It is given Melissa walks $\frac{9}{12}$ miles in one day

She walks the same number of miles for 5 days.The question is asking us to find the total number of miles walked by Melissa in 5 days.

She walks the same number of miles for 5 days.

Number of miles walked in 5 days will be = $\frac{9}{12} (5)$

= $\frac{45}{12}. = 3.75 miles.$

Melissa walks 3.75 miles in 5 days.

I'm assuming you mean 9/12ths of a mile every day for 5 days?

Find the slope of the line -4 -1/4 1/4 4

viva [34]

Find 2 "easy" points on the graph, and identify their coordinates. One such point would be (-4,1) and another would be (4,2).

run = 8 (from -4 to +4)
rise = 2 (from 0 to 2)

rise 2
slope = ------- = -------- = 1/4 y-intercept is (0,1)
run 8

equation of this line is thus y = mx + b, or y = (1/4)x + 1 (answer)

Which are the solutions of x2 = –11x + 4?

Zarrin [17]

For this case we have the following polynomial:

$x ^ 2 = -11x + 4$

Rewriting the polynomial we have:

$x ^ 2 + 11x - 4 = 0$

From here, we can solve the polynomial using the quadratic equation

We have then:

$x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x=\frac{-11+/-\sqrt{11^2-4(1)(-4)}}{2(1)}$

$x=\frac{-11+/-\sqrt{11^2+16}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-11+/-\sqrt{121+16}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-11+/-\sqrt{137}}{2}$

Therefore, the solutions are:

$x=\frac{-11+\sqrt{137}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-11-\sqrt{137}}{2}$

La maestra del quinto grado, que tiene 27 estudiantes, desea hacerles un regalo por el "Día del niño". Si adquirió una caja de b

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: Yes, it will be enough.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will answer this in English:

We have 27 students and 81 units, we want to give 3 units to each student.

This is only possible if the quotient betwen 81 and 3 must be bigger than 27.

Lets do it:

81/3 = 27

So we have exactly enough for the 27 students.

Simplify 5 2 thirds

erica [24]

Answer= 2/3
5 2/3= multiply 5x3=15, then 5x2=10 which makes the fraction: 10/15, simplify by finding the highest common denominator that divides 10 & 15 equally, which would be 5,
5 divided into 10 is 2. 5 devided into 15 is 3 which makes your answer, 2/3.
not 100%, but it makes sense to me...
