Answer:

$\frac{161}{24}=6\frac{17}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3\frac{7}{8}+2\frac{5}{6}$

Convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions:

$\frac{31}{8}+\frac{17}{6}$

Find the common denominator and write equivalent fractions:

$(\frac{31}{8}\times{\frac{3}{3}})+(\frac{17}{6}\times{\frac{4}{4}})$

$\frac{93}{24}+\frac{68}{24}$

Add:

$\frac{93}{24}+\frac{68}{24}=\frac{161}{24}$

Reduce to mixed fraction:

$\frac{161}{24}=6\frac{17}{24}$

Answer: 6 and 17/24

Step-by-step explanation: To add mixed numbers, first add the fractions. Since 7/8 and 5/6 are unlike fractions, we need a common denominator which in this case is 24.

If we multiply 7/8 by 3 in both the numerator and denominator, we get the equivalent fraction 21/24.

If we multiply 5/6 by 4 in both the numerator and denominator, we get the equivalent fraction 20/24.

Now we can add 21/24 + 20/24 to get 41/24. Finally, we add the whole numbers which is 3 + 7 to get 10.

Since 41/24 is an improper fraction, we can change it into the mixed number which is 6 and 17/24.

25 POINTS!!! The equation y=470x represents the relationship between x, the time that a plane flies in hours, and y, the distanc
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For plane A,

Equation that represents the relationship between time 'x' and distance 'y' is,

y = 470x

By comparing this equation with the slope-intercept form of the equation,

y = mx + b

m = slope = 470

b = 0

Here, slope represents the speed of plane A.

Therefore, speed of plane A = 470 mi per hour

For plane B,

From the given table,

Slope of the graph = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

                                = \frac{960-480}{2-1}

                                = 480

Speed of plane B = 480 miles per hour

Since, speed of plane B is more than plane A,

Plane B is flying faster.
