He bought 19/24 pounds of grapes.   

   3          5 
-------  + ------- = 0
   8         12

In adding fractions. 
Step 1: make sure the denominators are the same. 8 and 12 are not the same. But both are factors of 24. 

8 * 3 = 24
12 * 2 = 24

Multiply both numerator and denominator of 3/8 by 3 and 5/12 by 2.

 3 * 3                5 * 2           9         10         
---------      +    -------------  = -------- + --------- 
8 * 3                12 * 2         24        24        

Step 2. Since the denominator is now the same, add the numerator and put it over the denominator.

9 + 10       19          
---------- =   -------
   24          24

Step 3. Simplify the fraction.

19 
----
24   is already the simplified form.

Calculate the missing angle and give a reason for your answer
Vanyuwa [196]

Step-by-step explanation:

the triangle is an isosceles triangle hence the base angles are equal

sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, therefore, the top angle =180-(62+62)

the top angle =56°

h°= the top angle because alternate angles are equal

hence, h=56°

At the bank, Derek made 7 withdrawals, each in the same amount. His brother, John, made 5 withdrawals, each in the same amount.
lozanna [386]

Answer:

x=12.50

y = 17.50

Step-by-step explanation:

x = Amount of one Derek withdrawal

then amount of John withdrawal =x+5

Total withdrawals of Derek = no of times x one time withdrawal

= 7(x) = 7x ... i

No of John withdrawal = no of times x one time withdrawal

= 5(x+5)  ... ii

Given that i and ii are equal

i.e. 7x =5(x+5)

7x = 5x+25

2x =25

x = 12.50 dollars

Y = 17.50 dollars

Checking part:

total derek withdrawal = 7(12.5) =87.50

Joh's withdrawal = 5(17.50) = 87.50

Since both are equal, our answers are right.

Solution:  Derek withdrew each time 12.50 dollars each for 7 times and John withdrew 17.50 dollars each for 5 times.

Put the following equation of a line into slope intercept form simplifying all fractions 10x-2y=6
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Slope-Intercept form:   y = m x + b

y = value of y corresponding to value of x

2 y = 10 x - 6

y = 5 x - 3         equation of line where m is the slope and -3 value of y when x                      

                         equals  zero
