Answer:

The ratio of the government's expenses to it's receipts for 2013 is 1.3333333 trillion

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

Receipt=$2.1 trillion

Expenses=$2.8 trillion

Hence, it represent a decifit of $2.8 trillion-$2.1 trillion=$0.7 trillion

Therefore, to calculate the the ratio of the government's expenses to it's receipts for 2013 we would have to use the following formula:

ratio of the government's expenses to it's receipts=$2.8 trillion/$2.1 trillion

ratio of the government's expenses to it's receipts=1.3333333 trillion

The ratio of the government's expenses to it's receipts for 2013 is 1.3333333 trillion

5t 8=43 whats t.I WILL GIVE 50 POINTS AND IF YOU DONT RECEIVE THE POINTS TELL ME AND I WILL GIVE THEM.PLZ HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
lawyer [7]

==> I can't be sure of the equation.  There's a blank space
        between '5t' and '8', where an operation must be.
       I think the operation is more likely ' + ' (addition).  Brainly usually
       does show the ' - ' if it's subtraction, but goes blank if it's addition.
       Tell you what I'll do:  Since you sound so desperate, and you're being
       so generous with your points,  I'll show you how to figure it out both ways.

----------------------------------------

If it's subtraction:                 5t - 8 = 43

Add  8  to each side:              5t      = 51

Divide each side by  5 :            t     = 51/5

                                                 t     = 10 and 1/5

--------------------------------------------

If it's addition:                         5t + 8  =  43

Subtract  8  from each side:     5t        =  35

Divide each side by  5 :             t        =   7

HELP HELP ME PLS I AM RUNNING OUT OF TIME!!!! HERE IS MY PROBLEM:
kramer

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To write fractions with a common denominator, you will most likely need to scale some numbers up! I will explain how.

Let's try it with the fractions

2

3

and

3

12

12 is larger than 3, so we will have to multiply the 3 by some number to equal 12. (We are really finding the Least Common Multiple of the two denominators!) To do this, you have to multiply the 3 by 4, because 3x4=12. But now the numerator doesn't match the denominator. When you scale the denominator up, you have to scale the numerator up too! So the 2 must be multiplied by 4 also.

Now you have the following:

8

12

and

3

12

These fractions now have common denominators! Now they're all set for adding or subtracting fractions.

Try another:

2

6

and

3

5

: The least common multiple of 6 and 5 is 30. (the product of the denominators)

Transform each fraction by multiplying by "1":

2

6

⋅

5

5

=

10

30

and

3

5

⋅

6

6

=

18

30

One last problem:

4

9

and

7

6

What is the least common multiple of 9 and 6? Could you use 54? Absolutely, but it is not the LEAST number that you could use. How about 18? YES!

4

9

⋅

2

2

=

8

18

and

7

6

⋅

3

3

=

21

18

Ready to go...

Hope this helped!
