6/3 + 2/3 = (6 + 2)/3:
4 + 3/8 - (6 + 2)/3

6 + 2 = 8:
4 + 3/8 - 8/3

Put 4 + 3/8 - 8/3 over the common denominator 24. 4 + 3/8 - 8/3 = (24×4)/24 + (3×3)/24 + (8 (-8))/24:
(24×4)/24 + (3×3)/24 + (8 (-8))/24

24×4 = 96:
96/24 + (3×3)/24 + (8 (-8))/24

3×3 = 9:
96/24 + 9/24 + (8 (-8))/24

8 (-8) = -64:
96/24 + 9/24 + (-64)/24

96/24 + 9/24 - 64/24 = (96 + 9 - 64)/24:
(96 + 9 - 64)/24

You would have to be 30 because multiples of 5 would only be 25 and 30 inbetween those numbers, and 25 is not an even number which it must be if you can say the number counting by 2s

A repair company’s charge for repairing a certain type of copy machine fits the model y = 47.38 + 0.617x where y is the number o

Tems11 [23]

Answer: 36.66min

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 47.38 + 0.617x

where y is the number of dollars

x is the number of minutes on the job

Given a value of y = $70, then

We substitute y = $70 in the equation.

70 = 47.38 + 0.617x

22.62 = 0.617x

X = 22.62/0.617 = 36.66min

The labeled angle is what's called an inscribed angle. There's a theorem (fittingly called the inscribed angle theorem) that says the measure of this angle is half the measure of the circular arc that it subtends.

In this case, the angle is subtended by an arc measuring 180°. So

(4x + 6)° = 1/2 • 180°

4x + 6 = 90

4x = 84

x = 21
