12. An equation is shown. 8 1/2 - 3 1/? = 5 3/12 What is the value of the missing number?

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

$8\frac{1}{2}-3\frac{1}{?}=5\frac{3}{12}$

These are mixed number given.

Suppose the complete mixed number of second place is x.

Converting mixed numbers into fractions.

$\frac{17}{2}-x=\frac{63}{12}$

Adding x in both sides

$\frac{17}{2}=x+\frac{63}{12}$

$x=\frac{17}{2}-\frac{63}{12}$

Making common denominator

$x=\frac{102}{12}-\frac{63}{12}$

$x=\frac{39}{12}$

$x=\frac{13}{4}$

In mixed number form:

$x=3\frac{1}{4}$

So comparing with given equation, the '?' sign will be equal to 4.

Hence the answer is 4 : Answer

Hope it will help :)

darren has 3/4 of a gallon of soil.he needs to plant 5 small plants.if he splits the soil evenly between the plants.how much soi

nika2105 [10]

Number of plants = 5

Amount of soil present for 5 plants = 3/4 gallons

Now here we have to find how much soil will each plant get.

So we have to apply unitary method here to find how much would each plant get the share of soil.

Soil required by 5 plants = 3/4 gallons

Soil required by 1 plant = 3/4 divided by 5 = 3/20 gallons

Answer: Each plant will get 3/20 gallons of soil.

A radio is being discounted 40%. If the sale price of the radio is $31.02, what was the original price of the radio?

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

$51.70 is the original price

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Turn 40% into a decimal which makes it 0.40

ex. 50% would be 0.50, 5% would be 0.05 etc.

Step 2:

Put the numbers into this formula: Original Price (x) - Percent Off times Original Price = Sales Price

x - 0.40x = 31.02 this is basically 1x - 0.40x = 31.02 so,

Solving the left side of our equation gives us 1x - 0.40x = 0.60x

so now you have: 0.60x = 31.02

Step 3:

Divide both sides by 0.60 which gets x by itself and gives us the original price which is $51.70

Find the first five terms of the recursive sequence an=-6an-1 where a1=4.5

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

4.5, -27, 162,-972, 5832

Step-by-step explanation:

The given recursive definition is,

$a_n=-6a_{n-1}, a_1=4.5$

This will form a geometric sequence with first term 4.5 and common ratio r=-6.

When n=2, we have:

$a_2=-6a_1 \\ \implies \: a_2=-6 \times 4.5 = - 27$

When n=3, we get:

$a_3=-6a_2 \\ \implies \: a_3=-6 \times - 27 = 162$

When n=4, we get:

$a_4=-6a_3 \\ \implies \: a_4=-6 \times 162 = - 972$

When n=5, we get:

$a_5=-6a_4 \\ \implies \: a_5=-6 \times - 972 = 5832$

Therefore the first five terms are:

4.5, -27, 162,-972, 5832
