HELP ASAP ITS SO HARD! Kelsey did the following division problem. Her teacher says that the quotient she found is wrong. −2 5/6

÷ 1 1/3 −17/6 ÷ 4/3 −6/17• 3/4 −6×3 divided by 17×4 −18/68 −9/34 A. Identify what Kelsey did wrong in her calculations. B. Find the correct quotient, showing all of your calculations.

Part A

Her steps were

-2 \frac{5}{6} \div 1 \frac{1}{3}\\\\-\frac{17}{6} \div \frac{4}{3}\\\\-\frac{6}{17} \times \frac{3}{4}\\\\-\frac{6\times 3}{17\times4}\\\\-\frac{18}{68}\\\\-\frac{9}{34}\\\\

Kelsey made a mistake on line 3. Note how the 17/6 flips to 6/17. This is not correct. You keep the first fraction the same, but you do flip the second fraction. This only applies when you divide two fractions.

The third step should look like -\frac{17}{6}\times \frac{3}{4}

=======================================================

Part B

Here's what she should have written

-2 \frac{5}{6} \div 1 \frac{1}{3}\\\\-\frac{17}{6} \div \frac{4}{3}\\\\-\frac{17}{6} \times \frac{3}{4}\\\\-\frac{17\times 3}{6\times 4}\\\\-\frac{51}{24}\\\\-\frac{17}{8}\\\\

If you want to convert that improper fraction to a mixed number, then you could do something like this

-\frac{17}{8} = -\frac{16+1}{8}\\\\-\frac{17}{8} = -\frac{16}{8}-\frac{1}{8}\\\\-\frac{17}{8} = -2 \frac{1}{8}\\\\

Or you could divide 17 over 8 using long division to get 2 remainder 1. The 2 is the quotient that goes to the left of the 1/8. The remainder of 1 is the numerator of 1/8.

If you have 720 pt/h how many qt/min is it
Maurinko [17]
So,

720 pt./hr.

2 pt. = 1 qt.

720/2 = 360

360 qt./hr.

Now, since there are 60 mins. in 1 hr., multiply the number by 60.

360(60) = 21600

720 pt./hr. = 21,600 qt./min.

the area of a parallelogram is 36x^6y^5. if the base of the parallelogram is 3xy^2,what is the height of the parallelogram ​asap
trapecia [35]

Answer:

h = 12x^5y^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is found using A = b*h. Substitute the values given and solve for h.

A = b*h

36x^6 y^5 = 3xy^2 * h

36x^6 y^5 ÷ 3xy^2 = h

12x^5y^3 = h

If angle 4 is 52.7, what are the measures of angles 1,2, and 3? ​
shusha [124]

Answer:

  1. 127.3
  2. 52.7
  3. 127.3
  4. 52.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know the angle measure of angle 4, we already know that angle 2 will have the same measure according to do the vertical angle theorem. Now to find angles 1 and 3, we can make an equation and solve for x (supplementary angles).

52.7 + x = 180

x = 127.3

Best of Luck!
