Answer:

-5\dfrac{31}{40}

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert to improper fractions:

1\dfrac{1}{10}-6\dfrac78=\dfrac{1 \times10+1}{10}-\dfrac{6 \times8+7}{8}=\dfrac{11}{10}-\dfrac{55}{8}

Make denominators the same:

\dfrac{11}{10}-\dfrac{55}{8}=\dfrac{11\times8}{10\times8}-\dfrac{55\times10}{8\times10}=\dfrac{88}{80}-\dfrac{550}{80}

Therefore,

\dfrac{88}{80}-\dfrac{550}{80}=\dfrac{88-550}{80}=-\dfrac{462}{80}=-\dfrac{231}{40}

Convert to mixed number:

-\dfrac{231}{40}=-5\dfrac{31}{40}

30% of number A is 10 more than 20% of number B. 30% of number B is 35 more than 20% of number A. Find the numbers A and B.
anygoal [31]

Answer:

A = 76.85

B =65.28

Step-by-step explanation:

(30/100)A = 10 + (20/100)B

0.3A - 0.2B = 10 ...... equation (i)

(30/100)B + 35 = (20/100)A

0.2A - 0.3B = 35 ........ equation (ii)

From equation (i)

0.3A = 10 - 0.2B

A = (10 - 0.2b) / 0.3

A = 33.33 - 0.67B ........equation (iii)

Put equation (iii) into equation (ii)

0.2(33.33 - 0.67B) - 0.3B = 35

6.67 - 0.134B - 0.3B = 35

0.434B = 35 - 6.67

B = 28.33 / 0.434

B = 65. 275 = 65.28

Put B = 65.28 into equation (i)

0.3A - 0.2B = 10

0.3A - 0.2(65.28) = 10

0.3A - 13.056 = 10

0.3A = 10 + 13.056

A = 23.056/ 0.3

A = 76.85

Aloiza [94]

Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown below.

Calculate the volume of the empty cone.

V₁ = (1/3)π*(6 in)²*(10 in) = 120π in³

Calculate the volume of the sphere.

V₂ = (4/3)π*(1.5 in)³ = 4.5π in³

The volume that can be filled with flavored ice is

V = V₁ - V₂ = 115.5π in³ = 362.85 in³

Answer:

The volume is 115.5π in³ or 362.9 in³ (nearest tenth)

A cyclist bikes x distance at 10miles per hour and returns over the same path at 8miles per hour .what is the cyclists average r
algol [13]
Average speed = total distance travelled / time taken
 in this case total distance = 2x miles

time taken for first half of the journey = x/10 hours and for second part its x / 8  hours

average speed = 2x / ( x/10 + x/8)  = 2 x /  (  4x + 5x / 40)
=  2x  * 40 / 9x =  80 / 9  mph 8.89 mph
