she buy in all?
2. Roel travelled 1 1/2 km while Arnel 1 1/2 km more than the distance covered by Roel. How many kilometers did the two travel together?

3. Kenneth and Ian have 20 kilograms of fruits. Kenneth has 9 5/8 kilograms of fruits. How many kilograms of fruits does Ian have?
4. Father has a 17 3/7 m of nylon string. He gave 10 m of it for his brother’s fishing net. How long is the nylon string that is left?
5. Althea is working in a bakeshop. She put two cheesecakes on display. The first cheesecake was cut into 8 slices and there are 5 slices left. The other was cut into 12 slices and there are 4 slices left. How much cheesecake is left.

1. Liezl bought the total amount of meat = 118 / 12 kilograms.

2. Roel travel 3 kilometer.

3. Lan have 83/8 kilograms fruits.

4. Her father left 52 / 7 nylon.

5. The left cheesecake is 9 slices.

What is Fraction?

A fraction is a part of whole number, and a way to split up a number into equal parts.

Now,

1. For first condition;

Amount of pork = 2 1/4 kilograms

Amount of chicken = 5 1/2 kilograms

Amount of beef = 1 1/3 kilograms

So, Total meat = 2 1/4 + 5 1/2 + 1 1/3

= 9/4 + 11/2 + 4/3

= 36/12 + 66/12 + 16/12

= 118 / 12

Thus, The total amount of meat = 118 / 12 kilograms.

2. Total distance cover by Roel = 1 1/2 + 1 1/2

= 3/2 + 3/2

= 6/2

= 3 kilometer.

So, Roel travel 3 kilometer.

3. Kenneth and Lan have fruits = 20 kilograms.

Kenneth have fruits = 9 5/8 kilograms.

So, Amount of fruits does Lan have = 20 - 9 5/8

= 20 - 77/8

= (160 - 77) / 8

= 83 / 8 kilograms.

Thus, Lan have 83/8 kilograms fruits.

4. Father have nylon string = 17 3/7 m

And, He gave 10 m of it for his brother’s fishing net.

So, Left amount of the nylon string = 17 3/7 - 10

= 122/7 - 10

= 122 - 70 / 7

= 52 / 7

Thus, He left 52 / 7 nylon.

5. Since, Althea have left in first cheesecakes = 5 slices

And, In second cheesecakes = 4 slices.

So, Total left cheesecake = 5 + 4

= 9 slices.

Thus, The cheesecake is 9 slices.

Therefore,

1. Liezl bought the total amount of meat = 118 / 12 kilograms.

2. Roel travel 3 kilometer.

3. Lan have 83/8 kilograms fruits.

4. Her father left 52 / 7 nylon.

5. The left cheesecake is 9 slices.

Directed line segment has endpoints P(– 8, – 4) and Q(4, 12). Determine the point that partitions the directed line segment in a

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Point (1,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use segment formula to find the coordinates of point that will partition our line segment PQ in a ratio 3:1.

When a point divides any segment internally in the ratio m:n, the formula is:

$[x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},y= \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}]$

Let us substitute coordinates of point P and Q as:

$x_1=-8$ ,

$y_1=-4$

$x_2=4$

$y_2=12$

$m=3$

$n=1$

$[x=\frac{(3*4)+(1*-8)}{3+1},y=\frac{(3*12)+(1*-4)}{3+1}]$

$[x=\frac{12-8}{4},y=\frac{36-4}{4}]$

$[x=\frac{4}{4},y=\frac{32}{4}]$

$[x=1,y=8]$

Therefore, point (1,8) will partition the directed line segment PQ in a ratio 3:1.

Rectangle ABCD has vertices at (-7,-2); (1, -2); (1, -8); and (-7, -8) respectively. If GHJK is a similar rectangle where G(2, 5

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

J (6,2) K (2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Now distance of AB = [(y2-y1)^2 + (x2-x1)^2]^(1/2)

= 8 units

CB = [(y2-y1)^2 + (x2-x1)^2]^(1/2)

= 6 units by using same formula

Now AB/CB must equal to GH/HJ as rectangles are similar

GH = [(y2-y1)^2 + (x2-x1)^2]^(1/2)

= 4 units

so

8/6 = 4/HJ

So,

HJ = 3 units

Now if we see the coordinates given carefully, it is obvious that two perpendicular lines lie perfectly parallel to x and y coordinates in rectangle ABCD. A is (-7,-2) and B is (1,-2) which means distance along y-axis doesn't change. Similarly for C (1,-8) and D (-7,-8), one can see that distance between y-axis doesn't change. So lines AB and CD of rectangle are parallel with x and AD and BC are parallel with y-axis.

In rectangle GHJK one can see that in given coordinates, G(2,5) and H(6,5), y coordinate is same so it is parallel to x axis. Now, HJ is perpendicular to GH so it must be parallel to y axis. It means if we know the lengths of sides we can easily determine unknown coordinates by simple addition and subtraction.

So, we know HJ = 3 units

J is (6,2) since HJ is parallel to y axis so distance on x axis will remain unchanged and length of line HJ will effect distance of y axis.

Similarly K is (2,2) for the same reason.
