= 7/8 − 1/5
= ((7 × 5) − (1 × 8)) / (8 × 5)
= (35 - 8) / 40
= 27/40
= 27/40
SO, 27/40 minutes are NOT spend on instructions.
Hope I helped:P
Answer:
Correct option: second one
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's check each option to find the correct one.
First option: x and y increase by 2.3 times, so the figure expands. So this is not the correct option.
Second option: x and y decrease 0.52 times, so the figure is reduced. So this is the correct option.
Third option: x and y are translated by 1/3 of their position, so the figure is not reduced.
Fourth option: x and y increase by 7/2 times, so the figure expands. So this is not the correct option.
Correct option: second one
Answer:
a=50 b=20
Step-by-step explanation:
Call A and B the 2 present ages.
Ten years from now, A is twice as old as B -->
(A + 10) = 2(B + 10) (1)
Five years ago, A was 3 times as old as B -->
(A - 5) = 3(B - 5) (2).
Solve the system (1) and (2).
From (2) --> A = 3B - 15 + 5 = 3B - 10.
Replace this value of A into (1) -->
3B - 10 + 10 = 2B + 20 --> B = 20. Then,
A = 3B - 10 = 60 - 10 = 50.
Check
!0 years from now --> A = 60 and B = 30 --> A = 2B .OK
5 years ago --> A = 45 and B = 15 --> A = 3B. OK
Answer:
A: 16
Step-by-step explanation:
difference is +12
4 + 12= 16
Using the equation P=a+b+c , you just need to plug in.
4a-2b + 7a-3 + 9a - 4
Combine like terms.
20a-2b-7
