Which number line correctly shows –0.8 + 0.6? A number line going from negative 1.6 to positive 1.6. An arrow goes from negative
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Hi there, are you sure you didn't forget any parenthesis or signs? I can't find the right answer in the options, the one that would end up at -0.2 in the end I can edit my answer if you tell me some additional option or info about the expression I need to show on the number line

Step-by-step explanation:

which number line shows correctly -0.8 + 0.6?

well lets write it in words minus eight tenths plus six tenths\

so minus:

you go 0.8 units to the left from 0,

then plus:

you go 0.6 units right from -0.8, getting to -0.2

since there is no exact answer like that we can rearrange the addends 0.6-0.8, now:

we go from 0 6 tenths units to the right and get to 0.6, then we go from 0.6 eight tenths unit to the left to get to -0.2

What is the distance between nicholas's school and the post office?
aleksklad [387]
Part A:

Given that Nicholas's school is located at point (3, 2) and that the post office is located at point (-2, -2), then the distance between Nicholas's school and the post office is given by:

d= \sqrt{(-2-3)^2+(-2-2)^2}  \\  \\ = \sqrt{(-5)^2+(-4)^2} = \sqrt{25+16}  \\  \\  \sqrt{41} =\bold{6.4} \ units



Part B:

If Nicholas is located at point (– 3 , 2), the distance to get to the grocery store located at point (1,-1) is given by:

d= \sqrt{(1-(-3))^2+(-1-2)^2}  \\  \\ = \sqrt{(1+3)^2+(-3)^2} = \sqrt{(4)^2+9}  \\  \\ = \sqrt{16+9} = \sqrt{25} =\bold{5}

2. If a tank is 5/8 filled with solution, how much of the tank is empty?

Ans: 3/8 of the tank is empty. Since the whole tank would equal 8/8, or 1, and 5/8 of it is filled, then that

means 3/8 of it remains empty.

3. 1/2 x 3/5 x2/3 =

Ans: 6/30, which can be reduced to 1/5.

4. 5/9 ÷ 4/11 =

Ans: 55/36. You cannot reduce this fraction any further.

5. Convert 27/4 to a decimal.

Ans: 6.75. This answer is arrived at by dividing 4 into 27.

6. Convert 0.45 to a fraction.

Ans: 45/100, which can be reduced to 9/20.

There are three grades in the school. One grade has 1/3 of the students, one grade has 1/4 of the students. What fraction of stu
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total number of stdents that has all grades in the school.

There are three grades in the school. One grade has 1/3 of the students, this means that number of students that belongs tho this grade is 1/3 × x = x/3

One grade has 1/4 of the students, this means that number of students that belongs to this grade is 1/4 × x = x/4

Total number of students in both grades would be x/3 +/x/4 = 7x/12

The number of students in the remaining grade would be

x - 7x/12 = 5x/12

fraction of students in the remaining grade would be

(5x/12)/x = 5/12
