What is the answer to :
- 1 5/12 - 7/12

Answers

Answer 1

“Same signs add and keep”

Negative minus negative you add them and keep the negative sign

-1 12/12

12/12= 1

=-2

Or make it into an improper fraction -1 5/12 is also -17/12

17+7= 24

-24/12 = -2

Answer 2

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to understand two things about this subtraction. One thing is subtracting from a negative number. The other thing is doing an operation with mixed numerals.

Let's start with subtracting from a negative number.

To subtract, you add the opposite (also called the additive inverse). For example, 4 - 2 is the same as 4 + (-2). In other words, to subtract 2 from 4, you add the opposite of 2 to 4. Now you need to rules of addition of signed numbers.

Let's look at your problem.

-1 5/12 - 7/12

You are subtracting 7/12 from the negative mixed numeral -1 5/12.

Change the subtraction into an addition of the reciprocal. The opposite of 7/12 is -7/12, so to subtract 7/12, you add -7/12.

-1 5/12 - 7/12 =

= -1 5/12 + (-7/12)

Now you are adding two negative numbers.

To add two negative numbers, add their absolute values (meaning ignore the negative signs, just add the numbers), and then the answer is negative.

You need to add

1 5/12 + 7/12

Add the fractional parts: 5/12 + 7/12 = 12/12 = 1

1 5/12 + 7/12 = 1 + 12/12 = 1 + 1 = 2

Now that we added the absolute values, and we have a sum of 2, the final answer for the original problem is -2 since we were adding two negative numbers.

Many has 40 ounce of butter that he is cutting into 1.25 ounces . How many slices will he have?

Answers

He would have 32 slices of butter.

The student will have 32 slices of butter if they cut 40 ounces into 1.25-ounce pieces by dividing the total amount by the size of each slice.

The student wants to know how many slices of butter they can get from 40 ounces if they are cutting it into 1.25 ounces each. To find out, they need to divide the total amount of butter by the size of each piece.

First, take the total amount of butter, which is 40 ounces.

Divide 40 ounces by the size of each slice, which is 1.25 ounces.

Calculate the division: 40 / 1.25 = 32 slices.

Therefore, the student will have 32 slices of butter if they cut 40 ounces into 1.25-ounce pieces.

Which of the following rules represents the function shown in the table?

Answers

This is F(n) = 3n

The X is an interger which is holding a value

The relationship between Y and X is 3n as we multiply X by 3 to get the value of Y and is proven yet so.

Answer:

The rule which represent the function as shown in the table is:

                 [tex]f(n)=3n[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a table as follows:

  x       2          -1         0

  y       6          -3         0

Now we are asked to find the function which represent these table of values.

a)

    [tex]f(n)=n+3[/tex]

Here x is represented by n and y by f(n)

when n=2 we must have f(n)=6

Hence, we put n=2 in the given expression and check,

[tex]f(2)=2+3=5\neq 6[/tex]

Hence, this is not a correct function.

b)

[tex]f(n)=\dfrac{1}{3}n[/tex]

Again we check for n=2

We have:

[tex]f(2)=\dfrac{1}{3}\times 2=\dfrac{2}{3}\neq 6[/tex]

Hence, it is not a correct expression.

So we are left with option: c)

c)

[tex]f(n)=3n[/tex]

By putting the value of n=2,-1 and 0

we see that the expression matches the table of values.

( since,

when n=2 we have:

[tex]f(2)=3\times 2=6[/tex]

when n= -1 we have:

[tex]f(-1)=3\times -1=-3[/tex]

and when n=0 we have:

[tex]f(0)=3\times 0=0[/tex] )

Hence, this is a correct expression.

find the area of this figure

Answers

Answer:

79.25 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the figure, split it into two shapes - a rectangle and a semi-circle.

The area of a rectangle is A = b*h. Substitute b = 10 and h = 4.

A = 4*10 = 40.

The area of a semi-circle is A =1/2 πr². Substitute r = 5 since the diameter is 10.

A =1/2 π5² = 12.5π = 39.25.

Add the two areas together.

39.25 + 40 = 79.25

No 1 inch cubes will fit

28 one-half inch cubes will fit

Step-by-step explanation:

No cubes with a side length of 1 inch will fit because one dimension of the prism is only 1/2 inches, so we can't fit a 1 inch cube in anywhere.

Since one dimension is 1/2 inch, we can line up 1/2 inch cubes along the other 2 dimensions.  Let's say that the 1/2 inch dimension is the base, the 2 inch dimension is the height, and the 7/2 inch dimension is the length.

We can stack the cubes 4 high, (2 inches of height with 1/2 inch being the cube height, there are 4 halves in 2).

We can place 7 cubes along the length (7/2 inches = 3.5 inches.  There are 7 halves in 3.5).  

