What number should be added to -3/2 to get -5/8​

Mathematics
1 answer:
sertanlavr [38]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: 7 / 8 should be added

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number that should be added

Write the equation

-3/2 + x = -5/8

Add -3/2 on both sides

-3/2 + x + 3/2 = -5/8 + 3/2

x = -5/8 + 3/2

Change the denominator of 3/2 to 8 in order to do addition

x = -5/8 + 12 / 8

x = 7 / 8

Hope this helps!! :)

A volunteer has 12 pounds of birdseed to put in the bird feeders in all of the city parks. There are 13/4 cups of birdseed in a
kozerog [31]

Answer:

\large \boxed{28}

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculate the number of cups

\text{Cups} = \text{12 lb}\times\dfrac{1\frac{3}{4} \text{ cups}}{\text{1 lb}} =12\times\dfrac{\text{7 cups}}{4} = 3\times7\text{ cups}= \text{21 cups}

2. Calculate the number of bird feeders

\text{ Feeders}= \text{21 cups} \times \dfrac{\text{1 feeder}}{\frac{3}{4}\text{ cup}}=\text{21 cups} \times \dfrac{\text{4 feeders}}{\text{3 cups}} = 7 \times \text{ 4 feeders}\\\\= \textbf{28 feeders}\\\text{The volunteer can fill $\large \boxed{\textbf{28 feeders}}$}

Will mixes 1/4 gallon of milk and 1/2 gallon of chocolate syrup to make chocolate milk. Each serving is 1/16 gallon. How many se
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

12 servings!

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 equals 0.25 gallons, 1/2 gallons is 0.5, so Will will have a mix of 0.75 gallons. If each serving is 1/16 and 1/16 equals 0.0625, divide 0.75 by 0.0625 = 12 servings.

A solution is heated from 0°C to 100°C. Between 0°C and 50°C, the rate of temperature increase is 1.5°C/min. Between 50°C and 10
muminat

Answer:

0.6 °C/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between rates and movement is ...

time = distance/speed

Here, the "distance" is measured in °C, and the "speed" is the rate of change of temperature.

For the first half of the heating, the time required is ...

(50°C -0°C)/(1.5 °C/min) = 50/(3/2) min = 100/3 min

For the second half of the heating, the time required is ...

(100°C -50°C)/(4/10 °C/min) = 50/(4/10) = 125 min

Then the total time is ...

((100/3) +125) min = (475/3) min

And the average rate of temperature increase is ...

total temperature change / total time

= (100°C -0°C)/(475/3 min) = 300/475 °C/min = 12/19 °C/min ≈ 0.6 °C/min

Who can do this question, I don't know how to do...this is difficult for me....who can teach me?

We know that AB and CD are parallel.  This allows many assumptions.
From that we know that angle A and angle D are congruent. 
That means that x + 8 = 2x - 22 and we can solve for x
x + 8 = 2x - 22
x + 30 = 2x
30 = x or x = 30

We know from the figure that angle B is x or now that we solved for x is 30 degrees.  Also, we know that both angle A and angle D are 38 degrees.  Now we can solve for the vertical angle E which has a measure of y degrees.  A triangle has the sum of its angles equal to 180 degrees.

We can set up an equation like this 30 + 38 + y = 180
30 + 38 + y = 180
68 + y = 180
y = 112 degrees

That is how you would solve this problem
