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

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

Answer:

-\frac{1}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{3}{4} *\frac{4}{9} =\frac{1}{3}

\frac{1}{3} -\frac{1}{2}=-\frac{1}{6}

Stells [14]
64=2^6, 72=2^3*3^2

gcd (64,72)=8
Therefore 64/8 =8
72/8=9
gcd (8,9) =1
8,9 are relatively prime.
Thus, 64/72=8/9

Which of the following is the best estimate for 31% of 9? *GIVING 99 Points!*
Marina CMI [18]
Hello! So, when you know your fractions and percents, you know that about 33% equals 1/3. 31 is close to 33, so the best estimate for 31% of 9 is 3. When you solve it on a calculator, 9 * 31% (0.31) is 2.79, which rounds off to 3 when rounded to the nearest whole number. The answer is B: 3.

Given four functions, which one will have the highest y-intercept?
beks73 [17]
<span>The y-intercept of a function is given by the initial value of a function. It is the value of the function when x = 0.

Given the functions

A. Blake is tracking his savings account with an interest rate of 5% and a original deposit of $6.
The y-intercept for this function is the initial deposit which is $6.

B.
x    g(x)
0    6
1    2
2   10

The y-intersept for this function is 6 which isthe value of the function g(x) when x = 0.


C. The function h of x equals 4 to the x power, plus 3
When x = 0, h(x)=4^0+3=1+3=4
Thus the y-intecept is 4.

D. j(x) = 10(2)^x
when x = 0, j(x)=10(2)^0=10(1)=10
Thus, the y-intercept is 10.

Thereforen the function with the highest y-intercept is j(x)=10(2)^x which has a y-intercept of 10.
