What is Subtraction?Subtraction can be done for any numbers or algebraic expressions. It is the process of taking out certain value from a given amount of number.
The process of subtraction can also be termed as finding difference.
1) Let the number be x.
product of nine and a number means 9x.
three times the number means 3x.
The difference between the product of nine and a number and three times the number means that 9x - 3x.
9x - 3x = 6x
2) Let the number be x.
five times a number is 5x
four times the number is 4x
The difference between five times a number and four times the number is 5x - 4x = x.
Hence the numbers are 6x and x respectively.

A student completes 2/5 of a science project in 3/4 hour. At this rate what fraction of the project can the student complete per hour?
[tex]\begin{array}{ccll} completion&hours\\ \cline{1-2} \frac{2}{5}&\frac{3}{4}\\[1em] x&1 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{~~ \frac{2}{5}~~}{x}=\cfrac{~~ \frac{3}{4}~~}{1}\implies \cfrac{2}{5x}=\cfrac{3}{4} \\\\\\ 8=15x\implies \cfrac{8}{15}=x[/tex]
The fraction of the project that the student can complete per hour is 8/15
What is unit rate?There is independent quantity, and a quantity which depends on it (dependent quantity). When independent quantity moves by a unit measurement (single unit increment), the increment in dependent quantity is called rate of increment of dependent quantity per unit increment in independent quantity.
For this case the problem is asking about the amount of project that can be completed per hour.
The independent quantity is the time spent by student on the project.
The dependent quantity here is the amount of the project completed by the student in the time spent.
Thus, we get the unit rate of amount of project completed per unit amount of time (unit time is one hour here) as:
[tex]R = \dfrac{\text{Amount of project completed}}{\text{Time taken}} = \dfrac{2/5}{3/4} = \dfrac{2}{5} \times \dfrac{4}{3} = \dfrac{8}{15} \: \rm project / hour[/tex]
We used the fact that:
[tex]\dfrac{a}{b} = a \times \dfrac{1}{b}\\\\and\\\dfrac{1}{a/b} = \dfrac{b}{a}[/tex]
Thus, that student can complete the considered project's 8/15 part per hour.

A van is delivering sacks of potatoes to two different shops in the ratio of 3:7.
One shop has 28 more bags than the other.
How many bags of potatoes are on the van at the start.
69
How many bags of potatoes are on the van at the start.
The total number of bags the van have at the starting is 70.
What is ratio?Ratio is a term that is used to compare two or more numbers. It is used to indicate how big or small a quantity is when compared to another.
According to the given question.
The sacks of potatoes delivered in two different shops are in the ratio 3:7.
Also, one shop has 28 more bags than the other.
Let the number of bags of potatoes at one shop be x.
Then, the bags of potatoes in another shop = x + 28
Therefore,
[tex]\frac{x}{28 + x } =\frac{3}{7}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]7x = 3(28 + x)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]7x = 84 + 3x[/tex]
⇒ [tex]4x = 84[/tex]
⇒[tex]x = 21[/tex]
So, the total number of bags
[tex]=x + (x + 28)[/tex]

All of the examples define relations between a domain and range.
Such a relation will be a function if and only if each value in the domain corresponds to at most one value in the range.
In the first example, the value
−
1
in the domain is associated with two values in the range, namely
−
5
and
1
.
In the second example, the value
−
1
in the domain is associated with two values in the range, namely
7
and
1
.
In the third example, the value
3
in the domain is associated with two values in the range, namely
2
and
4
.
In the fourth example, each of the values in the domain is associated with one value in the range, so this describes a function. Note however that the values
−

