Answer as an improper fraction = 16/5
Answer as a mixed number = 3 & 1/5
Answer in decimal form = 3.2
All of those values represent the same thing, but written in a different way.
=============================================================
Explanation:
I'm assuming HM stands for Harmonic Mean in this case.
If so, then we apply the reciprocal operation to each value to get 1/2 and 1/8 (from 2 and 8 respectively).
Add up those fractions:
1/2 + 1/8 = 4/8 + 1/8 = 5/8
Now we'll divide n = 2 over that result. The n = 2 refers to the number of items in the original set.
n divide over (5/8) = 2*(8/5) = 16/5 which is the answer as an improper fraction
-----------
To convert to a mixed number, we can do the following:
16/5 = (15+1)/5
16/5 = 15/5 + 1/5
16/5 = 3 + 1/5
16/5 = 3 & 1/5
Or if you need the answer in decimal form, then using a calculator would get you 16/5 = 3.2
Carey earns c hourly
Anderson earns $6 hourly which is also 1+ c/2So, 6=1+c/2 12=2+cc=$10

Since the common difference is 6, we can assume that the sequence is arithmetic, with rule
T(n)=6n+5 where T(1)=11
T(9)=6(9)+5=59
; where a = 1, b = -4 and c = 8
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Open
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
An open equation is an equation that has variables and CAN be solved
<u>Example</u>: 2x = 4 ......> can be solved giving ......> x = 2
A false equation is one where both sides can NEVER be equal
<u>Example:</u> 15 = 2(3) + 1 ..........> 15 can never be equal to 7
A true equation is one having no variables and both sides are ALWAYS equal
<u>Example:</u> 2(3) + 1 = 2(2) + 3 ........> 7 will always be equal to 7
Now, the given equation is:
4y + 8 = 6y + 3
Let's try to solve is:
4y + 8 = 6y + 3
6y - 4y = 8 - 3
2y = 5
y = 2.5
Therefore, the given equation contains a variable and can be solved which means that it is an open equation
Hope this helps :)
