7/6
Change 1/3 to 2/6 in order to have a common denominator.
Then add the numerators (2 and 5) and keep the denominator.

The first thing to do is to make the denominators. Since 3 goes into 6, the first fraction should simply be doubled:
1/3 + 5/6 = 2/6 + 5/6
5 + 2 = 7
7/6

1/3 + 5/6 = 1 1/6 or 7/6

If gym strong charges a $350 fee and $15 a month and gym fit charges $100 fee and $24 a month, how many months would take for gy

Papessa [141]

Answer:

It would take 28 months for Gym Strong to be a better buy.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two possible options for gyms to choose from:

Gym Strong charges $350 plus $15 a month

Gym Fit charges $100 plus $24 a month.

Since Gym Strong charges less per month but has a higher initial fee, there will be some time when it will be a cheaper option than Gym Fit.

Let's solve this by analyzing the differences in fixed fees and monthly fees.

The difference of fixed fees is $350 - $100 = $250

The difference on monthly fees is $24 - $15 = $9

Both gyms will charge the same total fees when have passed 250/9 = 27.7 months. Since the number of months is a whole number, we round up.

It would take 28 months for Gym Strong to be a better buy.

Solve each equation. Show your work, or explain your reasoning. -3x + 5 = 16

Vesna [10]

-3x + 5 = 16

First, subtract 5 from both sides.

-3x = 11

Then, divide -3 by both sides.

x = -11/3 or -3.66....

Measure of each side of an equilateral triangle is 12cm. It's area is given by

telo118 [61]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of an equilateral triangle is calculated as

A = $\frac{s^2\sqrt{3} }{4}$ ← s is length of a side

Here s = 12, thus

A = $\frac{12^2\sqrt{3} }{4}$

= $\frac{144\sqrt{3} }{4}$

= 36 $\sqrt{3}$ → D
