Vesna [10]3 years ago

-- A "mixed number" is (a whole number) plus (a fraction).

-- Two mixed numbers = (two whole numbers) and (two fractions).

-- The smallest whole number is ' 1', so when you add up all of that,
the smallest possible sum is      (2) plus (two fractions).

-- So the sum must always be greater than  2 .

============================================

<em>THAT'S IF BOTH MIXED NUMBERS ARE POSITIVE </em>.

<em>If one of them is negative</em>, then it's easy to do:

(3 and 1/2) + negative (1 and 1/2) = <u>2</u>

(25 and 7/10) + negative (23 and 7/10) = <u>2</u>

Question #12: A department store has a discount on shoes based on a
Helga [31]

Answer:

$77

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is $77 because first you need to find how much money was discounted by doing 70-49 to get 21. Then you need to find how much percent 21 is of 70 by doing 21/70, then you would get 0.3 which is 30% since you have to multiply it by 100. This means that there is a 30% discount. Then you would do 0.3*110=33. This means that the 30% discount takes away $33. So 110-33=77. The answer is $77.

Ne4ueva [31]
It rained 1 and 4/10 centimeters. You have to first figure out what adds up to 14, which is 1/10. Then you add 1 to get 15 and 3/10 to get 15 3/10.

Classify the system of equations 2x + y - 7 = 0 1/3 x + y - 4 = 0
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations are:

2x + y - 7 = 0

and

1/3x + y -4 = 0

Let's rearrange the first to get:

y = -2x + 7

Putting this into the 2nd equation we get:

\frac{1}{3}x + y -4 = 0\\\frac{1}{3}x + (-2x+7) -4 = 0\\\frac{1}{3}x-2x+7-4=0\\\frac{5}{3}x=3\\x=\frac{9}{5}

Now, y would be:

y=-2x+7\\y=-2(\frac{9}{5})+7\\y=3\frac{2}{5}

Solving the equation we see that there is 1 unique solution with 1 x value and another y values. That means, when graphing, the lines would intersect.

Answer choice B is right.

<u>Note:</u> Coincident means the same line and parallel means there would be no solution when solving

The area of the rectangular floor in Tamara’s room is 9556 square feet. The width of the room is 813 feet. Part A Round each mea
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Area of Tamara room

=9556 square feet

Width

=813 feet

Length= 11.75 feet

Total area= 19794 square feet

480 square feet will not be enough

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of Tamara's room to the nearest whole numbers

Area of Tamara room

=9556 square feet

Width

=813 feet

For the length

Length*width= area

Length= area/width

Length= 9556/813

Length= 11.75

To the nearest whole number = 12 feet

The ceiling is 12 feet high

Let's calculate for the area of the combination

1)Height and width two times

2)Height and length two times

1).area = 12*813

= 9756

Then 9756*2= 19512

2). area= 12*11.75

= 141

Then 141*2= 282

Total area = 282+19512

Total area= 19794
