ANSWER

\text{The final estimate for the expression is }\frac{11}{24}

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION

Given information

\text{Estimate }\frac{10}{12}\text{ - }\frac{3}{8}

To estimate the above expression, we need to find the factors of the denominators to get the LCM

Factors of 12 = 2 x 2 x 3

Factors of 8 = 2 x 2 x 2

From the above factors, the LCM is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24

Therefore, LCM is 24

\begin{gathered} \frac{\frac{10}{12}\text{ - }\frac{3}{8}}{24} \\  \\ =\text{ }\frac{\text{ 24(}\frac{10}{12})\text{ - 24(}\frac{3}{8})}{24} \\  \\ =\text{ }\frac{2(10)\text{ - 3(3)}}{24} \\ =\frac{20\text{ - 9}}{24} \\ =\text{ }\frac{11}{24} \end{gathered}

Answer:

"interquartile range", abbreviated "IQR", is just the width of the box in the box-and-whisker plot. ... The IQR tells how spread out the "middle" values are; it can also be used to tell when some of the other values are "too far" from the central value.

Samantha puts an initial $500 into a savings account. The account has a 4% annual compound interest rate. What is the function t
Licemer1 [7]
I use a bit of a different looking formula.

A(t)=P(1+r/n)^nt

P=amount of money. (500)
r= rate (in decimal. 4%=0.04)
n=number of times per year (1 in this problem)
t=amount of time. (5 years)

Plugged in it looks like this:

A(t)=500 (1+ 0.04/1)^1x5

Then I put it into my calculator like this:

0.04/1+ 0.04

Then add one to the above answer:

0.04+1=1.04

Then raise the above answer to the 1x5:

1.04^5=1.2166......

Then multiply the above answer by 500:

1.2166.... x 500=608.3264512

She has $608 after 5 years.

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.

Which of these ordered pairs is a solution to the inequality
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

(1, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you replace y and x with (1 and -1) you have -1 - 2^1 < -3

And that equals -3 if solved. The sign says equal to or less than, so you answer is (1, -1)
