First, we need to find the LCD (Least Common Denominator) so we can subtract them much easier.

An easy way to find the LCD is to just multiply the denominators together: So 2 • 5 = 10

We have to do the same to the numerators too though.

1/2 (5) = 5/10

2/5 (2) = 4/10

Now, the remade expression is:

5/10 - 4/10 which will equal 1/10.

Answer:

3 1/3 is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewriting equation:

4 + 5/6 - 1 - 1/2

4 - 1 = 3

5/6 - 1/2 = ?

Find the LCD of 5/6 and 1/2 and rewrite to solve.

5/6 - 3/6 = 2/6

2/6 = 1/3

3 + 1/3 = 3 1/3

Whole number: 3

numerator: 1

denominator: 3

A book sold 41,900 copies in its first month of release. Suppose this represents 8.1% of copies sold to date. How many copies ha

babymother [125]

517284 books have been sold to date.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Copies sold in first month = 41900

This represents 8.1% of copies sold to date.

Let,

x be the number of copies that have been sold to date.

8.1% of x = 41900

$\frac{8.1}{100}*x=41900\\0.081x=41900\\$

Dividing both sides by 0.081

$\frac{0.081x}{0.081}=\frac{41900}{0.081}\\x=517283.95$

Rounding off to nearest whole number

x = 517284

517284 books have been sold to date.

Yuri [45]

Answer:

relationship between base and hypotenuse is given by cos angle

let angle be ø

cos ø=b/h

cosø=28/34

ø=cos-¹(28/34)=34.5°

Which of the following can be modeled with an exponential function? Select all that apply.

bogdanovich [222]

Answer: The answers are

(ii) The cost to attend Universal Studios increases by 1% each year,

(iii) An endangered species population is decreasing by 12% each year,

(iv) The population of a town that is growing by 5% each year.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given five functions and we are to select those which can be modelled with an exponential function.

(i) Here, height is varying with respect to time, so it will be a linear function.

(ii) Here, the cost to attend Universal Studios is increasing by 1% every year, so this will be an exponential function.

(iii) Here, an endangered species population is decreasing by 12% each year.

So, this will also be an exponential function.

(iv) Since we are considering the distance travelled by the bicycle at a constant speed of 25 mph, so this will be a linear function.

(v) Here also the population is growing by 5% each year. So, the function will be exponential.

Thus, the correct answer is second, third and fifth.

Math help will give brainliest<br>X is 7 but I got m angle D wrong

STatiana [176]

Answers:
x = 7
The measure of angle D is 14 degrees

-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------

Angle C and angle D are complementary, which means they add to 90 degrees.

(angle C) + (angle D) = 90
(12x-8) + (3x-7) = 90
12x-8 + 3x-7 = 90
(12x+3x) + (-8-7) = 90
15x-15 = 90
15x-15+15 = 90+15
15x = 105
15x/15 = 105/15
x = 7

So you have the correct x value. Nice work.

Now use this x value to find the measure of angle D

angle D = 3*x - 7
angle D = 3*7 - 7
angle D = 21 - 7
angle D = 14 degrees
