Subtract 3 2/5 from 5 3/4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]-2\frac{7}{20}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

[tex]3\frac{2}{5} -5\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

To find the answer we first need to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions, find the common denominator, subtract the denominators, and of course convert the improper fraction back into a mixed number.

[tex]3\frac{2}{5} -5\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
[tex]3\frac{2}{5}=5\times3=15+2=17=\frac{17}{5}[/tex]
[tex]5\frac{3}{4} =4\times5=20+3=23=\frac{23}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{17}{5} -\frac{23}{4}[/tex]

Find the common denominator:
[tex]CD=20[/tex]
[tex]\frac{17}{5} \times4=\frac{68}{20}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{23}{4} \times5=\frac{115}{20}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{68}{20} -\frac{115}{20}[/tex]
[tex]68-115=-47=-\frac{47}{20}[/tex]
[tex]=-\frac{47}{20}[/tex]

Convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:
[tex]-\frac{48}{20}[/tex]
[tex]-\frac{47}{20} =47\div20=-2\frac{7}{20}[/tex]
[tex]=-2\frac{7}{20}[/tex]

Your answer is "-2 7/20."

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

[tex]2\frac{7}{20}[/tex] is the mixed number we get by subtracting  [tex]3\frac{2}{5}[/tex] from [tex]5\frac{3}{4}[/tex].

To subtract [tex]3\frac{2}{5}[/tex] from [tex]5\frac{3}{4}[/tex], we first need to convert both mixed numbers to improper fractions.

[tex]5\frac{3}{4}[/tex] = (4 × 5 + 3) / 4 = 23/4

[tex]3\frac{2}{5}[/tex] = (5 × 3 + 2) / 5 = 17/5

Now we can subtract the two fractions:

23/4 - 17/5

To subtract fractions, we need to have a common denominator.

The common denominator for 4 and 5 is 20.

We'll convert both fractions to have a denominator of 20:

23/4 = (23 × 5) / (4 × 5) = 115/20

17/5 = (17 × 4) / (5 × 4) = 68/20

Now we can subtract the fractions:

115/20 - 68/20

= (115 - 68) / 20

= 47/20

An event organiser is filling some party bags for a children's party. Each bag contains sweets, stickers and crayons. 40% of the items are stickers. The ratio of sweets to crayons is 5:3 The event organiser uses 150 sweets in total. She fills 10 party bags. How many stickers does she put in each bag?​

Answers

Answer: 16 stickers

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of sweets to crayons is 5:3

we know she is using 150 sweets.

so if 5 = 150, then 3 = 90.

We know there are 90 crayons and 150 sweets.

So there are a total of 240 non-sticker items

If 60% = 240, then 40% = 160

Now we know that there are 150 sweets, 90 crayons, and 160 stickers.

If she is filling 10 bags, then there are 15 sweets, 9 crayons, and 16 stickers in each.

So there are 16 stickers/bag.

suppose f(x)=2x-5,g(x)=-3-1,and h(x) =2x2+x-7 calculate f(-7)​

Answers

Answer:

f(-7) = -19

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the problem

f(x) = 2x - 5

∵ g(x) = -3x - 1

∵ h(x) = 2x² + x - 7

→ We need to find f(-7), that means substitute x in f(x) by -7

∵ x in f(x) = -7

∵ f(x) = 2x - 5

∴ f(-7) = 2(-7) - 5

→ Calculate 2 × (-7)

∴ f(-7) = -14 - 5

→ Add them

f(-7) = -19

Rule:

Answers

Answer:

rule: y = 2x -6n = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

We can look at the ratios of differences between x and y values to determine the nature of the sequence.

x-differences

  9 -8 = 1; 11 -9 = 2;

y-differences

  12 -10 = 2; 16 -12 = 4;

__

The ratios Δy/Δx are 2/1 = 2 and 4/2 = 2. That is, the points lie on a straight line with slope Δy/Δx = 2.

The y-intercept of the line can be found using the formula ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 10 -2(8) = -6 . . . . for (x, y) = (8, 10)

So, the rule relating x and y is ...

  y = 2x -6

  n = 2(14) -6 = 22

Answer:1/4

Step-by-step explanation:We can't subtract two fractions with different denominators. So you need to get a common denominator. To do this, you'll multiply the denominators times each other... but the numerators have to change, too. They get multiplied by the other term's denominator.

So we multiply 3 by 12, and get 36.

Then we multiply 6 by 4, and get 24.

Next we give both terms new denominators -- 4 × 12 = 48.

So now our fractions look like this:

36/48 − 24/48

Step 2

Since our denominators match, we can subtract the numerators.

36 − 24 = 12

So the answer is:12/48

Step 3

Last of all, we need to simplify the fraction, if possible. Can it be reduced to a simpler fraction?

To find out, we try dividing it by 2

Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 2? Yes! So we reduce it:

12/48÷ 2 =6/24

Let's try dividing by 2 again

Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 2? Yes! So we reduce it:

6/24÷ 2 =3/12

Let's try dividing by 2 again...

Nope! So now we try the next greatest prime number, 3...

Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 3? Yes! So we reduce it:3/12÷ 3 =1/4

Let's try dividing by 3 again

No good. 3 is larger than 1. So we're done reducing.

There you have it! The final answer is:

3/4−6/12=1/4

A radio station gave away 184 tickets to a concert. They gave away 3 times as many tickets to listeners as to employees. How many tickets did they give away to employees?

A.
92 tickets
B.
138 tickets
C.
74 tickets
D.
46 tickets

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

total=184 tickets

listeners= x tickets

employees=y tickets

184=x+y

x=3y

plug x into the first equation.

184=3y+y

184=4y

184/4=46

y=46

now plug y into the second equation

x=3(46)

x=138

the listeners got 138 tickets, and the employees got 46 tickets.

ZE and ZF are vertical angles with mZE = 8x + 8 and mZF = 2x +38.
What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

  x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are congruent, so ...

  ∠E = ∠F

  8x +8 = 2x +38

  6x = 30 . . . . . . . . . subtract (2x+8)

  x = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6

Answer:

Since ZE and ZF are vertical angles, they are congruent.

8x+8 = 2x+38

8 = 2x-8x+38

8 = -6x+38

8-38 = -6x

-30 = -6x

x = -30/-6

x = 5

A rental car company charges $25 per day to rent a car and $0.12 for every mile driven. Violet wants to rent a car, knowing that:
She plans to drive 125 miles.
She has at most $150 to spend.

Write and solve an inequality which can be used to determine dd, the number of days Violet can afford to rent while staying within her budget.

Answers

Answer:

The written inequality can be written as 0.12x + 25 <= 150.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the inequality you would plug in the 125 miles for x so 0.12(125) + 25 <= 150 0.12(125) would equal 15 so 15 + 25 <= 150 150/40 would equal 3.75 days but you cant have .75 of a day so Violet would have three days max to afford to rent the car while staying in her budget.
