When subtrating you need to have the same denominators 1/6=2/12 7/12 - 2/12= 5/12 left

Ok so to find the eggs left we need to subtract but with fractions, you need a common denominator. You can multiply 1/6 by 2 because 6·2=12 which will be the same denominator as 7/12. You must multiply the numerator by 2 as well so 1/6· 2/2= 2/12. Now subtract 7/12 - 2/12 and you have 5/12 eggs left. :)

The measure of angle A is 4 degrees greater than the measure of angle B. The two angles are complementary. Find the measure for
svetlana [45]
Given: 
Angle A is 4 degrees greater than the measure of Angle B. Both angles are complementary

Complementary angles have a sum of 90°

Angle A = x + 4° ; Angle B = x

x + 4° + x = 90°
2x = 90° - 4°
2x = 86°
x = 86° ÷ 2
x = 43° ANGLE B.

Angle A = x + 4° ⇒ 43° + 4 = 47°

Given:
Angle D is 5 times the measure of Angle E. These angles are supplementary. This means that their sum is 180°

Angle D = 5x ; Angle E = x

5x + x = 180°
6x = 180°
x = 180° ÷ 6
x = 30°  Angle E.

Angle D = 5x = 5(30) = 150°

The height of a triangular window is 3 feet less than its base. The area the window is 20 ft.? find the dimensions of the window
Ivenika [448]

Let us assume base of the window = b feet.

Height is 3 feet less than base, that is = (b-3).

Given area of the triangle = 20 feet square.

We know formula for area of a triangle:

Area = \frac{1}{2} × Base × Height

Plugging values in formula, we get

20 = \frac{1}{2} b \times (b-3)

\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}2

40=b\left(b-3\right)

40=b^2-3b

b^2-3b-40=0

Factoring quadratic, we get

\left(b+5\right)\left(b-8\right)=0

b+5=0

b=-5

b-8=0

b=8.

For base we can take only positive value.

<h3>Therefore, base of the triangle = 8 feet and height = 8 -3 = 5 feet.</h3>

Please HELP!!! I'll make you Brainliest!!!!

Answer: 1. d. 7x\geq 350; x\geq 50

2. a. (5, 28)

3. a: C(n) = 0.90 n - 0.40

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Here x represents the saving of one day.

Thus, the total saving for 7 day = 7 x

And, my  goal is to save at least $350.00  ( According to the question)

⇒ 7x\geq 350

⇒  x\geq 50 ( by dividing both sides by 7 )

Therefore, Option d is correct.

2. since, if a point satisfies an equation then we can say that it is the solution of the equation.

(5,28) satisfies y= 5x + 3

Because at x = 5, 5×5 + 3 = 25 + 3 = 28

except this point other points (28, 5), (4, 20) and (3, 19) are not satisfying given equation of line.

Therefore, only (5,28) is the solution of line.

⇒ Option a is correct.

3. Here n represents the number of tunas.

And, according to question the cost of one tuna = $0.90

⇒ Cost of n tunas = $ 0.90n

But again according to the question,

I have a coupon for $0.40 off your total purchase.

Thus, $ 0.40 will be less from my total purchasing cost.

⇒ The cost of n tunas = $ (0.90 n - 0.4)

Option a is correct.

Which graph represents the function f(x)=
zhenek [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

you don't show us the choices.

anyway, the real graph must be similar to the one you are showing, as it goes to - and + infinity for x = 2.

because the denominator "x-2" will be 0 for x = 2.

but the horizontal limits are both y = +3 (and not 0).

because (3x-2)/(x-2) goes more and more to 3/1 the larger (or smaller in the - direction) x gets.
