Answer:

The Answer is: Josh hit 47 balls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let j = Josh number of hits and c = Caiden number of hits:

j = c/2 + 9

Total:

j + c = 123.

Substitute:

(c/2 + 9) + c = 123

c/2 + c = 123 - 9

c/2 + c = 114

1/2c + 2/2c = 114

3/2c = 144

c = 144 (2/3) = 76, Number of hits for Caiden

Solve for j:

j = 76/2 + 9

j = 38 + 9 = 47, number of hits for Josh

Proof:

j + c = 123

47 + 76 = 123

123 = 123

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!! :-)

-2 1/6+(-2/3) please help me I really need help thanks
Charra [1.4K]

Answer: Your answer is -2 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Just convert the -2/3 to sixths. To do this, you multiply the denominator and numerator by 2 to make it equivalent to -2 1/6's denomenator (6). 2 times -2 is -4 and 3 times -2 is -6. This means -2/3 is equal to -4/6. As a result -2 1/6 - 4/6 is -2 5/6.
