Given is a sculpture that is built up of metal and wood, and the weight of this sculpture is 14.9 kilograms.
It says that three-fourth of the total weight is metal and says to find the weight of wooden part.
We can find the weight of metal part and then subtract it from the total weight to calculate the answer.
Total weight = 14.9 kilograms.
Metal part = three-fourth of total weight = 
Wooden part = 14.9 - 11.175 = 3.725 kilograms.
Hence, the wooden part is 3.725 kilograms.
Answer: - (2 + 3) = -5
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
When combining numbers that have the same sign, you add them and then include the sign.
For example:
-2 - 3 = -(2 + 3) = -5
-6 - 5 = -(6 + 5) = -11
-7 - 8 = -(7 + 8) = -15
Answer:
y = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
We can solve for y by isolating it.
<h3>Solve for y</h3>
- 3y - 15 = y + 1
- 3y - 15 - y = y +1 - y
- 2y - 15 = 1
- 2y - 15 + 15 = 1 + 15
- 2y = 16
- y = 16/2
- y = 8
The value of y is 8.
Distance traveled in the first hour = 50 miles
Distance traveled in the second hour = 72 miles
Distance traveled in the third hour = 46 miles
Total distance = 50 + 72 + 46 = 168 miles
23 miles = 1 gallon
168 ÷ 23 = 7.30 gallons (nearest hundredth)
Answer: 7.30 gallons
