Answer:

The position of Michael's hands relative to the surface of the water is -<u>1.3 meters</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question is incomplete, so below is the complete question?</em></u>

<em>Michael is doing an underwater handstand. His feet are sticking up 0.5 meters above the surface of the water. Michael's hands are 1.8 meters directly below his feet. What is the position of Michael's hands relative to the surface of the water?</em>

Now, to find the position of Michael's hands relative to the surface of the water.

Meters of Michael's hands directly below his feet = 1.8 meters.

Meters of his feet sticking above the surface of the water = 0.5 meters.

So, to get the position of Michael's hands relative to the surface of the water we subtract meters of Michael's hands directly below his feet from meters of his feet sticking above the surface of the water:

$0.5\ meters\ -\ 1.8\ meters\\\\=-1.3\ meters.$

Therefore, the position of Michael's hands relative to the surface of the water is -1.3 meters.

At the movie theatre, child admission is S5.20 and adult admission is $8.30. On Tuesday, 156 tickets were sold for a total sales

Annette [7]

Answer:

So, 89 Adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we first name our variables, say, a for number of adult tickets, and c for child tickets.

Then we write our system of equations, first the total $ sale:

5.2c + 8.3a = 1087.10

Then we write the 2nd equation, the total number of tickets:

c + a = 156

Now, we can solve the system:

We do have different methods, let's to by subsitution.

make some change to the 2nd equation, to make c the subject: c = 156 - a

Now we plug that into the 1st equation:

5.2(156 - a) + 8.3a = 1087.10

811.2 - 5.2a + 8.3a = 1087.10

811.2 + 3.1a = 1087.10

3.1a = 275.9

a = 89

What is 1 6/8 as a fraction.how did u figure it out

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

1 6/8 is a mixed number. To turn it into a fraction which is called an improper fraction you have to multiply the denominator by the whole number which is 1, then add the numerator which is 6. Your answer should be 14/8 or simplified to be 7/4.

Step-by-step explanation: Step 1: Multiply the denominator and the whole number. In this case it's 1 and 8. 1x8.

Step 2: Once you get the answer to 1x8 which is 8, you add the numerator to the product. 8+6=14.

Step 3: Since we now know the answer is 14/8 we need to simplify it. We find the greatest common factor between numerator and denominator which is 2. Then divide both 14 and 8 by 2.

Step 4: 1 6/8 as a fraction is 14/8 which simplifies to 7/4.

Hope this helped.
