Answer: He has planted 2/3 and there is 1/3 left to plant.
Explanation: You need to add your fractions together, because each of those is a section of the garden and you need the total of how much of the garden he has planted.
This isn’t too difficult because the denominators are the same.
5/12 + 3/12 = 8/12
It is 8/12 because since the denominators are the same, you just need to add the numerators. Imagine you have a pie that’s cut into 12 pieces, and you and your friends take 5, and then your family takes 3. How many or gone now? 8 pieces. From how many pieces? 12 pieces. So 8/12 pieces are gone.
So Peter has planted 8/12 of his garden. This however, can be simplified, because both of those numbers divide by 4.
8/4 = 2
12/4 = 3
So 8 is now 2, and 12 is now 3.
This is now 2/3.
If there is 2/3 gone, you need to figure out how much is left to get you to 1.
In this instance, 1 can be rewritten as 3/3, because 3 divided by 3 is 1.
In order to get from 2/3 to 1, you need to add 1/3, one more third to the two thirds you already have.
This means Peter has 1/3 left to plant.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
1/36.
Step-by-step explanation:
A total number of possible outcomes = 36.
To get a sum of 12 the possible outcomes are just 6,6.
Answer:
m∠6 = 116°
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>first find x:</u>
7x - 17 = 2x + 78
subtract 2x from both sides: 5x - 17 = 78
add 17 to both sides: 5x = 95
divide by 5: x = 19
<u>plug x into 7x - 17</u>
7(19) - 17 = 116
∠6 and 7x - 17 are vertical angles and therefore congruent, so m∠6 also = 116°
The equation should be y= -2x+5.
The descent of the balloon would take 14 minutes
To find the answer to this problem, take the elevation change (315) and then divide it by the rate of descent (22.5)
