You plug in 2 for the w and do 17 minus 2 and then you divide that by 3 so ur answer is going to be 17-2 which is 15 and then divide 15 by 3 and you get 5

Got it! Here you go!

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems you already know that you need to do 17-2/3(not two thirds, just over 3.)

The horizontal line means divide, so you will be dividing by 3. First, though,, you do...

17-2(which is 15)

and then divide it by 3.

15/3=5

Your answer is 5.

I hope I helped! Have a great day.

A pitcher contains 40 fluid ounces of tea Shelby pour 3 cups of tea how many pints are left

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

1 pint of tea left in the pitcher.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pitcher contains 40 fluid ounces

1 cup = 8 fluid ounces

3 cups = 3*8 = 24 fluid ounces

After pouring tea in 3 cups,

tea left in pitcher = 40 - 24 = 16 fluid ounces

1 pint = 16 ounces

Therefore, 1 pint left.

What number can you add to π to get a rational number? PLEASE HELP thank you :P

Kryger [21]

Solution:

As we know π is an irrational number.The value of π is non terminating non repeating.

As we all know , π = $\frac{\text{Circumference of circle}}{\text{Diameter}}$ ,

The fact is still we are getting an irrational number.

As , 0 is a rational number.

So, The number which when added to π, to get a rational number is (-π).

Answer → π + (-π) = 0, i.e (-π) is that number.

Question 1:
For that point where all the lines intersect to be an incenter, the following must be true
4x - 1 = 6x - 5
Subtract both sides by 6x
-2x -1 = -5
Add both sides by 1
-2x = -4
Divide both sides by -2
x= 2

Question 2:
Plug in x=2 into any of the two equations.

You get 7.

Have an awesome day! :)

find the ratio which are the points p(X,2) divides the line segment joining the point a(12,5) and b(4,-3) also find X plz give a

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer: ratio a:b = 3:5 p(X, 2) = p(9, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Plot points a = (12, 5) and b = (4, -3) and draw a line segment from a to b.

Notice that when y = 2, X = 9 so point p = (9, 2) see graph

The distance from a to p = 3√2

The distance from b to p = 5√2

So the ratio of a:b = 3√2:5√2 = 3:5 when simplified

To find the distance, use the distance formula OR pythagorean theorem.
