Answer:
8/3 or 2.667
Step-by-step explanation:
6x+4=20
20-4= 16
6x/6=x
16/6=8/3 or 2.667
In order to figure out whether Luis or Isabella skates farther to get to school, we have to create a common denominator between the two fractions that represent the distance that each person walks.
The least common denominator of 3 and 4 is 12. This means that we have to change both fractions into equal fractions with denominators of 12.
To figure this out, we must set up a proportion.
2/3 = x/12
To solve this proportion, we must cross-multiply the fractions. We get:
24 = 3x
If we divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 3, to get the variable x alone, we get:
x = 8
Therefore, 2/3 = 8/12, so Luis skates 8/12 mile from his home to school.
If we do the same process for the 2/4 mile to get to school for Isabella, we get 6/12, because both fractions are equal to 1/2.
Therefore, we know that Luis skates 8/12 mile to school and Isabella skates 6/12 mile to get to school. Because they have the same denominator, we can just compare the numerators. We know that 8 is greater than 6, thus Luis skates farther to get to school.
Answer:
Well, let's assume that "cups" = 3 cups of flour.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, multiply 3x36.
If for some reason this is incorrect, try 2 cups instead of 3. Both are reasonable measurements when it comes to baking.
Answer:
17 with the remainder of 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
First you find the common difference in the sequence
6 - 12 = -6
0 - 6 = -6
The common difference is -6
We can now make the equation
-6(n - 1) + 12
we got the 12 because it is the first number in the sequence
Simplify
-6n + 6 + 12
Simplify
18 - 6n
The answer is B) an = 18 - 6n
Hope this helps!
