First, you put each fraction into its greatest common denominator:
5/20 - 12/20. This then gives you the answer - 7/20.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age be xy or 10x + y.
Reverse the two digits of my age, divide by three, add 20, and the result is my age, convert this to equation:
- (10y + x)/3 + 20 = 10x + y
- (10y + x)/3 = 10x + y - 20
- 10y + x = 3(10x + y - 20)
- 10y + x = 30x + 3y - 60
- 30x - x + 3y - 10y = 60
- 29x - 7y = 60
We should consider both x and y are between 1 and 9 since both the age and its reverse are 2-digit numbers.
Possible options for x are:
- 29x ≥ 7*1 + 60 = 67 ⇒ x > 2, at minimum value of y,
and
- 29x ≤ 7*9 + 60 = 123 ⇒ x < 5, at maximum value of y.
So x can be 3 or 4.
<h3>If x = 3</h3>
- 29*3 - 7y = 60
- 87 - 7y = 60
- 7y = 27
- y = 27/7, discarded as fraction.
<h3>If x = 4</h3>
- 29*4 - 7y = 60
- 116 - 7y = 60
- 7y = 56
- y = 8
So the age is 48.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given system of equations are
2x-6y-2z = 1
3y - 2z = -5
2y + 2z = -3
given
2 x - 6 y - 2 z = 1
0 x + 3 y - 2z = -5
0 x +2y + 2 z = - 3
<em>The Matrix form of the given system of equations </em>
<em>A X = B</em>

2r-20 is the answer combining the like terms and solving.
4) -0.3 = -1/3 < -1/7 since the bigger a negative number is the less positive it is. 1/8 is positive so it is clear that it should be placed last. & thus do all options this way.
5) B
Area of a triangle = ½ bh.
where b = base &
h = height.
Area of outer shape = (½ x 16 x 12) in^2.
= 96 in^2.
Area of unshaded inner shape = (½ x 3 x 4) in^2.
= 6 in^2.
Area of shaded region = (96 – 6) in^2.
= 90 in^2.
