Upper Tolerance

Remark

The 11/16 is the only thing that will be affected. The three won't go up or down when we add 1/64 so we should just work with the 11/16. We need only add 11/16 and 1/64 together to see what the upper range is. Later on we can add 3 into the mix.

Solution

<u>Upper Limit</u>

\dfrac{11}{16} +  \dfrac{1}{64}

Now change the 11/16 into 64. Multiply numerator and denominator or 11/16 by 4

\dfrac{11*4}{16*4} +  \dfrac{1}{64}

\dfrac{11*4}{16*4} +  \dfrac{1}{64} Which results in

\dfrac{44}{64} +  \dfrac{1}{64}

With a final result for the fractions of 45/64

So the upper tolerance = 3 45/64

<u>Lower Tolerance</u>

Just follow the same steps as you did for the upper tolerance except you subtract 1/64 like this.

\dfrac{11}{16} - \dfrac{1}{64}

Your answer should be 3 and 43/64

Isaac shoveled 9 of his neighbors' driveways after a snow storm. He charged $25 for a short driveway and $45 for a long driveway
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

y($) =  405- 20x

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of short driveways = x

Number of long driveways = 9-x

Fee per long driveway = $45

Fee per short driveway= $25

Total amount = y

y ($) =  25x + 45 (9-x)

      =  25x  + 405 -45x

      = 405- 20x

How many oz of walnuts which cost $6/oz must be added to 2 oz of peanuts which cost $12/oz to make mixed nuts which cost $8/oz
Burka [1]

Answer:  4 oz

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Create a table.  Multiply across and add down (the middle column cannot be added).  The Mixture line creates the equation that must be solved.

Let x represent the unknown quantity of walnuts.

\begin{array}{c|c|c||c}&\underline{Quantity}&\underline{Cost}&\underline{Qty \times Cost}\\Walnuts&x&6&6x\\\underline{Peanuts}&\underline{\qquad 2\qquad}&\underline{\qquad 12\qquad}&\underline{\qquad 24\qquad }\\Mixture&x+2&8&6x+24\end{array}

.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad (x+2)(8) = 6x+24\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad 8x + 16 = 6x + 24\longrightarrow \text{distributed}\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad2x+16=24\qquad \longrightarrow \text{subtracted 6x}\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad 2x=8\qquad \qquad \ \longrightarrow \text{subtracted 16}\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad x=4\qquad \qquad \quad \longrightarrow \text{divided by 2}

Shane has 1/2 pound of cheese to make 4 sandwiches. He wants to use the same amount of cheese in each sandwich. What fraction of
anastassius [24]

Answer:

The fraction of one pound of cheese to be used in each sandwich is 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have a question that requires the method of dealing with the division of fractions.

To divide a fraction by a whole number, we multiply the denominator of the fraction by the whole number as follows;

\frac{x}{y} \div z =\frac{x}{y\times z}

Quantity of cheese Shane has = 1/2 pound

Number of sandwiches to be made = 4

Amount of cheese per sandwich = 1/2÷4 = 1/8.
