Answer:

(1/3 - 5/6) / 5/6

You want to make 1/3 and 5/6 have the same denominator so you multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 by 2 to get 2/6. You plug that back into your equation to get: (2/6 - 5/6) / 5/6. 2/6 - 5/6 is -3/6. -3/6 divided by 5/6 is -3/6 multiplied by 6/5 which is -3/5.

  2. express the area of the rectangle in terms of w

w + h + h + w = 500 + w

2w + 2h = 500 + w

2h = 500 + w - 2w = 500 - w

h = (500 - w) / 2 = 250 - 0.5w

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

y = x [1-\frac{15}{100}]

If the variable x represents the employee's pay before tax-exempt expenses and taxes are removed and y variable represents the employee's take-home pay after these deductions and if fifteen percent of an employee's taxable income is collected each paycheck, then y is given by

y = x [1-\frac{15}{100}]. (Answer)

For, example, an employee's payment is deducted by $350 at the rate of 15% tax and other deduction.

I don’t understand this
egoroff_w [7]

Answer: OPTION A

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between any number is always positive so we should apply the absolute value.

The distance between numbers=number 1-number2 (or vise versa, and that is why we need absolute value)

In your question, the two numbers are 3/4 and 2. Applying to the expression above, the distance between two numbers should be |3/4-2| or |2-3/4|.

The only option in your case is |3/4-2| and this is it.

Hope this helps!! :)
