Answer:

28 feet farther than 1st ball.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Susan threw a softball 42 yards on her first try and 51\frac{1}{3} yard on her second try.

To find second ball is how much farther from the 1st ball, we will subtract 42 yards from 51\frac{1}{3} yards.

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=51\frac{1}{3}\text{ yards}-42\text{ yards}

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154}{3}\text{ yards}-42\text{ yards}

Let us have a common denominator.

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154}{3}\text{ yards}-\frac{42*3}{3}\text{ yards}  

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154}{3}\text{ yards}-\frac{126}{3}\text{ yards}

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{154-126}{3}\text{ yards}

\text{The second ball is farther from 1st ball}=\frac{28}{3}\text{ yards}

\text{1 yard}=3\text{ feet}

\frac{28}{3}\text{ yards}=\frac{28}{3}\times 3\text{ feet}

\frac{28}{3}\text{ yards}=28\text{ feet}

Therefore, Susan thrown the second ball 28 feet farther from the 1st ball.

Molodets [167]
If there are 12 items adding up to 60%, we want to know how many items more it will take to equal 100% So set up this equation 12/x = .6 then solve for x. x=12/.6 x = 20 now that we know the total you can subtract 12 from 20 and get 8, that is the number of items left on the list.

Based on her results, if she flipped the coins another 50 times, she should expect to flip heads 20 times. If Jessica flips a coin 100 times and gets 40 times heads and the next time she flips a coin 50 times she should get 20 because, 100 divide 2 is 50 so you would have to divide 40 with 2 and get the answer of 20.

We have to find 0.65% of 182

\\ \rm\longmapsto 0.0065\times 182

\\ \rm\longmapsto 1.183\$

Now total fee

\\ \rm\longmapsto 182+1.183=183.183\$

What is 3d+8=2d-7 is equations
fredd [130]
3d + 8 = 2d - 7 equals d = -15.

First, 
subtract 2d from both sides. Your problem should look like: 3d + 8 - 2d = -7.
Second, simplify 3d + 8 - 2d to get d + 8. Your problem should look like: d + 8 = -7.
Third, subtract 8 from both sides. Your problem should look like: d = -7 - 8.
Fourth, simplify -7 - 8 to get -15. Your problem should look like: d = -15, which is your answer.

Hopefully this helps, I'm not exactly sure what you meant by "is equations," but this is how you solve the problem.
