To solve this, you do:
110 divided by 5 1/2.
If you want your answer in fraction form, you do:
110/1 ÷ 11/2 (the improper fraction form)
To multiply, flip the second fraction to change from dividing to mutiplying:
110/1 × 2/11
Multiply across
110 × 2 = 220 and 1 × 11 = 11
220/11
Simplify:
220 ÷ 11 = 20
Tom babysat for 20 hours.

Two times Antonio’s age plus three times Sarah’s age equals 34. Sarah’s age is also five times Antonio’s age. How old is Sarah?
sergejj [24]
Let Sarah's age be s and Antonio's age be a.

According to your question,

2a + 3s = 34
s = 5a

substituting the value of s in eq. 1,

2a + 3(5a) = 34

= 2a + 15 a = 34

17a = 34

thus, a = 34/17 = 2

substituting the value of a is s,

s = 5(2)
= 10

Thus, Sarah's age is 10 years and Antonio's age is 2 years.

What is the endpoint formula given midpoint?
zysi [14]

Answer:

  B = 2M -A

Step-by-step explanation:

For given endpoint A and midpoint M, the other endpoint B can be found using the definition of the midpoint:

  M = (A+B)/2

  2M = A+B . . . . . multiply by 2

  2M-A = B . . . . . subtract A

The second endpoint can be found by subtracting the given endpoint from twice the midpoint:

  B = 2M -A

An arithmetic series has seven terms. the first term is 5 and the last term is 53. find the sum of the series!
Kisachek [45]
The easiest way is to use (& to memorize) the sum formula for a AP:


Sum = 1st term added to the last term & multiplied by half the number of terms
S = (a+l)n/2

S = (5 + 53)(7/2) = 203
