3/11
1 - (-2) = 3
4 - (-7) = 11
Here is the work if needed
First you have to find 1/3 of the marbles. That means in the twelve marvels she has, there are three even groups. Divide twelve by three and you get four. So if each group is four, it is simple from here on out. If she started out with twelve and she lost 1/3 of them(4) it would be 12-4. You know this because lost is another for for subtract. 12-4=8. She has 8 marbles left.
Answer:
512 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the parking lot at the Red Hill Shopping Center, the angle of sight (elevation) to the top of the hill is about 25. From the base of the hill you can also sight the top but at an angle of 55. The horizontal distance between sightings is 740 feet. How high is Red Hill? Show your subproblems.
Solution:
Let x be the distance from the base of the hill to the middle of the hill perpendicular to the height, let h be the height of the hill. Therefore:
tan 25 = h/(x + 740)
h = (x + 740)tan 25 (1)
tan 55 = h / x
h = x tan 55 (2)
Hence:
(x + 740)tan 25 = xtan 55
0.4663(x + 740) = 1.428x
0.4663x + 345.07 = 1.428x
0.9617x = 345.07
x = 359 ft.
h = xtan55 = 359 tan(55) = 512 ft.
Answer:
the answer is .3 or 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
20+0.15x = 35+0.10x
0.15x=15+0.10x
0.05x=15
x= 15/0.05
x= 300minutes
check:
300*.015 = 45+20=65
300*0.10 = 30 + 35 = 65
they equal
so number of minutes would be 300
