Answer:

3n - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

This phrase includes subtraction (“less than”) and multiplication (“times”). We are multiplying a number (3) by the variable to create the term 3n. Subtraction is not commutative, so order does matter. 17 less than 3n means we have 3n and take 17 away: 3n - 17.

A plumber pays $3.60 for 60 centimeters of pipe.Explain how the plumber can use unit cost of the pipe to find the cost of buying
kvv77 [185]
3.60 / 60cm = .06/cm or 6 cents per centimeter
100cm = 1m
$.06 * 100cm = $6.00 / m
100m = 100 * $6.00
= $600

I need help with this one asap please and thank you
inna [77]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

A

(m² - 3m + 2) / (m² - m)

we see due to a little bit of experience with expressions and multiplications of expressions that

(m² - 3m + 2) = (m - 2)(m - 1)

(m² - m) = m(m - 1)

so,

(m - 2)(m - 1) / (m(m - 1)) = (m - 2) / m

so, that's not it.

B

(m² - 2m + 1) / (m - 1)

we see again

(m² - 2m + 1) = (m - 1)(m - 1)

so,

(m - 1)(m - 1) / (m - 1) = m - 1

so, that's not it.

C

(m² - m - 2) / (m² - 1)

we see again

(m² - m - 2) = (m - 2)(m + 1)

and

(m² - 1) = (m + 1)(m - 1)

so,

(m - 2)(m + 1) / ((m + 1)(m - 1)) = (m - 2) / (m - 1)

yes, that is the solution.

D

(2m² - 4m) / (2(m - 2))

2m(m - 2) / (2(m - 2)) = 2m/2 = m

no, that is not a solution.

For each day enter the number of hours worked. Use the format shown in Model 1 and answer in terms of a reduced fraction.
natulia [17]
It is often easiest to use "military time". That is, add 12 to all the afternoon numbers and do the subtraction in the usual way. Of course, 1 hour = 60 minutes, so 10 minutes = 10/60 hour = 1/6 hour.

Mon: 15:10 -8:00 = 7:10 = 7 1/6

Tue: 15:25 -8:05 = 7:20 = 7 1/3

Wed: 14:30 -8:00 = 6:30 = 6 1/2

Thur: 14:45 -7:55 = 7:(-10) = 6:50 = 6 5/6

Fri: 15:38 -7:58 = 8:(-20) = 7:40 = 7 2/3

_____
Some calculators have nice features for working with degrees, minutes, and seconds. In this context, degrees and hours are the same thing. That is, the base-60 arithmetic is the same whether you consider the numbers to be hours or degrees. Similarly, some calculators convert nicely between decimal fractions and mixed numbers. In short, a suitable calculator will almost do this math for you. (You just need to add 12 to all the numbers in the column on the right.)
