Answer:

(2 1/3) : (4/5) = 35 /12 = 2 11 /12

1. You convert the mixed number (2 1/3) into an improper fraction which is 7/3.

2.Then you find a new numerator so you multiply the whole number (2) by the denominator (3) which is 6.

3 Add the answer (6) to the starting numerator (1). The new numerator equation: 6+1=7.

4.Write the new numerator (7) over the denominator (3)

Two and one seven third is seven thirds.

5. Then you divide: 7/3 : 4/5 = 7/3 * 5/4 = 7*5/ 3*4

6. Multiply (7 and 5) and (3 and 4) which gives you 35/12.

7.Then you transform it back into a mixed number by dividing 35/12 which gives you 2 11/12.

The sides of a rectangle have length x+ 2 and width x -5. Which equation describes the area, A, of the rectangle in terms of x?

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The area in factored form is $A=(x+2)(x-5)$ .

The area in standard form is $A=x^2-3x-10$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is length times width.

So the area here is (x+2)(x-5).

They are probably not looking for A=(x+2)(x-5) because it requires too little work.

They probably want A in standard form instead of factored form.

Let's use foil:

First x(x)=x^2

Outer: x(-5)=-5x

Inner: 2(x)=2x

Last: 2(-5)=-10

---------------------Adding together: $x^2-3x-10$ .

The area in factored form is $A=(x+2)(x-5)$ .

The area in standard form is $A=x^2-3x-10$ .

Hey there!

This seems like a algebraic expression

SO,
Remember: negative and negative = positive
positive and positive = positive
positive and negative = negative
negative and positive = negative

In this problem we will be doing negative and negative so that means our answer will be a negative

Firstly, lets line up our decimals to solve this problem (once when you do that , you can solve it easier)

$-1.65 
\\ +
\\ (-3.4)
$

Answer: $-5.05$

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day
