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

In this question, you have to isolate <em>x</em>.

First, use the distributive property.

3x+30=4x+32

Now that you have distributed, subtract the constants.

jennifer walks 8 miles in the same time she can jog 13 miles. if her jogging speed is 8mph faster than her walking speed, how fa
Elanso [62]

Answer:

12.8mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'w' represent her walking speed

->if her jogging speed is 8mph faster than her walking speed

Jogging speed=  w+8

Using the time equation i.e time = dist/speed

For walking when distance is 8miles

time = dist / speed= 8/w hrs

For jogging when distance is 13miles

time = dist / speed= 13/(w+8) hrs

Equating the time

jog time = walk time

13/(w+8) = 8/w

By cross multiplying it

13w = 8w + 64

5w = 64

w=64/5

w=12.8mph

Therefore, 12.8mph is her walking speed.

m_a_m_a [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

cos θ = 3 / AB

When θ = 28°:

cos 28° = 3 / AB

AB = 3 / cos 28°

AB ≈ 3.4

When AB = 5.2:

cos θ = 3 / 5.2

θ = cos⁻¹(3 / 5.2)

θ ≈ 54.8°
