Answer:

5/8 of a cup

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is you add 1/2 and 3/4 together.

1/2+3/4=5/4.

Noel used half of 5/4 so you would multiply it by 1/2

5/4*1/2=5/8 is your answer.

Answer:

B.  5/8 of a cup

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 + 3/4

find common denominator

Answer:

Therefore,

Q(x,y)=(8,-3)

As Q is such that Segment AB is partitioned into 1 : 1

1 : 1 means Equally divided in two parts.

∴ Q is the midpoint of AB

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Q is such that Segment AB is partitioned into 1 : 1  

Let ,

A(x₁ , y₁) = (6, -2) and  

B(x₂ , y₂) = (10, -4)

To Find:

Q( x , y ) = ?

Solution:

As Q is such that Segment AB is partitioned into 1 : 1

1 : 1 means Equally divided in two parts.

∴ Q is the midpoint of AB then By Mid point Formula the Coordinate of Q is given by,

Mid\ point(AB)=(\dfrac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2}, \dfrac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2})

Substituting the values we get

Q(x,y)=(\dfrac{6+10}{2}, \dfrac{-2+-4}{2})

Q(x,y)=(\dfrac{16}{2}, \dfrac{-6}{2})=(8,-3)

Therefore,

Q(x,y)=(8,-3)

As Q is such that Segment AB is partitioned into 1 : 1

1 : 1 means Equally divided in two parts.

∴ Q is the midpoint of AB

2x + 3y = 17<br> 5x + 6y = 32<br><br> Usibg method if elimination
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Solution (-2, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 17      (1)

5x + 6y = 32    (2)

Using elimination method

Multiply (-2) to the equation (1)

-4x - 6y = -34  

Now you have 2 new equations

-4x - 6y = -34

5x + 6y = 32

----------------------------Add

x = -2

Substitute x = -2 into 2x + 3y = 17

2(-2) + 3y = 17

- 4 + 3y = 17

3y = 21

 y = 7

Solution (-2, 7)
