Remark

One of the things you need to do is learn to read phrase by phrase.

What is the quotient of a number and 7? That meas you have a number, x, and it is divided by 7. What you do that the answer you get is the quotient.

x/7 is what you know so for. Now the first part says you take 12 away from that.

x/7 - 12 is what you have after doing that.

The result you get is - 2

x/7 - 12 = - 2 Add 12 to both sides

x/7 - 12 + 12 = - 2 + 12

x/7 = 10 Now multiply by 7

x = 10 *7

x = 70 <<< Answer the number is 70

Chase is making calzones that require 2 3/4 pounds of beef. He only has 1,1/6 pound left. How much more does he need?
Dovator [93]
Here is the solution of the given problem above.
Firstly, to make the solution easier, let us convert the mixed fractions.
2 3/4 is 11/4 (Pounds of beef needed)
1 1/6 is 7/6 (Pounds of beef available)
So, to get how much more he needs, we will deduct 7/6 from 11/4 and we get 19/12. And this fraction is equivalent to option A. 1 7/12. Therefore, he needs 1 7/12 pounds more. hope this answer helps.

Consider the line =−−8x6y1.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Well I can't really see the equation but I can tell you how to do it.

Parallel slopes are the same slope as the equation.

For example, y = mx + b

The slope of a line parallel to it is m

Perpendicular slopes are the opposite reciprocal as the equation.

For example, y = mx + b

The slope of a line perpendicular to it is-\frac{1}{m}
