Subtract 3/5 from 1 2/3.

Re-write the problem as "subtract 3/5 from 5/3."

 5     3
--- - -----
 3      5

Note that the LCD here is (3)(5) = 15.
Multiply 5/3 by (15/15) and also multiply 3/5 by (15/15).  Your result should be 

     25          9
   -------  -  -----
      15        15

Subtracting, we get   16/15.  This is the answer.  The green peppers weighed 16/15 lb, or 1 1/15 lb, more than did the other peppers.

Answer:

315

Step-by-step explanation:

1. This is not a scale rectangle and it angers me.

2. All you have to do is draw proportions.

5x7=35

15x21=315

Youll notice that 5x3=15 and 7x3=21 so it’s just proportions!

Find K such that the points (-2, 5), (2, 8) and (6, K) are collinear.
damaskus [11]

Answer:

k = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

let the points be A(-2,5), B(2,8), C(6,K).

for the points to be collinear slope of line AB maust be equal to line BC.

slope of line AB = \frac{8-5}{2+2}=\frac{3}{4}

slope of line BC = \frac{k-8}{6-2}=\frac{k-8}{4}

therefore \frac{k-8}{4}= \frac{3}{4}

therefore k = 8 + 3

k = 11

In the diagram, △ABC∼△DEF. The area of △ABC is 180 square centimeters. Find the area of △DEF.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find out the similarity reason of the sides of the triangle, so we just divide the big side by the small side (12/4=3).

Now, for the similarity reason of the areas, we just square that number (3^2=9).

Then we just divide the area of the big triangle by 9, which is 180/9= 20.
