Use a number line if you need 4/10 - 6/10 = -2/10a simpler way is to do the opposite 6/10 - 4/10 = 2/10  then the answer would be the opposite as well. so, -2/10

It's going to become a negative number. You have to change the subtraction sign to addition, then take the second term and change it to a negative. Then you add it. Since one is positive and the other is negative, you have to subtract the absolute values ( just the number without the negative sign) which ever Nemertea has the greater absolute value, that sign is going to be the sign for the answer. I know it's long and confusing. Sorry

The table lists recommended amounts of food to order for 25 party guests. Nathan and Amanda are hosting a graduation party for 4
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: 25 guests is 2.5 times more than 10

Multiply each order by 2.5

Chicken = 16 x 2.5 = 40

Lasagna = 7 x 2.5 = 17.5 , round to 18

Deli meat = 1.8 x 2.5 = 4.5, round to 5

Sliced cheese = 15 x 2.5 = 37.5, round to 38

Buns = 1 x 2.5 = 2.5, round to 3

Potato salad = 2 x 2.5 = 5

The given number sentence is simplified as 1 3/5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The given number sentence is 2-4/5 x 1/2

  • In order to solve this, the operations must be performed based on the BODMAS rule.
  • This means that, the operations should be performed in the order of Bracket, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction.

Here, based on that above rule, the multiplication must be done in the first step and then subtraction should be done in the next step.

⇒ 2 - 4/5 × 1/2

⇒ 2 - 4/10

⇒ 2 - 2/5

Therefore, the given expression is reduced to 2- 2/5

cross multiply the denominator 5

⇒ (10-2) / 5

⇒ 8/5

Now, the expression is reduced to single term 8/5.

To further reduce the term, divide 8 by 5.

  • The quotient is 1.
  • The remainder is 3.
  • The divisor is 5.

The answer is written in the form of Quotient(Remainder/ divisor)

⇒ 1 3/5

Okay so to represent juice we are going to use X, and to represent water we are going to use Y.

We also know that the first two starting equations are:

6x + y = 135

4x + 2y = 110

We can re-arrange the first equation so that it equals y (for now), so it is going to end up looking like this:

y = -6x +135

Now you can take that equation and plug into either one of the starting two equations.  I chose the second equation.  We just substitute what y equals in for y in the equation, so we have:

4x + 2(135 - 6x) =  110

Now solve

4x + 270 -12x = 110

-8x + 270 = 110

Subtract 270 from both sides

-8x = -160

Now divide by -8 on both sides

x = 20

We can now confirm that juice costs $20

Now lets plug that into the equation where we solved for y, to get the actual value of y.

y = 135 - 6(20)

y = 135 - 120

y = 15

The price of water costs $15

From this we can conclude that the cost of juice is $20 and the price of water is $15
