3*60 = 180 minutes
80/180 = 0.44
1-0.44 = 0.56
it was a 56% decrease in commute time
Answer:
sorry this does not factor out
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer for is a) x=12
Equation::
value + value = value
80x + 60(50-x) = 74*50
----
80x + 60*50 - 60x = 74*50
----
20x = 14*50
x = 35 lbs (amt. of 80 cent tea to use)
50-x = 15 lbs (amt. of 60 cent tean to use)
Answer:
13/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert these numbers to a mixed fraction.
-5 3/4 => -23/4
-2 1/2 => -5/2
Make them have a common denominator
-5/2 => -10/4
-23/4 can stay the same.
To find the distance between the two numbers, subtract the lesser value from the greater value.
-23/4 is <u>less</u> than -10/4.
(-10 - (-23)) /4
= 13/4
Therefore the distance between -2 1/2 and -5 3/4 on a number line is 13/4.
