Convert 1/2 and 1/3 to the same denominator -> 1/2=3/6 and 2/3=4/6
add the whole numbers -> 2+3=5
add fractions -> 3/6+4/6=7/6
convert fraction to a mixed number -> 7/6=1 1/6
add mixed number and whole number together -> 5+1 1/6=6 1/6
answer is 6 1/6

Help me with 3, and 5 show your work !
ss7ja [257]
Okay so for number 3, you have to do the top work first.

3: POSITIVE 2!! first, you do the stuff inside the parentheses first because of P(parentheses)EMDAS. so, 14-2-10! -2-10 is -12 and then plus positive 14 is +2. but, the negative sign outside of the parentheses makes that +2 a -2.
but, you cant forget the -12 outside. you have to do -12-2 which gets you -14. then, this is easy! -14 divided by -7 is a positive 2!

5: POSITIVE 3!! again, do the stuff in the parentheses first!! -2-4 is -6. then, -6 x 2 is -12! so, divide -12 by -4 and you get a positive 3!

-52 times the difference between a number and 14 is equal to the number plus 3
xenn [34]
X=number looked for
we have this equation:
-52(x-14)=x+3
we solve this equation:
-52x+728=x+3
-52x-x=3-728
-53x=-725
x=-725/-53=725/53 ≈13,68

Solution: 725/53

To check:
the difference between 725/53 and 14=725/53  - 14=(725-742)/53=-17/53
-52 times the diference is= -52(-17/53)=884/53
The number plus 3=725/53 + 3=(725+159)/53=884/53

The graph of a line passes through the points (0, -2) and (6, 0). What is the equation of the line?
ra1l [238]

Answer:

y=0.3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the gradient

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

m=0-(-2)/6-0

m=0.3

then use this equation

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=0.3(x-0)

y+2=0.3x-0

y=0.3x-2

The population of a town is 14,000 and is decreasing at a rate of 1.5% each year. Write an exponential decay equation to find th
sergejj [24]

Answer: the population after 10 years is 12036

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as

A = P(1 - r)^ t

Where

A represents the population after t years.

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

P = 14000

r = 1.5% = 1.5/100 = 0.015

t = 10 years

Therefore, the exponential decay equation to find the population of the town after 10 years is

A = 14000(1 - 0.015)^10

A = 14000(0.985)^10

A = 12036

A bucket that weighs 5 lb and a rope of negligible weight are used to draw water from a well that is 60 ft deep. The bucket is f
mestny [16]

Answer:

The value is W= 2640 \  ft \cdot lb

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the bucket is F =  5 lb

The depth of the well is x_1 =  60 \ ft

The weight of the water is W_w  =  42 lb

The rate at which the bucket with water is pulled is v  = 1.5 \  ft/s

The rate of the leak is r = 0.15 lb/s

Generally the workdone is mathematically represented as

W =  \int\limits^{x_1}_{x_o} {G(x)} \, dx]

Here G(x) is a function defining the weight of the system (water and bucket ) and it is mathematically represented as

G(x) =  F  +  (W_w- Ix)

Here I is the rate of water loss in lb/ft mathematically represented as

I  = \frac{r}{v}

=> I  = \frac{0.15 }{1.5 }

=> I  = 0.1

So

G(x) =  5  +  (42- 0.1x)

=> G(x) =  47- 0.1x)

So

W =  \int\limits^{60}_{0} {47- 0.1x} \, dx]

=> W =  [47x - \frac{0.1x^2}{2} ]|\left 60} \atop {0}} \right.

=> W= [47(60) - 0.05(60)^2]

=> W= 2640 \  ft \cdot lb
