i have a test tomorrow and i forgot this but how do you do something like this:
-(-14⅞)-15+(-⅚)-14⅞​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-15 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine the given terms (through addition and subtraction).

14 7/8  -  15  -  5/6  -  14 7/8

Identify the LCD:  It is 24

Therefore we have:

14 21/24 - 15 - 20/24 - 14 21/24

Combining the whole numbers, we get

14 - 15 - 14, or -15

and combining the fractions, we get

21 - 20 - 21

----------------- = -20/24

       24

and so we have -15 - 20/24, or -15 - 5/6, or -15 5/6

Ellen has a coupon for 1.55 off a loaf of bread. The regular price of bread is 4.63. The loaf is cut into 14 slices. What is the price per slice if Ellen uses her coupon?

Answers

Answer:

0.22 or 22 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

4.63 (original bread price) - 1.55 (coupon) = 3.08

divided by 14 slices of bread is 22 cents

Answer:

$0.22 per slice

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Brackets Parenthesis Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction Left to Right

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the coupon to the loaf of bread first. $1.55 off a loaf of bread means subtracting this amount from the original price of bread.

$4.63 - $1.55 = $3.08

If the loaf is cut into 14 slices, we should divide the loaf of bread's new price by 14.

$3.08 / 14 = $0.22

The price per slice if Ellen uses her coupon is $0.22 per slice.

willie has 4 treasure chests which have a combined weight of 240 pounds. If each chest weighs at least 20 pounds what is the heaviest possible weight of one of the chests?

A. 177
B. 180
C. 217
D. 234

Answers

Answer:

B. 180

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a condition that each chest needs to be at least 20 pounds and we can use that to our advantage. Because we want one of the boxes to be really heavy, we need the other three to be really light. Let's set the heavy box as variable y. Set each of the other three boxes equal to 20. Because the combined weight is 240, then the equation so far is 240 = (20*3)+y.

Now, we can solve for y. 240-60 = 180, so the heaviest box has to be 180 lb.

Answers

Answer:

108 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following angle measures in triangle QRS

m<Q = 1x

m<R = 3x

m<S = 6x

Note that the largest angle is the obtuse angle since they are always greater than 90 and less than 180 degrees

The sum of angle in a triangle is 180 degrees

m<Q + m<R + m<S = 180

1x + 3x + 6x = 180

10x = 180

x = 180/10

x = 18

The obtuse angle is 6x

Measure of the obtuse angle = 6x

Measure of the obtuse angle = 6(18)

Measure of the obtuse angle = 108 degrees

Hence the measure of the obtuse angle is 108 degrees

Answers

Yes very much so good job

Answer:

200 visitors went to screen 1.

125 visitors went to screen 2.

175 visitors went to screen 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will find number of visitors who went to screen 1 by finding 40% of 500 as we are told that 40% of 500 visitors went to screen 1.

Therefore, 200 visitors went to screen 1.

Now we will find number of visitors who went to screen 2. We are told that 25% of 500 visitors went to screen 2.

Therefore, 125 visitors went to screen 2.

Now we will find the number of visitors who went to screen 3 by subtracting combined number of visitors who went to screen 1 and screen 2 from total number of visitors.

Therefore, 175 visitors went to screen 3.

decrease £220 by 15%

Answers


220, percentage decreased by 15% (percent) of its value = 187

If we decrease £220 by 15% then it would be £187

What is percentage?

"It is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100."

To find the percent of a number:

x percent of number p is,

x% of p = p × (x/100)

For given example,

We need to decrease £220 by 15%

First we find the 15 percent of £220

15 percent of £220 is,

⇒15% of £220 = 220 × (15/100)

⇒15% of £220 = 220 × 0.15

⇒15% of £220 = £33

Now, we decrease £220 by 15%,

£220 - £33 = £187

Therefore, if we decrease £220 by 15% then it would be £187

Jack and Jane are married and both work. However, due to their responsibilities at home, they have decided that they do not want to work over 65 hours per week combined. Jane is paid $14 per hour at her job, and Jack is paid $10 per hour at his. Neither of them are paid extra for overtime, but they are allowed to determine the number of hours per week that they wish to work. If they need to make a minimum of $850 per week before taxes, what is the maximum amount of hours that Jack can work per week according to these limits?

Answers

By setting up a system of equations we can easily solve this problem. Let's denote Jane's working hours with x and Jack's working hours with y. Since they don't want to work more than 65 hours, the first equation is x+y=65. The second equation is 14x+7y=770. By solving this system of equation , we find that y=20 hours, which is Jack's maximum working hours.

write down an expression for the nth term of the following sequence

5, 11, 17, 23, ...

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 6n - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference d between consecutive terms in the sequence

d = 11 - 5 = 17 - 11 = 23 - 17 = 6

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with n th term

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 5 and d = 6 , then

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 5 + 6(n - 1) = 5 + 6n - 6 = 6n - 1

6n-1
Because:

What is a formula that can be used to find the area of one triangular section of the door how do you know the formula will work?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} L B[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Required

Determine the formula of one of the triangular sections

From the attachment, we have that:

[tex]L = Length[/tex]

[tex]B = Height[/tex]

The area of the triangle is:

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} * L * B[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} L B[/tex]

How to know the formula works?

From the attachment, we can see that the rectangle is divided into two equal triangular sections.

The area of the rectangle is:

[tex]Area = L* B[/tex]

[tex]Area = LB[/tex]

Because the rectangle is divided into two equal triangular sections.

This implies that, the area of one of the triangular sections is half the area of the rectangle.

So:

[tex]Area(Triangle) = \frac{1}{2}Area(Rectangle)[/tex]

Substitute LB for the area of the rectangle

[tex]Area(Triangle) = \frac{1}{2}LB[/tex]

By comparison:

[tex]Area(Triangle) = \frac{1}{2}LB[/tex] and [tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} L B[/tex] are the same
