One way in which to do this problem would involve subtracting 5 from 7 (result: 2) and then subtracting 3/5 from 8/9.
To subtract 3/5 from 8/9, you'd need to find the lowest common denominator (LCD) of 3/5 and 8/9, convert both fractions to have this LCD, and then subtract.
The LCD is (5)(9)=45. Then 8/9 and 3/5 become 40/45 and 27/45.
Subtracting 27/45 from 40/45 results in the fraction 13/45.
Then the full solution is 2 13/45.
You could also do this problem by converting 7 8/9 and 5 3/5 into improper fractions:
71/9 - 28/5. Again, the LCD is 45. Can you rewrite both fractions with 45 as the common denominator and then perform the subtraction?
14000+7x=35x (x being the number of books) solve for x and you have your answer. 14000=35x-7x=28x therefore x=14000/28=500 so he needs to sell 500 books before he breaks even.
Answer:

Answer: 120 ft
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The Ellipse equation is:
where
- (h, k) is the center
- "a" is the horizontal radius
- "b" is the vertical radius
- c is the distance from the center to the foci: |a² - b²| = c²
Given: horizontal diameter = 122 → horizontal radius = 61 = a
vertical diameter = 22 → vertical radius = 11 = b
Foci (c): 61² - 11² = c²
3721 - 121 = c²
3600 = c²
±60 = c
Let (h, k) = (0, 0)
Then the foci are located at -60 and +60.
The distance between them is 60 + 60 = 120
