What is -1/2 + (3/4 x 4/9)

Mathematics

fredd [130]3 years ago

Answer:

-1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the PEMDAS rule, we start with the equation in the parentheses (3/4 x 4/9). 3 X 4 is 12 and 4 X 9 is 36, so the answer is 12/36. You can simplify this to 1/3. -1/2 plus 1/3 can also be written as 1/3 - 1/2. Next you will want to set the denominators equal to each other. In this case, I'll set them both equal to 6.

3 x 2 is 6, and 1 x 2 is 2, turning 1/3 into 2/6.

2 x 3 is 6 and 1 x 3 is 3, turning 1/2 to 3/6.

2/6 - 3/6 equals -1/6

Find the following dates in the units given:
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer and step-by-step explanation:

a.  4 litres in 5 minutes (litres per minute)

4 litres per 5 minutes means 4/5 litres per 1 min = 0.8 litres per minutes

b. 12 litres in 45 minutes = 12/3 litres in 45/3 minutes = 4 litres per 15 minutes

60 minutes = 4*15 minutes

4 * 4 = 16 litres per hour

c. 800 kilowatt hours in 2 months

1 year = 12 months = 2*6 months

kilowatt per year = 800 * 6 = 4800 kilowatt per year

Mulder and Scully are driving to the same town. Mulder leaves the office at 9​:30a.m. averaging 57mph. Scully leaves at 10​:00​a
koban [17]

Answer:

Scully will catch up with Mulder by 7:30 PM.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Mulder leaves the office at 9​:30a.m. averaging 57mph.

Scully leaves at 10​:00​a.m., following the same path and averaging 60 mph.

Distance covered by Mulder between 9:30 AM and 10:00 AM:

\frac{57}{2}= 28.5 miles

Let t is the time taken by Scully to catch up with​ Mulder.

After leaving office Scully needs to cover extra distance of 28.5 miles because Mulder leaves the office earlier.

Therefore total distance cover by them is:

28.5+57t=60t

28.5=60t-57t

28.5=3t\\t=9.5

Hence, it would take 9 hours 30 minutes to catch up Mulder.

10 am + 9 hours 30 minutes = 7:30 pm

Therefore, Scully will catch up with Mulder by 7:30 PM.
