Answer to the first question: 7/10ths of a mile
Explaination: When adding fractions, you need to have a common denominator. Since dividing 3/10 by 2 to get a denominator of 5 makes 3 a decimal, it's easier to multiply 2/5 by 2 to get a denominator of 10. You do the same to the top that you do to the bottom: . From there, just add 4/10 and 3/10 to get the answer: 7/10ths of a mile.
Answer to the second question: Daniel read three (3/10) more books
Explaination: Since you can't evenly multiply 5 or 2 to get the opposite number, it's easier to multiply to the lowest common multiple. The easiest way to find that is to multiply both denominators (5*2=10). You'll have to multiply the numerator by the same amount you multipled the denominator by. For Daniel, that would mean: . For Edgar, that would mean: . So, Daniel read 3 more books than Edgar.
Answer to the third question: 2/4 mile (or 1/2 a mile)
Explaination: 2/8 can be simplified, by dividing the top and bottom by 2, resulting in 1/4. Since both fractions have the same denominator (/4), you can add them to get 2/4ths. This can be simplified further to half (1/2) a mile.
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the amount resulting from P earning interest at rate r continuously compounded is ...
A = Pe^(rt)
for P=2500 and r=0.12, this becomes ...
A = 2500e^(0.12t)
Question #2
Erica will have to work for 14 hours in order to buy her sneakers.
How to solve:
You subtract $31 from $150 which equals to $119
You multiply 8.50 (which is the amount of money she gets paid every hour) by the answers they gave you.
8.50 multiplied by 14 is 199
Erica had to work 14 hours to make $199
Your answer is D) 14
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
the sum of all angles in a quadrilateral must be 360º
y+88+25+35 = 360
y = 360=88-25-35
y = 212º
b)
the sum of all angles in an octagon must be 1080º
45+45+140+140+6y = 1080
6y = 1080-90-280
6y = 710
y = 710/6
y=~ 118,3º
