First we need to find the least common multiple of the denominators.

40 is is divisible by 8, 5, and 4, so we will use it as our common denominator.

Then we need to multiply the numerators by the same amount we had to multiply each denominator by to get 40.

For example, 8 is the denominator of the first fraction. To make it 40, we multiply by 5. We need to also multiply the numerator 3 by the same 5 to keep the fraction the same. So the 3 becomes 3*5 = 15.

The numerators in order after doing this are 15, -32, -15, and 50. Now add these add.

15-32-15+50 = 18.

Put this sum over the common denominator to get the final answer.

18/40 which can be simplified to 9/20.

The answer is 9/20

3/8+(-4/5)+(-3/8)+5/4

Remember a positive and a negative will be negative.

=3/8-4/5-3/8+5/4

Now you need a common denominator for all of them, but if you notice that 3/8-3/8=0, you are left with:
=-4/5+5/4

5 and 4 both go into 20. So your common denominator is 20. 5 goes in to 20 four times (so 4*4=16 =16/20).
4 goes in to 20 five times (so 5*5=25/20).

Remember 4/5 was negative:
=-16/20+25/20
=9/20

9 and 20 do not have any common factors, so this is the answer.

Hope this helps!! :)

gulaghasi [49]
$70 = 270 min
x = 1260 min
Where x is the charge of phone service per 1260 min.

Cross multiply:
1260 * 70 = 270 * x
88200 = 270x
88200/270 = x
x = 326.67

The total charge of cellular phone service for 1260 min is $326.67

nordsb [41]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A.  2 square feet

  B.  draw a diagonal; 1 square foot

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The area of a parallelogram is given by the formula ...

  A = bh

Here the base (b) is 3 feet, and the height (h) is 2/3 ft. The area is ...

  A = (3 ft)(2/3 ft) = 2 ft^2 . . . . area of the parallelogram

__

B. <em>Drawing a diagonal</em> (AC or BD) will divide the figure into two congruent triangles. Each triangle has the same base and height as the original parallelogram. The area of one of the triangles is given by ...

  A = 1/2bh

Using the given dimensions, ...

  A = 1/2(3 ft)(2/3 ft) = 1 ft^2 . . . . area of one triangle
