Wuts the answer to this problem
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Jane is 14 \frac{3}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

The age of each person increases by a fractional amount.  In order to find Jane's age, you will need to start with Ari's age and then add the additional fractional amounts.  In order to add with fractions, the denominators must be the same.  In the case of Glen, you can figure his age out first:

12 \frac{4}{5} + 1 \frac{1}{6}

5 and 6 have a common denominator of 30, so multiply the numerator and denominator by the same factor and than add:

12 \frac{4}{5} = 12 \frac{24}{30} + 1\frac{1}{6} or 1 \frac{5}{30}= 13 \frac{29}{30}

Taking Glen's age and adding the additional amount for Jane:

13 \frac{29}{30} + 1 \frac{1}{3} or 1 \frac{10}{30}=14 \frac{3}{10}

6(x^2)(y^3)

3(x^5)(y)(z)

15(x^2)(y^2)

take the least power:

x : 2

y : 1

z : 0

6,3,15: 3

Greatest common factor:

3(x^2)(y)

Factorize:

A taxi charges a flat fee of 4.00 plus 2.25 per mile. How much will the taxi driver earn if he takes one passenger 4.8 miles and
nydimaria [60]
Write an equation.
T = Total money made
M = miles driven
4 + 2.25m 
T = 7.3*2.25 + 4 + 2.25*4.8 + 4 
T = 8 + 7.3*2.25 + 2.25 * 4.8
4.8 * 2.25 = 10.8
7.3 * 2.25 = 16.425
T = 16.425 + 8 + 10.8
T = 35.225
So, the total amount of money he made was $35.25.