So we can have 4(7) = 28  one half inch cubes can fit in to the prism

D. x = 5, y = 2

Answers

Answer:

option D

D. x = 5, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question two equation,

Equation 1

5.3x + y = 28.5

Equation 2

4.2x + 3.1y = 27.2

rearrange equation 1 in terms of y

y = 28.5 - 5.3x

Substitute the value of y in equation 2

4.2x + 3.1(28.5 - 5.3x) = 27.2

4.2x + 88.35 - 16.43x = 27.2

4.2x - 16.43x = 27.2 - 88.35

-12.23x = -61.15

x = 61.15/12.23

x = 5

put value of x in any of the equation

5.3(5) + y = 28.5

y = 28.5 - 26.5

y = 2

A latter leans agains the side of a house.The top of the ladder is 24ft from the ground. The bottom of the lAdder is 7ft from the side of the house. Find the length of the ladder.

Answers

Answer:

25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

You can superimpose a triangle in this situation.  The height from the ground to the top of the ladder along the wall is one leg of the triangle, the distance the ladder is from the wall is the other leg, and the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse.  

Use Pythagorean theorem to solve, which is a² + b² = c² where a, and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse...

We have

7² + 24² = c²

   49 + 576 = c²

       625 = c²

        25 = c          

*Tecnhically the answer is ±25, but it's a length, so we disregard the negative answer.

Franco wants to have $750,000 when he retires in a year. If he currently has $700,000 to put in a 1-year CD, which of these APRs and compounding periods will allow him to reach his goal?

Answers

Answer:

Francesco can achieve this amount by investing at an APR of 7.14% compounded annually , or 7% compounded every six months or 6.95% compounded quarterly

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using the concept of compounded interest

The formula for amount obtained when a principal of p was invested at a rate r compounding n times a year is:

[tex]Amt = p(1+\frac{r}{100n})^n[/tex]

Here p = 70000, amt = 75000,

So when compounded annually, n=1

[tex]Amt =p(1+\frac{r}{100n})^n\\75000=70000(1+\frac{r}{100})^1\\\frac{15}{14}=1+\frac{r}{100}\\\frac{1}{14}=\frac{r}{100}\\r = \frac{100}{14}=7.14[/tex]

For compounding every 6 months n=2

[tex]Amt =p(1+\frac{r}{100n})^n75000=70000(1+\frac{r}{200})^2\\\frac{15}{14}=(1+\frac{r}{200})^2\\\sqrt{\frac{15}{14}}=1+\frac{r}{200}\\r = 200*(\sqrt{\frac{15}{14}}-1)=7.01[/tex]

For compounding quarterly n=4

[tex]Amt =p(1+\frac{r}{100n})^n\\75000=70000(1+\frac{r}{400})^4\\\frac{15}{14}=(1+\frac{r}{400})^4\\(\frac{15}{14})^\frac{1}{4}=1+\frac{r}{400}\\r = 6.95[/tex]

Final answer:

The best model for the given data is likely a quadratic model because the y values increase then decrease and then increase again, a typical pattern of a quadratic model.

Explanation:

To determine which model best fits the given set of data: (-4,-2), (-2,1), (2,-2), (4,3), we need to examine the relationship between the x and y values. Based on the given data, there is not a consistent increase or decrease, which suggests that the best model is not linear.

Quadratic model and cubic model can also be tested as they can capture complex patterns, which makes them a good fit for data that has peaks and valleys, such as our data set.

Upon examining the data, we realize there is a pattern where the value of y increases, then decreases, then increases again which is typically of a quadratic model. Therefore, the best fit for this data set is most likely a quadratic model.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is

[tex]V=\pi *r^2*h[/tex]

V=628.3185307 cm^3

or simply

V=628.32 cm^3

Since, you know the radius of the hemisphere on top, you also know the radius since the height of the hemisphere is the same as it is wide.

Next, the formula for the volume of a sphere is

[tex]V=\frac{4}{3} \pi *r^3[/tex]

so the volume of a hemisphere is half of that or:

[tex]V=\frac{2}{3} *\pi *r^3[/tex]

V= 261.7993878 cm^3

or simply

V=261.80 cm^3

This is because it wants you to represent the answer in Slope-Intercept Form. Which is y = mx + b. B is the y intercept, which is where it starts. On a graph, the y-intercept starts at ZERO. The 3 is at the zero, so you know what the first number is. Then, you need to see the fluctuation (change) in the value of each number in the y as you increase in x. As the x increases by one, you can see that the y decreases by two. So now you know, the ROC or Rate of Change is two, which is your slope. Slope is m. So if m is two, that makes 2x.

f(x)⁻¹ = 3x/(2 - x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the inverse of f(x) = 2x/(x+3)

The first step is to let f(x) = y

y = 2x/(x+3)

Then make x the subject of the formula

y = 2x/(x+3)

y(x + 3) = 2x

yx + 3y = 2x

yx - 2x = -3y

x(y - 2) = -3y

x = -3y/(y - 2)

∴ f(x)⁻¹ = -3x/(x - 2)
