Norma-Jean [14]

3/5n - 4/5 = 1/5n....multiply everything by 5 to get rid of the fractions
3n - 4 = n
-4 = n - 3n
-4 = -2n
-4/-2 = n
2 = n <==

Can someone help me dividing fractions: 2/10%1/2 with procces

sleet_krkn [62]

First off, 2/10 can be simplified. 2 divided by 2 is 1. So the numerator is 1. 10divided by 2 is 5. Denominator is 5. So right now your first fraction is 2/5. 2/5 divided by 1/2. First, you keep your first fraction. You switch the division sign to multiplication, and always do the reciprocal (flip it around) of the second fraction. So instead of 1/2, it would be 2/1. Then multiply. 2/5 x 2/1. 2x2 is 4, 5x1 is 5. 4- numerator/5-denominator. Your answer is 4/5.

Terry is skiing down a steep hill. Terry's elevation, E(t), in feet after t seconds is given by E(t)=2600−50t.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Part 1) The equation tells us that Terry started at an elevation of 2,600 ft

Part 2) The elevation is decreasing by 50 feet each second

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$E(t)=2,600-50t$

where

E(t) is Terry's elevation in feet

t is the time in seconds

Part 1) Find the E intercept of the equation

The E-intercept is the value of E when the value of t is equal to zero

so

For t=0

substitute

$E(0)=2,600-50(0)$

$E(0)=2,600\ ft$

therefore

The equation tells us that Terry started at an elevation of 2,600 ft

Part 2) Find the slope of the equation

we have

$E(t)=2,600-50t$

This is the equation of the line into slope intercept form

The slope m is equal to

$m=-50\ ft/sec$

The slope is negative, because is decreasing

therefore

The elevation is decreasing by 50 feet each second
