First you have to make your denominators the same. You have 5 and 7 as your denominators. 5 x 7 = 35 So we can use 35 as the common denominator. So you have

1/5 = 7/35

<u>1/7 = 5/35  </u>   now you can subtract

         2/35

Hope that I was able to help you. :-)

Convert the fractions so they both have the same denominator (bottom part of the fraction)

1/5 = 7/35

This is because 5*7=35, so 1*7=7

1/7 = 5/35

This is because 7*5=35, so 1*5 =5

Then subtract the top numbers to get the answer:

\frac{7}{35}-\frac{5}{35} = \frac{2}{35}

Please help! What is the function for the graph
Evgen [1.6K]

When x = 0 the value of the function is 2 so its either A or B.

When x = 1, y = 8 so substituting these values in A we get:-

8 = 2 * 8^1 = 16 so

its Not A. Try B:-

8 = 2 *4^1 = 8 which fits

Answer is choice B

Zaid and Matias, two farmers, constructed a 792 foot fence around their very large garden. Zaid agreed to construct 20% more of
likoan [24]

Answer:

1.2x +x =792

2.2x =792

And we got finally:

x =\frac{792}{2.2}= 360 ft

And the amount for Zaid would be 1.2*360 ft= 432ft

So then Zaid construc 432 ft and Matias 360 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know that Zaid and Matias, two farmers, constructed a 792 foot fence around their very large garden so then the total is represented by 792 ft

We also know that Zaid agreed to construct 20% more of the fence than Matias did. Let's assume that the amount that construct by Matias was x then the amount constructed by Zaid would be 1.2 x representing 20% more than Matias and we can set up the following equation:

1.2x +x =792

2.2x =792

And we got finally:

x =\frac{792}{2.2}= 360 ft

And the amount for Zaid would be 1.2*360 ft= 432ft

So then Zaid construc 432 ft and Matias 360 ft

In how many ways can you choose 2 side dishes out of 8
Alina [70]
The first choice can be any one of the 8 side dishes.
               For each of these . . .
The 2nd choice can be any one of the remaining 7.

     Total number of ways to pick 2 out of 8 = (8 x 7) = 56 ways .

BUT ...

That doesn't mean you can get 56 different sets of 2 side dishes.

For each different pair, there are 2 ways to choose them . . .
(first A then B), and (first B then A).  Either way, you wind up with (A and B).

So yes, there are 56 different 'WAYS' to choose 2 out of 8.
But there are only 28 different possible results, and 2 'ways'
to get each result.
