Answer:

3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

d=3t is our formula.

d being the distance (9 inches for this problem)

t is the time in minutes


Substituting our known information would make our equation look like:

9 = 3t

to solve for t we divide both sides of the equation by 3

9/3 = 3t/3

3 = t


So if a snail travels 3 inches per minute, it will have traveled 9 inches in 3 minutes.

Answer:

The values of p in the equation are 0 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to make the denominators the same. to do that, first factor 2p^2-7p-4 = \left(2p+1\right)\left(p-4\right)2p

2

−7p−4=(2p+1)(p−4)

So then the equation looks like:

\frac{p}{2p+1}-\frac{2p^2+5}{(2p+1)(p-4)}=-\frac{5}{p-4}

2p+1

p

−

(2p+1)(p−4)

2p

2

+5

=−

p−4

5

To make the denominators equal, multiply 2p+1 with p-4 and p-4 with 2p+1:

\frac{p^2-4p}{(2p+1)(p-4)}-\frac{2p^2+5}{(2p+1)(p-4)}=-\frac{10p+5}{(p-4)(2p+1)}

(2p+1)(p−4)

p

2

−4p

−

(2p+1)(p−4)

2p

2

+5

=−

(p−4)(2p+1)

10p+5

Since, this has an equal sign we 'get rid of' or 'forget' the denominator and only solve the numerator.

(p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)=-(10p+5)(p

2

−4p)−(2p

2

+5)=−(10p+5)

Now, solve like a normal equation. Solve (p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)(p

2

−4p)−(2p

2

+5) first:

(p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)=-p^2-4p-5(p

2

−4p)−(2p

2

+5)=−p

2

−4p−5

-p^2-4p-5=-10p+5−p

2

−4p−5=−10p+5

Combine like terms:

-p^2-4p+0=-10p−p

2

−4p+0=−10p

-p^2+6p=0−p

2

+6p=0

Factor:

p=0, p=6p

The number 1.125 can be writen using the fraction 1125/1000 which is equal to 9/8 when reduced to lowest terms.

It is also equal to 1 1/8 when writen as a mixed number.

You can use the following approximate value(s) for this number:

1.125 =~ 1 (if you admit a error of -11.111111%)

A mechanic had a bolt with a diameter of 2/9 inch. Will the bolt fit into a hole with a diameter of 0.2 inch.
Naddik [55]

Answer:

No, the bolt won't fit into the hole

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to convert the diameter of the bolt into decimal by dividing:

2/9 = 0.222...

The hole has diameter of 0.2

<em>Hence, 0.222 is larger than 0.2, so the bolt won't fit.</em>
