and plane are needed to precisely define which mathematical term?
line segment
perpendicular lines
parallel lines
ray

Answers

The correct answer is:

parallel lines  

Explanation:

Parallel lines are two lines in a plane that never intersect.  This means the definition uses the undefined terms "line" and "plane."

The undefined terms line and plane are needed to precisely define which mathematical term will be parallel lines so option (C) will be correct.

What are a line and plane?

A line section that can connect two places is referred to as a segment.

In other words, a line segment is just part of a big line that is straight and going unlimited in both directions.

A plane is a surface that is straight in nature a plane has a certain area but in most cases.

We know that parallel line are those lines which not intersect and lies on a plane.

Hence there are two things that are needed first is a line and the second is a plane the plane should be single for both lines not different.

What is an expression?

It is defined as the combination of constants and variables with mathematical operators.

It is given that the expression is, r⋅(18−3)

We have to expand the expression in order to write the expression in the other way,

The expanding form can be used to indicate the value of each digit in a number in arithmetic. Numbers that are expressed as the sum of each digit multiplied by its place value are known as expanded numbers.

There are the different identity used in the expanded form as,Use the following identity as

a(b-c) = ab-ac

=r⋅(18−3)

=(r⋅18)−(r⋅3)

I suck a writing proofs in geometry.... please someone explain it to me, i cant seem to reconize what's going on. I need major help in properties of congruent proofs.

Answers

Congruence Properties

In earlier mathematics courses, you have learned concepts like the commutative or associative properties. These concepts help you solve many types of mathematics problems. There are a few properties relating to congruence that will help you solve geometry problems as well. These are especially useful in two-column proofs, which you will learn later in this lesson!

The Reflexive Property of Congruence

The reflexive property of congruence states that any shape is congruent to itself. This may seem obvious, but in a geometric proof, you need to identify every possibility to help you solve a problem. If two triangles share a line segment, you can prove congruence by the reflexive property.

Im going to start with my example for a. So you have to figure out how you can get to 8 from 2. So that would be 2*4=8. And whatever you do to the top, you must also do to the bottom. So for the top we multiplied by 4, so we also have to multiply the bottom by 4. So that would be 26*4=104. So your total/answer would be 8 teachers= 104 students. In another way, for f. it would be the same but you have to divide instead since 9 is bigger than 3. Hope this helped ! :)
