Answer:

9/56

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{2}  +  \frac{2 }{7}  -  \frac{5}{8 }  =  \frac{9}{56}

First, let’s get our names straight. We’re dealing with three different size pieces: halves, sevenths, and eighths. The least common denominator (size) between these three is 7 • 8 = 56, and converting our fractions over to this new name gets us

1/2 = 28/56
2/7 = 14/56
5/8 = 35/56

We start with 28/56, and adding 16/56 gets us 44/56. Then, we eat 35/56 of the scoops, giving us 44/56 - 35/56 = 9/56 of our original scoops by the end.

A 10-yr-old competes in gymnastics. For several competitions, she received the following "All-Around" scores: 35.5, 36.3. 36.6,
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The child needs a score of 37.2 to move up to the next level of the competition.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the sum of all scores divided by the number of competions. So

M = \frac{S}{T}

In which S is the sum of all her scores and T is the number of competitions.

The child has five competions:

Which means that T = 5

She has to get a mean of at least 36.5, so M = 36.5

Her scores are: 35.5, 36.3. 36.6, and 36.9. Her last score, i am going to call x. So

S = 35.5 + 36.3 + 36.6 + 36.9 + x = 145.3 + x

The child needs a score of _____ to move up to the next level of the competition.

This score is x. So

M = \frac{S}{T}

36.5 = \frac{145.3 + x}{5}

145.3 + x = 36.5*5

x = 37.2

BRAINLIEST HELP ME PLEASEEEEEE IM IN DANGER OF STAYING BACK:(((
Andrew [12]

Answer:

  • 24 ounces of solution B
  • 16 ounces of solution A

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest contributor of salt to the mix is the 45% solution (B), so we'll let our variable (b) represent the quantity of that. The total amount desired is 40 ounces, so the quantity of solution A is (40-b) ounces. Then the amount of salt in the mix is ...

  0.45b +0.20(40-b) = 0.35(40)

Simplifying and subtracting 0.20(40), we get ...

  0.25b = 0.15(40)

  b = 40(.15/.25) = 24

  (40-b) = 16

The scientist should use 24 ounces of Solution B and 16 ounces of Solution A.
