Answer: Simplified form is

$1\frac{5}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

$5\frac{1}{3}-3\frac{9}{18}$

Now, we will simplify it with the following steps :

$5\frac{1}{3}-3\frac{9}{18}\\\\=\frac{16}{3}-3\frac{1}{2}\\\\=\frac{16}{3}-\frac{7}{2}\\\\=\frac{32-21}{6}\\\\=\frac{11}{6}\\\\=1\frac{5}{6}$

Hence, simplified form is

$1\frac{5}{6}$

<span>Make 1/3 = 6/18. 5 + (-3) = 2. 6/18 + 9/18 = 15/18. Simplify 15/18 divide each number by 3. 15 / 3 = 5/ 18 / 3 = 6. 5/6 All together the answer is 2 5/6</span>

For a certain race, 4 teams were allowed to enter 3 members each. A team earned 9 – n points whenever one of its members finishe

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

D. 3 Points

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Members = 3$

$Point = 9 - n$

$1 \leq\ n \leq 8$

Required

Determine the least possible score

The least point a member of a team can get is when n = 8.

i.e.

$Point = 9 - n$

$Point = 9- 8$

$Point = 1$

To get the least score, each of the 3 members must have 1 point each.

So:

$Total = 3 * 1$

$Total = 3$

5. Explain how you could use compatible numbers to estimate 245 ÷ 3. Then estimate the quotient.

sdas [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Compatible numbers are defined as the numbers which are very close to the numbers that they are replacing that divides evenly into each other.

In the context, we have to estimate the quotient using the compatible numbers in order to estimate 245 divided by 3.

So, estimating 245 as 240 and 3 as 30.

Here, 240 is very close to 245 and 30 is close to 3. So the quotient is the result when we divide 240 by 30 and it divides evenly into 240.

We first divide the non zero parts of each number i.e. 24 by 3 to get the first part of the estimate.

Then we add on the zero if there were left in the problem to get your estimate.

Therefore,

240 / 30 = 8

So here, the quotient is estimated as 8.

Assume that $4,000 I deposited into an investment account doubled in value over a six year period. What annual interest rate mus

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Interest rate is about 12.246%

The initial deposit doesn't matter because when you divide both sides by the initial deposit you're always left with (1+i)ⁿ=2

Step-by-step explanation:

$4000(1+i)^6=8000\\(1+i)^6=2\\1+i=\sqrt[6]{2} \\1+i=1.122462048\\i=.12246$
