For this case we convert the mixed numbers into fractions:

7 \frac {5} {6} = \frac {6 * 7 + 5} {6} = \frac {42 + 5} {6} = \frac {47} {6}\\3 \frac {1} {12} = \frac {12 * 3 + 1} {12} = \frac {36 + 1} {12} = \frac {37} {12}

Rewriting the expression:

\frac {47} {6} - \frac {37} {12} =\\\frac {12 * 47-6 * 37} {6 * 12} =\\\frac {564-222} {72} =\\\frac {342} {72} =

We simplify:

\frac {171} {36} =\\\frac {57} {12} =\\\frac {19} {4}

Thus, the simplified form is:\frac {19} {4}

Answer:

\frac {19} {4}

The three angles of a triangle measure x+37, 90, and x+67. Find the measurement of the smallest angle in degrees.
vichka [17]

Answer:

The first angle is the smallest

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

Angle 1= x+37

Angle 2= 90

angle 3= x+67

We know that the sum of angle in a triangle is 180

so

x+3+90+x+67= 180

collect like terms

2x+160= 180

2x=180-160

2x= 20

divide both sides by 2

x= 10

Step two:

so

Angle 1= 10+37= 47 °

Angle 2= 90= 90

angle 3= 10+67= 77 °

Tina has two rectangular playpens to keep her new pet dogs. The first rectangle has a width of 6 feet and a length of x - 4 feet
denpristay [2]

Answer:

4x+24 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of first rectangular playpen mentioned: 2(6+x-4), which can be simplified to 2(x+2) = 2x + 4.

Perimeter of second playpen mentioned: 2(8+x+2), which can be simplified to 2(x+10) = 2x+20.

Add these two together: 2x+4 + 2x+20 = 4x+24. Don't forget to add units: 4x+24 ft.
