-3/5, -0.9, -1.9, -8/3

Of the number listed above, which number is the greatest?

In this case, we use a calculator to estimate the positive square root of 42.

Then, multiplying the square root above with 6 becomes

Then, the approximate value of 6 time the positive square root of 42 is 38.9.

The slope represents the ratio of rise to run. Let p be the minimum length of the ramp, we can set a ratio equation as follows. Then,

The minimum length of the ramp needed is 18 feet to access to a door that is 1.5 feet above the sidewalk.

A dependent variable is one that changes when another variable changes. In this case, the cost of the phone will change depending on the change inbrand name, size of the RAM, and size of the battery. Thus, cost of a phone is a dependent variable.

To find the greatest number from the given set, we first convert the decimal numbers into fractions.

12.35 becomes 1235/100

11.46 becomes 1146/10

Then, the LCM for the denominators of the given fractions of 2, 100, 3 and 10 is 300. Now we multiply each fraction with 300, which we will use to compare the give set.

25/2*300=3750

1235/100*300=3705

40/3*300=4000

1146/10*300=3438

From the calculated values, 4000 is the greatest value. Then, 40/3is the greatest value.

This problem asks us to compare the number of dimes to nickels.

If we let p be number of pennies in the bottle. Then,

Number of quarters in the bottle = 4p

Number of nickels in the bottle = 2p

Number of dimes in the bottle =7(2p)=14p

To find the number of dimes the child has than nickels, we use the ratio:

\(\frac{Dimes}{nickels} =\frac {14p}{2p}\ =\ 7\)

Thus, there are 7times as many dimes as nickels in the box.

notice that the question compares the cup of flour and the cup of milk. We can therefore set up our ratios as cup of floorcup of milk. If we let the x be the number of cups of milk needed, then

As a mixed fraction, 70/3 becomes 23 1/3, which represents the number of cups of milk needed to make a big batch of 5 cups.

The SI units of measuring length is meter. However, a meter can be a large unit or small quantity depending what is being measured. Therefore, derived units of meters are used to measure the length of an object. In our case, centimeters is the appropriate unit to measure the width of the window.

An independent variable is a variable that is manipulated or changed in the experiment. From the given equation, x is variable that is changed to obtain the desired outcome, F(x). Therefore, x is an independent variable.

we are asked to find the percent change in weight gain of a person.

First, we need to find the change in weight gained over the 4 months

Change in weight= 186-176=10 lb

The percent change is expressed as change in weight over original weight *100. Then

The percent change in weight is 6% to the nearest whole number.

We are asked to find the fraction of pizza the three friends shared equally.

First, the whole pizza is represented by 1. If one friend ate a quarter of the pizza, then:

First friend eats =1/4 of 1=1/4*1=1/4

Remaining fraction of the pizza=1-1/4=3/4

Now, the three friends share 3/4 amongst themselves equally. So, each friend gets

The three friends each gets 1/4 of the pizza.
