On Monday, he ate 1/3 of 18 pounds, so he ate 6 pounds of cookies on Monday.

This leaves 18 - 6 = 12 pounds remaining.

On Tuesday, he ate 5/6 of 12 pounds, so he ate 10 pounds of cookies on Tuesday.

This leaves 12 - 10 = 2 pounds remaining.

So here's the question

Yes, is subtraction, to get their "difference".

first off, let's convert the mixed fractions, to "improper", and then subtract.

\bf \stackrel{red~yarn}{9\frac{1}{5}}-\stackrel{blue~yarn}{3\frac{11}{25}}

\bf -------------------------------\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{9\frac{1}{5}}\implies \cfrac{9\cdot 5+1}{5}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{46}{5}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{11}{25}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 25+11}{25}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{86}{25}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{46}{5}-\cfrac{86}{25}\impliedby \textit{our LCD is 25}\implies \cfrac{(5\cdot 46)~~-~~(1\cdot 86)}{25}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{230~-~86}{25}\implies \cfrac{144}{25}\implies 5\frac{19}{25}

What is the average (arithmetic mean) of the first 90 measurements in a certain list of 92 measurements? (1) the average of the
marishachu [46]
The sum of all the measurements is just the average times the number.

\bar x = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n x_i

\sum_{i=1}^n x_i = n \bar x

So if the average of all 92 is 7 the sum of those is 92 \times 7

The average of the last two is 7.2 so their sum is 2 \times 7.2

That means the sum of the first 90 is 92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2

so the average of the first 90 is

 \dfrac{92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2}{90} = 6.99556 cm

1. The x-intercepts are x = 0 and x = 6. You can find these by looking for where the line crosses the x-axis. You can see here that it does so at 0 and 6.


2. The maximum value for this function is looking for the f(x) value at the highest point. In this case, you will see that f(x) at the highest point is 120. This happens at x = 3. Once again, this can be found just by looking for the highest point on the graph.


3. Since that is the absolute highest point, it is also the point where is goes from increasing to decreasing. As a result, we know the increasing interval is x<120 and the decreasing interval is x > 120.


4. Finally, the average rate of change between 3 and 5 is -30. You can find this by determining the amount of change in f(x) and dividing it by the amount of change in x. The basic formula is below.


\frac{new f(x) - old f(x)}{new x - old x}

\frac{60 - 120}{5 - 3}

\frac{-60}{2}

-30

Can someone help me with this question please! <br> 5-x=12
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 5 from both sides.

−x=12−5

Subtract 5 from 12 to get 7.

−x=7

Multiply both sides by −1.

x=−7
