Thirty cows. Twenty-eight chickens. How many didn't?

Add and subtract rational numbers without common denominators. Show work! 1. 7/4 - 3/2 - 2/5 = 2. - 5/16 + 3/4 + 1/8 = 3. 3/4 -

alukav5142 [94]

$\dfrac{7}{4} - \dfrac{3}{2} - \dfrac{2}{5}$

$= \dfrac{7 \times 5}{4 \times 5} - \dfrac{3 \times 10}{2 \times 10} - \dfrac{2 \times 4}{5 \times 4}$

$= \dfrac{35}{20} - \dfrac{30}{20} - \dfrac{8}{20}$

$= \dfrac{35-30-8}{20}$

$= \dfrac{3}{20}$

---------------------------------------------------------------

$-\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{3}{4} + \dfrac{1}{8}$

$= -\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{3 \times 4}{4 \times 4} + \dfrac{1 \times 2}{8 \times 2}$

$= -\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{12}{16} + \dfrac{2}{16}$

$= \dfrac{-5+ 12 + 2}{16}$

$= \dfrac{9}{16}$

---------------------------------------------------------------

$\dfrac{3}{4} - \dfrac{1}{3} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{3 \times 3}{4 \times 3} - \dfrac{1 \times 4}{3 \times 4} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{9}{12} - \dfrac{4}{12} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{9 - 4 - 7}{12}$

$= -\dfrac{2}{12}$

$= -\dfrac{1}{6}$

---------------------------------------------------------------

$\dfrac{2}{9} - \dfrac{2}{12} - \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{2}{9} - \dfrac{1}{6} - \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{2 \times 2}{9 \times 2} - \dfrac{1 \times 3}{6 \times 3} - \dfrac{2 \times 6}{3 \times 6}$

$= \dfrac{4}{18} - \dfrac{3}{18} - \dfrac{12}{18}$

$= \dfrac{4 - 3 - 12}{18}$

$= - \dfrac{11}{18}$

The measurement of the supplement of an angle is 7 times the measure of the complement. find the measure of the complement

mamaluj [8]

<span>x = angle 90 - x = measure of complement of x 180 - x = measure of supplement of x From the information given in the problem, we get this: 180 - x = 7 (90 - x) 180 - x = 630 - 7x -x + 7x = 630 - 180 6x = 450 x = 450/6 x = 75. Now we prove that x = 75° is the correct angle: x = 75° = measure of angle 90° - 75° = 15° = meaure of complement 180° - 75° = 105° = 7 (15°)</span>
