how to solve 5/6y + 1 = -1/2y + 1/4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y= -1/4

y= -0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

5/6y+1= -1/2y+1/4

Subtract 1 from both sides

5/6y= -1/2y-3/4

Add 1/2y to both sides

1 1/3y= -3/4

Divide both sides by 1/3

y= -1/4

y= -0.25

Jane had 5 candy canes Max had 11 candy canes how many candy canes do they have all together

Answers

To answer this question, simply add together the amount of candy canes Jane has with the amount of candy canes Max has!

When Max = 11 and Jane = 5 ....

Max + Jane = 16


Hope this helps! :)


Final answer:

By adding Jane's 5 candy canes to Max's 11 candy canes, we find that together they have 16 candy canes.

Explanation:

To find out how many candy canes Jane and Max have all together, we need to add the number of candy canes that each person has. Jane has 5 candy canes and Max has 11 candy canes. So, we will perform a simple addition: 5 (Jane's candy canes) + 11 (Max's candy canes).

The sum is:

5 + 11 = 16

Therefore, Jane and Max have 16 candy canes all together.

To find the total number of candy canes Jane and Max have all together, you simply need to add the numbers of candy canes they each have. Jane has 5 candy canes and Max has 11 candy canes. Adding these numbers together, 5 + 11 = 16.

A blueprint of a house shows a wall that is 5 inches long. If the blueprint is drawn to a scale of 1:60, what is the actual length of the wall in the house?

Answers

Using a scale of 1:60, the actual length of a wall in the house, depicted as 5 inches on the blueprint, is 25 feet.

The correct option is c) 25 feet

To find the actual length of the wall in the house, we need to use the scale factor provided by the blueprint, which is 1:60. This means that 1 unit on the blueprint represents 60 units in reality.

Since the wall on the blueprint is 5 inches long, we can calculate the actual length of the wall by multiplying the length on the blueprint by the scale factor:

Actual length = Length on blueprint × Scale factor

              = 5 inches × 60

              = 300 inches

To convert inches to feet, we divide by 12 (since 12 inches = 1 foot):

Actual length (in feet) = [tex]\frac{300 inches}{12}[/tex]

                       = 25 feet

Therefore the correct answer is option C) 25 feet.

The question probable may be:

If a cricket chirps 140 times in one minute the temp is 72F because 140/60 is 2.333.. which is the chirps per second. you multiply that by 15 to find the number of chirps in 15 seconds which is 35. 35+37 is 72. If the temp is 60F then you subtract 37 to find the number of chirps in 15 seconds which is 23. you do 23×4 since that will find the number of chirps in one minute, and you get 92. you do 92×5 to find the number of chirps in five minutes and get 460 chirps per minute

Sophia spent $7.30 for school supplies.she spent $3.00 for a notebook and $1.75 for a pen she also bought 3 large erasers of each eraser had the same cost how much did she spend for each eraser?

It would be nonsense, as if the beetle were at normal size, then it would be considered 1/1 as a scale. If you wanted to increase it, you would increase the numerator.
It is nonsense. Penny claims she is going to to make it LARGER than life size. Therefore the fraction would have to be improper. The fraction stated would be making something SMALLER than life size.

In her science classroom Jane noticed that the lengths (in inches) and the weights (in ounces) of the class's pet snakes were directly related by the equation y = kx, where x is the length and y is the weight. Use the information in the table to find the weight of a snake that is 12 inches long.
A.25.0
B.27.5
C.30.0
D.32.5

Answers

30.0 ounces is correct. Using any pairs of numbers in the table,plug into values for x and y and solve for k.
Use one of the ordered pairs that are given to find the value of 'k', the CONSTANT of variation. This number will not change, hence the word 'constant'.
15 = k*6; dividing both sides by 6 we get k = 2.5; The equation used for the table is y = 2.5x
You can find any value now by using this formula.
y = 2.5*12
y = 30

jack was planting a tree. he was to dig a hole that was 3.25 feet deep for every 5.7 feet of tree height . how deep should he dig the hole for a tree that is 17 feet high

Answers

The hole would have to be 9.75 feet deep. 

17/5.7 = 2.9 
= 3

3 x 3.25 = 9.75

Jack should dig a hole approximately 9.69 feet deep for a tree that is 17 feet high.

Jack needs to dig a hole for a tree that is 17 feet high, based on a requirement that the hole depth should be 3.25 feet for every 5.7 feet of tree height. To calculate the depth of the hole Jack should dig, we will set up a proportion where the depth of the hole is directly proportional to the tree height.

The proportion is as follows: 3.25 feet depth/5.7 feet height = x feet depth/17 feet height. To solve for x (the depth of the hole for a 17-foot tree), we cross-multiply and divide:

(3.25 feet depth * 17 feet height) / 5.7 feet height = x feet depth.

By calculating this, we get:

x = (3.25 * 17) / 5.7 = 55.25 / 5.7 = 9.69 feet.

