There would have been 3.25 or 3 1/4 pounds of candy eaten.
you would do 5 1/2 - 2 1/4 and get 3 1/4 .

Answer:
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The least common multiple of 6, 8, and 3 is 24. That will be the common denominator:
1/6 +5/8 -2/3
= 4/24 +15/24 -16/24
= (4 +15 -16)/24 = 3/24
= 1/8
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
You can take advantage of the commutative property of addition and the distributive property to rewrite the problem as ...
5/8 -(2/3 -1/6)
= 5/8 - (4/6 -1/6) . . . . use a common denominator of 6
= 5/8 -3/6
= 5/8 =1/2 . . . . . . . simplify
= 5/8 -4/8 . . . . . . use a common denominator of 8
= 1/8
There is more than one solution because there are two different numbers whose square is 9. One of them is +3. The other is -3.
The fundamental theorem of algebra says every non-zero single-variable polynomial of degree N has exactly N roots, counting multiplicity. Your polynomial is degree 2, so has 2 roots.
Answer: 2xy
Step-by-step explanation: 2xy is the answer bra
Answer: 
This is the same as writing y = (1/2)x + 3
========================================================
Explanation:
Two points on the blue line are (0,3) and (2,4)
To go from the left point to the right, we go up 1 and over to the right 2.
Slope = rise/run = 1/2
Or we can use the slope formula to get the same value
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (4-3)/(2-0)
m = 1/2
The y intercept is b = 3 because this is the location on the vertical y axis where the blue line crosses. This is the location (0,3).
With m = 1/2 and b = 3, we go from y = mx+b to y = (1/2)x + 3
On a piece of paper, that would look like the equation
