Answer:

13/8

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

5/8 - x = -1

-x = -1 - 5/8

John had 2⁄3 of his homework complete, Sarah had 5⁄10, Alex 7⁄8, and Michelle 1⁄2. Who completed the most of the homework assign
yuradex [85]
Hey there!

So, when finding who completed more, we would want to find the lowest denominator, but also, we would have to compare it with the numerator.

John: He completed 2/3, which is basically almost done.

Sarah: She only completed (half) of her homework.

Alex: He only did 7/8

Michelle: He/she only did 1/2, which is only half.

So, from looking at these fractions above, Michelle and Sarah are out.

We would just have to determine, which is finished more, John or Alex.

John had 2/3 & Alex 7/8

So, by comparing them both, 7/8 would be greater because the smaller the denominator is, and the closer that the numerator is to the denominator, this would mean that the homework is almost finished.

Your correct answer is Alex, he has completed more.

Hope this helps you!

Explain the answer boy step <br> -7x-3x+2=-8x-8<br><br><br><br> -8-x=x-4x
brilliants [131]
1. simplify -7x-3x+2 to -10x+2
 -10x+2=-8x-8
2. add 10x to both sides
2=-8x-8+10x
3. simplify -8x-8+10x to 2x-8
2=2x-8
4. add 8 to both sides
2+8=2x
5. simplify 2+8 to 10
10=2x
6. divide both sides by 2
10/2=x
7. simplify 10/2 to 5
5=x
8. switch sides
x=5

1. simplify x-4x to -3x
-8-x=-3x
2. add x to both sides
-8=-3x+x
3. simplify -3x+x to -2x
-8=-2x
4. divide both sides by -2
-8/-2=x
5. two negatives make a positive
8/2=x
6. simplify 8/2 to 4
4=x
7. switch sides
x=4
hope this helps

Answer:

1.25 \times  {10}^{2} = 125

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{5 \times  {10}^{6} }{4 \times  {10}^{4} }  =  \frac{5}{4}  \times  \frac{ {10}^{6} }{ {10}^{4} }  = 1.25 \times  {10}^{2} = 125

Help!!!!!! algebra 1
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

f(8) = 195

Step-by-step explanation:

When the x if f(x) is replaced with an 8, this just means that it is the eighth term. All you really have to do is replace every X in the function to find the answer.

f(8) = 3 + 3(8)²

f(8) = 3 + 3(64)

f(8) = 3 + 192

f(8) = 195

Hope this helps!
