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.

The graph of which function will have a maximum and a y-intercept of 4?
rosijanka [135]
The y-intercept of the equation is the value of the variable y or in this case, f(x), when x is equated to zero. Out of all the choices presented in this item, if x is equated to zero, the first two terms will be equal to zero, leaving the third term only for the numerical value of f(x). 

From the choices presented, the answer would be f(x) = -x2 + 2x + 4. Thus, the answer is the third choice, C.

Which is the approximate measure of this angle A. 30 b. 90 c 120 d 180
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Answer is A. 30 degree

as we know that two prependicular lines have 90 degree angle between them

and similarly a horizontal line has angle zero degree.

the angle of pic shown is approximately 30 degree as it lies between prependicular and horizontal nature of lines

but as we can see that it is close to horizontal nature of the line that's why its approximate angle is 30 degree.
