Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
One way in which to do this problem would involve subtracting 5 from 7 (result: 2) and then subtracting 3/5 from 8/9.
To subtract 3/5 from 8/9, you'd need to find the lowest common denominator (LCD) of 3/5 and 8/9, convert both fractions to have this LCD, and then subtract.
The LCD is (5)(9)=45. Then 8/9 and 3/5 become 40/45 and 27/45.
Subtracting 27/45 from 40/45 results in the fraction 13/45.
Then the full solution is 2 13/45.
You could also do this problem by converting 7 8/9 and 5 3/5 into improper fractions:
71/9 - 28/5. Again, the LCD is 45. Can you rewrite both fractions with 45 as the common denominator and then perform the subtraction?
Given:
Joining fee = $28
Fee of each event = $4
To find:
Total cost for someone to attend 4 events.
Solution:
Let the number of events be x and total fee be y.
Fee for 1 event = $4
Fee for x events = $4x
Joining fee remains constant. So, the total fee is
Substitute x=4 in this equation.
Therefore, total cost of 4 events is $44.
Angles of a triangle = 180 degrees
T + C = 110 degrees, and T=C (according to the definition of an isosceles triangle).
measure of T is 110/2 which equals 55 degrees
