If 3/p = 6 and 3/q = 15 then p - q =?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sphinxa [80]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

0.3 or 3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

If \frac{3}{p} = 6, then p must be 0.5 (since 3/[1/2] is also 3x2).

If \frac{3}{q} = 15, then q must be 0.2 (since 3/[1/5] is also 3x5).

p - q would be 0.5 - 0.2, which means the final answer is 0.3 (3/10).

posledela

Answer: \dfrac{13}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Fraction of 7th graders got A = \dfrac14

Fraction of 7th graders got B = \dfrac25

The fraction of the students got an A or B = Fraction of 7th graders got  + Fraction of 7th graders got B

=\dfrac14+\dfrac25\\\\=\dfrac{5+2(4)}{5\times4}\\\\=\dfrac{5+8}{20}\\\\=\dfrac{13}{20}

Hence, the required fraction: \dfrac{13}{20}

Write the point-slope form of the equation for a line that passes through (6, -1) with a slope of 2
defon

ANSWER

y + 1=2(x-6)

EXPLANATION

The point-slope form of a line is given by;

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

where

m = 2

is the slope of the line and (6,-1) is point.

We substitute the point and the slope into the formula to obtain:

y + 1=2(x-6)

Hence the b point slope form of the line with the given properties is

What addition expressions have a value of 8
ololo11 [35]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 + 7 = 8

2 + 6 = 8

3 + 5 = 8

\frac{600}{100} + 1\frac{1234567890}{1234567890} = 8

\sqrt{4} + \sqrt{4} + \sqrt{4} + \sqrt{4} = 8

2^{2} + 2^{2} = 8
