Find the sum 1/2 + 3/8

Mathematics

Stels [109]3 years ago

Answer: 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to do this is to find a common denominator, so first we find out 2 times how much equals 8? 2x4 = 8. So with 8 being our common denominator, we have to multiple 4 to every number in the fraction 1/2. So 1x4 = (4/8) = 2x4. Then you just add the top numbers, so 4 + 3 = 7 and keep the denominator. 7/8.

An 80 kg boat that is 9.6 m in length is initially 7.6 m from the pier. A 46 kg child stands at the end of the boat closest to t
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

  13.695 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The assumption made here is that the boat/water interface is essentially frictionless, so that the center of mass of the system remains in the same place as the occupant of the boat moves around.

__

We can find the sum of the moments of boat and child about the pier end:

  (46 kg)(7.6 m) + (80 kg)((7.6 +9.6/2) m) = 1341.6 kg·m

After the child moves, the center of mass of boat and child is presumed to remain in the same place. If x is the new distance from the pier to the child, the sum of moments is now ...

  46x +80(x-4.8)* = 1341.6

  126x -384 = 1341.6

  x = (1341.6 +384)/126 = 13 73/105 ≈ 13.695 . . . meters

The child is about 13.695 meters from the pier when she reaches the far end of the boat.

_____

* The center of mass of the boat alone is half its length closer to the pier than is the child, so is located at x-4.8 meters.

What is the exact value of 11.68 - 0.48 ÷ (-1.6) =
Ann [662]

Answer:

11.93

Step-by-step explanation:

Order of Operations rules require that we do the division first:

-0.48      48

-------- = --------- = 0.3

-1.6        1600

Then we combine 11.68 ad 0.3, obtaining 11.93.
