Answer:
A) 2 5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
The word <u>MORE </u>refers to subtraction. If you know how to calculate fractions. Great! You should know what 2 3/4 - 1/3 equals. But if you do not:
You can use a regular calculator. Just convert everything to decimals. ( "/" means divide)
3/4 (3÷4) = 0.75 (dont forget the 2 since is has 2 3/4) so 2.75.
1/3 (1÷3) = 0.33<u>3 </u>(underline or overline (above the number) means that number repeats. if you are using a calculator. just max the numbers out till you can put it anymore.
2.75 - 0.<u>3</u> = 2.41<u>6</u>. Now you dont know what that 416 is so just subtract the answers until it matches.
B) 1 ÷ 12 = 0.8<u>3. </u> well it isnt 416 so that isnt right.
4 ÷ 7 = 0.571... (... means a bunch of numbers that go on and on.) again that isnt correct. Now lets try A):
5 ÷ 12 = 0.41<u>6</u>!
Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
Given;
f ( x ) = x² + 2x - 1
g ( x ) = 3x - 2
To verify:

LHS:

~ Insert "2" instead of "x".

Simplify it;

Therefore; (f/g)(2) = 7/4.
RHS:

~Insert "2" instead of"x".

Simplify it.

Therefore, f(2)/g(2) = 7/4.
Since (f/g)(2) = f(2)/g(2) = 7/4.

Let's create expressions and equations to model this situation. Let Anthony's age be a.
"Jim is 3 times as old as his cousin, Anthony." Jim's age is 3a.
"The difference in their age is 18." 3a - a = 18
How old is Jim?
Let's solve the above equation for a to first find Anthony's age.
3a - a = 18
2a = 18
a = 9
Remember, Jim's age is represented by the expression 3a. Substitute Anthony's age, 9, into the expression to find Jim's age.
3a
3(9)
27
Answer:
Jim is 27 years old.
