satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Their houses are apart by \frac{39}{4} i.e. 9\frac{3}{4}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

Omari and Daisy lives on the same street as their school.

It is given that,

Omari lives 5\frac{1}{2} = \frac{11}{2} = \frac{22}{4} blocks west of the school.

Dasiy lives 4\frac{1}{4} = \frac{17}{4} blocks east of the school.

Thus, the number of blocks by which their houses are apart = \frac{22}{4} + \frac{17}{4} = \frac{22+17}{4} = \frac{39}{4}

Hence, their houses are apart by \frac{39}{4} i.e. 9\frac{3}{4}.

Harold and Millicent are getting married and need to combine their already-full libraries. If Harold, who has 1/2 as many books
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of books that Millicent has. So the number of books that Harold has is x/2. And the number of book that Harold is bringing to the new home is (x/2)/3 = x/6.

The home has enough room for another half of Millicent's books, which is x/2. So the total books capacity of the new home is

\frac{x}{6} + \frac{x}{2} = \frac{x}{6} + \frac{3x}{6} = \frac{4x}{6} = \frac{2x}{3}

Since x is also the number of books in Millicent's old library capacity, we can conclude that the fraction of Millicent's old library capacity to the new home's library capacity is 2/3, or 2 thirds

If ax-a>2a and x-1<-2
aliina [53]
Ax-a>2
x-1<-1

ok, in the first one, we can undistribute the a

ax-a>2
a(x-1)>2
and we known that x-1<-1, so x-1 is negative
we can assign c for x-1 to do c<-1 then

a(c)>2
ac>2
so if c is negative, then therefor a must also be negve to produce greater than 2
hmm, we see 2 choices that work, B and D

hmm, if c=-1.5
then a has to be 0.75
that is a possible solution so therefor B is false


the answer is D
