Carl used 10 2/9 of an inch of string to tie a parcel and another 5 1/4 of an inch of string to tie a box, how much string is left if he started with 20 inches?

(please put you solution)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4 19/36

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to subtract the sum of 10 2/9 and 5 1/4 from 20 to get the answer.

 =>     10 2/9 + 5 1/4

          As   a c/d    is     a + c/d,

          10 2/9 + 5 1/4 can also be written as  10+5+2/9+1/4

     

           now  we have to simplify it

 =>      10+5 = 15  

 =>      2/9 =  (2*4)/9*4)  =  8/36,    1/4  =  (1*9)/(4*9)  =  9/36

           now we have the same denominators

           add,

           8/36 + 9/36  =  (8+9)/36    =      17/36

 

 =>      now we know that 10 2/9 +  5 1/4  is  15 17/36 (  which is 15 + 17/36)

           

 =>      next step is to convert 15 17/36 into an improper fraction

           15 17/36  =     [(15*36)+17]/36     =     [540+17]/36    =   557/36

           

 =>       now we just have to subtract  557/26 from 20

            20 -  557/36  =   [(20*36)-557]/36   =    [720-557]/36   =    163/36

         

 =>   we can convert 163/36 into a mixed fraction if we want to  

        163/36 converted into mixed fraction is 4 19/36

        hope this helps :)

What is ∑n=15[5(−2)n−1] equal to?

Answers

Answer:

Although the notation is sloppy, I will assume based on former questions of the same that "∑n=15[5(−2)^n−1]" translates mathematically to . Please correct me, though, if this in incorrect.

Anyway, there is neat formula that will deal with question very quickly. It is the following:

Sn is the sum of the geometric series

a1 is the first term in the series

r is the common ratio

n is the number of terms in the finite geometric series

Let's use this formula to our advantage! However, there are two variables that we do not know: a1 and n. Let's start with a1.The first term in the series is when n=1, so let's determine what that is.

The expression ∑n = 15 [5 (−2) n − 1] is equal to 5/16384.

What is an expression?

An expression contains one or more terms with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

We always combine the like terms in an expression when we simplify.

We also keep all the like terms on one side of the expression if we are dealing with two sides of an expression.

Example: so

1 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.com

3 + 4 is an expression.

2 x 4 + 6 x 7 – 9 is an expression.

33 + 77 – 88 is an expression.

We have,

First, let's understand the notation.

∑n = 15 represents the sum of the expression that follows for n starting from 15, and the expression is 5 (−2) n − 1.

So, we need to find the sum of 5 (−2) n − 1 from n = 15 to n = 15, which means there is only one term in the sum.

Substituting n = 15, we get:

5 (−2) (15 − 1) = 5 (−2) 14 = 5/16384

Therefore,

The expression ∑n = 15 [5 (−2) n − 1] is equal to 5/16384.

Find the surface area of the figure?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the surface area consists of 6 individual areas :

front and back (both are equal)

left and right (both are equal)

top and bottom

front and back are trapezoids.

the area of a trapezoid is

(base 1 + base 2)/2 × h

the bases are the 2 parallel sides.

in our case the area of one trapezoid is

(5 + 19)/2 × 12.1 = 145.2 ft²

front and back together then are 290.4 ft².

left and right are 8×14 rectangles:

8×14 = 112 ft²

together they are 224 ft².

the bottom is a 5×8 rectangle :

5×8 = 40 ft²

the top is a 19×8 rectangle :

19×8 = 152 ft²

so, the total surface area is

290.4 + 224 + 40 + 152 = 706.4 ft²

If the radius of a clock is 5 inches, what is the distance around the edge of the clock between the two and the five to the nearest hundredth of an inch

plssss help
thank you

Answers

Answer:

7.85 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

It mentions distance around the edge of the clock, which is basically another term used for arc length.

Arc Length Formula :

Arc Length = 2πr × θ/360°

Values given :

Radius (r) = 5 inches

Turning angle (θ) = 3/12 × 2π = 1/4 x 2π = π/2 = 90°

Solving :

Arc Length = 2 x 3.14 x 5 x 90/360

Arc Length = 15.7 x 0.5

Arc Length = 7.85 inches

If you don't replace the first red marble, it decreases the number of red marbles in the mix, making the proportion of blue marbles relatively larger. For example, if there were 5 red and 5 blue marbles, there would be a 50% chance of drawing a blue marble. If the red drawn is not replaced, there is a 5/9 chance of drawing a blue marble, or a 55% chance of drawing one.

The sum of two numbers is 36. One number is 2 times as large as the other. What are the numbers?
Larger number:
Smaller number:

Answers

Let the first number be "x", and the 2nd number (which is twice as large as the other), be 2x.

Set the equation

2x + x = 36

Simplify. Combine like terms

(2x + x) = 36

3x = 36

Isolate the x. Divide 3 from both sides

(3x)/3 = (36)/3

x = 36/3

x = 12

The first number is 12

The second number is 2x. Replace x with 12. Multiply.

2x = 2(12) = 24

The second number is 24

Check: 12 + 24 = 36 (True)

You start at (3, -2). You move up 5 units. Where do you end?

Answers

Answer:

You would end at (3, 3).

Explanation:

You would plot your first mark at 3 on a typical xy graph because the first number in ()'s is always x (horizontal line).

Second, because your second mark is y (vertical line), you would plot -2 on the vertical axis.

Your y plot would be 5 more than -2 because you're traveling up five units, giving you (3, 3).

Answer: (3,3)
Explanation: you would end up at (3, 3) because you are originally given (3, 2) and the order goes (x, y). x is the placement on the horizontal line when y is the placement on the vertical line. So since you are starting at 3 to the right and 2 below zero you would move up 5 and get to (3, 3). :)
