1/2 + (-3/4)= i need help /:

Mathematics
1 answer:
Marysya12 [62]3 years ago

Start by converting to like terms, so convert 1/2 to 2/4.

Next, look at the problem. You are adding a negative, which is the same as subtracting, so your new problem looks like this: 2/4 - 3/4.

If you take 3/4 from 2/4, you are left with -1/4. This is your final answer!

(-----×1/4)÷6×3/9 I need the step to this problem so that I explain to my grandson how he he gets the answer
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

-----×1/72

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>order of operations</em> says do these operations in order left to right. Please note that ÷ means the same as / unless you define it otherwise in your problem statement.

If you intend the ÷ symbol to be used to indicate everything to its left is divided by everything to its right, it is appropriate to use parentheses for that grouping, as in ...

  (-----×1/4)÷(6×3/9) = (-----×1/4)÷2 = -----×1/8

_____

Here, we're going to evaluate what you have written according to the usual rules as described above.

  (-----×1/4)÷6×3/9 = -----×1/24×3/9 = -----×(3/24)/9

  = -----×1/8/9

  = -----×1/72

_____

<em>Comment on the arithmetic</em>

Fractions are multiplied and divided in the usual way:

  a/b×c = (a×c)/b

  a/b/c = (a/b) × (1/c) = a/(b×c)

___

<em>Comment on fractions and parentheses</em>

Please note that parentheses are required on any numerator or denominator that consists of anything other than a single number or variable. (The exception is the case where the numerator is a product, because a·b/c = (a·b)/c with or without the parentheses.)

insens350 [35]

Answer:

One equation can be y = 3/4X +2

Step-by-step explanation:

Any equation that has a slope of 3/4 will be parallel to the line 4Y = 3X + 5 because the slope is the same. This can also be shown visually using any graphing calculator.

Phyllis invested 50000 dollars, a portion earning a simple interest rate of 5 percent per year and the rest earning a rate of 7
Elodia [21]

Answer:

The amount invested at 5% was $39,000 and the amount invested at 7% was $11,000

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

I=P(rt)

where

I is the Final Interest Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest  

t is Number of Time Periods

Let

x-----> the amount invested at 5%

50,000-x -----> the amount invested at 7%

so

t=1\ year\\ I=\$2,720\\r_1=0.05\\r_2=0.07\\P_1=\$x\\P_2=\$(50,000-x)

substitute in the formula above

2,720=x(0.05*1)+(50,000-x)(0.07*1)

solve for x

2,720=0.05x+3,500-0.07x

0.07x-0.05x=3,500-2,720\\0.02x=780\\x=\$39,000

(50,000-x)=\$11,000

therefore

The amount invested at 5% was $39,000 and the amount invested at 7% was $11,000
