Work out : 8 divided by 2/3

2 answers:

6 0

Since you're dividing 2/3 you have to flip the 2/3 so it becomes 3/2.
Then, you would do 8 x 3/2 which equals 24/2.
After you simplify it, the answer would be 12.

8 ÷ (2/3)
Divide 2/3 first, because it's in the parenthesis.
Divide 8 by the product of 2/3 = 12.

Simplify (12a5−6a−10a3)−(10a−2a5−14a4) . Write the answer in standard form

Answer:

$=14a^5+14a^4-10a^3-16a$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left(12a^5-6a-10a^3\right)-\left(10a-2a^5-14a^4\right)\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a\\=12a^5-6a-10a^3-\left(10a-2a^5-14a^4\right)\\-\left(10a-2a^5-14a^4\right):\quad -10a+2a^5+14a^4\\-\left(10a-2a^5-14a^4\right)\\\mathrm{Distribute\:parentheses}\\=-\left(10a\right)-\left(-2a^5\right)-\left(-14a^4\right)\\Apply\:minus-plus\:rules\\-\left(-a\right)=a,\:\:\:-\left(a\right)=-a\\=-10a+2a^5+14a^4\\=12a^5-6a-10a^3-10a+2a^5+14a^4$

$\mathrm{Simplify}\:12a^5-6a-10a^3-10a+2a^5+14a^4:\quad 14a^5+14a^4-10a^3-16a12a^5-6a-10a^3-10a+2a^5+14a^4\\Group\:like\:terms\\=12a^5+2a^5+14a^4-10a^3-6a-10a\\\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:12a^5+2a^5=14a^5\\=14a^5+14a^4-10a^3-6a-10a\\\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:-6a-10a=-16a\\=14a^5+14a^4-10a^3-16a$

What is the value of c in the equation x^15/x^c =x^6

Galina-37 [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{ {x}^{15} }{ {x}^{c} } = { x}^{6} \\ {x}^{15 - c} = {x}^{6}$

15 - c = 6

15 - 6 = c

9 = c

c = 9

a scuba diver, who was 25 2/3 feet beneath the surface of the water, descended 5 1/2 feet. from this depth, how many feet must t

Effectus [21]

Answer:

31 1/6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

add 25 2/3 to 5 1/2 to see how far under the surface he is; use common denominator of 6

25 4/6 + 5 3/6 = 30 7/6

30 7/6 is the same as 30 + 1 1/6 so diver must ascend 31 1/6 feet

i used the answer key to get my answer and checked it with my dumb useless teacher and it’s right but, he won’t tell me how to g

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

You multiply it with the same number you use for the denominator.
in this case 3/4 and 7/10
you find the LCM of the denominator is 20
so for 4 to become 20 you multiply by 5 then for the numerator 3 also multiply by 5, so you get 15/20
its the same also with 7/10, you multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 2 and get 14/20
hope it help... :)
