Answer:

  00:13  mm:ss

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 60 seconds in a minute. This fact can be used to convert the time period(s) to minutes and seconds either before or after you do the subtraction.

<h3>Difference</h3>

It is often convenient to do arithmetic with all of the numbers having the same units. Here, we are given two values in seconds and asked for their difference.

  100 s - 87 s = (100 -87) s = 13 s

The difference between the two time periods is 0 minutes and 13 seconds.

<h3>Conversion</h3>

If you like, the numbers can be converted to minutes and seconds before the subtraction. Since there are 60 seconds in a minute, the number of minutes is found by dividing seconds by 60. The remainder is the number of seconds that will be added to the time in minutes:

  87 seconds = ⌊87/60⌋ minutes + (87 mod 60) seconds

  = 1 minute 27 seconds

  100 seconds = ⌊100/60⌋ minutes + (100 mod 60) seconds

  = 1 minute 40 seconds

Then the difference is found in the same way we would find a difference involving different variables. (A unit can be treated as though it were a variable.)

  (1 min 40 s) -(1 min 27 s) = (1 -1 min) + (40-27 s) = 0 min 13 s

The difference between the two time periods is 0 minutes and 13 seconds.

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

x<6/5, x>14/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps

$5\left|x-2\right|+4>8$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}4\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$5\left|x-2\right|+4-4>8-4$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$5\left|x-2\right|>4$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5$

$\frac{5\left|x-2\right|}{5}>\frac{4}{5}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$\left|x-2\right|>\frac{4}{5}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:absolute\:rule}:\quad\mathrm{If}\:|u|\:>\:a,\:a>0\:\mathrm{then}\:u\:<\:-a\:\quad\mathrm{or}\quad\:u\:>\:a$

$x-2<-\frac{4}{5}\quad\mathrm{or}\quad\:x-2>\frac{4}{5}$

Show Steps

$x-2<-\frac{4}{5}\quad:\quad x<\frac{6}{5}$

Show Steps

$x-2>\frac{4}{5}\quad:\quad x>\frac{14}{5}$

$\mathrm{Combine\:the\:intervals}$

$x<\frac{6}{5}\quad\mathrm{or}\quad\:x>\frac{14}{5}$
