Lets think of it this way:-
1/2 is one half
Whats half of 12? 6
Now, 7 is greater than 6, which means the fraction 7/12 is greater than 1/2
Answer: 7/12 is bigger
Answer:
(4, 5 )
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 9 → (1)
x - y = - 1 → (2)
adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate y
2x + 0 = 8
2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 4
substitute x = 4 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
substituting into (1)
4 + y = 9 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
y = 5
solution is (4, 5 )
Answer:
the "negative solution" is -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the number by n.
Then n^2 - 24 = 5n
We rewrite this in standard quadratic form:
n^2 - 5n - 24 = 0
This factors as follows; (n + 3)(n - 8) = 0
The roots are n = -3 and n = 8. Thus, the "negative solution" is -3
66,000*0.15
9,900*5
49,500+66000
The answer is 115.500
I'm not sure if the whole thing is correct, but here is the easier way:
66,000(1+1.15)^5
