1/4 + 23/28 - 1 Please Help

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{14}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{4} + \frac{23}{28} - 1 = ?[/tex]

First off, let's change everything to a common denominator. This will allow us to add the fractions!

To find a common denominator, we find a number that both 4, 28, and 1 can go into. 28 is the best choice, as 4 goes into it 7 times, 28 goes into it once, and 1 goes into it 28 times.

Let's change the first fraction into a number with a denominator of 28!

[tex]\frac{1}{4} * \frac{7}{7} = \frac{7}{28}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7}{7}[/tex] = 1. Multiplying a number by one doesn't change its value.

The second fraction, [tex]\frac{23}{28}[/tex], already has a denominator of 28, so we don't have to do anything with it.

Now to the third number, -1:

[tex]-1 = -\frac{1}{1} * \frac{28}{28} = -\frac{28}{28}[/tex]

Now, let's add them all up!

[tex]\frac{7}{28} + \frac{23}{28} - \frac{28}{28} = \frac{7 + 23 - 28}{28} = \frac{2}{28}[/tex]

One last step, to simplify:

[tex]\frac{2}{28} = \frac{1}{14}[/tex]

Your answer is 1/14!

Jake has a wooden board that measures 8.25 feet long. He cuts the board into pieces that each measure 0.75 foot so he can make signs. If Jake earns $15.95 for each sign he sells, how much money can he earn from the signs he makes with this board?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Jake cuts the board into pieces that measure .75 feet each. Before cutting the board, it is 8.25 feet long. So, we must divide 8.25/.75 to find out how many pieces of board jake cut.

8.25/.75= 11 pieces

Since he makes $15.95 per sign, and there are 11 signs, we must multiply 15.95 by 11. This is equal to 175.45.

Therefore, jake can earn $175.45

To rationalize essentially means to get rid of the radical.

The trick to all of these it to multiply the top and bottom by a radical that will turn the radical you have into the square root of a perfect square.

Part a: [tex]\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{5}}[/tex]

One approach that will always work, but not be the smallest radical, is to just multiply by the radical that is already there.

In the case of [tex]\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{5}}[/tex], you can multiply the top and bottom by [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex], so you'll really do this:

     [tex]\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{5}}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{5}} = \dfrac{1\cdot\sqrt{5}}{2\sqrt{5}\sqrt{5}}[/tex]

But in the bottom, [tex]\sqrt{5}\cdot\sqrt{5} = \sqrt{25}=5[/tex], so your work finishes out like this:

    [tex]\dfrac{1\cdot\sqrt{5}}{2\sqrt{5}\sqrt{5}} = \dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{2\sqrt{25}} = \dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{2\cdot5} = \dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{10}[/tex]

Part b: [tex]\dfrac{4}{5\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

In the case of [tex]\dfrac{4}{5\sqrt{2}}[/tex], you can multiply the top and bottom by [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex], so you'll really do this:

     [tex]\dfrac{4}{5\sqrt{2}}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

But in the bottom, [tex]\sqrt{2}\cdot\sqrt{2} = \sqrt{4}=2[/tex], so your work finishes out like this:

    [tex]\dfrac{4}{5\sqrt{2}}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = \dfrac{4\sqrt{2}}{5\sqrt{4}}=\dfrac{4\sqrt{2}}{5\cdot{2}}=\dfrac{4\sqrt{2}}{10}[/tex]

Sometimes the fraction can be reduced, so this should be reduced to [tex]\dfrac{2\sqrt{2}}{5}[/tex].

Looking at all the others, they'll follow this same approach and they will all reduce at the end.

Here's part c, for one more example.

Part c: [tex]\dfrac{3}{3\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

In the case of [tex]\dfrac{3}{3\sqrt{2}}[/tex], you can multiply the top and bottom by [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex], but you should also reduce the initial fraction first.

     [tex]\dfrac{3}{3\sqrt{2}} = \dfrac{1}{1\cdot\sqrt{2}} = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

And now proceed with rationalizing:

    [tex]\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

But in the bottom, [tex]\sqrt{2}\cdot\sqrt{2} = \sqrt{4}=2[/tex], so your work finishes out like this:

    [tex]\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = \dfrac{1\cdot\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{4}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{{2}}[/tex]

And you're done.

Hopefully that helps you finish the rest of those.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) 1/(2 sqrt5) x (sqrt 5)/(sqrt5) = (sqrt 5)/10

(b) 4/(5bsqrt2) x (sqrt2)/(sqrt2) = (4sqrt2)/10 = (2sqrt2)/5

(c) 3/(3 sqrt2) x (sqrt2)/(sqrt2) =(sqrt2)/2

(d) 12 /(5 sqrt6) x (sqrt6)/(sqrt6) = (12sqrt6)/30 = (2sqrt6)5

(e) 8/(3 sqrt2) x (sqrt2)/(sqrt2) = (8 sqrt2)/6 = (4 sqrt2)/3

(f) 20/(7 sqrt5) x (sqrt5)/(sqrt5) = (20 sqrt5)/35 = (4 sqrt5)/7

(g) 50/(3 sqrt10) x (sqrt10)(sqrt10) = (50 sqrt10)/30 = (5sqrt10)/3

(h) 10/(3 sqrt2) x (sqrt2)/(sqrt2) = (10 sqrt2)6 = (5 sqrt2)/3


Suppose two trains leave a certain station, at the same time, traveling in opposite directions. One train travels 30 mph faster than the other. In 2.5 hours, the trains are 205 miles apart. Find the speed of each train


Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  56 mph, 26 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The trains are separating at the rate of (205 mi)/(2.5 h) = 82 mi/h. If we let s represent the speed of the slower train, then that sum of their speeds is ...

  s + (s+30) = 82

  2s = 52 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 30

  s = 26 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  s +30 = 56 . . . the speed of the other train

The speeds of the two trains are 56 mph and 26 mph.

+ 2.3

13.05

Answer:

14.05 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total amount of miles, we have to add 11.75 and 2.3, or 2.30. First, we add our hundredths:

0.05 + 0.00 = 0.05

Then, we add our tenths:

0.7 + 0.3 = 1

Then, we add our ones:

1 + 2 = 3

Finally, we add our tens:

10 + 0 = 10

Now, let's add all those numbers together. 10 + 3 + 1 + 0.05 = 14.05.

hours
Answer:

Answers

Answer:

645/28 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1 hour, Kamina does 1/43 of the job.

Simon takes x hour to do the job alone.

In 1 hour, Simon does 1/x of the job.

Together, they do the job is 15 hours, so in 1 hour, they do 1/15 of the job.

1/43 + 1/x = 1/15

15x/(645x) + 645/(645x) = 43x/(645x)

15x + 645 = 43x

28x = 645

x = 645/28

The perimeter of a regular pentagon is 4 1/7

cm. Find the length of its each side​

Answers

Answer:

29/35 cm for each of the 5 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the length of all the sides added together.  A pentagon has 5 sides.  So you'd need to divide 4 1/7 by 5.

It might be easier to divide 4 by 5 and then divide 1/7 by 5 then add the two numbers together.

4/5 = 0.80 or 8/10

1/7 divided by 5  is written as (1/7) / (5/1)

When you divide a fraction by a fraction, you flip the fraction in the denominator over and multiply the new fractions.

So (1/7) / (5/1)  turns into   1/7  x  1/5 = 1 / 35

Adding 8/10 + 1/35, you first need to find the common denominator which would be 70.

8/10 would turn into 56/70

1/35 would turn into 2/70

Add them together now and you get 58 / 70.  This can be reduced down to

29 / 35.

Before doing the question let's recall that their are two types of shapes mostly , irregular and regular . Regular shapes have all their sides equal while irregular doesn't have. And here The given shape is pentagon so it will have 5 sides . Also , it's perimeter is given i.e sum of it's all sides , If we assume it's one side to be s then perimeter will be (s+s+s+s+s) more conveniently 5s . Now , heading to our question ,

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf 5s=4\dfrac{1}{7}}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf 5s=\dfrac{4\times 7+1}{7}}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf 5s=\dfrac{28+1}{7}}[/tex]

Its 15 because if the decimal after the whole number is less than 0.5 you go to the closest whole number down. Meaning whatever the whole number is attached to your decimal lower than 0.5 is your answer. If it's higher than 0.5 or IS 0.5 you round the nearest whole number, so one bigger than the number attached to your decimal. So if it was say:

15.67

The nearest whole would be 16

Write the recurring decimal 0.05 as a fraction in its simplest form

Answers

Answer:

1/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write the given number as the numerator and place 1 in the denominator right below the decimal point followed by the number of zeros required accordingly.

In this case, 0.05 has two numbers after the decimal, so, we place 100 in the denominator and remove the decimal point. This will make it 5/100

Step 2: Then, this fraction can be simplified. 5/100 = 1/20

Thus, 0.05 as a fraction is written as 1/20

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the fraction be a

a*100.....=0.05*100

100a......=05.00

99a....=0.05

100a= 5.00

99a=     0.05

Answers

Answer:The number of nickles is 6  

The number of dims is 12 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Sum of total number of dims and nickels coins = 18

The value of total combination = $1.50

Let The total number of dims = d

Let The total number of nickels = n

1 nickles = $0.05

1 dims = $0.1

According to question

Total number of dims and nickels coins = number of dims + number of nickels

Or, d + n = 18            .........1

And

$0.1 ×d + $0.05 ×n = $1.50

Or, 0.1 d + 0.05 n = 1.50            .........2

Now, Solving eq 1 an eq 2

0.1 × (d + n) - (0.1 d + 0.05 n) = 0.1 × 18 - 1.50

Or, (0.1 d - 0.1 d) + (0.1 n - 0.05 n) = 1.8 - 1.50

Or, 0 + 0.05 n = 0.3

Or, 0.05 n = 0.3

∴  n =

i.e n = 6

So, The number of nickles = n = 6

Put the value of n int eq 1

∵ d + n = 18

Or, d = 18 - n

Or, d = 18 - 6

i.e d = 12

So, The number of dims = d = 12

Hence, The number of nickles is 6 and the number of dims is 12 .
