<h3>Answer: the fraction -8/117</h3>

----------------

First, convert to an improper fraction

3 & 1/4 = 3 + (1/4)

3 & 1/4 = (12/4) + (1/4)

3 & 1/4 = 13/4

The mixed number 3&1/4 turns into the improper fraction 13/4

---------------

-2/9 divided by (3&1/4) = -2/9 divided by 13/4

To divide two fractions, you flip the second one and then you multiply

"-2/9 divided by 13/4" turns into "-2/9 times 4/13" after this happens

Then you multiply straight across. The numerators stick together. The denominators stick together.

numerators: -2*4 = -8

denominators: 9*13 = 117

We end up with the fraction -8/117

This cannot be reduced as there are no common factors (other than 1) between 8 and 117.

shusha [124]

Answer:

$478

Step-by-step explanation:

After 20 years, William will have a total of $3,513.94

After 20 years, Nolan will have a total of $3,991.93

Difference = $478

William:

2300[1 + (.02125 ÷ 4)]^4 · 20

2300 · (1 + .0053125)^80

2300(1.5278)

$3,513.94

Nolan:

2300[1 + (.0275 ÷ 12)]^12 · 20

2300 · (1 + .0023)^240

2300(1.7356)

$3,991.93

How do I find the distance between (-2,5) and (22,12)

jok3333 [9.3K]

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{22}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{12})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{[22-(-2)]^2+[12-5]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(22+2)^2+(12-5)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{24^2+7^2}\implies d=\sqrt{625}\implies d=25$
