What is the difference of 5/6 - 5/12? Use the fraction strip to help

Mathematics
1 answer:
RUDIKE [14]3 years ago
5 0

First, use the LCM of the denominators (6 and 12) to change the fractions so that they have the same denominator.

LCM of 6 and 12: 12, because 6 x 2 = 12 and 12 x 1 = 12.

5/6 becomes 10/12, because you multiply the top and bottom by 2.

5/12 doesn't change because the denominator is the same.

So now when you subtract, 10/12 - 5/12 is basically 10 - 5/12, which is 5/12

Function Notation - Function Machines
stepan [7]

The function notation of the following are:

f(1) = 5

f(0) = 1

f(-3) = -11

f(8) = 33

Given:

x is the input.

the function is 4x+1

f(x) is the output.

we are asked to determine the values of the following :

a. f(1)

x = 1

so f(x) = 4x+1

f(1) = 4(1)+1

f(1) = 4+1

f(1)=5

b. f(0)

x = 0

so f(x) = 4x+1

f(0) = 4(0)+1

f(0) = 0+1

f(0)=1

c. f(-3)

x = -3

so f(x) = 4x+1

f(-3) = 4(-3)+1

f(1) = -12+1

f(1)= -11

d. f(8)

x = 8

so f(x) = 4x+1

f(8) = 4(8)+1

f(8) = 32+1

f(1)=33

Hence we get the required values.

Answer:

3 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the amount of pure acid (100% solution) in gallons

Remember that

100\%=100/100=1

20\%=20/100=0.20

60\%=60/100=0.60

we know that

(1)(x)+(0.20)(3)=(0.60)(x+3)

solve for x

x+0.60=0.60x+1.80

x-0.60x=1.80-0.60\\0.40x=1.20\\x=3\ gal

therefore

3 gallons of pure acid should be mixed with 3 gallons of a 20% acid solution in  order to get a 60% acid solution

Can someone help me solve y 12 + y = 4x
Leviafan [203]

Answer: Y = 4x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the reason for this is because y can be anything because there are 2 unknown terms in the equation. Thus, the answer to y can be many different answers. The one common thing that all of these answers have is that they have only 1 expression (An equation without equal sign) to solve it. This expression is the answer to y, but it can be changed judging by the answer of x. That is why you cannot determine an exact answer to y with there being many, so you have to write the expression to get y. Which you can find out by:

12 (Part) + y (Part) = 4x (Whole)

So to figure out one part do the whole minus the other part which is why 4x is our answer:

4x (Whole) - 12 (Other Part)

This is called part-whole postulate.

Hope this helps!
