What is 5/8+3/4? Explain step by step.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Monica [59]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

11/8 or 1 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

first you have to change the denominator to 8 in the 3/4, so that means you have to change the numerator too.

that gets you 6/8, so the new equation is

6/8+5/8

you only have to add the numerators, so it gives you 11/8.

to change it to a mixed number, all you have to do is find how many whole numbers (aka 8/8 in this situation) go into your improper fraction, and there is 1 in ours. you set that aside and you get 3/8 left over. You put those together and get 1 3/8

hope this helps! have a nice day!

Julli [10]

Answer:

y=45000(1-0.03)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the exponential decay formula is

y=c(1-r)^x

where c= starting amount

r=rate of change

x=time

so

y=45000(1-0.03)^x

y=45000-1350x

Solve the equation for y<br> Y minus 5 equals 1/3 (x plus 12)
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

ok so this problem you are basically just rearranging it. you're going to want y by itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

let's start with the original equation: 5-y=1/3x +12

so first you have to move the five over, so you subtract 5 from both sides. -y=1/3x+12-5

then you subtract the 5 from the twelve since they're like terms: -y=1/3x+7

and finally you have to move the negative over. when you move the negative think of it like dividing negative one from both sides, everything on the other side has to get the negative.

so we're left with y=-1/3x-7

I hope this helps!
