\bf \cfrac{7}{2}x-8.62-\cfrac{3}{2}x-2.38\implies \cfrac{7}{2}x-\cfrac{3}{2}x-8.62-2.38\implies \cfrac{7x-3x}{2}-11
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4x}{2}-11\implies 2x-11

\frac{7}{2}x-8.62-\frac{3}{2}x-2.38\\ \\ (\frac{7}{2}x-\frac{3}{2}x)+(-8.62-2.38)\\ \\ (\frac{4}{2}x)+(-11)\\ \\ 2x-11

This should be your final answer.

Interpret the following table about school dropout at the basic level (5 marks)
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

- - - Jhs

Basic level - - - - Boys - - - - Girls - - - - Total

Primary - - - - - - - 49 - - - - - - 51 - - - - - - 100%

Jhs - - - - - - - - - - 56 - - - - - - 44. - - - - - - 100%

With the information above,

Primary Dropout percentage:

BOYS : [49 / (49 +51)] × 100.= 49%

GIRLS : [51 / (49 +51)] × 100.= 51%

Jhs: Dropout percentage

BOYS : [56 / ( 56 + 44) × 100 = 56%

GIRLS : [44 / (44 +56)] × 100.= 44%

Someone please solve this. no where is an answer to this
serg [7]

Answer:

a=-8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

  (-1/2a-5)=3a+1

To find the opposite of  1/2 a−5, find the opposite of each term.

-1/2a-(-5)= -3a+1

The opposite of −5 is 5.

-1/2a+5=-3a+1

add 3a to both sides

-1/2a+5+3a=1

Combine-1/2and 3a to get 5/2a

5/2a+5=1

Subtract 5 from both side

5/2a=1-5

Subtract 5 from 1 to get −4.

5/2a=-4

Multiply both sides by 2/5 =0.4, the reciprocal of  5/2=2.5.

a=-4x(2/5)

express -4x(2/5)=1.6 as single  fraction.

a= -4x2/5

Multiply −4 and 2 to get −8.

a=-8/5

Fraction −8/5 ≈−1.6 can be rewritten as −8/5 =−1.6 by extracting the negative sign.

a=-8/5

When you divide a whole number by a fraction with a numerator of how can you find the quotient
UNO [17]
All you have to do is change the whole number to a fraction. Say you have 4 divided by 1/2. All you have to do to make a whole number a fraction is put it over 1. So now you would have 4/1 (4 being the numerator) divided by 1/2. When you divide fractions always remember this; Keep, Switch, Flip. Keep 4/1, Flip the division sign to multiplication, and Flip 1/2 to make it 2/1. Then you multiply the numerators and the denominators. So 4/1 * 2/1 = 8/1. Hope this helped.

Determine whether the forces in the pair are pulling at right angles to each other.
snow_tiger [21]
Given:
right triangle
a = 2.9
c = 4.2

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

missing value of b.

b² = c² - a²
b² = (4.2)² - (2.9)²
b² = 17.64 - 8.41
b² = 9.23
b = √9.23
b = 3.03 or 3.0 

The value of b is 3.0
