Hello! I can help you!
22. Okay. What we need to do for this one is subtract fraction.l, because we are looking for how much more the second container holds than the first. We need to covert them to like denominators, which in this case is 8 5 3/4 = 5 6/8. Because 6/8 is less than 7/8, we need to regroup by adding 8 and turning the 5 into a 4. The problem would become like this: 4 14/8 - 1 7/8. When you subtract both numbers, you get 3 7/8. There. The second container holds 3 7/8 more gallons of water than the first.

a. 15 student speeches will last 1 1/2 minutes each. In this case, we just simply multiply the fractions by multiply straight across. Multiply the top numbers together and the bottom numbers together. 1 1/2 is 3/2 a an improper fraction. Make 15 have a denominator of 1. 15/1 * 3/2 is 45/2 or 22 1/2 as a mixed number. It will take 22 1/2 minutes to give the speeches.
b. Okay. The teacher makes a 15 minute intro. Let’s add the time it takes to make the speeches and the teacher’s intro. 22 1/2 + 15 0/2 is 37 1/2. Yes. There is enough time to record everyone.
c. There are 60 minutes in 1 hour. Subtract the total amount taken on the camera from 60. 0/2 is less than 1/2. Again, regroup by adding 2 to make 2/2, and crossing out 60, so it becomes 59. 59 2/2 - 37 1/2 is 22 1/2. There are 22 1/2 minutes left on the digital camera.
Answer:
x=−7/5and y=−6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step: Substitute−2x−4foryiny=3x+3:
y=3x+3
−2x−4=3x+3
−2x−4+−3x=3x+3+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)
−5x−4=3
−5x−4+4=3+4(Add 4 to both sides)
−5x=7
−5x
−5
=
7
−5
(Divide both sides by -5)
x=−7/5
Answer: x = 21°
Step-by-step explanation:
37 + 4x + (3x - 4) = 180° Original Equation
37 + 4x + 3x - 4 = 180° Commutative Property of Addition
7x + 33 = 180° Combine like terms
7x = 148° Subtract 33 from both sides
x = 21° Divide both sides by 7
Answer:
The number of ways are there to paint the four buildings is 48.
Step-by-step explanation:
I) let the first building be any color. Therefore the first building can be painted with any of the 4 colors.
Therefore the first building can be colored in 4 ways.
ii) the second building can be colored in 3 ways since it cannot be colored the
same color as the first building.
iii) the third building can also be colored in 3 ways.
iv) the last building can be colored in 2 ways because it cannot be the same color as the first building or the color of the adjacent building.
Therefore the total number of ways the buildings can be colored = 4 
3 3 2 = 48.
