You need to add two mixed numerals.
One is positive and one is negative.
To add a positive number and a negative number, first take the absolute value of both, making them both positive. Then subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value. Finally, the sign of the answer is the same sign as the number that has the larger absolute value.
The numbers are -4 5/8 and 2 1/8
Take absolute values:
|-4 5/8| = 4 5/8
|2 1/8| = 2 1/8
Subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value.
4 5/8 - 2 1/8 = 2 4/8 = 2 1/2
The greater absolute value is 4 5/8.
Since the number with the larger absolute value was -4 5/8, a negative number, the answer is negative, -2 1/2
-4 5/8 + 2 1/8 = - 2 1/2
Answer:
46% of 127 is 58.42
Step-by-step explanation:
46/100 = x/127
Cross multiply
46 × 127 = 100 × x
5,842 = 100x
Divide both sides by 100
58.42 = x
Answer:
y = 1/2 - 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
All we need to do is find the y-intercept of the line using the formula for slope intercept form [ y = mx + b ].
-3 = 1/2(-3) + b
-3 = -1.5 + b
-1.5 = b
We can put all the information we know/solved for into the formula.
y = 1/2 - 1.5
Best of Luck!
(11*5)+(4*10)=95
11+4=15
Both are equal to the constraints of the word problem and there for justified.
Answer:
270 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
If she drove 120 miles in 2 hours, that means she drives at 60 miles per hour. 4 hours and 30 minutes can be seen as 4.5, since 30 minutes is half an hour. So then you multiply 60 by 4.5 and get 270.
