Ok so this all about subtracting fractions this is what you want to do:
you can change 8 3/4 and 4 2/3 to have the same value and deominator
8 3/4 = 8 9/12(multiply both sides by 3)
4 2/3 = 4 8/12(multiply both sides by 4)
you do this because 12 is divisible by 3 and 4
then, subtract 4 8/12 from 8 9/12 because John is using some of the wood his dad gave him.
then subtract once again, taking 11/2 away from your difference.
again match the deominator of 11/2 to the deominator of your difference which should be 12. another divisible of 12 is 2 and 6.
11/2 = 66/12 = 5 6/12(multiply both the top and bottom by 6)
and start subtracting.
so John should have -1 5/12(?) wood left
Answer:
6 is the the distance between the points
Answer:
slope that is undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the slope m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = A(- 3, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B(- 3, 3)
m = 
= 
Division by zero is undefined
Thus the slope of AB is undefined
Answer: $100,000
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Land + Stocks + Bonds + Savings = 100%
+ 0.1x + 
+ 35,000 = 1.00x
= 0.5x + 0.1x + 0.05x + 35,000 = 1.00x
= 0.65x + 35,000 = 1.00x
35,000 = 0.35x
100,000 = x
Answer:
11 dimes, 17 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
d + n = 28, put one variable by itself on a side, d = 28 - n
.10d + .05n = 1.95
Sub the first equation into the second
.10(28 - n) + .05n = 1.95
2.8 - .10n + .05n = 1.95
2.8 - .05n = 1.95
-.05n = -0.85
n = 17 nickels
d + 17 = 28
d = 11 11 dimes
