Answer: -17.5

Step-by-step explanation:Use this rule:

1. -a-b=-(a+b)−a−b=−(a+b).

-(12.5+4.8)−(12.5+4.8)

2.Use the algorithm method.

1 2 . 5

+ 4 . 8

1 7 . 3

3.After simplification, we have:

-(12.5+4.8)=-17.3−(12.5+4.8)=−17.3

4. Therefore, -12.5-4.8=-17.3−12.5−4.8=−17.3.

-17.3−17.3

enyata [817]

y = 50x/(x+33)
x≠-33
xy + 33y = 50x
33y = x(50-y)
33y/(50-y)= x

or y≠50

=> yϵ R - {50}

Students found that a box with sides 4cm, 4cm, and 5 cm held 192 Skittles.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Volume is 80 cc

Ratio is 23 skittles per 20 cubic centimeter

Volume of a skittle is .416 cubic centimeters per skittle

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = l*w*h = 4*4*5 = 80 cubic centimeters

192 skittles / 80 cubic centimeters is the ratio. You have to simplify it though.

192/80=46/40 23 skittles per 20 cubic centimeters

The volume of a skittle is 80 cubic centimeters/192 skittles = .416 cm^3/skittle