and
−
7
are both mapped to

(a) How would you characterize the relationship between the hours spent on homework and the test scores? Explain.
(b) Paul uses the function y = 8x + 40 to model the situation. What score does the model predict for 3 h of homework?
(c) What does the number 40 in Part (b) mean in the context of the situation?
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) How would you characterize the relationship between the hours spent on homework and the test scores? Explain
For this case what we see is that we have a scatter diagram, which we can model using a linear trend defining the following variables:
x: number of hours studied.
y: test scores.
The linear relationship would be of the form:
y = mx + b
(b) Paul uses the function y = 8x + 40 to model the situation. What score does the model predict for 3 h of homework?
y = 8x + 40
For three hours of study we have that the note would be approximate:
y = 8 * (3) + 40
y = 64
(c) What does the number 40 in Part (b) mean in the context of the situation?
The number 40 means that if you do not devote any study time, then you expect the test score to be 40.

What single amount on April 1, 2012, is equivalent to a series of equal, semiannual cash flows of $5200 that starts with a cash flow on January 1, 2010, and ends with a cash flow on January 1, 2019? The interest rate is 6% and compounding is quarterly?
The single amount on April 1, 2012 that is equivalent to a series of equal, semiannual cash flows of $5200 is; $57,023.2
Compound Interest FactorWe are given;
Semi annual cash Flow; A_sa = $5200
Interest rate; r = 6%
From April 1, 2012 to January 1 2019 is 6.75 years
Thus; Period; T = 6.75 years
Cash flows is semi annual. Thus; t_a = 1/2
Thus; n_sa = 6.75 * 2
n_sa = 13.5
i_sa = 6% * 1/4 = 1.5%
Thus;
Single amount = 5200 * (P/A, 1.5%, 13.5)
From compound interest tables, P/A at n = 13.5 and at i = 3% by interpolation gives 10.966. Thus;
Single amount = 5200 * 12.137
Single amount = $63,112.4

Draw arcs on either side of a given point on the line.
Draw arcs on either side of a given point off the line.
The necessary step for constructing parallel lines is to draw a line that intersects the first line using a straightedge.
What are parallel lines?Two lines are said to be parallel in a plane if they do not intersect each other even if extended till infinite in both the directions.
Steps to construct a parallel line using ruler and compass are:
Draw a line segment AB and mark any point P above the line ABDraw a line that intersects the first line using a straightedge and mark it as Point X. Now we get a line AB and a transverse PX.Open a compass more than half of the distance between PX. Using this, place the compass on Point X and scribe an arc MN on the transverse PX. Similarly, using the same distance, scribe an arc by keeping the compass on Point P and mark it as EF. The point where EF cuts PX is Q. Using this Q as a center, draw an arc marked R on EF.Join this R and P and extend the line segment and mark is as C and D.The resultant image is given below.To learn more about parallel lines, refer:

Kevin spins a spinner like the one shown and flips a coin. The probability of landing on purple and heads is 1/8. How many sections of the spinner should be colored purple?
===============================================
Explanation:
Let x be the number of purple sections.
x/8 represents the probability of landing on purple since we have 8 equal sections total of this pizza.
Multiply this with the probability of landing on heads (1/2)
(1/2)*(x/8) = x/16
x/16 is the probability of getting a purple section and having the coin land on heads.
Set that equal to the 1/8 mentioned in the instructions and solve for x.
x/16 = 1/8
8x = 16
x = 16/8
x = 2
Or you can solve like this
x/16 = 1/8
x/16 = 2/16
x = 2
Kevin needs to shade 2 of the sections purple.
Side note: It's a bit unfortunate that the entire paper is purple overall. Though I'm probably being a bit nitpicky right now.

find y=mx+b for line parallel to AB.
The line that is parallel will have the same slope as line AB:
the slope of line AB is
m=(8-3)/(-10-2)
=5/-12
=-5/12
Since the line going through X is parallel the vertical distance of the new line to AB is the same for all values of the domain(x-axis).
at x=-5 the point X has the y value of 10 which is 4 more than the y value for AB based on the graph.
To find the intercept b of the line going through X that is parallel to AB we just add 4 to the intercept of AB, which is 4 so
4+4=8
