Answer:

  • Step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given work on simplification</u>

  • (6 and one-half + 2 and three-fourths) minus 1.5 times (4.5 divided by 0.5)
  • (6 1/2 + 2 3/4) - 1.5 (4.5 ÷ 0.5)

<u>Step 1</u> 9 and one-fourth minus 1.5 times (4.5 divided by 0.5)

  • 9 1/4 - 1.5 (4.5 ÷ 0.5)
  • This is ok as first step is solving parenthesis

<u>Step 2</u> 7.75 times (4.5 divided by 0.5)

  • 7.75 (4.5 ÷ 0.5)
  • Incorrect, subtraction should be the last step

Answer: second step.

Step-by-step explanation:

you then have to distribute the answer not subtract 9 1/4 from 1.5

you have to do the parenthesis next

4.5/0.5=45/5=9

then

1.5*9= 13.5

then

9.25-13.5 which I think you are capable of solving

Alex went to the grocery store and bought 5 avocados. He paid $10 and received $4.50 in change. How much did each avocado cost i
Delvig [45]

Answer:

$1.10

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been that Alex went to the grocery store and bought 5 avocados. He paid $10 and received $4.50 in change.

First of all, we will find amount paid for 5 avocados by subtracting $4.50 from $10.

\text{Amount paid for 5 avocados}=\$10-\$4.50

\text{Amount paid for 5 avocados}=\$5.50

Now, we will divide $5.50 by 5 to find cost of each avocado.

\text{Cost of each avocado}=\frac{\$5.50}{5}

\text{Cost of each avocado}=\$1.10

Therefore, the cost of each avocado is $1.10.

The parabolic arch of a bridge over a one-way road can be described by the equation y = -x^2 + 6, where x and y ar emeasured in
Vladimir [108]
So check the picture below

if we check the solutions or zeros for the equation, we get \bf y=-x^2+6\implies 0=-x^2+6\implies x=\pm \sqrt{6}

and as you can see in the picture, the value of "x" when y = 3.5, or the height of the truck is  \bf y=-x^2+6\implies 3.5=-x^2+6\implies x=\pm \sqrt{2.5}

the truck, ends up with a clearance of \bf \sqrt{2.5}-1.5 on either side, so, the maximum clearance, the truck can have, those two clearances added together, \bf 2(\sqrt{2.5}-1.5)
