Answer:

The simplified fraction is \frac{-31}{4}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided fraction.

(\frac{1}{2})^2-6(2-\frac{2}{3})

(\frac{1}{4})-6(2-\frac{2}{3})

Distributive property:

a(b+c)=ab+ac

Use the distributive property to simplify the above fraction.

(\frac{1}{4})-12+4

(\frac{1}{4})-8

\frac{1-32}{4}

\frac{-31}{4}

Hence, the simplified fraction is \frac{-31}{4}.

Step-by-step explanation:

So the sign means that y has to be less than or equal to x plus 9

if you wanted an answer an example could be

x = 10

this works because if implemented into the equation

1 ≤ 10 + 9 which is true

6 + 2/5b = 12<br><br> What does “b” equal?
Elis [28]

Answer:

B = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction</u>

6 + 2b/5 = 12

<u>Subtract 6 from both sides</u>

6 + 2b/5 <em>(-6)</em> = 12 <em>(-6)   </em>= 2b/5 = 6

<u>Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators</u>

2b/5 <em>( x 5) </em>= 6<em> (x 5)</em>

<em />

<u>Simplify</u>

2b = 30

Jim went by bus to visit his uncle. He left at 10 A.M. and arrived at 4 P.M. The bus traveled 270 mi. What was its average speed
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Average speed, S = 45 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Take-off time = 10 AM

Arrival time = 4 PM

Distance = 270 miles

To find the average speed of the bus;

First of all, we would determine the total time.

10 AM to 4 PM = 6 hours

Total time = 6 hours

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

Speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Speed = \frac{270}{6}

<em>Average speed, S = 45 mph</em>

<em />

<em>Therefore, the average speed of the bus is 45 miles per hour.</em>
