Subtract. Write your answer as a mixed number in simplest form.5 7/10 - 1 9/10

Answers

Ans: -1 -1/5

First you’d figure out what 1 9/10 is but added 10/10 to 9/10

19/10


Then you would subtract


7/10 - 19/10 = -12/10


-12/10 = -1 -2/10


In simplest form,

-1 -2/10

Would be

-1 -1/5

Hope this helped :)

Amy wants to enlarge a rectangle with sides 9 and 12 inches. If
the shorter side of the new rectangle is 135 inches, how long will
the longer side be?

Answers

Answer: the longer side will be 180 inches.  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the rectangle has the sides, 9 inches and 12 inches . This means that the shorter side is 9 inches.

It has to been enlarge, meaning that it has gotten bigger to 135 inches.

This also means that it was multiplied by a number to get 135.

So divide 135 by 9 to find the number it was multiplied by, and multiply that number by 12 to find the length of the longer side.

135 / 9 = 15

12 * 15 = 180  

This means the larger side is 180 inches.

A fraction represents a part of a whole.40/70, 21/70 are the same fractions like 4/7 and 3/10 with same denominator.

What is a fraction?

A fraction represents a part of a whole

We need to write 4/7 and 3/10 with the same denominator

The given fractions are 4/7 and 3/10

in 4/7

If numerator and denominator is multiplied with 10

4/7*10/10

we get

40/70

i.e 4/7=40/70

Now

in 3/10

If numerator and denominator is multiplied with 10

3/10*7/7

we get

21/70

i.e 3/10=21/70

Therefore 4/7=40/70 and 3/10=21/70 are two fractions with same denominator.

Ernest works in the shipping department at Wal-Mart. Each
Empty crate weighs 150 lbs. How many boxes, each weighing 35

Ibs?

Answers

Max weight of the crate - the empty crate/ by 35 (the weight of the individual boxes)

850-150=700

700 lbs is the remaining weight available that can be filled with 35 lb boxes, to find out the number of boxes that can be added to the crate, divide 700 by 35.

700/35 = 20

Ernest can put in 20 boxes in the crate.

What is the slope for (-1,2) and (1,16)

Answers

Answer:

The slope is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

(-1, 2) and (1, 16)

Slope is found using the following formula:

(y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

First, let's label the coordinates (these can be in any order, as long as the second numbers in each coordinate are in the y slots and the first numbers are in the x slots:

y₂: 16

y₁: 2

x₂: 1

x₁: -1

Now, substitute into the original formula:

(y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

(16 - 2) / (1 - (-1))

Simplify

(14)/(2)

7

The slope is 7.

Vanessa and Zack are playing a game where the player with the lower score wins. At the end of the game, Vanessa has a score of Negative 3 and Start Fraction 5 over 8 EndFraction and Zack has a score of Negative 3 and two-thirds. Which statement explains who won?

Answers

Answer:

Zach won

Step-by-step explanation:

For UA to be able to know the lowest score, we can express their score as percentage.

Vanessa score = -3 5/8 = -29/8

Express in percentage

= -29/8 × 100

= -2900/8

= - 362.5%

Zack score = -3 2/3 = -11/3

Express as percentage

= -11/3 ×100

= -1100/3

= -366.7%

Since the person with lowest score wins, hence Zack won. Note that the highest negative value serves as the lowest score.
