Answer:
11 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
6 1/3 = 19/3
7 1/4 = 29/4
2 1/2 = 5/2
19/3 + 29/4 - 5/2
We must find the LCM of 3, 4, and 2. This happens to be 12
3*4 = 12
4*3 = 12
2*6 = 12
Multiply each fraction by the factor that'll get it to 12.
19/3 * 4/4 = 76/12
29/4 * 3/3 = 87/12
5/2 * 6/6 = 30/12
Now go through the problem
76/12 + 87/12 - 30/12
76 + 87 = 163
163/12 - 30/12
163 - 30 = 133
133/12
Simplify
133/12 = 11.0833... or 11 1/12
Hope this helps.
You could use the equation
+4+(-4)=0 if:
-you earn $4 and spend it
-buying 4 candy bars then eating them
-earning 4 points then losing them
I'll do the first two problems to get you started. All problems shown will use the same formula.
===========================================
Problem 4
The formula to use is
C = 100*(B-A)/A
where
A = old value
B = new value
C = percent change
In this case, A = 12 and B = 36, so
C = 100*(B-A)/A
C = 100*(36-12)/12
C = 100*(24/12)
C = 100*2
C = 200%
We have a 200% increase. It is an increase because the value of C is positive.
===========================================
Problem 5
Use the same formula as in the previous problem. This time,
A = 75 is the old value
B = 25 is the new value
C = 100*(B-A)/A
C = 100*(25-75)/75
C = 100*(-50/75)
C = 100*(-2/3)
C = -66.6667%
C = -66.7%
The value of C is negative, so we have a percent decrease of roughly 66.7%
The correct answer is 3n-1
The formula for volume of a cone is V=(1/3)*h*π*(r^2)
our height is 7.5 feet, and since the length of the base of the cone (diameter) is 22 feet long, the radius is 11 feet long.
(1/3)*7.5*π*(11^2)=302.5*π=950.3
so the volume of the house is about 950 feet cubed.
