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

-5-(-1\frac{3}{4})\\=-5-(-1-\frac{3}{4} )\\=-5-(-\frac{7}{4})

Now we will solve bracket by multiplying -1 with term inside the bracket i.e

=-5+\frac{7}{4}

= \frac{-13}{4}

Let's compare both the procedures now:

Mariah:

(-5) + 1 - \frac{3}{4}

=(-5) - \frac{1}{4}

=\frac{-21}{4}

Therefore, Mariah did not start the problem correctly.

Shane:

(-5) + 1 + \frac{3}{4}

= -5 + \frac{7}{4}

= \frac{-13}{4}

Therefore, Shane started the problem correctly.

Irina rode her bike to work at an average speed of 16 miles per hour. It started to rain, so she got a ride home along the same
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

0.7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Irina was able to make the same distance from work to home in 0.4 of an hour at 27 miles per hour, we can use this rate and time to find the distance she travels to and from work using the general formula:

d = rt, where d=distance, r = rate and t = time

d = 27(0.4) = 10.8 miles

Since the distance from Irina's home to work is 10.8 miles, we can again use the formula 'd = rt' to find the time it takes her to bike to work at a rate of 16 miles per hour and solving for time, 't':

10.8 = (16)t

t = 0.7 hours

Kumar bought some mangoes. The price of each mango () is found to be 6 more than the total number of mangoes bought by him and t
spayn [35]

Answer:

Price = 20, Amount = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

A = Amount of Mangoes

P = Price for 1 Mango

P = A + 6

280 = P * A

insert A+6 for P

280 = (A+6) * A

280 = 6A + A²

280=1*a^2+6*a  | Vertausche beide Seiten der Gleichung.

1*a^2+6*a=280  | quadratische Ergänzung: ergänze auf beiden Seiten (3)^2

1*a^2+6*a+(3)^2=3^2+280  | Rechne 3 hoch 2 aus.

1*a^2+6*a+(3)^2=9+280  | addiere 9 und 280

1*a^2+6*a+(3)^2=9+280  | Fasse die rechte Seite mit Hilfe der binomischen Formel zusammen.

1*(1*a+(3))^2=289  | Auf beiden Seiten Quadratwurzel ziehen.

1*a+(3)=+-*289^0.5  

1*a_1+(3)=289^0.5  

1*a_1+3=289^0.5  | Ziehe die Wurzel aus 289

1*a_1+3=17  | -3

1*a_1=14
