Answer:
1 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
2 5/8
+1 7/8= 4 1/2
- 7=3+4
- 5+3=8
- 2 5/8 + 3/8= 3
- 3 + 1= 4
- 4 + 4/8= 4 4/8
- 4 4/8 = 4 1/2
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Numbers that come out of the absolute values are always positive.
|6 - 4| -|3 - 8| =
| 2| - | -5| =
2 - 5 =
-3
So you convert the fraction into a decimal then multiply it by 100 so the percentage would be 180%
Answer: x = -2
Step-by-Step Explanation:
Since the two expressions both equal y, you can set them equal to each other.
2x-1 = 3x+1
Subtract 2x from both sides.
-1 = x+1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-2 = x
The answer is: " 40 books " .

Explanation:
____________________________________________
Let "x" equal the number of books that Jill started with. Solve for "x" :
____________________________________________
x – (1/2)x + 16 = 36 ;
1x – (1/2)) = (1/2)x ;
(1/2)x + 16 = 36 ;
Subtract "16" from EACH SIDE of the equation:
(1/2)x + 16 – 16 = 36 – 16 ;
(1/2)x = 20 ;
Multiply each side of the equation by "2" ;
2*(1/2)x = 20 * 2 ;
to get: x = 40 .
