2 3/4+1 5/8= deducted amount of apples

improper fraction= 11/4+13/8

same denominator= 2(11/4)+13/8

<span>2(11/4)+13/8=22/8+13/8=35/8=4 3/8</span>

6 1/2- 4 3/8

improper fraction= 13/2-35/8

same denominator= 4(13/2)-35/8

52/8-35/8= 17/8 lbs. There u go!

Lerok [7]

Time taken by Ria to paint a room = 4 hours

Time taken by Destiny to paint a room = 6 hours

If they work together, they complete 1 job. So,

\frac{1x}{4}+\frac{1x}{6}=1

The LCD of 4 and 6 is 12

\frac{3x+2x}{12}=1

\frac{5x}{12}=1

5x=12

x=\frac{12}{5}

Hence, both of them can paint the room in \frac{12}{5} hours or 2.4 hours.

Plz someone help me on this question I rlly need help​
Sauron [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

you simply have to mark the points in which the x and y coordinates are given take for example "1,4" it took him 4 minutes to read 1 page right? the one is marked as X and the 4 is marked as Y so put a point in which the 1 at X and the 4 at Y meet in the coordinates system. Do so with every coordinates and then draw a line in the direction of all the points

Which expression is equivalent to −1/ 12x−1 /3?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

\frac{1}{12} (-x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

the expression we have is:

-\frac{1}{12} x-\frac{1}{3}

To find an equivalent expression, it would be helpful to express 1/3 so that it has a 12 in the denominator:

\frac{1}{3}=\frac{4}{12}

so we substitute this:

-\frac{1}{12} x-\frac{4}{12}

and now we have 1/12 in both terms :

-\frac{1}{12}x-\frac{1*4}{12}

so we can factor it (we take it out of each term: in the first we are left with -x and in the second with -4):

\frac{1}{12} (-x-4)

the equivalent expression is: \frac{1}{12} (-x-4)

Stells [14]
This is a parabola that opens downward.
Remember that the axis of symmetry is located at x=-b/(2a).
So the vertex is at (3,-1)
So functions slope is positive or increasing on (-co, 3] and decreasing on [3,co).
