Answer:

$2\frac{1}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \:2\frac{3}{5} = \frac{47x-36}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

$2\frac{1}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \:2\frac{3}{5}$

Simplifying the expression

$\frac{1}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \:2\frac{3}{5}$

$\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 2\frac{1}{4}=\frac{9}{4}$

$\frac{9}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \frac{13}{5}$

$\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 2\frac{3}{5}=\frac{13}{5}$

$\frac{9}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \frac{13}{5}$

$\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 4\frac{1}{3}=\frac{13}{3}$

$\frac{9}{4}x+\left(\frac{13}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \frac{13}{5}$

$\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 7\frac{4}{5}=\frac{39}{5}$

$\frac{9}{4}x+\left(\frac{13}{3}x-\frac{39}{5}\right)\div \frac{13}{5}$

$\frac{9}{4}x=\frac{9x}{4}$

and

$\frac{\frac{13}{3}x-\frac{39}{5}}{\frac{13}{5}}=\frac{5\cdot \frac{65x-117}{15}}{13}$

So,

$\frac{9x}{4}+\frac{5\cdot \frac{65x-117}{15}}{13}$

$\mathrm{Least\:Common\:Multiplier\:of\:}4,\:13:\quad 52$

$\mathrm{Adjust\:Fractions\:based\:on\:the\:LCM}$

$\frac{117x}{52}+\frac{\frac{4\left(65x-117\right)}{3}}{52}$

$\mathrm{Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions}:\quad \frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c}$

$\mathrm{Join}\:117x+\frac{4\left(65x-117\right)}{3}:\quad \frac{611x-468}{3}$

$\frac{\frac{611x-468}{3}}{52}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a}=\frac{b}{c\:\cdot \:a}$

$\frac{611x-468}{3\cdot \:52}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:3\cdot \:52=156$

$\frac{611x-468}{156}$

$\mathrm{Factor}\:611x-468:\quad 13\left(47x-36\right)$

$\frac{13\left(47x-36\right)}{156}$

$\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:13$

$\frac{47x-36}{12}$

Therefore, $2\frac{1}{4}x+\left(4\frac{1}{3}x-7\frac{4}{5}\right)\div \:2\frac{3}{5} = \frac{47x-36}{12}$

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (−2,8) and (1,−1)

dem82 [27]

Answer:

y = -3x + 2

Explanation:

Do the rise over run equation to find slope

Slope = 3

Plug in slope to equation and also choose one of the coordinate points to plug in x and y so you can find b

Plug in all of this to get final y=mx+b form

Clare has a recipe for yellow cake. She uses 913 cups of flour to make 4 cakes. Noah will follow the same recipe. He will make c

sergejj [24]

Answer:

(C)c= $\frac{3}{7}$ f

Step-by-step explanation:

Clare uses $9\frac{1}{3}$ cups of flour to make 4 cakes.

It means she uses 1 cup of flour to make $4\div9\frac{1}{3}$ cakes.

Let us simplify that expression first for future use.

$4\div9\frac{1}{3}=4\div\frac{28}{3} =4 X \frac{3}{28} =\frac{3}{7}$

Therefore, Clare uses 1 cup of flour to make $\frac{3}{7}$ cakes.

If Noah follows the same recipe,

He uses f cups of flour to make c cakes

Using Ratio Method

→ Name : Cup : Cake

→ Clare : 1 : $\frac{3}{7}$

→ Noah : f : c

By using cross multiplication

c X 1 = $\frac{3}{7}$ f

c= $\frac{3}{7}$ f

The equation c= $\frac{3}{7}$ f represents the relationship between c and f

1. If one side of the square is 12in, what is the perimeter and area of the parallelogram?

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Not sure for 1. Area might be 144. Perimeter might be 50. I got perimeter by finding slant height of the parallelogram and then substituting it to the perimeter formula (P=2(a+b) where a is a side and b is a base). I found area by just multiplying 12*12 since to find area of parallelogram, it is base x height.

2. 45, 135, 135

Step-by-step explanation:

2. We know that an isosceles trapezoid has congruent base angles and congruent upper angles, so if one base angle measures 45 degrees, the other base angle will also be 45 degrees.

For the upper angles, we know that diagonal angles are supplementary, so 180- base angle 1 (45 degrees)= upper angle 1

180-45=upper angle 1

upper angle 1 = 135 degrees

Mentioned above, upper angles are congruent, so upper angles 1 and 2 will be 135 degrees.

Check: The sum of angles in a quadrilateral is equal to 360 degrees. We can use this to check if our answer is correct.

135+135=270 degrees (sum of upper angles)

45+45= 90 degrees (sum of base angles)

270+90=360

So the angle measures of the other three angles are 135, 135, and 45.

Hope this helps!

Urgent…. I need help

Firdavs [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out the answer, there is a method that can be used to find out if a line is a function. It is called the vertical line method. And it also has to be per x, One y value has to be there. Analyzing the graphs, the answer should be option A.
