No.
It's not smaller either.
0.5 is exactly equal to 9/18 .
Both of them are different ways to write "one half".

0.5 > 9 / 18 = False

3/7 x 28/9 x 15/17 ... how do I use cancellation? my answer was 15/17 but thats not the right answer, can someone explain this a

Ne4ueva [31]

First you cancel 7 and 28, and 3 and 9, so that leaves you with 4/3 x 15/17, then you cancel 3 and 15 so you get 4x5/17 which should give you 20/17!

The area of the conference table in Mr. Nathan’s office must be no more than 175 ft2. If the length of the table is 18 ft more t

valentina_108 [34]

The answer is 0 < x ≤ 7

First, we know that width = x
Which means that length = x +18

So, the possible equation for the Table's area is

X (X + 18) ≤ 175

X^2 + 18x - 175 ≤ 0

Next, we need to calculate is by using complete square method
x^2 + 18x + 81 ≤ 175 + 81

(x + 9)^2 ≤ 256

|x + 9| ≤ sqrt(256)

|x + 9| ≤ +-16

-16 ≤ x + 9 ≤ 16

-16 - 9 ≤ x ≤ 16 - 9

-25 ≤ x ≤ 7

Since the width couldn't be negative, we can change -25 with 0,

so it become
 0 < x ≤ 7

Tara wants to weigh her three stuffed animals. They will only fit on the scale two at a time. Together Addie and Missy weight 18

Pepsi [2]

Answer: Addie weighs 4 ounces

Missy weighs 14 ounces

Corky weighs 8 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a represent the weight of Addie.

Let m represent the weight of Missy.

Let c represent the weight of Corky.

Together Addie and Missy weigh 18 ounces. This means that

a + m = 18 - - - - - - - - - 1

Missy and Corky weigh 22 ounces. This means that

m + c = 22

m = 22 - c - - - - - - - - - - 2

Addie and Corky weigh 12 ounces. This means that

a + c = 12

a = 12 - c - - - - - - - - - - - 3

Substituting equation 2 and equation 3 into equation 1, it becomes

22 - c + 12 - c = 18

34 - 2c = 18

- 2c = 18 - 34 = - 16

c = - 16/ - 2 = 8

Substituting c = 8 into equation 2, it becomes

m = 22 - 8

m = 14

Substituting c = 8 into equation 3, it becomes

a = 12 - 8

a = 4
