Add the gain and the last weight together
new weight = 6 3/4 + 1 1/2
or we can write it as
new weight = 6 + 3/4 + 1 + 1/2

Separate whole numbers and fraction
new weight = 6 + 3/4 + 1 + 1/2
new weight = 6 + 1 + 3/4 + 1/2

Simplify the whole numbers
new weight = 6 + 1 + 3/4 + 1/2
new weight = 7 + 3/4 + 1/2

Equalize the denominators of the fraction
new weight = 7 + 3/4 + 1/2
new weight = 7 + 3/4 + 2/4
new weight = 7 + 5/4

Because 5/4 is improper fraction, change it to mixed fraction
new weight = 7 + 5/4
new weight = 7 + 1 1/4
new weight = 7 + 1 + 1/4
new weight = 8 + 1/4
new weight = 8 1/4

The cat weights 8 1/4 pounds now

Solve by factoring: 2x2 - 5x - 12 = 0
Zepler [3.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

2 {x}^{2}  - 5x - 12

2 {x}^{2}   - 8x  + 3x - 12

2x(x - 4) + 3(x - 4)

2x  + 3 = 0 \:  \: x - 4 = 0

x =  \frac{ - 3}{2}  \:  \: x =4
