Answer:

4\frac{5}{8}\div \:\:2\frac{3}{4}=\frac{37}{22}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4\frac{5}{8}\div \:2\frac{3}{4}

\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 4\frac{5}{8}=\frac{37}{8}

=\frac{37}{8}\div \:2\frac{3}{4}

\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 2\frac{3}{4}=\frac{11}{4}

=\frac{37}{8}\div \frac{11}{4}

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a}{b}\div \frac{c}{d}=\frac{a}{b}\times \frac{d}{c}

=\frac{37}{8}\times \frac{4}{11}

\mathrm{Cross-cancel\:common\:factor:}\:4

=\frac{37}{2}\times \frac{1}{11}

\mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}:\quad \frac{a}{b}\times \frac{c}{d}=\frac{a\:\times \:c}{b\:\times \:d}

=\frac{37\times \:1}{2\times \:11}

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:37\times \:1=37

=\frac{37}{2\times \:11}

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\times \:11=22

=\frac{37}{22}        

Therefore,

4\frac{5}{8}\div \:\:2\frac{3}{4}=\frac{37}{22}

If f(x) = 5x, what is f–1(x)?
Verdich [7]
We are given f(x) = 5x
and we are to find inverse of f(x).

Step 1:
Replace f(x) by y.
So,

y = 5x

Step 2:
Isolate x
So,

x = y/5

Step 3:
Replace x by f'(y)
So,

f'(y) = y/5

Step 4:
Replace all occurrences of y by x.
So,

f'(x) = x/5

Therefore, the inverse of f(x) = 5x is f'(x) = x/5

How can I show money as a fraction?
abruzzese [7]
You can show money as a fraction by taking the amount of cents, and putting it over 100.

Ex. $1.47 = 147 cents
147 cents = 147/100 in fraction form.

I need help with elimination with substitution. The equations are 3x+4y=19 and 3x+6y=33
olganol [36]
For elimination, multiply one whole equation by negative one (-1), then add or subtract according to your signs. After that, it will be a one-step equation.

3x + 4y = 19          3x + 4y = 19             3x + 4y = 19          -2y = -14        y = 7
3x + 6y = 33     -1 (3x + 6y = 33)          -3x - 6y = -33          -14 / -2

Then you would go back and substitute the value of (y) back into either equation and then solve for the remaining variable (x). Finally, use both values to make an ordered pair.

3x + 4y = 19          3x = -9          x = -3          (-3 , 7)
3x + 4(7) = 19       (-9 / 3)
3x + 28 = 19          

Good Luck
