So firstly, I'm going to be converting the mixed number into an improper fraction. To do this, multiply the whole number by the denominator and then add that product with the numerator and that will be your new numerator. In this case:

3 × 8 = 24, 24 + 3 = 27. \frac{-27}{8}

Now since they have the same denominator, you can subtract the numerators.

\frac{-27}{8}-\frac{7}{8}=\frac{-34}{8}

Now simplify the number as such:

\frac{-34}{8}\div\frac{2}{2}=\frac{-17}{4}

<u>In short, your answer is -17/4, or -4 1/4.</u>

Prove that every integer greater than 7 can be written by using 3's and 5's only. that is, for every n &gt; 7 there exist non-ne

An integer may be a multiple of 3.
An integer may be 1 greater than a multiple of 3.
An integer may be 2 greater than a multiple of 3.

It is redundant to say an integer is 3 greater than a multiple of 3 (that's just a multiple of 3, we've got it covered).  Same for 4, 5, 6, 7...

Let's consider a number which is a multiple of 3.  Clearly, we can write 3+3+3+3+... until we reach the number.  It can be written as only 3's.

Let's consider a number which is 2 greater than a multiple of 3.  If we subtract 5 from that number, it'll be a multiple of 3.  That means we can write the number as 5+3+3+3+3+...  Of course, the number must be at least 8.

Let's consider a number which is 1 greater than a multiple of 3.  If we subtract 5 from that number, it'll be 2 greater than a multiple of 3.  If we subtract another 5, it'll be a multiple of 3.  That means we can write the number as 5+5+3+3+3+3+...  Of course, the number must be at least 13.

That's it.  We considered all the numbers.  We forgot 9, 10, 11, and 12, but these are easy peasy.

Beautiful question.

To paint his room ted prepared 2 gallons of a paint mixture at a ratio of 3:1 white to blue. If he later decide to dilute the co
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

White = 1.67 gallons

Blue = 0.33 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

White : blue = 3 : 1

Total ratio = 3 + 1

= 4

Gallons = 2

White = 3 /4 × 2

= 6 /4

= 3/2 gallons

Blue = 1 / 4 × 2

= 2/4

= 1/2

If he later decide to dilute the color to a ratio of 5:1

Total ratio = 5 + 1

= 6

Total gallons = 2

White = 5 / 6 × 2

= 10/6

= 5/3 gallons

Or

= 1.67 gallons

Blue = 1 / 6 × 2

= 2 / 6

= 1/3 gallons

Or

= 0.33 gallons

The center of a circle is (0, -8). The radius is 9. What is the equation of the circle? Select all that apply.
taurus [48]

Answer:

x² + (y + 8)² = 81

Step-by-step explanation:

Centre (h,k) = (0,-8)

radius (r) = 9

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

(x - 0)² + (y + 8)² = 9²

x² + (y + 8)² = 81
