Question

How do you subtract 4/5 from 0.3?

Answer:

<h2>-0.5 or -1/2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

0.3 = 3/10 <em>( 3 : 10 = 0.3)</em>

3/10 - 4/5 = -0.5

or

0.3 - 0.8 = -0.5 <em>(4/5 = 0.8)</em>

0.5 = 1/2

so your answer is -0.5 or -1/2

Answer:

0.3 - 4/5 = -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4/5 from 0.3

to subtract 4/5 from 0.3, we have to convert 4/5 to decimal fraction

i.e 4/5=0.8

Quadrilateral ABCD is a rectangle. If AG = -7j + 7 and DG = 5j + 43, find BD
Kaylis [27]

<em>BD</em> = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: In rectangle, the diagonals are congruent and bisect each other.

So, <em>AC</em> = <em>BD</em>

⇒<em>AG</em> + <em>GC</em> = <em>BG</em> + <em>GD</em>

⇒<em>AG</em> + <em>AG</em> = <em>GD</em> + <em>GD</em>

⇒ 2<em>AG</em> = 2<em>GD</em>

⇒<em>AG</em> = <em>GD</em>

⇒ –7<em>j </em>+ 7 = 5<em>j</em> + 43

⇒–7<em>j</em> – 5<em>j</em> = 43 – 7

⇒–12<em>j</em> = 36

⇒<em>j</em> = –3

Step 2: <em>BD</em> = 2<em>DG</em>

<em>BD</em> = 2(5<em>j</em> + 43)

     = 2(5 (–3) + 43)

     = 2(–15 + 43)

     = 2 × 28

     = 56

Hence, <em>BD</em> = 56.

Kate sold 12 of her paintings and purchased 7 more. if kate has 21 paintings now, how many paintings did she have to begin with?
kicyunya [14]
First, let x or any variable represent the number of paintings Kate initially has. After selling 12 of it, her paintings now becomes only x - 12. Then, she purchased 7 more making the number of her paintings become x - 12 + 7 = x - 5. This number tantamount to 21. 

                                           x - 5 = 21      ; x = 26

Thus, Kate initially had 26 paintings.

<u>Solution-</u>

A study indicated that the citizens of Morris-town wasted 5840 gallons of water last year.

This year they wasted 15% more than that amount they wasted previous year.

15% of 5840 is,

5840\times \frac{15}{100}=876

The total amount of water wasted this year =

The amount of water wasted previous year + 15% more of the amount of that

= 5840 + 876

= 6716 gallons

Therefore, the total amount of water wasted this year is 6716 gallons
