Mathematics

lions [1.4K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

1\frac{5}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Eliminating a negative and changing our operation

1\frac{5}{6} +3\frac{1}{4}

Rewriting our equation with parts separated

-1-\frac{5}{6} +3+\frac{1}{4}

Solving the whole number parts

-1+3=2

Solving the fraction parts

-\frac{5}{6} +\frac{1}{4} =[?]

Find the LCD of 5/6 and 1/4 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.

LCD = 12

-\frac{10}{12} +\frac{3}{12}=-\frac{7}{12}

Combining the whole and fraction parts

2-\frac{7}{12} =1\frac{5}{12}

Dennis decided he wanted to go to the carnival. The carnival charges $6.00 for entry and $1.50 for each ride.
myrzilka [38]

We want to create a linear equation to model the given situation.

A) c(r) = $6.00 + $1.50*r

B) 19 rides.

We know that the carnival charges $6.00 for entry plus $1.50 for each ride.

A) With the given information we can see that if you ride for r rides, then the cost equation will be:

c(r) = $6.00 + $1.50*r

Where c(r) is the cost for going to the carnival and doing r rides.

B) If you have $35.00, then we can solve:

c(r) = $35.00 =  $6.00 + $1.50*r

Now we can solve the equation for r.

$35.00 =  $6.00 + $1.50*r

$35.00 -  $6.00 = $1.50*r

$29.00 = $1.50*r

$29.00/$1.50 = r = 19.33

Rounding to the next whole number we get: r = 19

This means that with $35.00, Dennis could go to 19 rides.

21-7x=7(3-x)<br> Solve this please!!!!!!!!!!
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

All real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

21 - 7x = 7(3 - x)

21 - 7x = 21 - 7x

Since both sides of the equation are equal, the answer is all real numbers.

A tank weighs 5.6kg when it 1/4 filled with water.If it weighs 10.4kg when it is full ,what will be it's weight when it is empty
Schach [20]

Answer:

4 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

so 1.6 * 4 is 6.4 so you just double check if you want

4 + 1.6 which is 1/4 of 6.4 will be 5.6 (matches with the question)

4 + (1.6*4) (indicates it's full) = 10.4( also Matches with the question)

there is another way by setting up an equation. let me know in comments if you want to see it that way
