16/7 - 1/14 subtracting fractions

Mathematics

1 answer:

Makovka662 [10]3 years ago

4 0

Answer:

31/14

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to get common denominators, so we multiply the 16 and the 7 by 2, to get 32/12. Now we can subtract since the fractions have common denominators. After subtracting we get 31/14 or 2 3/14. Hope this helps!

-2(x+1)+6x<-14<br>I need help

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

x<-3

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x+1)+6x<-14

Distribute

-2x-2 + 6x < -14

Combine like terms

4x -2 < -14

Add 2 to each side

4x-2+2 < -14+2

4x < -12

Divide by 4

4x/4 < -12/4

When numbers are very small or very large, it is convenient to either express the value in scientific notation and/or by using a

finlep [7]

$\boxed{ \ 5.0 \times 10^{-3} \ grams \rightarrow 5.0 \ milligrams \ }$

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Scientific notation represents the precise way scientists handle exceptionally abundant digits or extremely inadequate numbers in the product of a decimal form of number and powers of ten.

Put differently, such numbers can be rewritten as a simple number multiplied by 10 raised to a certain exponent or power. It is a system for expressing extremely broad or exceedingly narrow digits compactly.

Scientific notation should be in the form of

$\boxed{ \ a \times 10^n \ }$

where

$\boxed{ \ 1 \leq a \ < 10 \ }$

The number "a" is called "mantissa" and the exponent "n" the order of magnitude.

The exponent tells about the size of the number.

A positive exponent indicates a number greater than or equal to 1.
A negative exponent indicates a number between 0 and 1.

From the key questions asked, we face the standard form of 0.005 grams which will be converted into scientific notation.

$0.005 = \frac{5}{1,000}$

The coefficient (or mantissa) is 5, which has fulfilled the interval 1 ≤ a < 10.
The denominator consists precisely of three zero digits.

Hence, 0.005 grams is written in scientific notation as $\boxed{ \ 5.0 \times 10^{-3} \ grams \ }$

Because 1 milligrams is equal to 10^{- 3} grams, then

$5.0 \times 10^{-3} \ grams \times \frac{1 \ milligrams}{10^{-3} \ grams}$

Hence, 0,005 grams is 5.0 milligrams.

In science, we frequently must deal with extremely small or incredibly large quantities. For a typical example, one of the recognized limitations of the microwave frequency is 300,000,000 Hz with a photon energy of 0.00000124 eV. They with many zeros can be impractical to work with, so scientists properly implement scientific notation.

The inverse of scientific notation is the standard form. To promptly change scientific notation into standard form, we reverse the process, move the decimal point to the right or left. This expanded form is called the standard form.

$\boxed{ \ 3.0 \times 10^{8} \ Hz \ \rightarrow 300,000,000 \ Hz \ or \ 300 \ MHz \ }$

$\boxed{ \ 0.00000124 \ eV \ \rightarrow 1.24 \times 10^{-6} \ eV \ or \ 1.24 \ \mu eV \ }$

Which undefined terms are needed to define a line segment

Finger [1]

Unsure of what you are asking!

But if the issue here is how to define a line segment, write what you do know and then reconsider "undefined terms."

A line segment is a straight line that connects a given starting point and given ending point.

If you consider a circle of radius 3 units, the radius can be thought of as the line segment connecting the center of the circle to any point on the circumference of the circle.

If the center of a given circle is at C(0,0) and a point on the circumference is given by R(3sqrt(2),3sqrt(2)), then AC is the line segment joining these two points. This line segment has length 3 and is in the first quadrant, with coordinates x=3sqrt(2) and y=3sqrt(2) describing the end point of the segment.

Suppose Wesley is a marine biologist who is interested in the relationship between the age and the size of male Dungeness crabs.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

20.24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, since the age of the crab is given in months and the regression line was computed using the age in months, we just have to replace the value of the age in the formula to estimate the size.

The formula obtained for the estimated size Y was

Y = 9.1411 + 0.4775X

where X is the age in months

Replacing X with 23.2417, we get

Y = 9.1411 + 0.4775*23.2417 = 20.24 cm
