5 3/8 + 4 1/4 = ? PLEASE HELP QUICK!

1 answer:

5 0

To solve this question, we first need to convert both of these values into mixed numbers. 5 $\frac{3}{8}$ becomes $\frac{43}{8}$ and 4 $\frac{1}{4}$ becomes $\frac{17}{4}$ . Now we have to find a LCD. An LCD for 4 and 8 is 8, so now we have to change $\frac{17}{4}$ into something over 8. $\frac{17}{4}$ becomes $\frac{34}{8}$ when you multiply the fraction by the form of 1 $\frac{2}{2}$ . 34 + 43 = 77, so our answer is 77/8 which simplifies to 9 $\frac{5}{8}$ .

Grant is trying to make money to help pay for college by taking a job with Brian’s bike taxis if Baltimore. He has an agreement

alexandr402 [8]

Grant needs to ride at least 13.33 miles to male at least $ 15.00 a day

Solution:

Given that Grant has an agreement with Brian to rent the bike for $35.00 a night

He charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them

Grant needs to make at least $15.00 a day

To find: miles needed to ride

From given question, He charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them

So if he transports for "x" miles he would get,

$\$ 3.75 \times x = \$ 3.75x$

So the profit he gets is $ 3.75 and initial cost invested to rent bike is $ 35. Also, Grant needs to make at least $15.00 a day

So we can frame a inequality as:

$3.75x - 35 \geq 15\\\\3.75x\geq 35 + 15\\\\3.75x\geq 50\\\\x \geq 13.33$

So he needs to ride atleast 13.33 miles to male atleast $ 15.00 a day

Which expression is equivalent to (x superscript four-thirds baseline x superscript two-thirds Baseline ) superscript one-third

Andrei [34K]

<h3>The equivalent expression is:</h3>

$(x^{\frac{4}{3}}x^{\frac{2}{3}})^{\frac{1}{3}} = x^{\frac{2}{3}$

Solution:

Given expression is:

$\displaystyle (x^{\frac{4}{3}}x^{\frac{2}{3}})^{\frac{1}{3}}$

We have to find the equivalent expression

We can simplify the above expression using law of exponents

Use the following law of exponents:

$a^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}$

Therefore,

$\displaystyle (x^{\frac{4}{3}}x^{\frac{2}{3}})^{\frac{1}{3}} = (x^{\frac{4}{3}+\frac{2}{3}})^{\frac{1}{3}}\\\\Simplify\\\\\displaystyle (x^{\frac{4}{3}}x^{\frac{2}{3}})^{\frac{1}{3}} = (x^2)^\frac{1}{3}$

Use another law of exponent

$(a^m)^n = a^{mn}$

Therefore,

$(x^{\frac{4}{3}}x^{\frac{2}{3}})^{\frac{1}{3}} = x^{\frac{2}{3}$

Thus the equivalent expression is found
