Julian walked 6/10 of a mile to his friends house and another 35/100 mile to the store. He walked 1/4 of a mile back home. Julia

AveGali [126]

The statement, "Julian's sister said he walked 1/5 mile" cannot be agreed because Julian totally walked $1\frac{1}{5} \text{ or } \frac{6}{5}$ miles.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that,

Julian walked 6/10 of a mile to his friends house
Another 35/100 mile to the store
He walked 1/4 of a mile back home

To find total distance walked by Julian we have to add the above stated values. That is, $\frac{6}{10} +\frac{35}{100} +\frac{1}{4}$

Factors of 10 = $5\times2$

Factors of 100 = $5\times2\times5\times2$

Factors of 4 = $2\times2$

Therefore, the least common factor of 10, 100 and 4 is 100. With like denominators we can operate on just the numerators,

$\frac{6\times10}{10\times10} +\frac{35\times1}{100\times1} +\frac{1\times25}{4\times1}\rightarrow\frac{60+35+25}{100}\rightarrow\frac{120}{100}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{120}{100}\rightarrow\frac{6}{5}$

Which can also be written as $1\frac{1}{5}$ .

So, from the above calculation it can be said that Julian walked $1\frac{1}{5} \text{ miles }$ .

The quotient of a number and negative eight is five-eighths. Find the number.

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

-64/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, the word "quotient" means the answer to a division problem. Therefore, its a division problem, so you have to work backwards with multiplication. -8 times a number is 5/8, so the other number is going to be negative.

The number is -64/5

Can someone help me with this please

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: y=-2x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

$m=\frac{6-2}{0-2}=\frac{4}{-2}=-2$

So $y=2x+b$ . We can substitute (0, 6) to get:

6 = 2(0)+b

b=6.

Meaning y=-2x+6.
