What is 2 fifths plus 3 tenths

Mathematics

The answer is 7 tenths.

One fifth is equal to two tenths.

So in that case 2 fifths is a total of 4 tenths.

4 tenths plus 3 tenths is 7 tenths. Or you can say 3 fifths plus 1 tenth.

Hope this helps you!

To add fractions, you have to find a common denominator.

2/5 + 3/10 So change the 2/5 to 4/10

4/10 + 3/10 You get 7/10, which can't be simplified.

5/8 ≠ (3/4 + 1/16) because 5/8 < 3/4 EXPLAIN THIS PROBLEM AND WHAT IT MEANS

balu736 [363]

5/8 = 3/4+1/16 is false because, the final values compared on each side of equation is not the same

- 5/8 = 0.625
- 3/4+1/16 = 0.8125

0.625 = 0.8125, it is not equal but less than

Given the graph above find an equation for the graph and write your anwser in slope intercept form

lys-0071 [83]

Given:

Given that the graph of a linear function.

We need to determine the equation of the graph in slope intercept form.

Slope:

Consider any two coordinates from the equation of the line to determine the slope.

Let the two coordinates are (-4,3) and (4,-1)

The slope can be determined using the formula,

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Substituting the coordinates in the above formula, we get;

$m=\frac{-1-3}{4+4}$

$m=\frac{-4}{8}$

$m=-\frac{1}{2}$

Thus, the slope of the equation is $m=-\frac{1}{2}$

Value of y - intercept:

The value of y - intercept is the value of y when x = 0.

Hence, from the graph, it is obvious that the value of y when x = 0 is 1.

Hence, the value of y - intercept is 1.

Thus, y - intercept is $b=1$

Equation of the line:

The equation of the line can be determined using the formula,

$y=mx+b$

Substituting the slope $m=-\frac{1}{2}$ and the y - intercept $b=1$

Thus, we get;

$y=-\frac{1}{2}x+1$

Thus, the equation of the line is $y=-\frac{1}{2}x+1$

Mei Mei invested $1700 in an account that pays 3% interest compounded annually.

algol [13]

Answer:

$2728

Step-by-step explanation:

Use compound interest formula:

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

P = 1700, r = 0.03, n = 1, t = 16

Plug in numbers:

$A = 1700(1 + \frac{0.03}{1})^{(1)(16)}$

Simplify:

$A = 1700(1.3)^{16$

Use calculator:

$A = 2728$

What two facts can you double to find 8x4? explain

almond37 [142]

2x4 + 2x2 = 32 because 2x4 equals 8 and then if you do 2x2 it equals 4.
multiply the two answers and get the answer to 8x4 which is 32.
