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.

Raju bought seven notebooks of two hundred pages and five of hundred pages, for 107 rupees. Joseph bought five notebooks of two

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Large books = 11

Small books = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 5y = 107

7x = 107 - 5y

x = 107/7 - 5y/7

5x + 7y = 97

5 (107/7 - 5y/7) + 7y = 97

535/7 - 25y/7 + 7y = 97

535/7 + 24y/7 = 97

535 + 24y = 679

24y = 679 - 535

y = 144/24 = 6: So x =

7x + 5(6) = 107

7x = 107-30

x = 77-7 = 11

For the inverse variation equation p=8/V<br> what is the value of Vwhen p=1/2?

NISA [10]

Answer:

v = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

p = 8/v and p = 1/2. Equating these two, we get 8/v = 1/2.

Inverting both sides, we get v/8 = 2.

Find the vaue of v by multiplying both sides by 8: v = 16
