5x-10+6 (then you sum the like terms)
5x-4
the answer is B 5x-4
One way in which to do this problem would involve subtracting 5 from 7 (result: 2) and then subtracting 3/5 from 8/9.
To subtract 3/5 from 8/9, you'd need to find the lowest common denominator (LCD) of 3/5 and 8/9, convert both fractions to have this LCD, and then subtract.
The LCD is (5)(9)=45. Then 8/9 and 3/5 become 40/45 and 27/45.
Subtracting 27/45 from 40/45 results in the fraction 13/45.
Then the full solution is 2 13/45.
You could also do this problem by converting 7 8/9 and 5 3/5 into improper fractions:
71/9 - 28/5. Again, the LCD is 45. Can you rewrite both fractions with 45 as the common denominator and then perform the subtraction?
Answer:
20 mens
Step-by-step explanation:
12 men can plant paddy in 10 hours
1 man can plant the paddy in (10 × 12) hours
10 × 12 / 6 = 20
You are solving for the height. Use the formula:
c² - b² = a² in which c = hypotenuse
(13)² - (5)² = a²
Simplify
169 - 25 = a²
144 = a²
Isolate the a. Root both sides
√144 = √a²
a = √144
a = √(12 x 12)
a = 12
C) 12 feet is your answer
