Answer:
The simplification for the expression is given as =( 7 + 2(a-3))/(a-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify the expression we will first convert the words to values in numbers and alphabets.
StartFraction 5 Over a minus 3 EndFraction minus 4 divided by 2 + StartFraction 1 Over a minus 3 EndFraction
= 5/(a-3) -4/2 + 2/(a-3)
Having done that, let's move on and simplify the expression.
5/(a-3) -4/2 + 2/(a-3)
= 5/(a-3) -2+ 2/(a-3)
= 5/(a-3) + 2/(a-3) -2
= 7/(a-3) -2
=( 7 + 2(a-3))/(a-3)
To find out how many miles does each person run, we can divide the total miles by 4 as each part is equal:
14÷4
=3.5miles
Each of them have to run 3.5 miles.
To prove the answer, we can multiply it by 4 to see if it is the original distance:
3.5 x 4
=14miles
Therefore 3.5 is the answer.
Hope it helps!
C. 5/6
30 people with soda + 45 people with lemonade = 75/90 people
simplifies to 5/6.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the total cost of the building expressed as;
C = 4550F + 37.5
C is the total cost
F is the length of the fence
Given
C = $352.50
Required
The length of the fence F
Substitute into the formula;
C = 4550F + 37.5
$352.50 = 4550F + 37.5
4550F = 352.50 - 36.5
4550F = 316
F = 316/4550
F = 0.0695 feet
hence 0.0695 feet of fence will cost $352.50
