Answer:

  290.6 backpacks per year

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of 5 numbers is 1/5 of their sum:

  average = (278 +310 +320 +242 +303)/5 = 290.6

The average number of backpacks given out in the last 5 years is 290.6, about 291.

-1/3 + (-7/4)<br> pls help
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

  -25            

 ——— = -2.08333

    12  

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

           7

Simplify   —

           4

Equation at the end of step  1  :

       1           7

 (0 -  —) +  (0 -  —)

       3           4

Step  2  :

           1

Simplify   —

           3

Equation at the end of step  2  :

       1     -7

 (0 -  —) +  ——

       3     4

Step  3  :

Calculating the Least Common Multiple :

3.1    Find the Least Common Multiple

     The left denominator is :       3

     The right denominator is :       4

       Number of times each prime factor

       appears in the factorization of:

Prime

Factor   Left

Denominator   Right

Denominator   L.C.M = Max

{Left,Right}

3 1 0 1

2 0 2 2

Product of all

Prime Factors  3 4 12

     Least Common Multiple:

     12

Calculating Multipliers :

3.2    Calculate multipliers for the two fractions

   Denote the Least Common Multiple by  L.C.M

   Denote the Left Multiplier by  Left_M

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  Right_M

   Denote the Left Deniminator by  L_Deno

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  R_Deno

  Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 4

  Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 3

Making Equivalent Fractions :

3.3      Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions

Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.

For example :  1/2   and  2/4  are equivalent,  y/(y+1)2   and  (y2+y)/(y+1)3  are equivalent as well.

To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.

  L. Mult. • L. Num.      -1 • 4

  ——————————————————  =   ——————

        L.C.M               12  

  R. Mult. • R. Num.      -7 • 3

  ——————————————————  =   ——————

        L.C.M               12  

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

3.4       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

-1 • 4 + -7 • 3     -25

———————————————  =  ———

      12            12

Final result :

 -25            

 ——— = -2.08333

 12

In parallelogram HIJK, the measure of angle H is 45 degrees. 1.Find the measure of J and explain how you know
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

45°

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a polygon with 4 sides and 4 angles (that is a quadrilateral).

For a parallelogram ABCD, Opposite sides and opposite angles are equal (i.e. BC = AD and ∠A = ∠C).

Consecutive angles are supplementary that is ∠A + ∠B = 180°.

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other also separating the parallelogram into two congruent triangles.

In parallelogram HIJK, ∠H and ∠J are opposite angles. hence:

∠H = ∠J (opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal)

∠J = 45°

3y-6 divided by 9 = 4-2 divided by -3
sweet [91]

Answer:

y = 16/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming "y" is a variable

3y - 6/9 = 4 - 2/-3

3y - 2/3 =14/3

3y - 16/3 = 0

1/3 (9y - 2) = 14/3

ANSWER = y : 16/9
