You need common denominators to add or subtract fractions. If you multiple (2/5) by 2 to both the top and bottom, you get (4/10). Now you just subtract the top numbers, or numerators. 4 - 3 = 1. Answer: 1/10.

A boat traveled 336 miles downstream and back. The trip downstream took 12 hours. The trip upstream took 14 hours. What is the s
Alexeev081 [22]

x - boat speed; y - current speed; Path = 336:2 = 168 miles

1) 12 * (x + y) = 168; -> x + y = 14;

2)  14 * (x - y) = 168; -> x - y = 12;

1) x = 14 - y;

2) (14 - y) - y = 12;

14 - 2y = 12;

2y = 2;

y = 1 mph

x = 14 - 1 = 13 mph

Answer:

Boat speed = 13 mph

Current speed = 1 mph

AleksAgata [21]

Given :

A 136 foot tall cell phone tower casts a 79.9 foot shadow.

To Find :

The shadow length for a nearby 40 foot telephone pole .

Solution :

We know , the ratio of height and shadow , will be same for every object .

Let , length of shadow of pole is x .

So ,

\dfrac{79.9}{136}=\dfrac{x}{40}\\\\x=\dfrac{79.9\times 40}{136}\ foot\\\\x=23.5\ foot

Therefore , the length of shadow of tower is 23.5 foot .

Hence , this is the required solution .

Solve the equation. x + 2.6 = 3.5<br>    x = –0.9 <br>   x = –6.1 <br>   x = 6.1<br>    x = 0
denpristay [2]

x + 2.6 = 3.5\\ \\ x=3.5-2.6\\ \\ x=0.9

There may be an error with the first answer choice because it can't have a negative. The problem is x + 2.6 = 3.5 correct?

Hope this helps!
