What is 1 2/3 - (- 5 2/3)?

Mathematics

Answer:

7.3333333

Step-by-step explanation:

1 2/3 - (- 5 2/3) = 22/3 = 7 1/3= 7.3333333


detailed:
Conversion a mixed number 1 2/3

to a improper fraction: 1 2/3 = 1 2/3 = 1 · 3 + 2/3 = 3 + 2/3 = 5/3

To find a new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 1 by the denominator 3. Whole number 1 equally 1 * 3/3 = 3/3

b) Add the answer from previous step 3 to the numerator 2. New numerator is 3 + 2 = 5

c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 5) over the denominator 3.

One and two thirds is five thirds

Conversion a mixed number -5 2/3

to a improper fraction: -5 2/3 = -5 2/3 = -5 · 3 + (-2)/3 = -15 + (-2)/3 = -17/3

To find a new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number -5 by the denominator 3. Whole number -5 equally -5 * 3/3 = -15/3

b) Add the answer from previous step -15 to the numerator 2. New numerator is -15 + 2 = -13

c) Write a previous answer (new numerator -13) over the denominator 3.

Minus five and two thirds is minus thirteen thirds

Subtract: 5/3 - (-17/3) = 5 - (-17)/3 = 22/3

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(3, 3) = 3. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 3 × 3 = 9. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - five thirds minus minus seventeen thirds = twenty-two thirds.

Graph the line that is parallel to y = 3x - 7 that passes through the point (2, 1)
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

y = 3x - 5

y = 3x - 7

y = 3x + b

1 = 3(2) + b

1 = 6 + b

-5 = b

y = 3x - 5

It is a solid shape that contains lateral surface and two circular bases which are parallel and congruent.
ad-work [718]

Answer:

B (cylinder)

Step-by-step explanation:

Two <u>circular</u> bases which are parallel and congruent :

This basically means that the shape contains a circular base (supposedly the bottom), but since it has two bases, its on the top and the bottom. Because it's congruent, the bases are both equal in shape and size. It is also parallel as well, in which the bases have the same distance between them.

The cube doesn't have any circular bases.

The sphere doesn't have any faces, nor edges.

A cone has a circular base, but it doesn't have two.

A cylinder has two circular bases, as well as they are parallel and congruent.

So, your answer is B (cylinder).

Hope this helped !
