What is the answer to 7/8-(-1/10)+(-3/5)

Mathematics

morpeh [17]3 years ago

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Find and apply the LCD.  In this case we have the three denominators 8, 10 and 5, which in factored form are 2(4), 2(5) and 1(5).  The factors that make up the LCD are 2, 4 and 5, or 40.  Note that 8, 10 and 5 all divide evenly into 40.

So our expression, 7/8-(-1/10)+(-3/5), can be rewritten as:

35/40 + 4/40 - 24/40, which simplifies first to 39/40 - 24/40, and then to:

15/40.

This 15/40 reduces to 3/8.

Answer:

$400 and $1,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the x be the amount invested in 7% account

And, 600 + x be the amount invested in 9% account

Now the equation is

7x% + 9%(600 + x) = $118

0.07x + 54 + 0.09x = $118

0.16x = $118 -$54

0.16x = $64

x = $400

And, the other one is = $400 + $600 = $1,000

6. If 55% of the selling price is markup, the remainder (45%) is the cost. Gaitan can pay up to 45% of 489.50 = $220.28.

7. If 52% of the selling price is markup, the remainder (48%) is the cost. 48% of the selling price is $38.87.

... 0.48 × selling price = cost

... selling price = cost/0.48 = $38.87/0.48 = $80.98

8. If 40% of the selling price is markup, the remainder (60%) is the cost, $12.95.

... 0.60 × selling price = $12.95

... selling price = $12.95/0.60 = $21.58

9. If 35% of the selling price is markup, the remainder (65%) is the cost.

... 0.65 × $24.00/dz = $15.60/dz

10. If 60% of the selling price is markup, the remainder (40%) is the cost. Veronica can pay up to 40% of $600.00 = $240 for the jacket.
