Answer:

Max's paper airplane flew \frac{77}{12} feet or 6\frac{5}{12} feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

As Nora's paper airplane flew 9 1/6 feet

i.e.

9\frac{1}{6}=\frac{55}{6}

Nora's paper was farther than Max's plane flew by = 2 3/4 feet

i.e.

2\frac{3}{4}=\frac{11}{4}

Thus the equation to show how far Max's paper airplane flew is:

\:\:9\frac{1}{6}-2\frac{3}{4}

=\frac{55}{6}-\frac{11}{4}

\mathrm{Least\:Common\:Multiplier\:of\:}6,\:4:\quad 12

\mathrm{Adjust\:Fractions\:based\:on\:the\:LCM}

=\frac{110}{12}-\frac{33}{12}

\mathrm{Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions}:\quad \frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c}

=\frac{110-33}{12}

\mathrm{Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:110-33=77

=\frac{77}{12}

=6\frac{5}{12}

Therefore, Max's paper airplane flew \frac{77}{12} feet or 6\frac{5}{12} feet.

What is the value of y if f||n<br> ?????
Elenna [48]

Answer:

y = 148°

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 18 = 2x + 12 (alternate exterior angles are congruent)

Collect like terms

4x - 18 = 2x + 12

4x - 2x = 18 + 12

2x = 20

Divide both sides by 2

x = 10

y = 180 - (2x + 12) (linear pair theorem)

Plug in the value of x

y = 180 - (2(10) + 12)

y = 180 - (20 + 12)

y = 148°

horsena [70]

The results of the arithmetic evaluations as given in the task content are; 40,42 and 62.

<h3>What are the results of the arithmetic evaluations?</h3>

The arithmetic operations above can be evaluated and simplified as follows;

(11-8)x3+7+27-3 = (3×3)+7+27-3 = 40.

(18÷3)+6+(14-8)x5 = (6)+6+(6)x5 = 42.

(11-7)x6+4+32-4 = (5×6) +4 +32-4 = 62.
