Five less than twice a number

Which of the following translates the phrase above into a mathematical expression?

We are told to find the area of the pizza given its diameter. The pizza is in circular form, and its area is found as:

However, we are not given r, which is the radius of the circle. But we can find it from the given diameter as

Substituting r=8 in the equation of the area of a circle

Thus, the area of the pizza is 64  in2.

NOTE:  (Pi) remains as a symbol because values of Pi can vary from 22/7 to 3.1415 to 3.14 and so forth.

We need to find how many mL are in 2.5 teaspoons. We need to use dimensional analysis to solve this problem as follows.

Converting between teaspoon and mL uses the following conversions:

Or

We want to end up with mL, we utilize the second conversion and set up the following equation.

Thus, 2.5 teaspoons can hold 12.325 mL.

the question requires we find the cost of two syringes.

If we let x be the cost of two syringes, then we set up a proportion equation with cost as numerator and number of syringes as denominator. The proportion equation becomes

Cross-multiply to solve for x

Rearranging the above

Divide both sides by 35

The cost of 2 syringes is $32.

we need to find the net income of the nurse in 4 weeks from the weekly net income.

Weekly net income=gross income-total tax

Total tax=federal income tax+state income tax+Social Security tax

Total tax=$(83.00+38.00+79.00)

Total tax=$200.00

Weekly net income=$(800.00-200.00)=$600.00

In one week, the net income of the nurse is $600.00 and in 4 weeks the nurse will a net income of:

The nurse will earn $2,400.00 in 4 weeks after taxes are deducted.

The initial step is to convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

4.4 becomes 44/10

4.25 becomes 425/100

Thus, the set of fractions is 9/2, 44/10, 10/3, 425/100. The least common denominator for 2, 10, 3, and 100 is 300, which we use to compare each options given.

9/2*300=1350

44/10*300=1320

10/3*300=1000

425/100*300=1275

From the above, 1350 is the greatest value which corresponds to 9/2. Thus, 9/2 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

To find the true statement we need to analyze the given statements.

For statement 1: the points per game decreased five times between 1996 and 2015. So, the statement is false.

For statement 2: the lowest points scored per game was in 1998-99 season. So, the statement is false.

For statement 3: 2008-09 was the season the chargers scored the greatest number of points per game. So, this statement is true.

a ratio can be converted to a fraction of the form a/b, where b is not equal to zero. In ratio form, to means per.

From the given information, the class has 15 girls and 13 boys. Thus, the ratio of girls to boys becomes:

In ratio form, girls: boys=15:13

Thus, the ratio of girls to boys in a class of 28 students is 15 to 13.

we need to form a mathematical expression from the given word problem.

Let the number be x.

Twice a number=2x

Five less than twice a number=2x-5

So the mathematical express from the word problem is 2x-5

The initial step is to establish the relationship between area of a circle and the radius. The area of the circle is given by the formula

Now, substituting the 49 π in2 in place of A in the equation above becomes:

We want to find r, therefore, we rearrange the equation as

Divide both sides by

Take square root both sides of the equation

The radius of the circle is 7 in, and the circumference of the circle is determined as follows

Substituting the value of r=7 becomes

Thus, the circumference of a circle whose area is 49  in2 is 14
