Answer:
The amount of fabric she needs is 3/4 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the amount of fabric needed, we need to subtract the sum of what she has at school and at home from what she needs.
What she has can be calculated by adding 3 1/4 + 1 1/2
This would be easier in terms of decimals.
3 1/4 = 3.25 (1/4 = 0.25)
while 1 1/2 = 1.5(1/2 = 0.5)
Adding both, we have 3.25 + 1.5 = 4.75 yards
What is needed is 5 1/2 yards = 5.5 yards
What is needed more is thus 5.5 yards - 4.75 yards = 0.75 yards
Mathematically 0.75 in decimals = 3/4 in fraction form
Answer:
y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
{y = x/2 - 4
y = 1 - 2 x
Substitute y = x/2 - 4 into the second equation:
{y = x/2 - 4
x/2 - 4 = 1 - 2 x
In the second equation, look to solve for x:
{y = x/2 - 4
x/2 - 4 = 1 - 2 x
Add 2 x + 4 to both sides:
{y = x/2 - 4
(5 x)/2 = 5
Multiply both sides by 2/5:
{y = x/2 - 4
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 into the first equation:
{y = -3
x = 2

y = -3
Answer:
m = -4.33333 or -4 and 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
gradient = (difference in y)/(difference in X)
m = (-1-12)/(8-5)
m = -13/3
m = -4.3333333
