Answer:

11/4 or 2.75 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the difference between the original amount of blueberries and the amount she ate

original amount-amount ate

3 1/2 -3/4

To subtract, we need common denominators

The common denominator of 2 and 4 is 4

3 1/2=7/2

Multiply by 2/2 to get a common denominator of 4

7/2*2/2=14/4

Now, we have common denominators and can subtract

14/4-3/4

Subtract the numerators, and leave the denominators as 4

11/4 =2.75

She has 11/4 or 2.75 pints left

Vector v1 is 6.6 units long and points along the negative x axis. vector v2 is 8.5 units long and points at + 55° to the positiv
natita [175]
(a) what are the x and y components of each vector?
 For vector v1:
 
v1 = 6.6 (cos (180) i + sine (180) j)
 v1 = 6.6 (-1i + 0j)
 v1 = -6.6i
 
For vector v2:
 
v2 = 8.5 (cos (55) i + sine (55) j)
 v2 = 8.5 ((0.573576436) i + (0.819152044) j)
 v2 = 4.88 i + 6.96 j
 (b) determine the sum v v 1 2

 The sum of both vectors is given by:
 v1 + v2 = (-6.6i) + (4.88 i + 6.96 j)
 Adding component to component:
 v1 + v2 = (-6.6 + 4.88) i + (6.96) j
 v1 + v2 = (-1.72) i + (6.96) j

Solve please. Correctly<br> 3(1 - 2a) = -3a - 18
True [87]

Answer:

a = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

3(1 - 2a) = -3a - 18

3 - 6a = - 3a - 18

Add 18 to each side:

3 + 18 - 6a = - 3a - 18 + 18

21 - 6a = - 3a

Add 6a to each side:

21 - 6a + 6a = - 3a + 6a

21 = 3a

3a = 21

Divide each side by 3:

3a ÷ 3 = 21 ÷ 3

a = 7

two cars travel in opposite directions, starting from the same place at the same time. One travels at an average rate of 48 mile
asambeis [7]
So in 1 hour they will be 48+55=103 miles apart
how many hours will it be in 618
103 times x hours=618
divide both sides by 103
x=618/103
x=6

the answer is 6 hours
