8/9 - 1/5 
= 5(8/9)-9(1/5)
=(40/45)-(9/45)
=31/45
 

therefore 31/45 of the estate would go to the American cancer society

Which graph has a slope of 1/2?
ryzh [129]
A slope of 1/2 means for every two units to the right we move up one.

We have to be careful here because the graphs don't always use the same scale for x and y.

The bottom left uses the same scale and does indeed go two units to the right for every unit up, so that one is the answer.

KonstantinChe [14]
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "<span>C. 600 mi./hr. "</span>

Plane flies from City A to City B in 12 minutes. The distance is 120 miles.

I need to solve for x, help please.
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

x = 52   i hope this helps!   :)

Step-by-step explanation:

so first you gotta realize that every triangle has an interior angle measurement sum of 180 degrees

so we are given 3 angles   74 degrees  x + 2  and x

we now are going to put this into an equation   74 + x + 2 + x = 180

now lets combine like terms to get   76 + 2x = 180

then we are going to subtract the 76 from both sides   2x = 104

now lets divide both sides by 2   x = 52

so x = 52

we can plug in the value of x into both of the other equations to find the angle measurement

52 degrees

52 + 2 = 54 degrees

and then we have 74 degrees

add the 52, 54, and the 74 to make sure it is equal to 180 degrees

106 + 74 = 180

so yes, x does indeed equal 52 degrees
