Answer:

Altogether James walked 4\frac{4}{35} miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves mixed fractions. Mixed fractions are first converted into proper fractions and then any operation can be performed on them.

Given

Distance of first walk = 3\frac{2}{5} of a mile

Distance of second walk = 5/7

In order to find how much he walked altogether, we have to find the sum of both fractions.

Total\ distance = 3\frac{2}{5}+\frac{5}{7}\\= \frac{17}{5}+\frac{5}{7}\\=\frac{17*7}{5*7} + \frac{5*5}{7*5}\\=\frac{119}{35} + \frac{25}{35}\\=\frac{119+25}{35}\\=\frac{144}{35}\\=4\frac{4}{35}

Hence,

Altogether James walked 4\frac{4}{35} miles.

A math class is having a discussion on how to determine if the expressions 4x-x+5 and 8-3x-3 are equivalent using
Mkey [24]

Answer:

  Both expressions should be evaluated with two different values. If for each substituted value, the final values of the expressions are the same, then the two expressions must be equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both expressions are linear expressions. It takes 2 points to define a line. If the lines defined by each expression go through the same two points, then the expressions are equivalent.

If the expressions have the same value for two different variable values, they are equivalent. (choice D)

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

One more point is needed than the degree of the polynomial expression. That is, quadratic (degree 2) expressions will be equivalent if they go through the same 2+1 = 3 points.

Find the area of a regular hexagon with a 48- inch perimeter
solmaris [256]

First, you must find the side length. It is a hexagon so there are 6 sides. You take the perimeter by 6 48/6 and get 8. Then plug it into formula (3 sqrt 3)/2 a^2 where a is side length. Plug into formula and get an answer of 166.28 in^2

The data below represents the number of minutes Jake and Sarah spent doing chores
hichkok12 [17]
-

The median number of minutes for Jake and Sarah are equal, but the mean numbers are different.

-

For this, you never said the choices, but I’ve done this before, so I’m going to use the answer choices I had, and hopefully they are right.

Our choices are -

• The median number of minutes for Jake is higher than the median number of minutes for Sarah.

• The mean number of minutes for Sarah is higher than the mean number of minutes for Jake.

• The mean number of minutes for Jake and Sarah are equal, but the median number of minutes are different.

• The median number of minutes for Jake and Sarah are equal, but the mean number of minutes are different.

————————

So to answer the question, we neee to find the median and mean for each data set, so -

Jack = [90 median] [89.6 mean]
Sarah = [90 median] [89.5 mean]

We can clearly see the median for both is 90, so we can eliminate all the choices that say they are unequal.

We can also see that Jack has a higher mean (89.6) compared to Sarah (89.5).

We can eliminate all the choices that don’t imply that too.

That leaves us with -

• The median number of minutes for Jake and Sarah are equal, but the mean number of minutes are different.
