Answer:
The fraction is 13/21.
Step-by-step explanation:
The denominator of a fraction is 8 more than its numerator.
Let x be the numerator: x
So the denominator is: x + 8
[tex]\frac{x}{x + 8}[/tex]
If 1 is subtracted from the numerator and 3 is added to the denominator, the fraction becomes 1/2.
It will become:
[tex]\frac{x - 1}{x + 8 + 3} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{x - 1}{x + 11} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Now, by using cross multiplication, multiply (x - 1) by 2 and (x+11) by 1.
It will become:
2x - 2 = x + 11
Now transpose and combine the same values. Make sure to change the integer sign. If the integer is positive, change it to negative when you transpose it.
2x - x = 11 + 2
x = 13
So the value of x is 13. Now to check if it is correct. Go back to the equation([tex]\frac{x - 1}{x + 11} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex])
Put the value of x in it.
[tex]\frac{13-1}{13+11} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{12}{24} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
12/24 is equivalent to 1/2 so that is correct.
Now, to find the main fraction. Go back to the original equation which is;
([tex]\frac{x}{x + 8}[/tex])
Put the value of x.
[tex]\frac{13}{8 + 13}[/tex]
= 13/21

Step-by-step explanation:
A builder is buying boxes of nails. She has $187 to spend and each box of nails costs $4.
Answer:
46 boxes of nails
Step-by-step explanation:
She has $187 to spend, the maximum.
187/4 = 46.75
Since she cannot buy 0.75 of a box of nails, she can only buy 46. So she is left with an extra $3 and buys 46 boxes of nails.
Hope this helps, and please mark me the brainliest! :D
a family of four goes to a movie theatre and spends $26.50. they buy 2 tickets for adults, and 3 boxes of popcorn at $2.50 per box. what is the cost of one adult ticket
Answer:
$9.5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x2.50= 7.50
26.50-7.5 =19
19/2 = 9.5
9.5 for one adult ticket
Hi!
First, let's add (or multiply) the boxes of popcorn.
2.50 + 2.50 + 2.50 (or 2.50 x 3) is 7.50. so the popcorn all together is $7.50.
Next, we subtract the popcorn cost from the cost altogether.
26.50 - 7.50 = $19
Next, we divide the $19 by two.
19 ÷ 2 = 9.50
To make sure this is true, what we do is multiply 2 x 9.50.
2 x 9.50 = 19.
So 9.50 is your answer.(NOTICE: your problem says a family of 4. you didn't give me the total for the other 2 people who were going to the movie, so this is just my estimate for just those 2 adults. If it's not correct, that is the reason why, otherwise, it is the answer.)
Hope this helps!

Answer: 5 1/15 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
For this you have to add fractions.
First find a common denominator between the factions which can be will turn into 15.
The fraction is now: 1 10/15 + 3 6/15
Now that the denominator is the same add the fractions.
1 10/15 + 3 6/15 = 5 1/15
Make the answer negative since its under sea level
Answer = -5 1/15 feet
Use angle relationships to complete the top equation. Then, solve for x and find the measure of both angles.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
7x +40x = 204x +30 = 110°3x +10 = 70°Step-by-step explanation:
The marked angles are supplementary, so you have ...
(4x +30) +(3x +10) = 180
7x +40 = 180
__
Subtracting 40 gives ...
7x = 140
x = 140/7 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
x = 20
__
Then the angle measures are ...
4x +30 = 4·20 +30 = 110°
3x +10 = 3·20 +10 = 70°

Find (fog)(x) (gof)(x), if f(x) = 1 - 5x; g (x) = |2x + 3| x
Step-by-step explanation:
f (x) = 1 - 5x
g (x) = 2x + 3
find (fog) (x)
it's a composite function so basically we substitute x = 2x + 3 where we see x in f (x) = 1 - 5x
so doing that we'll get
1 - 5(2x + 3)
next expand your brackets
1 - 10x + 15
equate to 0 to make things easier
1 - 10x + 15 = 0
make x the subject
1 + 15 = 10x (this is the same as 10x = 1 + 15)
x = 16/10 (you can leave it as a fraction)
fog(x) = 16/10
find gof (x)
we'll do the same thing again
2(1-5x) + 3
2 -10x + 3 = 0
2 + 3 = 10x
10x = 5
x = 5/10 (reduce)
x = 1/2
gof (x) = 1/2

Sandra and Peter together weigh 275 pounds. Sandra and
Martin together weigh 245 pounds. All three together
weigh 410 pounds. What is Sandra's weight alone?
Answer:
110 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the weight of Sandra, Peter and Martin be S, P and M pounds respectively.
S +P= 275 -----(1)
S +M= 245 -----(2)
S +P +M= 410 -----(3)
(3) -(1):
S +P +M -(S +P)= 410 -275
S +P +M -S -P= 135
M= 135
Substitute M= 135 into (2):
S +135= 245
S= 245 -135
S= 110
Thus, Sarah weighs 110 pounds.

A scale drawing of triangle ABC has side lengths of 2 centimeters (cm), 4.8 cm, and 5.2 cm. The scale drawing was drawn using the scale of 1 cm=4 inches.
Raquel creates a different scale drawing of the original triangle ABC with the scale factor 116.
What are the side lengths in Raquel's scale drawing?
-1 in., 2.4 in., and 2.6 in.
-0.5 in., 1.2 in., and 1.3 in.
-8 in., 19.2 in., and 20.8 in.
-128 in., 307.2 in., and 332.8 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
I am not sure this is typed all correctly.
what I understand here :
there is an original triangle ABC in inches.
then, using the scale 1 cm = 4 inches a smaller triangle A'B'C' was created.
the side lengths of A'B'C' are 2cm, 4.8cm, 5.2cm.
due to the scale of 1 cm = 4 inches that means ABC has the side lengths 8 inches, 19.2 inches, 20.8 inches.
and now, another scaled triangle A"B"C" is drawn in inches based on ABC with a scan factor of 1/16 (is that correct ?).
that means that all side lengths are divided by 16 for the resulting triangle.
8 inches /16 = 0.5 inches
19.2 inches / 16 = 1.2 inches
20.8 inches / 16 = 1.3 inches
so, the second answer option is correct.
