Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a 20 ounce bottle. You pour out 1/4 of it.

20 x 1/4 = 20/4 = 5   You pour out 5 ounces.

20 - 5 = 15 ounces

If you pour out 3 ounces for yourself,  15 - 3 = 12

what fraction of the 20 ounces (original or total amount) will be left in the bottle?

12 ounces is left after pouring out 1/4 of the bottle for your friend and 3 ounces for yourself. 20 ounces was the total amount you first had in the bottle. The fraction that is left is calculated by dividing the amount left (12) by the total (20)

12/20  BUT each number can be divided by/reduced by 4, so dividing each number by 4  (12/4 = 3, 20/4 =5) gives 3/5.

3/5

Answer:   A) 3x + 5x - 4 = 1

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

The second equation is y + 4 = 5x.  Solve this equation for y by subtracting 4 from both sides. --> y = 5x - 4

Now replace "y" in the first equation with "5x - 4".

     3x +      y     = 1

-->  3x + (5x - 4) = 1

What is the length of the tree? Show steps!
Leona [35]

Answer:

The tree is 14 ft. tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Ryan is 6 ft. tall and his shadow is 12 ft. tall than his shadow is twice his size. So if the trees shadow is 28 ft. tall then you would divide. Here is the equation:

28 ÷ 2 = 14

ASHA 777 [7]
First we have to note which number represents which axis. As a general rule x axis represents first number. It describes if figure is moving left or right.

Second number is y axis and it describes if figure is moving up or down.

Now that we said that we can see that x axis increased by 2 while y axis decreased by 1. Description that matches is:

1 square down and 2 squares right.
