how do I simplify when there are fractions on fractions

Given:

The temperature on a mountain peak was 7°F at 6:00 p.m.

By 8:00 p.m., the temperature had dropped to 0°F.

To find:

The temperature at 11:00 p.m. if the temperature continued to drop at about the same rate.

Solution:

Time between 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. is 2 hours.

Change in temperature in 2 hours is -7°F.

Change in temperature in 1 hours is [tex]-\dfrac{7}{2}^\circ[/tex]F.

Time between 8:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. is 3 hours.

Change in temperature in 3 hours is [tex]3\times \dfrac{-7}{2}^\circ[/tex]F, i.e., [tex]-\dfrac{21}{2}^\circ[/tex]F.

Now, the temperature at 11:00 p.m is:

[tex]0-\dfrac{21}{2}=-10.5[/tex]

Therefore, the temperature at 11:00 p.m. is -10.5°F.

Note: All options are incorrect.

Answer:

.36

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the decay factor

y = a(1-b)^x

b = 1-rate of decrease

   = 1-64%

   = 1-.64

   = .36

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2y=-2

2y=-x-2

y=-x/2-2/2

y=-x/2-------(1)

y=1/2x-5-----(2)

(1)=(2)

-x/2=1/2x-5

-x=x-10

-2x=-10

x=5

substitute in 2

         y=(1/2)*5-5

           =5/2-5

          =-2.5

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

z^2 - 6z - 27 = 0

(z - 9)(z+3) = 0

z - 9 = 0 z + 3 = 0

z = -3, 9

Make note of the coefficients in the first and fourth equations. They've been conveniently picked so that subtracting one equation from the other eliminates every variable but t. We have

(3r + 2s + t + 2u + 3v) - (3r + 2s + 3t + 2u + 3v) = 7 - 17

-2t = -10

t = 5

Answer:

2x^2 -1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x^2+3

g(x)=x-4

g(f(x))

Replace x in g(x) with the function f(x)

g(f(x)) = 2x^2+3 -4

Combine like terms

         =2x^2 -1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial velocity of the ball is u.

At the maximum height the speed is zero.

Let the time is t.

Use first equation of motion.

v = u - gt

0 = u - g t

t = u/g

Let the maximum height is H.

Use third equation of motion

[tex]v^2 = u^2 - 2 gh\\\\0 = u^2 - 2 gH\\\\H = \frac{u^2}{2 g}[/tex]

Answer:

Minimum Possible Temperature: 55° F

Maximum Possible Temperature: 71° F

Step-by-step explanation:

Beginning temperature: 63° F

Change in temperature: 8° F

If the temperature decreased: 63° F - 8 °F = 55° F

If the temperature increased: 63° F + 8° F = 71° F

Minimum Possible Temperature: 55° F

Maximum Possible Temperature: 71° F

Answer:

The number is -6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable x = a number

Set up an equation:

3x + 12 = -6

Isolate variable x:

3x = -18

x = -6

Check your work:

3(-6) + 12 = -6

-18 + 12 = -6

-6 = -6

Correct!

Answer:

3x +12=-6

3x=-6-12

3x=-18

x=-18/3

x=-6

Answer:

The associative property

Step-by-step explanation:

In brief terms, the associative property states that when one has like operations, or an operation and its inverse, one can add parenthesis to the equation without changing the final answer. One can also change the place in which the parenthesis stands in this expression without altering the result. remember, an operation and its inverse refers to any operation and the operation that is done to undo the operation. The following is a list of such operations:

[tex]x^n=b[/tex]        [tex]\sqrt[n]{b}=x[/tex]

[tex]a*b[/tex]            [tex]a[/tex] ÷ [tex]b[/tex]

[tex]a+b[/tex]           [tex]a-b[/tex]

Answer:

3 (3a-6b+7c)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The highest common factor is 3.

9/3 = 3

18/3 =6

21/3 = 7

The literals have no common factors that we know of.

Answer: 3(3a - 6b + 7c)

Answer: x = 7°

Explanation:

We know that sum of angles of a quadilateral is = 360°

Therefore ATQ

⇒ (12x-4)+(18x+4)+(15x+10)+(5x) = 360

⇒ (12x + 18x + 15x + 5x) + (-4+4+10) = 360

⇒ 50x + 10 = 360

⇒ 50x = 360-10

⇒ 50x = 350

⇒ x = 350/50

⇒ x = 7

Therefore value of x is 7°

[tex]\Large \boldsymbol{}\bf \dfrac{p^{^/is \ an \ integer}}{q^{ / natural}} -irreducible \ \ fraction[/tex]

Answer:

1. ⅓*m = m - 12

2. 2(a + 5) = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let the number be represented by m

Let one-third of the number m, be ⅓*m

If there is 12 less of an amount of something, it implies 12 is to be subtracted from the initial amount.

Thus, 12 less than the number, m is (m - 12)

》⅓*m = m - 12

2. Let the number be represented by a

The sum of the number and 5 is (a+5)

》2(a+5) = 20

We know

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2371 x1.84 = 4362

4362 ÷ 36.92 = 118

the answer would be 118.1646804 but since the lowest sig fig in the question is 3 (1.84), we would have to round the answer to 3 SIG figs.

Final answer: 118

Answer:

9 grams of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

6×8=48

48÷4= 12

48-12=36

36÷4=9

first multiply 6 by 8 because a cube has six faces and you cut that cube eight times

second after you cut that you will have 48 faces and for every six faces there are 4 grams of paint so you divide 48 by 4 and you get 12 this means that 12 of the faces are painted

next you subtract 12 from 48 and you get 36 this means that 36 faces are not painted

lastly you divide 36 by 4 and you will get 9 grams of paint

Answer:

The possible approximate frequencies of the guitar string are 516.82 Hz and 508.82 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

The given period of the tuning fork, T₁ = 1.95 × 10⁻³ s

The number of beats in 6.0 s = 24 beats

Therefore, the beat frequency, [tex]f_{beat}[/tex] = 4 beats per second = 4 Hz

Let f₁ represent the frequency of the tuning fork, and let f₂ represent the frequency of the guitar string, we have;

f₁ = 1/T₁ = 1/(1.95 × 10⁻³) ≈ 512.82 Hz

We have;

[tex]f_{beat} = \left | f_2 - f_1 \right |[/tex]

[tex]\pm f_{beat} = f_2 - f_1[/tex]

Therefore, we get;

[tex]4 \, Hz= \left | f_2 - 512.82 \, Hz \right |[/tex]

f₂ - 512.82 = ± 4

∴ f₂ = 512.82 ± 4

The possible frequencies of the guitar string,  f₂ ≈ 516.82 Hz or f₂ ≈ 508.82 Hz
