Since we're adding fractions we'll need to make the denominator the same

5 fits into 15 three times

so we'll need to multiply both the numerator and denominator of -2/5 by 3

-2/5 becomes -6/15

now we can solve

11/15 + -6/15 = 5/15

5/15 can be written as 1/3 in simplified form

Jeremy is having his basketball team over for an end-of-season party. He has $80 to spend on pizza and soda. Pizzas cost $13.99

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

13.99p + 4.49s ≤ 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Pizza is p and soda is s. If he has only $80 to spend on a combination of both, he cannot obviously spend more than that. Therefore, the inequality sign is "less than or equal to". He can spend 80, but he can also spend less than 80. He cannot spend anything over that, since he doesn't have it to spend!

If pizzas are represented by p, and we know the cost of each one is 13.99, we represent one pizza as 13.99p; if the cost of sida is 4.49 per case, we represent one case as 4.49s.

The sum of these cannot exceed 80, so the inequality, then, is:

13.99p + 4.49s ≤ 80

5. On a college campus, the library is 80 yards due east of the dormitory and the recreation center is due north of the

Luda [366]

The length of the new sidewalk between the Dormitory to the recreation center is 143 yards

We need to understand the concept of Bearing and Distance in order to be able to determine how long is the new sidewalk.

<h3>What are Bearing and Distance?</h3>

The Bearing of an angle measures the movement of an angle in a clockwise direction starting from the North Pole. However, the distance shows how the length of the sides of the angle can also be measured.
