1/3 minus 1/6 equals to???

Answers

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to add or subtract fractions you have to have the same denominator for both factions. you do this through finding the Lowest Common Denominator (LCD) In this case it's six because both 3 and 6 (the denominators) can go into 6. So turn 1/3 into a fraction with 6 as the denominator through multiplying both the top and bottom of the fraction by 2

1/3 * 2/2 = 1*2/3*2 = 2/6

Then you can straightforwardly subtract

2/6 - 1/6 = 1/6

Answers

Answer: y+2=-4/5(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line passing through the point (3, -2) with a slope of - 4 is y = -4x+10

What is an equation?

An equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

Given is a slope of a line and a point passing by it, we need to find the equation of the line,

So, the general equation of the line is :-

y = mx + c

where, m is the slope, and the c is the y-intercept.

Put the value of the slope given, in the equation,

y = -4x+c

Now, for find the value of c, just put the values of the x and y from the point in the equation,

-2 = -4(3) + c

c = -2+12

c = 10

Now, we get the value of the c,

So, the equation is y = -4x+10

Hence, the equation of the line passing through the point (3, -2) with a slope of - 4 is y = -4x+10

The volume of a gas V held at a constant temperature in a closed container varies inversely with its pressure P. If the volume of a gas is 600 cubic centimeters (cc) when the pressure is 300 millimeters of mercury (mm hg) , find the volume when the pressure is 400 mm hg

Answers

Answer:

V₂ = 450 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a gas V held at a constant temperature in a closed container varies inversely with its pressure P.

[tex]V\propto \dfrac{1}{P}[/tex]

If V₁ = 600 cm³, P₁ = 300 mm hg, P₂ = 400 mm hg

We need to find a new volume. Using the above concept,

[tex]V_1P_1=V_2P_2\\\\V_2=\dfrac{V_1P_1}{P_2}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{600\times 300}{400}\\\\V_2=450\ cm^3[/tex]

So, when the pressure is 400 mm hg, its volume is 450 cubic centimeters

What is the factored form of this expression?

64x^3 - 125

Write all factors in standard form.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (4x -5)(16x² +20x +25)

Step-by-step explanation:

The factoring of the difference of cubes has a standard form:

  a³ -b³ = (a -b)(a² +ab +b²)

Here, your knowledge of the cubes of small integers tells you that ...

  64 = 4³

  125 = 5³

So, in the above, we have ...

  a = 4x, b = 5

and the factored form is ...

  (4x -5)(16x² +20x +25)

B would be the answer because line c goes through a and b. line c would the 180 line. if you subtract 180 with the numbers on lines a and b, they would equal the same.

Option B is right.

What are corresponding angles?

Corresponding angles are those angles formed in the same relative position on different intersections when a pair of lines are crossed by a third line.

Here, if we see the 60° angle, then the opposite angle must be = (180° - 60°) = 120°.

This equal to the given corresponding angle , which is also 120°.

We know, if the corresponding angles of a pair of lines are equal, then the pair of lines must be parallel.

Hence, Option B is correct.

Answers

Answer:

a). x = 6

b). Length of KI = 20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

a). Length of KI = length of KJ + length of JI

    By substituting lengths of the segments given in the picture,

    (2x + 8) = 8 + (x + 6)

    2x + 8 = x + 14

    2x - x = 14 - 8

    x = 6

b). Length of KI = (2x + 8)

   By substituting x = 6 in the expression,

   Length of KI = 2(6) + 8

                        = 12 + 8

The three Miller boys were calculating the volume of their new fish tank to determine how many gallons of water the tank can hold. Each brother measured a different dimension of the tank. Their measurements were 1 yard in length, 1 foot in width, and 18 inches in height.

1. There are approximately 7.5 gallons per cubic foot. If you want to know how many gallons of water the tank can hold, what unit of measure would you use to calculate the volume of the fish tank? Explain why

2. Determine how many gallons of water the fish tank can hold. Carefully show your work and include units of measure.​

Answers

1. Because you know the number of gallons per square foot. You would want to use cubic feet for the measurement of the tank.

2. Convert all dimensions to feet:

1 yard = 3 feet

18 inches = 1.5 feet.

Volume of tank = 3 x 1.5 x 1 = 4.5 cubic feet.

Multiply gallons per cubic foot by cubic feet of tank:

7.5 x 4.5 = 33.75 gallons.

Answer:

y = (-1/4)x + 1 so that the y-intercept is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is (-1 - 2)/[8 - (-4)] = -3/12 = -(1/4)

(-1/4) = (y - 2)/(x + 4) => -x - 4 = 4y - 8

-x + 4 = 4y

What is Coplanarity of points?

Two or more points are coplanar if they lie on the same plane in the three dimensional coordinate system. If they don't lie on the same plane, then they are called non - coplanar.

According to the question, we have to find a point non-coplanar to

plane K.

All the points except points W and Y lie on plane K. Hence, W and Y are the two points that do not lie on the K - plane.

At the beginning of a baking session, there were 2.26 kilograms of flour in the bag. By the end of the baking session, there was 0.98 kilogram
of flour in the bag. What is the percent of decrease in the amount of flour? Round the percent to the nearest tenth if necessary?

The answer is not 32 or 43.4.

Answers

Answer:

56.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate percent decrease, you first subtract the original number with the final number.

2.26 - 0.98 = 1.28

Then, you divide your answer by the original number.

1.28/2.26 = 0.56637168141

Finally, you multiply your answer by 100 and round as necessary.

0.56637168141 x 100 = 56.637168141
