To make the problem simpler, turn it to an improper fraction.
-7/2--49/48
-7/2+49/48
They have to have same dnominator to add.
-168/48+49/48
-119/48
Answer:44
Step-by-step explanation:
Just you the proportions:
so you will get (20*33)/15 which is equals to 44
Answer:
242 pages.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent number of pages that Claudia read last week.
We have been given that Claudia is reading a book that has 360 pages. She read some of the book last week. She plans to read 46 pages today. When she does,she will be 4/5 of the way through the book.
The number of total page left after reading 46 pages and x pages last week will be equal to 4/5 of 360.
We can represent this information in an equation as:

Let us solve for x.




Therefore, Claudia read 242 pages last week.
10,000+5,000+400+9
fifteen thousand four hundred and nine
Answer:
The length of diagonal is 4.922 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width be = w
Let the diagonal be = d
Let the length be = l
Given is that the diagonal measures three times the width, this gives: 
Also given is the length of the plywood is three feet more than the width. This is : 
Now, in terms of x we get:
Width = x
Length = (x+3)
Length of Diagonal = 3x
Now applying Pythagorean Theorem



Solving this we get,
We will use quadratic formula to solve this and get the answer,
x = 3/7 +/- (12√2) / -14
x = 1.64075 or x = -0.783612(neglect this negative value)
So, x = 1.64075 feet
Now length of diagonal is 3x = 3*1.64075 = 4.922 feet
So, length of diagonal is 4.922 feet.
