Answer:
Shane started the problem correctly
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given problem (-5) - (-1 3/4).
Mariah started the problem as (-5) + 1 - 3/4
Shane started the problem as (-5) + 1 + 3/4
We need to find who started the problem correctly.
The problem should be started by converting the mixed fraction into improper fraction i,e
Now we will solve bracket by multiplying -1 with term inside the bracket i.e
Let's compare both the procedures now:
Mariah:
Therefore, Mariah did not start the problem correctly.
Shane:
Therefore, Shane started the problem correctly.
Answer:
2/21x7/5 is 14/105
Step-by-step explanation:
Jacqueline is incorrect.
To find how much trash you can clean in 4 days if you already know how much trash you can clean in one day, multiply 1 2/3 (how much you can clean in one day) by 4.
Another way to write 1 and 2/3 miles is 5/3 (converting a mixed number to a single fraction). Then, 5/3 x 4 = 20/3. (To multiply fractions, just multiply across, leaving 5 x 4 in the numerator and 4 x 1 in the denominator.)
Jacqueline said you would be able to clean 19/3 miles but you can actually clean 20/3.
The slope of the line is -1/7, so the perpendicular line has a slope of 7
Answer:
18 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
Blue : red : White = 5 : 3 : 2
Quantity of Blue paint = 5x
Quantity of Red paint = 3x
Quantity of White paint = 2x
Total paint = 5x + 3x + 2x = 10x
10x = 60 liters
x = 60/10
x = 6
Quantity of red paint = 3x = 3*6 = 18
