The best way to solve this is to find a common denominator! Don't worry, it's super easy

Take 4 1/5 and change it to a single fraction by multiplying 5(4) and adding the 1, then put it over 5 again. This gives you 21/5, which is equal to 4 1/5.

Then do the same thing with 2 1/2:
2(2) +1 over 2= 5/2.

The problem is asking you to subtract. So 21/5- 5/2.

So how can you subtract that? Easy: common denominators!
The smallest number that is divisible by both 2 and 5 is 10, so you want both numbers to have 10 on the bottom.

To do this, multiply 21/5 by 2/2 (Note: 2/2 is equal to 1, so you are not changing the value of the fraction, you're only changing how it is written).
This is 42/10.

Then multiply 5/2 by 5/5 for 25/10.

NOW you can finally subtract!

42/10 - 25/10 = 17/10

17/10 is your answer!!

(Think 42-25/10 if you're confused on how to subtract Fractions)

Equation:

4  1/5    -    2   1/2


Showing Work:

Steps:

4  1/5     -    2   1/2

Break off    1   from  4:

4  1/5    =    3   6/5

=     3   6/5     -    2   1/2

Subtract Whole Numbers:

3     -     2      =     1

Combine Fractions:

6/5   -    1/2:       7/10

=        1       +    7/10

Therefore,  Your Answer is =====>    1   7/10  Scoops of Oats left in the horses bucket.




Hope that helps!!!!                                        : )

Sin 1 + sin 2 + sin3 .................+ sin 360 = ?
lesya [120]

Assuming that arcs are given in degrees, call S the following sum:

S = sin 1° + sin 2° + sin 3° + ... + sin 359° + sin 360°


Rearranging the terms, you can rewrite S as

S = [sin 1° + sin 359°] + [sin 2° + sin 358°] + ... + [sin 179° + sin 181°] + sin 180° +
   + sin 360°

S = [sin 1° + sin(360° – 1°)] + [sin 2° + sin(360° – 2°)] + ...+ [sin 179° + sin(360° – 179)°]
   + sin 180° + sin 360°          (i)


But for any real k,

sin(360° – k) = – sin k


then,

S = [sin 1° – sin 1°] + [sin 2° – sin 2°] + ... + [sin 179° – sin 179°] + sin 180° + sin 360°

S = 0 + 0 + ... + 0 + 0 + 0        (... as sin 180° = sin 360° = 0)

S = 0


Each pair of terms in brackets cancel out themselves, so the sum equals zero.

∴   sin 1° + sin 2° + sin 3° + ... + sin 359° + sin 360° = 0          ✔


I hope this helps. =)

The question is: Write and solve an equation to determine the width 'w' of the flag. The length of an American flag is 1.9 times
AysviL [449]

So what is given is:

length = 1.9 * w, you want to convert this to w = ...

This is done by dividing left and right by 1.9, so you get:

length/1.9 = 1.9*w/1.9, which simplifies to w = length/1.9

Another approach is to replace the multiplication with a simpler one in your head. So in stead of reading "length = 1.9 * width, what is width?", you read "6 = 2*3, what is 3?". You'll immediately realize 3 = 6/2, and that shows you how to change the real equation, ie., width = length/1.9.

Find the point-slope equation for the line that passes through the points (5, 19) and (-5, -1). Use the first point in your equa
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

m =  \frac{y_ 2 -y_ 1}{x_ 2 -x_ 1 }  \\  =  \frac{ - 1 - 19}{ - 5 - 5}  =  \frac{ - 2 0 }{ - 10}  \\  \therefore \: m = 2 \\ y + 1 = 2(x + 5)
