Let
x-----> distance school to the park
y-----> distance park to the house

we know that
x=1/3 mile
y=1/2 mile

[distance from school to the house]=x+y----> (1/3+1/2)
The common denominator is (3*2)---> 6
=(2*1+3*1)/(3*2)----> 5/6 mile

the answer is
5/6 miles

7) David bought a computer that was 20% off the regular price of $1080. If an 8% sales tax was added to the cost of the computer
Aneli [31]
Hello there! I can help you!

7. Okay. So the computer was originally $1,080, and the discount is 20%, but David would still have to pay 80% of the original price. To find the sale price, let's multiply. 1,080 * 80% (0.8) is 864. The sale price of the compuet is $864, but now we must add the sales tax to find the total price. We will multiply by 108%, because 100% (representing the price + 8% is 108%, and doing this will get us stright to the total price. 864 * 108% (1.08) is 933.12. There. David paid a total price of $933.12 for the computer.

8. Okay. So we are looking for the amount of discount for the sweater Suzanne bought. First off, let's subtract the prices to find the difference. 40 - 25 is 15. Now, let's divide that by 40 (the original price) to find the discount. 15/40 is 0.375. Or 37.5% when converted into a percentage. There. Suzanne received a 37.5% discount on the sweater when she bought it.

9. So the car was bought for x dollars. 0.88 represents 88%, so the value of the car is 88% of the previous year. An expression that is a way to describe the change in car value is x * (100 - 0.12)^t, because you car loses 12% of the remaining value each year, which leaves 88% of it remaining, and having the t as the exponent represents the number of years. That expression helps find the value of the car currently and can help you compare the values.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer: \dfrac{1}{5}\text{ of an ounce.}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A biologist studied how cells grow by adding liquid protein to cell samples.

She divided \dfrac{3}{5} of an ounce of liquid protein evenly among 3 cell samples.

Here , total quantity of liquid protein = \dfrac{3}{5} of an ounce

Total cell samples = 3

Now , Quantity of liquid protein given by her to each cell = (total quantity of liquid protein ) ÷ (3)

= \dfrac{3}{5}\times\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{5}\text{ of an ounce} .

Hence, Quantity of liquid protein given by her to each cell =  \dfrac{1}{5}\text{ of an ounce.}
