Answer 1
Andy is wrong, on tuesday they read the same amount, but on wednesday mike read more than andy because 1/3>1/5 so mike read more altogether, hope this helps :) plz give branliest if it does
Answer 2

In the second attempt, Mike read (1/3)rd of the book which is more than

(1/5)th of the book Andy read.

What is a fraction?

A fraction is written in the form of p/q, where q ≠ 0.

Fractions are of two types they are proper fractions in which the numerator is smaller than the denominator and improper fractions where the numerator is greater than the denominator.

Given,  Mike read 2/4 of the book on Tuesday and 1/3 of the book on Wednesday.

Therefore in total, Mike read (2/4 + 1/3) of the book.

= (6 + 4)/12.

= 10/12.

= 5/6 of the book.

Also given, Andy read 1/2 of the book on Tuesday and 1/5 of the book on Wednesday.

Therefore in total, Andy read (1/2 + 1/5) of the book.

= (5 + 2)/10.

= 7/10.

As the fractions (2/4) which Mike read and (1/2) Andy read they have read the same amount of the book but in the next time Mike read 1/3 of the book and 1/5 and we know 1/3 is greater than 1/5.

So, Mike read more of the book than Andy.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct pairs of equivalent expressions are given below.

⇒ (5 + 2b)+(2b + 3/2) =  4b + 13/2

⇒ (-10 + b)+(7b - 5) =  8b - 15

⇒ (-14 + 3/2b)-(1 + 8/2b) = -15 - 5/2b

⇒ (7/2b - 3)-(8 + 6b) => -5/2b - 11

What is the expression?

An expression or mathematical expression is a finite combination of symbols that is well-formed according to rules that depend on the context.

We have given that,

All the expression are,

(5 + 2b)+(2b + 3/2)

(-14 + 3/2b)-(1 + 8/2b)

(-10 + b)+(7b -5)

(7/2b - 3)-(8 + 6b)

Now, We have to determine the equivalent expression as;

⇒ (5 + 2b)+(2b + 3/2) =  4b + 13/2

⇒ (-10 + b)+(7b - 5) =  8b - 15

⇒ (-14 + 3/2b)-(1 + 8/2b) = -15 - 5/2b

⇒ (7/2b - 3)-(8 + 6b) => -5/2b - 11

Thus, The correct pairs of equivalent expressions are given below.

⇒ (5 + 2b)+(2b + 3/2) =  4b + 13/2

⇒ (-10 + b)+(7b - 5) =  8b - 15

⇒ (-14 + 3/2b)-(1 + 8/2b) = -15 - 5/2b

⇒ (7/2b - 3)-(8 + 6b) => -5/2b - 11

you will do area for a triangle . when multiplying with the (x+9) you will just multiply the number infront of the parentheses by both the x and the 9. for example the 60 would be 60(x+9) which would be 60x+540

plug in 69 to the exterior angle which is 2x. 2(69)=138°

(2) (one-sixth) (Negative four-fifths) = (StartFraction 2 over 1 EndFraction) (one-sixth) (negative four-fifths) = StartFraction (2) (1) (negative 4) over (1) (6) (5) EndFraction = Negative StartFraction 8 over Negative 30 EndFraction = StartFraction 4 over 15 EndFraction

Nico is correct because he knew that Negative four-fifths = StartFraction negative 4 over negative 5 EndFraction.

1. To find slope use the slope equation which would be (3 - -1)/ (5-3). The slope is m = 4\2 which is m = 2

2. Plug in one of the points to find the y-intercept. Using the point (5,3) , you would plug this point into the slope intercept equation, along with the slope which was found. 3= (2 x 5) +b. Solving this equation b=-7

3. The slop intercept form is y = 2x - 7
