Answer:
True answer: -24
Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>Showing the error</u></em>
-16-2(-2) – 12 First you need to multiply
8(-2) - 12 The error here is that the wrong numbers are multiplied together
-16-12 Add the negatives together
-28 Your answer (the incorrect one)
<em><u /></em>
<em><u>The correct way of solving it</u></em>
-16 -2(-2) - 12 Multiply into the parenthesis
-16 + 4 -12 Add the first two numbers
-12 - 12 Add the numbers together
-24 The answer
First you have to make both fractions have the same denominator, so you can multiply each fraction by the others denominator.
5/8
To
(5*6)/(8*6)
And
1/6
To
(1*8)/(6*8)
Now it's 6 30/48 - 2 8/48
= 4 22/48
Now reduce to
= 4 11/24
So, 4 11/24 is the answer
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
the percent increase in the price of a gallon of milk from 1985 to 2005 is 59%
Define percent increase
Percent increase can be described as the rise in the value of an item, in this case the value is milk.
Write out the parameters
In 1985 the price of a gallon of milk is $2.20
In 2005 the price is $3.50
Formula for percent increase
new price-old price/new price × 100
Calculate the percent increase
new price= $3.50
old price= $2.20
= 3.50-2.20/2.20
= 1.3/2.20
= 0.59 × 100
= 59%
Hence the percent increase from 1985 t0 2005 is 59%
