Answer:
1.9 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
John jogs 2 7/10 miles to the park. Marsha jogs 4/5 miles to the park.
Convert the fractions into decimals:
2 7/10 = 2.7
4/5 = 0.8
Subtract '0.8' from '2.7':

John should jog 1.9 miles farther than Marsha.
Hope this helps.
<u>old:</u> $16
<u>new:</u> $20
<u>percent increase</u>
-> formula: (new-old / old) x 100
(20-16 / 16) x 100
4/16 x 100
0.25 x 100
answer: 25% increase
I think the trick is to add the two middle terms together. (And the 2 end terms).
8 - 12x
The variable is x. The coefficient is - 12.
8 is a constant.
The coefficient always goes with a variable.
3x^2 + 2x + 5
Nothing can be combined. The leading coefficient is 3 (which goes with the greatest power of the variable x^2 in this case) and the other coefficient is 2. 5 is a constant.
