Answer:

Read Below

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll give you the answers if you want but I'm going to explain how you can do this if you want to work it out yourself. First question we can since 1/8 would convert down 0.5/4 well covert it to 8ths. To do this we can use a proportion with the numbers as shown below

11 x

---- -

4. 8

You should get 22/8 and than can subtract 22/8 from 9/8 (1 1/8) to get 13/8 or 1 5/8 your answer.

For the second problem you can use the same proportion except changing it to 5ths where you will subtract 45/5 from 17/5 to get 28/5 aka 5 3/5.

This should help with most and there is a website called hackmath that why it is a silver it has good explanations.

Basically you need to make the denominator (whats on the bottom) the same, lets take the first one for example


2 3/4, lets put this all over 4 for the same denominator.

2=8/4, and then add this to 3/4 to get 11/4.

the second part will work the same way,

start by making 1 into 8/8. add this to 1/8 to get 9/8


now we have to add 11/4 and 9/8. to do this, you have to find the smallest multiple between the two (for example: between 6 and 4 it would be 12, since 4*3= 12, and 2*6=12)

now, the smallest common multiple between 4 and 8 would just be 8


11/4= 22/8, since you multiply the bottom and top by the same amount so it still equals 11/4, but your denominator will now be 8.


now you can subtract. 22/8- 9/8= 13/8


final answer: 13/8


try the rest yourself since this is important for later math, hoped this helped :)

For the set C= {6,8}, determine n(C).
nasty-shy [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey, there!!

C = {6,8}

n(C) means cardinality of set.

We define cardinality of set as the no. of elements present in set.

It contains 2 no. of elements.

so, its cardinality is n(C) is 2.

The given line passes through the points (-2,-4) and (2,2) What is the equation, in point-slope form, of the line that is parall
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

(y-1)=\frac{3}{2}(x+3)


Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope form of a line is (y-y_1)=m(x-x_1) where x_1=-3\\y_1=1. We write  

(y-1)=m(x--3)\\(y-1)=m(x+3)


Since the line is parallel to the line shown it will have the same slope. To find m, count the slope from each marked point on the graph. Count the rise then the run and create a fraction rise/run. The slope is 6/4 which simplifies to 3/2. Now substitute it for m.

(y-1)=\frac{3}{2}(x+3)
