Answer:

7 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

−31÷−25=?Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal (inverse) of the second fraction.

Take the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping the numerator and denominator, leaving the negative sign on the numerator, and changing the operation to multiplication. Then the equation becomes

−3/1×−5/2=?

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

−3×−5=15

-----------

1×2=2

This fraction cannot be reduced.

The fraction

15/2

is the same as

15÷2

Convert to a mixed number using long division for 15÷2 = 7R1, so

15/2=7 1/2Therefore:

−3/1÷−2/5=7 1/2

(255)/(6)*(672)/(9)+(37)/(9) <br> How do you work this out step by step??
koban [17]
Step 1. Type it into a Google search box or calculator. (You need to use a calculator anyway.) The result is 3177 4/9.

If you're doing this according to the Order of Operations, you do the multiplication and division left to right. This means the first calculation you do is
  255/6 = 42.5
Next, you multiply by 672
  42.5*672 = 28560
Then divide by 9
  28560/9 = 3173 3/9

You continue by doing the division
  37/9 = 4 1/9

And finish by adding the two results
  3173 3/9 + 4 1/9 = 3174 4/9

_____
If you're doing this by hand, you can recognize the first term as the product of two fractions, so is the product of numerators divided by the product of denominators.
  (255*672)/(6*9)
Using your knowledge of divisibility rules, you can do the division 672/6 to simplify this to
  (255*112)/9
Now, the first term and the second term have the same denominator, so you can add the numerators before you do the division.
  (255*112 + 37)/9 = (28560 + 37)/9 = 28597/9
You end up having to do only two simple divisions, rather than 3 of them.
  28597/9 = 3177 4/9

What is the equation of the line?
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

A) y = -1/2x + 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the y-intercept(when x = 0), which is 1/2.

Find the slope: m = y2-y1 / x2-x1

I used points: (3, -1), (-3,2)

m = 2 - (-1) / -3 - 3

m = 3 / - 6

m = -1/2

plug this into the slope intercept form equation: y = mx + b

y = -1/2x + 1/2

Which product has 4 zeros after the digit 3? 0.03 times 10 with the power of 5. 0.3 times 10 with the power of 4 0.03 times 10 w
sweet [91]

Answer:

0.3 * 10^5

Step-by-step explanation:

0.3

 ^ You need to move the three before the decimal place and leave 4 empty digits (0) between

0.3

3.0

30.0

300.0

3000.0

30000.0

A total of 5 moves.

Each move is equivalent to x, the preceding value, times 10. x * 10

Repeated multiplication times the same factor equates to exponentiation, so for a total of 5 moves, it is notated as 10^5, giving you an expression of:

0.3 * 10^5
