What is the difference? 5/3-1/2A. 4B. 7C. 7/6D. 7/0 = undefined

1 answer:

5 0

The answer is: [C]:  " ⁷/₆ " .
____________________________________
Note:
____________________________________
(5/3) - (1/2) = ? ;
____________________________________
The LCD (lowest common denominator) of "2 and 3" is "6" ;

So we need to rewrite EACH fraction in the problem as a fraction with "6" in the denominator ;
____________________________
(5/3) = (?/6) ? ; (6÷3=2) ; (5/3) = (5*2)/(3*2) = 10/6 ;
____________________________
(1/2) = (?/6) ? ; (6÷2=3) ; (1/2) = (1*3)/(2*3) = 3/6 ;
____________________________
Rewrite the problem: "   (5/3) - (1/2) " ; as:
____________________________
10/6 - 3/6 ;
____________________________________________
  10/6 - 3/6 = (10 - 3) / 6 = (7/6) = 1 ⅙ .
____________________________________________
The answer is: " ⁷/₆ " ; or, write as: " 1 ⅙ " ; which corresponds to:
______________________________________________________
Answer choice: [C]: " ⁷/₆ " .

The Associative Property say that it doesn't matter how we group the numbers (i.e. which we calculate first) when we add

(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)

The Commutative Property say we can swap numbers over and still get the same answer when we add

a + b = b + a

The Distributive Property:

a(b + c) = ab + ac

------------------------------------------

-3a + 4b + 5a + (-7b) = -3a + 5a + 4b + (-7b)

Does the table show a direct proportional relationship? If so, what is the constant of proportionality?

lesantik [10]

Answer:

C. Yes, 3.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there is a relationship of direct proportionality for every ordered pair of the table, then the constant of proportionality must the same for every ordered pair. The constant of proportionality ( $k$ ) is described by the following expression:

$k = \frac{y}{x}$ (1)

Where:

$x$ - Input.

$y$ - Output.

If we know that $(x_{1}, y_{1}) = (13, 45.5)$ , $(x_{2}, y_{2}) = (14, 49)$ and $(x_{3}, y_{3}) = (15, 52.5)$ , then the constants of proportionalities of each ordered pair are, respectively:
