5 7/8 - 2 9/10

we can make 5 7/8 into an improper fraction of 47/8

we can also make 2 9/10 into an improper fraction of 29/10

find a common multiple between the denominators 10 and 8 - the smallest would be 40

47/8 will be made into 235/40

29/10 will be made into 116/40

235/40 - 116/40 = 119/40

simplify 119/40 and you get 2 39/40

decimal form is 2.975

Mary earns $6 per hour as a waitress. Last week she took home her regular earnings of $6 per hour plus $185 in tips for a total
Daniel [21]
Mary worked 22 hours.


To solve first you would subtract the amount she made in tips from her total earnings (317-185)
= 132
Then you divide that answer by her hourly salary of $6 (132/6)
=22

For any integer x,x2-x will always produce an even value
Levart [38]

Consider expression x^2-x. First, you can factor it:

x^2-x=x(x-1).

Since x is integer number, then you can see that x-1 is previous integer number (x-1 is 1 unit smaller than x).

Therefore, x-1 and x are two consecutive integers. When you have two consecutive integers, one of them is always even and one is always odd. Multiplying even integer number by odd integer number you always get even integer number.

Thus, x^2-x is always even.
