You have to find a common denominator for both fractions. I chose the denominator to be 10, so the 1/2 will become 5/10, and 1/5 will become 2/10.
Subtract 5/10 from 2/10. You will get -3/10.
Answer: -3/10
You can check your answer by solving 1/2-3/10=1/5 to see if it is true. (It is:)
Since y=-3 you need to set up the equation
-20-(-3)
And all you have to do is simplify
So your answer will be
-17
Hope this helped :)
Have a great day
Answer:
y - 7 =
(x + 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the slope formula
to work out the slope
Then pick one point to insert into the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Lets suppose his initial weight was 60 kilograms
A gain of 20% would make his new eight 60 + 20*60/100
= 60 + 12
= 72 kg
he lost 25% of this:-
= 72 - 25 * 72/100 = 54 kg
This = (54/60) * 100 = 90% of his beginning weight Answer
The diver was 5.875 below sea level before swimming to sea level
