Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

IF 17 is in base 10

THEN

17₁₀ = 1 x 10¹ + 7 x 10⁰

10001₂ = 1 x 2⁴ + 0 x 2³ + 0 x 2² + 0 x 2¹ + 1 x 2⁰

32₅ = 3 x 5¹ + 2 x 5⁰

The distance, y, in miles, traveled by a car for a certain amount of time, x, in hours, is shown in the graph below:

Kazeer [188]

Answer: The correct answer is the last choice.

In the first segment of the trip, the car goes from 0 to 2 hours and the line is moving up. Therefore, it traveled for 2 hours.

In the second segment, the line went straight horizontal for 1 hour. That means the distance didn't change, in other words it didn't move.

In the last segment, it moved up again for 2 hours.

Ella grew 3 over 4 of an inch last year. Ben grew 2 over 3 of an inch last year. How much more did Ella grow than Ben last year?

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Ella grew $\frac{1}{12}$ of an inch more

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, you want to subtract Ben's growth from Ella's.

This expression would be $\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{2}{3}$ .

To work these out, they must have the same denominator (which should be the lowest common multiple or LCM).

In this case, the LCM is 12, so you want to multiply each side so the denominator is 12. This means the first fraction should be multiplied by $\frac{3}{3}$ and the second by $\frac{4}{4}$ .
