Answer:

It would be 10 14/25

Step-by-step explanation:

You could use a calculator for this, but that’d be cheating so let me explain.

We make both of our fractions improper first

4 4/5 = 24/5

2 1/5 = 11/5

We won’t need to change the “bottom number“ since they’re already the same, so let’s multiply them now.

24 x 11 = 264

————

5 x 5 = 24

Ten 24s can fit into 264 so our final number is

10 14/25

Answer:

10 14/25

Step-by-step explanation:

first convert mixed numbers to improper fractions

4 4/5 =24/5

2 1/5= 11/5

24/5 × 11/5

multiply it and you will get 264/25

you can't change the improper fraction into a whole number because 25 can't go into 264 evenly. So change the improper fraction to a mixed number. To do that see how many times the denominator (25) can go into the numerator (264)

It 25 go in 264 10 times. 25*10= 250

so the whole number is 10 always keep the denominator (25) the same , then subtract 264 from 250

264-250=14

so you answer is 10 14/25

The product of (4z^2 + 7z - 8) and (-z + 3) is -4z^3 + xz^2 + yz - 24. What is the value of x? What is the value of y?

ycow [4]

Answer:

$x=5+\frac{29}{z}-\frac{y}{z}$

$y=5z+29-xz$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $(4z^2+7z-8)(-z+3)=-4z^3+xz^2+yz-24$ ; find x and y.

Let's start with finding x first. Let's distribute the left side of the equation.

$-4z^3+5z^2+29z-24=-4z^3+xz^2+yz-24$

Let's move everything we can to the left side of the equation. Some things will cancel out.

$5z^2+29z=xz^2+yz$

Now, let's move the term that includes $x$ to the left side of the equation. Everything else should be moved to the right.

$-xz^2=-5z^2-29z+yz$

Let's get rid of the negative sign in front of $x$ by dividing both sides by -1.

$xz^2=5z^2+29z-yz$

To get $x$ completely isolated, divide both sides by $z^2$ .

$\frac{xz^2}{z^2}=\frac{5z^2}{z^2}+\frac{29z}{z^2}-\frac{yz}{z^2}$

Simplify.

$x=5+\frac{29}{z}-\frac{y}{z}$

Let's solve for y. We will start with the distributed and simplified equation to make it easier.

$5z^2+29z=xz^2+yz$

Now, let's move the term that includes $y$ to the left side of the equation. Everything else should be moved to the right.

$-yz=-5z^2-29z+xz^2$

Again, let's get rid of the negative sign in front of the $y$ by dividing both sides by -1.

$yz=5z^2+29z-xz^2$

To isolate y, divide both sides by z.

$\frac{yz}{z}=\frac{5z^2}{z}+\frac{29z}{z}-\frac{xz^2}{z}$

Simplify.

$y=5z+29-xz$
