Answer:

\frac{31}{63}

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Find the LCM of 7 and 9: 63
  2. Find how much we increased each number to get to 63: we increased 7 by 9, and we increased 9 by 7
  3. Multiply the numerators by the corresponding increase numbers: 5 × 9 = 45, and 2 × 7 = 14
  4. Put the new numerators over the new denominators, so it looks like this: \frac{45}{63} and \frac{14}{63}
  5. Finally, subtract one from the other and here's what you get: \frac{31}{63}

Therefore, the answer is \frac{31}{63}.

Answer:

\large \boxed{31/63}

Step-by-step explanation:

5/7 - 2/9

Make denominators equal by LCM.

(5 × 9)/(7 × 9) - (2 × 7)/(9 × 7)

45/63 - 14/63

Subtract fractions since denominators are equal.

(45 - 14)/63

31/63

Andrea has a savings account with $80 that earns 2% interest per
lianna [129]

Answer:

After 10 years, she will has $96 in her bank.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Andrea's saving account is $80 and earns 2% interest per year as a <em>S</em><em>i</em><em>m</em><em>p</em><em>l</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>I</em><em>n</em><em>t</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em>e</em><em>s</em><em>t</em><em> </em>(Not Compounded). Using simple interest formula, Interest = (P×R×T)/100 where <em>P</em> is the <em>principal</em>, <em>R</em> is the <em>interest rate</em> and <em>T</em> is <em>number of years</em><em> </em>:

I =  \frac{p \times r \times t}{100}

P = $80

R = 2%

T = 10 years

I =  \frac{80 \times 2 \times 10}{100}

I =  \frac{1600}{100}

I = 16

It is given that the interest amount is $16. So the total amount she has after 10 years in the bank is $96 :

interest amount = $16

principal = $80

total = $16 + $80

= $96

Find the value of x!!
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

These two angles make a complementary angle meaning the sum of the angles will be 90°. We can use this information to make an equation to solve for x.

10x + 30 = 90 (Given)

10x = 60 (Subtract 30 on both sides)

x = 6 (Divide 10 on both sides)

Solve by factoring: 2x2 - 5x - 12 = 0
Zepler [3.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

2 {x}^{2}  - 5x - 12

2 {x}^{2}   - 8x  + 3x - 12

2x(x - 4) + 3(x - 4)

2x  + 3 = 0 \:  \: x - 4 = 0

x =  \frac{ - 3}{2}  \:  \: x =4
