There is 4.88% decrease in Olivia's score.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Score on first math test = Old value = 82 points

Score on second math test = New value = 78 points

Change = New value - Old value

Change = 78 - 82 = -4

The negative sign indicates the decrease.

Decrease percent = \frac{Change}{Old\ value}*100

Decrease percent = \frac{4}{82}*100=\frac{400}{82}

Decrease percent = 4.88%

There is 4.88% decrease in Olivia's score.

-1/3 + (-7/4)<br> pls help
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

  -25            

 ——— = -2.08333

    12  

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

           7

Simplify   —

           4

Equation at the end of step  1  :

       1           7

 (0 -  —) +  (0 -  —)

       3           4

Step  2  :

           1

Simplify   —

           3

Equation at the end of step  2  :

       1     -7

 (0 -  —) +  ——

       3     4

Step  3  :

Calculating the Least Common Multiple :

3.1    Find the Least Common Multiple

     The left denominator is :       3

     The right denominator is :       4

       Number of times each prime factor

       appears in the factorization of:

Prime

Factor   Left

Denominator   Right

Denominator   L.C.M = Max

{Left,Right}

3 1 0 1

2 0 2 2

Product of all

Prime Factors  3 4 12

     Least Common Multiple:

     12

Calculating Multipliers :

3.2    Calculate multipliers for the two fractions

   Denote the Least Common Multiple by  L.C.M

   Denote the Left Multiplier by  Left_M

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  Right_M

   Denote the Left Deniminator by  L_Deno

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  R_Deno

  Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 4

  Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 3

Making Equivalent Fractions :

3.3      Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions

Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.

For example :  1/2   and  2/4  are equivalent,  y/(y+1)2   and  (y2+y)/(y+1)3  are equivalent as well.

To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.

  L. Mult. • L. Num.      -1 • 4

  ——————————————————  =   ——————

        L.C.M               12  

  R. Mult. • R. Num.      -7 • 3

  ——————————————————  =   ——————

        L.C.M               12  

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

3.4       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

-1 • 4 + -7 • 3     -25

———————————————  =  ———

      12            12

Final result :

 -25            

 ——— = -2.08333

 12

Rewrite, using the distributive<br> property.<br> 5(2x – 3y) = [?]* - [ ]y
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

10x-15y

Step-by-step explanation:

So, when they say use the distrubutive property, they basically mean turning this:

a(b+c)

Into this:

ab+ac

So in this case, it would be:

5(2x-3y)

And we will turn it into:

10x-15y

ANother way to think about it is we are multiplying 2x by 5, and -3y by 5. So:

2x*5

=

10x

And

-3y*5

=

-15y

Then we can combine these two:

10x-15y

Hope this helps!
