Answer:

25/24

Step-by-step explanation:

5/12 * 1 = 5/12

1 = 2/2

5/12 * 1 = (5/12) * (2/2) = (5*2)/(12*2) = 10/24

3/3 = 1

5/8 * 1 = (5/8) * (3/3) = (5*3)/(8*3) = 15/24

then:

(5/12) + (5/8) = (10/24) + (15/24) = (10+15) / 24 = 25/24

Answer:

1 1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

5/12 + 5/8

We need a common denominator of 24

Convert the first number to have a denominator of 24

5/12 *2/2 = 10/24

Convert the second number to have a denominator of 24

5/8*3/3 = 15/24

Add the two converted numbers together

10/24 + 15/24

25/24

Change from an improper fraction to a mixed number

24/24 + 1/24

1 1/24

Solve for x. Assume that lines which appear tangent are tangent.

NeX [460]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle formed by two tangents intersecting outside of a circle is half the difference of the intercepted arcs.

This implies that:

$55=\frac{1}{2}(116x+3-(180-55))$

We need to simplify this ad solve for x to get:

$110=(116x+3-125)$

Group the similar terms to get:

$110-3+125=116x$

232=116x

Divide by 116 to get:

x=2

Mikaela friends brought a big box of crackers to the movies. 53 crackers are whole wheat and 29 are cheese flavored. The remaini

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: 123 crackers

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/3 of the box contains sesame seed crackers, then, 2/3 of the box contains whole wheat and cheese flavored crackers.

Total number of whole wheat and cheese flavored crackers = 53 + 29 = 82

Let x be the total number of crackers in the box, so we will have the equation

2/3 x= 82

x = 82 ÷ 2/3; we will get

X =82 x 3/2

X = 123 crackers

Help me with this?<br> ______________

Simora [160]

Answer:

Austin will have to buy 180 squares of carpeting.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the dimension of the room. We do that by multiplying the width times the length and then subtracting the cut out region in the top right. And, in order to know how big that region we cut out is, we have to do a little subtraction.

We know the room is 18' long on the left side and 12' long on the right side. We subtract 12 from 18 to get 6, and we know that the cut out region is 6' long. We do the same thing with the width, 25' wide at the bottom minus 10' wide at the top and we see that the cut out is 15' wide.

18 x 25 = 450

6 x 15 = 90

450 - 90 = 360. The area of the room is 360 $ft^{2}$

Each piece of carpet is 2' by 1'. So for every 2' long, the piece of carpet is 1' wide. Each carpet piece will cover 2 $ft^{2}$ . Divide 360 by 2 and you get 180.
