<h3>Answer: -22/7</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

The fraction 6/(-7) is the same as -6/7

We have the two fraction -6/7 and 3/11 being divided

The denominators are 7 and 11 respectively.

The LCM of those two numbers is 77 since 7*11 = 77

If we multiply each of those fractions (-6/7 and 3/11) by 77, then we'll clear out those inner denominators to simplify this complex fraction into a nicer one.

77*(-6/7) = -66

77*(3/11) = 21

This means the original complex fraction becomes -66/21

We can further simplify this by dividing each part by the GCF 3

-66/3 = -22

21/3 = 7

Therefore, the final answer is -22/7

If a wheel with a radius of 80 inches spins at a rate of 50 revolutions per minute, find the approximate linear velocity in mile

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

$\bf \textit{arc's length}\\\\
s=rw\qquad 
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
w=\textit{angular speed}
\end{cases}\qquad w=\cfrac{50 rev}{min}\cdot \cfrac{2\pi }{rev}
\\\\\\
w=\cfrac{100\pi }{min}\qquad s=80in\cdot \cfrac{100\pi }{min}\implies s=\cfrac{8000\pi\ in}{min}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{now to convert it to miles/hr}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{8000\pi\ in}{min}\cdot \cfrac{ft}{12in}\cdot \cfrac{mile}{5280ft}\cdot \cfrac{60min}{hr}\implies \cfrac{8000\pi \cdot 60\ in}{12\cdot 5280\ hr}$

What is the answer to this question?

Degger [83]

Answer:

$y = -\frac{19}{9}x + \frac{5}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

19x + 9y = 15

Required:

Rewrite in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b

SOLUTION:

19x + 9y = 15

Subtract 19x from both sides

9y = -19x + 15

Divide both sides by 9

y = -19x/9 + 15/9

$y = -\frac{19}{9}x + \frac{5}{3}$
