916...the 9 is in the hundreds place so its value is 900
791...the 9 is in the tens place so its value is 90
900/90 = 10
so the 9 in 916 is 10 times bigger then the 9 in 791
The bar should be 8 1/24 from the each edge of the door.
We need to subtract 10 1/4 from 26 1/3 to get the fraction of the space not covered by the towel bar.
We also need to divide the difference by 2 because we placed the towel bar in the center of the door.
1st we need to convert the mixed fractions into fractions to perform subtraction.
26 1/3 = ((26*3)+1)/3 = 79/3
10 1/4 = ((10*4)+1)/4 = 41/4
Steps in Subtracting Fractions
Step 1. Make sure the denominator is the same. 3 and 4 are the denominators, they are not the same but they are factor of 12. So,
79/3 must be multiplied by 4 = 79 * 4 / 3 * 4 = 316 / 12
41/4 must be multiplied by 3 = 41 * 3 / 4 * 3 = 123 / 12
Step 2. Subtract the numerators and place them above the common denominator
316/12 - 123/12 = 316 - 123 / 12 = 193 / 12
Before we can simplify the fraction, we must divide it by two to get the measurement of each edge of the door.
Steps in dividing fractions.
Step 1. Get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
1st fraction : 193 / 12
2nd fraction : 2 /1 ⇒ reciprocal 1/2
Step 2. Multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction
193 / 12 * 1/2 = 193 * 1 / 12 * 2 = 193 / 24
Step 3. Simplify the fraction.
193 / 24 = 8 1/24
Answer:
what's the question here ?
P = the original price of the ticket.
Let x = the discounted price.
The discounted price IS $12.95 less than the original price. Therefore
x = p - 12.95
Add 12.95 to each side.
p = x + 12.95
Answer:
The equation is
p = x + 12.95
where
p = original price
x = discounted price
Answer:
Part A: one solution:
Part B: x = 3, y = 4.
Explanation:
1) Part A: how many solutions does the pair of equations for lines A and B have?
The solution of a system of equations in a graph is given by the intersetion of the curves that represent the equations.
In this case, there are two straight lines, which intersect in one and only one point.
Hence, the system has one solution.
2) Part B: what is the solution to the equations of lines A and B?
The solution is the pair of coordinates of the intersection point. It is (3, 4).
Therefore, the solution is x = 3, y = 4.
