<h3>Answer: Choice C) -2 & 1/8</h3>

==============================================

Work Shown:

5 & 5/8 = 5 + 5/8

-5 & 5/8 = -(5 & 5/8) = -(5 + 5/8) = -5 - 5/8

So,

( -5 & 5/8 ) + ( 3 & 1/2 )

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

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

-2 + (-1/8)

-(2 + 1/8)

-(2 & 1/8)

-2 & 1/8

------------------------

Alternative Method

We could convert each mixed number to decimal form

-5 & 5/8 = -5-5/8 = -5.625

3 & 1/2 = 3+1/2 = 3.5

( -5 & 5/8 ) + ( 3 & 1/2 ) = -5.625+3.5 = -2.125

Then convert back to mixed number form

-2.125 = -2 & 125/1000

-2.125 = -2 & (1*125)/(8*125)

-2.125 = -2 & 1/8

8 is the answer because when you add 11+4 you get 16 and then you would subtract that from 24 which would give you 8. Idk where you got "PA" ?

Find the area of this shape. Correct answer will Brainliest
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

As shown in picture, this is a trapezoid.

The area of a trapezoid is calculated by:

A = (base1 + base2) x height x (1/2)

To work out A, we need to find out base1, base2, and height.

base1  = YZ = \sqrt{(Zx - Yx)^{2} + (Zy - Yy)^{2} } = \sqrt{(5 - 2)^{2} + (5 - 5)^{2} } = 3

base2 = XW =\sqrt{(Wx - Xx)^{2} + (Wy - Xy)^{2} } = \sqrt{(8 - 1)^{2} + (1 - 1)^{2} } = 7

Otherwise, the height (distance between base1 and base2) is 4 as shown in picture.

=> A = (3 + 7) x 4 x (1/2) = 20

Hope this helps!

:)

1 and 5/6 + 2 and 2/11
lions [1.4K]
1 \frac{5}{6} +2 \frac{2}{11} =\frac{(1\times6)+5}{6} +\frac{(2\times 11)+2}{11} =\frac{11}{6}+\frac{24}{11} \\\\=\frac{11\times 11}{6\times 11} +\frac{24\times6}{11\times6} =\frac{121}{66} +\frac{144}{66}=\frac{121+144}{66} =\frac{265}{66}\\\\=\boxed{\bf{4\frac{1}{66}}}
