Answer:

How much did they eat all together? 5/6

How much was left over? 1/6

\\

Step-by-step explanation:

How much did they eat all together?

\frac{2}{4}  +  \frac{1}{3}  \\  =  \frac{6}{12}  +  \frac{4}{12}  \\  =  \frac{10}{12}  \\  =  \frac{5}{6}

\\

How much was left over?

1 - \frac{5}{6}  \\  =  \frac{6}{6}  -  \frac{5}{6}  \\  =  \frac{1}{6}

Answer:

<em>Pizza eaten together: 5/6,</em>

<em>Pizza left over: 1/6</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

~ If Ellen ate 2/4th of the pizza and John ate 1/3 of the pizza, provided that the pizza counts as a whole ( 1 )... ~

1. Let us simplify 2/4th to be ⇒ 1/2, through simple algebra

2. To see how much they ate together we would neglect that the pizza counts as a whole but simply add 1/2 by 1/3rd.

3. Through simple algebra: 1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = <em>Pizza eaten together: 5/6</em>

4. Now to find out how much pizza was left over, we would need the fact that a pizza ⇒ 1 whole. It would be that 1 - 1/2 - 1/3 ⇒ Pizza left over, through the <em>Partition Postulate. </em>In fact, the pizza left over would simply be 1 whole - the pizza eaten together ( 5/6 ).

5. Through algebra: 1 - 1/2 - 1/3 = 1 - 5/6 = <em>Pizza left over: 1/6</em>

Solve y
Ksivusya [100]

The value of y in -3 = 7\left(y-\dfrac97\right) is 6/7

<h3>How to solve for y?</h3>

The equation is given as:

-3 = 7\left(y-\dfrac97\right)

Open the bracket

-3 = 7y - 9

Add 9 to both sides of the equation

7y = 6

Divide both sides by 7

y= 6/7

Hence, the value of y in -3 = 7\left(y-\dfrac97\right) is 6/7

The average of A and B is 6. The average of X, Y, and Z is 16. What is the average of A, B, X, Y, and Z?
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Average of A and B is 6

(A+B) /2 = 6

Multiply each side by 2

A+B = 12

average of X, Y, and Z is 16

(X+Y+Z)/3 = 16

Multiply each side by 3

(X+Y+Z) = 48

To find the average of all of them

(A+B+X+Y+Z)/5

replace A+B with 12 and X+Y+Z with 48

(12+48)/5

60/5 = 12

Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of equations? {x+3y=-12, y= 1/3x-6?
Julli [10]

For this, I'll be using the substitution method. Since y = 1/3x - 6, replace the y variable in the first equation with 1/3x - 6 and solve for x:

x+3(\frac{1}{3}x-6)=-12\\ x+x-18=-12\\ 2x-18=-12\\ 2x=6\\ x=3

Now that we have the value of x, plug it into either equation to solve for y:

3+3y=-12\\ 3y=-15\\ y=-5\\ \\ y=\frac{1}{3}*3-6\\ y=1-6\\ y=-5

<h3><u>In short, the solution to this equation is (3,-5).</u></h3>
