2/5 is the answer to this question because of distributive property. 1/10+1/2=3/5 Then, 3/5-1/5 is equal to 2/5.

First you get p on the side by itself p=1/10-1/5+1/2. Next you find a common denomenator which is 10 so p=1/10-2/10+5/10 and you get 4/10 which reduces to 2/5. To check this on a Ti-84 calculator store 2/5 for x and put x in the place of p and type in the equation and your answer will be 1/10

He legs of an isosceles triangle have lengths x + 1 and -x + 7 . The base has length 3x - 3. What is the length of the base?

marishachu [46]

$x + 1 = - x + 7$
$= 6$
$6 = 3(x) - 3$
$6 + 3 = 3x$
$9 = 3x$
$x = 3$
base is c. 3

Students were surveyed about their favorite colors 1/4 of the students preferred, red 1/8 of the students preferred blue and 3/5

Scrat [10]

Let x be the total number of students.

The total of red + blue = x/4 + x/8
The remaining will be : x - x/4 -x/8
But we know the green at 3/5 of the remaining, so the green = 3/5(x - x/4 -x/8)
We also know that 3/5(x - x/4 -x/8) = 15
Solve this equation: and you will find x = 40 (number of students)
