Express each fraction as the sum of two pr three equal fractional parts

a ABC company stock dropped from 25 3/8 to 22 1/4 during a one month period of time so how much stock fall during this period of

OLEGan [10]

First, let's convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction (trust me, mixed fraction are pretty much the worst things to deal with, especially with higher level math):
$25 \frac{3}{8} = \frac{203}{8}$
$22 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{89}{4}$

Then, to subtract, since you need a common denominator, I would multiply the second fraction by 2 to get:
$2 (\frac{89}{4} ) = \frac{178}{8}$

Now that we have a common denominator, we are ready to subtract:
$\frac{203}{8} - \frac{178}{8} = \frac{25}{8}$

Since that's the most simplified form, and you have been asked the question in a mixed fraction form, let's convert that to a mixed fraction. The remainder of the numerator divided by the denominator is 1, and the quotient is 3. The denominator stays the same. So, this is what results:
$3 \frac{1}{8}$

And that's your answer: $3 \frac{1}{8}$

Hope this all makes sense. If anything doesn't, feel free to tell me!

The sum of three consecutive is 267. What is the largest integer

Oliga [24]

Consecutive means in order. So let's call the first integer x. The next number in line would be x+1 and the largest integer would be x+2. Let's prove that so you're not confused. If x is 3, then x+1 is 4 (next in line), and x+2 is 5 next after that. See? So if we add all those together we set them equal to 267 and solve for x: x + x+1 + x+2 = 267. Combining like terms gives us 3x + 3 = 267 and 3x = 264. Now dividing both sides by 3 we get that x = 88. That's the smallest integer; the largest is found by adding 88 + 2 which is 90. So that means that the numbers are 88, 89, 90, and that adding them up = 267. Let's check that now: 88+89+90=267 so we're good.

1/2x + 4=9 What does x equal?

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x+4=9

subtract 4 from both sides

1/2x=5

multiply both sides by 2 to get x by itself

x=10

On a coordinate plane, a curved line with a minimum value of (5.1, negative 7) and a maximum value of (0, 25), crosses the x-axi

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The true statement is D

Step-by-step explanation:

The rest of the question is the attached figure and the statement options.

A. Over the interval [–4, –2], the local minimum is 0.
B. Over the interval [–2, –1], the local minimum is 25.
C. Over the interval [–1, 4], the local minimum is 0.
D. Over the interval [4, 7], the local minimum is -7.

============================================================

According to the graph, we will check the options:

A. Over the interval [–4, –2], the local minimum is 0. (Wrong)

Because the minimum is -12

B. Over the interval [–2, –1], the local minimum is 25. (Wrong)

Because the minimum is 18

C. Over the interval [–1, 4], the local minimum is 0. (Wrong)

Because the minimum is at x = 4 less than zero

D. Over the interval [4, 7], the local minimum is -7. (True)
