What is A and B if A+B is 7/12 and A-B is 5/12?

1 answer:

7 0

A would be 6/12 (1/2) and B would be 1/12. To make this easier to understand, think of it this way. 6+1=7, and 6-1=5. In the future, find what adds to 7 and begin plugging in numbers until you get the correct answer.

The battery on McKenzies old computer can last 4(1/5) hours. She bought a new computer that has a battery that can last 40% long

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

$5\frac{22}{25}\ hours$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$4\frac{1}{5}\ hours=\frac{4*5+1}{5}=\frac{21}{5}\ hours$

$100\%+40\%=140\%=\frac{140}{100}$

Let

x ------> new battery life

The equation that represent this situation is

$x=\frac{140}{100} (\frac{21}{5})=\frac{2,940}{500}\ hours$

convert to mixed number

$\frac{2,940}{500}=\frac{2,500}{500}+\frac{440}{500}=5\frac{22}{25}\ hours$

What is the sum of series is numbers 64&66 ?<br> Using the summation notation

iragen [17]

Answer:

64. 6138

66. 8.078125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take it one number at a time.

For number 64:

$6(2)^{1-1}=6$

$6(2)^{2-1}=12$

$6(2)^{3-1}=24$

$6(2)^{4-1}=48$

$6(2)^{5-1}=96$

$6(2)^{6-1}=192$

$6(2)^{7-1}=384$

$6(2)^{8-1}=768$

$6(2)^{9-1}=1536$

$6(2)^{10-1}=3072$

Sum = 6 + 12 + 24 + 48 + 96 + 192 + 384 + 768 + 1536 + 3072

Sum = 6138

For number 66:

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{0}=12$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{1}=-6$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{2}=3$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{3}=-1.5$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{4}=0.75$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{5}=-0.375$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{6}=0.1875$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{7}=-0.0078125$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{8}=0.046875$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{9}=-0.0234375$

Sum = 12 + -6 + 3 + -1.5 + 0.75 + -0.375 + 0.1875 + -0.0078125 + 0.046875 + -0.0234375

or to make things simpler:

Sum = 12 - 6 + 3 - 1.5 + 0.75 - 0.375 + 0.1875 - 0.0078125 + 0.046875 - 0.0234375

Sum = 8.078125

Justin lives 3 2 5 miles from his grandfather's house. Enter the mixed number as a fraction greater than one. 3 2 5 =

elena-s [515]

Answer: $\dfrac{17}{5}$ miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We can express a mixed fraction as an improper fraction.

The process is as follows:

$a\dfrac{b}{c}=\dfrac{ac+b}{c}$

The given mixed number = $3\dfrac25$ miles

This can be represented as

$3\dfrac25=\dfrac{3\times5+2}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{15+2}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{15+2}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{17}{5}>1$

Hence, the required fraction= $\dfrac{17}{5}$ miles
