Ok so this all about subtracting fractions this is what you want to do:
you can change 8 3/4 and 4 2/3 to have the same value and deominator
8 3/4 = 8 9/12(multiply both sides by 3)
4 2/3 = 4 8/12(multiply both sides by 4)
you do this because 12 is divisible by 3 and 4
then, subtract 4 8/12 from 8 9/12 because John is using some of the wood his dad gave him.
then subtract once again, taking 11/2 away from your difference.
again match the deominator of 11/2 to the deominator of your difference which should be 12. another divisible of 12 is 2 and 6.
11/2 = 66/12 = 5 6/12(multiply both the top and bottom by 6)
and start subtracting.
so John should have -1 5/12(?) wood left
Answer: 91
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The number of documentaries = 5
The number of comedies = 7
The number of mysteries = 4
The number of horror films =5
The total number of movies other than comedy = 14
Now, the number of possible combinations of 9 movies can he rent if he wants all 7 comedies is given by :-

Therefore, the number of possible combinations of 9 movies can he rent if he wants all 7 comedies is 91 .
Answer:
The equation has no solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
First, let´s write the equation:
(√x + 3) + 6 = 3
To solve the equation, let´s subtract 6 to both sides of the equation:
√x + 3 = -3
subtract 3 to both sides of the equation:
√x = -6 (the square root of any number can´t be negative, but let´s solve it anyway and then check the solution).
Square both sides of the equation:
x = 36
Now, let´s check the solution:
(√x + 3) + 6 = 3
x = 36
(√36 + 3) + 6 = 3
(6 + 3) + 6 = 3
9 + 6 = 3
15 ≠ 3
Then, the equation has no solution.
Have a nice day!