Steven earns extra money babysitting. He charges $31.25 for 5 hours and $50 for 8 hours. How much would Steven charge for 3 hours?

please help me out on this!

Answers

Just do 50 divided by 8 which would equal 6.25
Then multiply that by 3 and get 18.75
That is your answer

Answer:

$18.75

Step-by-step explanation:

This is kind of a trick question. Instead of giving you 1 example they give you two.

Basically, this question is trying to test your reading skills.

31.25 is being charged for 5 hours. So, how much is being charged in 1 hour?

well, dividing 31.25 by 5 brings us to the result of 6.25. Meaning 1 hour of babysitting costs $6.25

Now that we know the cost of 1 hour, we need to multiply this by 3.

6.25 x 3 = $18.75

we can also 'test' our answer to make sure it is correct by multiplying 6.25 by 8. (doing so is confirming 8 hours of work is $50 at $6.25 per hour)

There are (713)3 ⋅ 70 strawberries in a field. What is the total number of strawberries in the field?

A. 1

B. 7 ^16

C. 7 ^17

D. 7 ^39

Answers

Answer:

[tex]7^{39}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that there are [tex](7^{13})^3\cdot 7^0[/tex] strawberries in a field.

Using exponent property [tex]a^0=1[/tex], we will get:

[tex](7^{13})^3\cdot 1[/tex]

[tex](7^{13})^3[/tex]

Using exponent property [tex](a^b)^c=a^{b*c}[/tex], we will get:

[tex]7^{13*3}[/tex]

[tex]7^{39}[/tex]

Therefore, the total number of strawberries in the field is [tex]7^{39}[/tex].

Two workers produced 86 parts during their working shift. The first worker produced 15% more parts than the second one. How many parts did each worker produce?

Answers

Final answer:

The second worker produced 40 parts and the first worker produced 46 parts.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can set up a system of equations. Let x represent the number of parts produced by the second worker. Since the first worker produced 15% more parts, the number of parts produced by the first worker can be represented as 1.15x. The total number of parts produced by both workers is 86, so we can set up the equation:

x + 1.15x = 86

Combining like terms, we get 2.15x = 86. Divide both sides of the equation by 2.15 to find x:

x = 40

Substituting this value back into the equation, we find that the second worker produced 40 parts. The first worker produced 15% more, so they produced 40 + 0.15(40) = 46 parts.

Lisa's pet shop has 2 fish tanks. Tank A contains smaller fish who are fed 1 gram of food each per day. Tank B contains larger fish who are fed 2 grams of food each per day. If Tank B contains 2/3 the number of fish that Tank A contains, will Lisa ever feed both tanks the same amount of food? How many of each type of fish of fish would she need to have?

Answers

Answer:

in tank A, we need 1 gram of food per fish.

In tank B, we need 2 gramms of food per fish.

If Na is the number of fish in tank A and Nb is the number of fish in tank B.

Then, the amount of food that the tank A needs is:

Na*1g of food

The tank B needs:

Nb*2g of food

And we know that Nb = 2/3*Na

we can replace it and get:

2/3*Na*2g

Then if both tanks need the same amount of food, we should have that both of these equations are equal:

food of tank A = food of tank B

Na*1g = (2/3)*Na*2g

we solve this for Na

Na = (2/3)*Na*2g/1g = (2/3)*Na*2 = (4/3)*Na

Na = (4/3)*Na

This equation has no solution, and from here we can conclude that if Nb = 2/3*Na, she will never give the same amount of food to both tanks.

b) knowing that the amount of food neded in tank A is half the amount for tank B, then we need the doulbe of fish in the tank A than in the tank B

Na = 2*Nb

Lisa cannot feed both tanks the same amount of food under the given conditions. If Tank A has 'a' smaller fish and Tank B has 2/3 of the number of fish in Tank A, then Tank A would require 'a' grams of food while Tank B would require 4/3 'a' grams, which are not the same.

The student is asking whether Lisa can ever feed the same amount of food to both Tank A and Tank B, given that the larger fish in Tank B eat 2 grams of food per day and there are 2/3 the number of fish in Tank B compared to Tank A, which contains smaller fish that eat 1 gram of food per day. To determine if there is a scenario where Lisa can feed both tanks the same amount of food, we will need to set up an algebraic equation.

Step-by-step calculation:

Let the number of smaller fish in Tank A be represented by the variable a.The number of larger fish in Tank B would then be 2/3a as Tank B contains 2/3 the number of fish that Tank A contains.Calculate the total food for Tank A: a fish × 1 gram/fish = grams.Calculate the total food for Tank B: 2/3a fish × 2 grams/fish = 4/3a grams.Set the total food for both tanks equal to each other to find the condition when Lisa feeds the same amount to both tanks: a = 4/3a.Solve for a: This equation has no solution because Tank A cannot contain the same number of grams of food as 4/3 times itself.

Therefore, Lisa can never feed both tanks the same amount of food unless one of the conditions changes, like the amount of food fed to the fish or the ratio of fish between the tanks.
