14.4, 120% of 12 is 100+20, 12+2.4 is 14.4
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : In the Sahara Desert one day it was 136°F.
In the Gobi Desert a temperature of -50°F was recorded.
Clearly , 136°F> -50°F
Then, the difference between these two temperatures will be :-
![136^{\circ}F-(-50)^{\circ}F\\\\=(136+50)^{\circ}F\ \ [\because \text{Product two neagtive sign is positive]}\\\\=186^{\circ}F](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=136%5E%7B%5Ccirc%7DF-%28-50%29%5E%7B%5Ccirc%7DF%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%28136%2B50%29%5E%7B%5Ccirc%7DF%5C%20%5C%20%5B%5Cbecause%20%5Ctext%7BProduct%20two%20neagtive%20sign%20is%20positive%5D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D186%5E%7B%5Ccirc%7DF)
Hence, the difference between these two temperatures = 
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, it says that the company not only shipped packages, but also bought a number of stamps. From the equation 6.70+0.50x, it's fairly easy to say that 6.70 is the packages,
What's not so easy is figuring out whether or not 0.50 is the stamps, or x is. However, there's an easy way to figure it out!
From this one, we would have to use "common sense" (not my words, someone elses). Using "common sense", we have to think, can someone buy 0.50 of a stamp?
Technically yes... But would someone buy 0.5 of a stamp? Not really.
So we can safetly assume that x is the "stamp", and 0.50 is <em>the cost of the stamp</em>.
Hope this helps!
So if I understand correctly, she had 7 1/8 pounds of birdseed and used 3/8 pound.
Convert the 7 1/8 to an improper fraction [(8*7)+1]/8 =57/8
57/8 - 3/8 = 54/8, which is 6 6/8 which reduces to 6 3/4 pounds left
If she had 7 pounds of birdseed and used 3/8 pounds, you need to find a common denominator to subtract if you can't do it in your head. 8 would be the common denominator, so:
56/8 - 3/8 = 53/8, which is 6 5/8 pounds left
