Answer:

21/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

6 + 1/4 - (3 + 5/8)

Put 3 + 5/8 over the common denominator 8. 3 + 5/8 = (8×3)/8 + 5/8:

6 + 1/4 - (8×3)/8 + 5/8

8×3 = 24:

6 + 1/4 - (24/8 + 5/8)

24/8 + 5/8 = (24 + 5)/8:

6 + 1/4 - (24 + 5)/8

24 + 5 = 29:

6 + 1/4 - 29/8

Put 6 + 1/4 - 29/8 over the common denominator 8. 6 + 1/4 - 29/8 = (8×6)/8 + 2/8 - 29/8:

(8×6)/8 + 2/8 - 29/8

8×6 = 48:

48/8 + 2/8 - 29/8

48/8 + 2/8 - 29/8 = (48 + 2 - 29)/8:

(48 + 2 - 29)/8

sasho [114]
A weekly pay (five-day work week) is $100.
The average tip is $5.
The waiter wants to make at least $450 in a five-day work week. 
So we have to find out how many times the waiter must serve.
So, first we do $450 - $100 since the waiter already makes $100.
$450 - $100 = $350
Then the waiter gets an average of $5 tips.
So, we do $350 / $5.
$350 / $5 = 70
Our answer is 70.
So, the waiter must serve 70 tables to make at least $450.

Hope this helps you! (:

Which expression has a negative value?
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Negative 35 divided by 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

I got this answer by using process of elimination. So let's try it shall we?

2+12

This has to positive numbers in the process of addition so this would be a positive number with the answer of 14.

-3 x -8

This equation has two negatives being multiplied by each other hence cancelling each other out so the answer would be positive.

10 - (-18)

Much like the last equation there are to negatives, but this equation is subtracting by a negative so the negatives next to each other in that way would cancel each other out leaving you with a positive 28.

-35 / 5

Seeing as we have checked every other equation this one must be negative but lets check. When you divide a negative by a positive the positive would automatically take the form of the negative number, because it does not have a negative of its own to cancel the negative out so this must have a negative outcome.

Answer:

The probability that a  randomly selected point within the  circle falls in the red shaded area is p=0.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate the probability that a randomly selected point within the circle falls in the red shaded area.

This probability can be calculated as the quotient between the red shaded area, that is a regular pentagon inscribed in the circle, and the area of the circle.

We start by calculating the area of the circle:

A_c=\pi r^2\approx 3.14(4)^2=3.14\cdot 16=50.24

Then, we can calculate the area of the pentagon as:

A_p=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot (5a)\cdot S=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot (5\cdot3.2)\cdot 4.7=37.6

Then, we can calculate the probability p as the quotient between the areas:

p=\dfrac{A_p}{A_c}=\dfrac{37.6}{50.24}\approx 0.75
