Because 3 2/4 would be the answer when you subtract it and most teachers and/or tests want you to simplify the answer which would be 1/2 because you would divide the numerator and denominator by 2.
Answer:
55,7425
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 60 minutes in one degree and 3600 seconds in one degree, the formula is:
Decimal degrees = Degrees + (Minutes/60) + (Seconds/3600)
Here Degrees stay the same 55;
44' = 44/60 ≈ 0,733...
33" = 33/3600 ≈ 0,009166...
I've divided and added those three numbers by calculator in one operation and it shows exactly 55,7425. If you add them separately, you'll need to round the result.
let's recall the graph of sin(x), is simply a sinusoidal line waving about, but its midline is at the x-axis, namely y = 0.
this equation is simply a transformation of it, the 1/2 changes the amplitude by half, midline stays the same though, the +3, moves the whole thing upwards, a vertical shift of 3, meaning the midline went from 0 to 3, y = 3.
10 3/4
10 x 4 = 40
40 + 3 = 43
43/4 is your answer
Hope this helps
If those lines are absolute value then the answer is 0 if they are supposed to be parenthesis then the answer is -6
