Answer:

p = 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, simply take the words of the problem and convert them into an equation as such:

The difference of p and one-sixth implies --> p - 1/6

is two-thirds implies --> 2/3

So, our equation:

p - 1/6 = 2/3

Now simply solve for p, and combine the fractions.

p - 1/6 = 2/3

p - 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/3 + 1/6

p = 2/3 + 1/6

p = 4/6 + 1/6

p = 5/6

Cheers.

Find the values of the pronumerals in this diagram. Write down the reason in each case.
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a and 85 form a straight angle and are supplementary, thus

a + 85 = 180 ( subtract 85 from both sides )

a = 95

b and 85 are vertical angles and are congruent, thus

b = 85

c and 85 are corresponding angles and congruent, thus

c = 85

c and d are vertical angles and congruent, thus

d = 85

In conclusion

a = 95, b = 85, c = 85, d = 85

Shannon feeds her cat twice a day. In the morning, she feeds her cat one can of cat food. In the evening, she feeds her cat one
saul85 [17]

Each can of cat food holds <u>4 ounces</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We shall assign the ounces of one can as; x

Since the cat is fed  1 can in the morning and 1 and ½ cans in the evening, then the cat eats;

x + ³/2 x ounces per day

This is also equal to 10 ounces

x + ³/2 x = 10

⁵/2 x = 10

x = 10 * ²/5

x = 4

= 4 ounces
