Mathematics

matrenka [14]2 years ago

Answer: 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can change all the fractions to have equivalent denominators.

The Least Common Denominator of 1 1/4 and 3/8 is 8. Now we can change the fractions.

1 1/4 = 1 2/8 = 10/8.

3/8 = 3/8.

Now we can subtract. Subtract the numerators of the first fraction from the numerators of the second fraction, and the denominators oft he first fraction to the denominators of the second fraction.

10/8 - 3/8 = 7/8.

Therefore, 1 1/4 - 3/8 = 7/8; the fourth answer.

Here you're being asked to find the "perimeter" of the space, even tho' the problem doesn't specifically ask for it.

The formula for P is P = 2W + 2L.

Here the width, W, is 3 1/2 yds, and the length, L, is 4 2/3 yds. Subbing these two values into the formula for P (above) results in:

P = 2(3 1/2 yds) + 2(4 2/3 yds)

= 7 yds + 9 1/3 yds = 16 1/3 yds, total.

Is the m in mx+b=y the growth
Shalnov [3]

The "m" in y = mx + b is the <u>slope.</u>

It is the number of units a point goes up, down, left, or right each time. Making the line linear/straight.

m = \frac{rise}{run}

"rise" is the the number of units you go up(+) or down(-), "run" is the number of units you go to the right


For example, if your slope is:

\frac{1}{2}

You are going up 1 unit, and to the right 2 units


3 or \frac{3}{1}

You are going up 3 units, and to the right 1 unit


-\frac{1}{2}

You are going down one unit, and to the right 2 units


-3 or -\frac{3}{1}

You are going down 3 units, and to the right 1 unit

Hi I’ll appreciate it if you help me!

The answer would be 30in.
Reasoning: if the two figures are proportional, you would set it up in a proportion. It would be 36/x=12/10. Then cross multiply, so it would be 12x and 36(10). Afterwords you’ll have 12x=360, then divide both sides by 12 and you’ll end up with 30.
