-8 3/8 = -8 15/40
-12 4/5 = -12 32/40 ,because you had to get a common denominator.
Since you are subtracting from a negative the negative turns into a positive.
-8 15/40 + 12 32/40 = 4 17/40
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure is symmetrical, so 7x+5 = 9x - 15
7x + 5 = 9x - 15
5 = 2x - 15
20 = 2x
x = 10
Note that the figure is not drawn to scale, but computations don't lie :)

Answer:
Option B is correct.
sum of given geometric series is, 255
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate the geometric series: 
we can write this as:

Formula for the sum of the geometric series:
for r > 1
where
a is the first term
n is the number of terms
r is the common ratio
In the given series:
common ratio (r) = 2>1, n = 8 and first term(a) = 1
Since,

and so on...
then substitute the given values in [1] we have;

or

Therefore, the sum of given geometric series is, 255
