Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

i'm pretty sure that you will have to add it.

so, when we add two fractions such as 3/4 + 3/4, we make sure that the denominators (the bottom numbers) are the same and then we simply add the numerators (the  top numbers).

in this problem, the denominators are the same so we will simply add 3+3 which equals to 6/4. the denominator will remain the same.

               <em>answer:</em>

                      3/4 + 3/4    =   6/4

<u>i hope this is helpful. </u>

Identify the percent of change as an increase or a decrease. 50 pounds to 35 pounds. Find the percent of change.
Solnce55 [7]
Since it starts at 50 and goes to 35....it is a decrease since the amount is going down, or getting smaller.  To find the percent, first find the difference 50-35 = 15; then divide by the initial amount of 50.  So, 15/50 = 0.3, and then convert that to a percent by multiplying by 100.  Therefore the percent decrease is 30%

natta225 [31]

Answer:

The elevation closest to the sea level is –42ft and the elevation farthest from the sea level is –8ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume the elevation above the sea level is on a number line, then we have to arrange the given number from lowest to highest. These are the numbers in ascending order.

–42ft, –20ft, –18ft, –8ft.

From here we see that, the elevation closest to the sea level is –42ft and the elevation farthest from the sea level is –8ft.

4x+3=-5 helppp please
Goryan [66]

Answer: x = -2

Step-by-step explanation: To solve for <em>x</em>, in the equation you see here, our goal is to get <em>x</em> by itself.

Our first step will be to isolate the term containing <em>x</em> which in this case is 4x. To isolate 4x, we have to get rid of the +3 by subtracting 3 from both sides of the equation. On the left, +3 and -3 cancel out and we're left with 4x. On the right, -5 - 3 simplifies to -8.

Now we have the equation 4x = -8.

To get <em>x</em> by itself, we divide both sides of the equation by 4. On the left, the 4's cancel and on the right, -8 divided by 3 is -2 so <em>x = -2</em>
