Answer:
It's wrong because you don't add fractions the way you would add normal numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
To add 1/5 to 1/2 you would need to write all numerators above the least common denominator which is 10. Then add the numerators, 5 + 2, which gives you 7/10.
A candy company sells peanut brittle and almond bark. The information for both types of candy is shown.
graph labeled Peanut Brittle with x axis labeled weight in ounces and y axis labeled cost in dollars with a line from point 0 comma 0 going through 10 comma 10
Almond Bark
Weight (ounces) 2 6 14
Cost (dollars) 3 9 21
Determine how much more one candy costs per ounce than the other candy.
Peanut brittle costs $0.50 more per ounce than almond bark.
Almond bark costs $0.50 more per ounce than peanut brittle.
Peanut brittle costs $0.33 more per ounce than almond bark.
Almond bark costs $0.33 more per ounce than peanut brittle.
The difference between the cost of one candy per ounce and the other candy is that: Almond bark costs $0.50 more per ounce than peanut brittle.
How to determine the cost of candy?Mathematically, a direct proportion can be represented the following mathematical expression:
y = kx
Where:
x represents the weight in ounces of a candy.y represents the cost in dollars of a candy.k represents the constant of proportionality.Next, we would determine the constant of proportionality (k) for each candy as follows:
For Peanut Brittle, we have the following:
Constant of proportionality (k) = 10/10
Constant of proportionality (k) = 1.0
For Almond Bark, we have the following:
Constant of proportionality (k) = 3/2
Constant of proportionality (k) = 1.5
Next, we would determine the difference in cost:
Difference in cost = 1.5 - 1.0
Difference in cost = $0.50.

What is the slope of the line?

The slope of the line is -3 and the equation of the line formed by the points is y + 3x = 6.
From the table we can see that the line passes through the points:
(-6,6) ,(5,-3) ,(4,0) and (3,3) .
Let us consider any two points on the line (4,0) and (3,3) .
We know that the slope of the line can be found by using the intercept formula
Hence slope = (3-0) / (3-4) = 3/ -1 = -3
Now the equation of the line is :
y - 3 = -3(x-3)
or, y - 3 = -3x +9
or, y + 3x = 6
The letter m is frequently used to represent the slope of an object that resembles a line in the plane that contains the x and y axes. The slope is defined as the difference in two independent locations along the line expressed in y coordinate less by the equivalent difference in x coordinate.
Therefore slope of the line is -3.

2. A local grocery store received 240 turkeys the week prior to Thanksgiving. On Sunday,
they sold 3/8 of them. How many turkeys were sold on Sunday? Solve the problem
using the Draw a Diagram strategy.
The number of turkeys that they sold on Sunday is 90 turkeys
Total number of turkeys = 240
On Sunday, they sold 3/8 of them
The fraction of turkeys they sold on Sunday = 3/8
To find the number of turkeys that they sold on Sunday we have to find the 3/8 fraction of 240
Then,
The number of turkeys that they sold on Sunday = Total number of turkeys × The fraction of turkeys they sold on Sunday
Substitute the values in the equation
The number of turkeys that they sold on Sunday = 240 × 3/8
= 240 × 0.375
= 90 turkeys
Hence, the number of turkeys that they sold on Sunday is 90 turkeys

√5/12
number 2 is a fraction btw
The simplest radical form of the radicals given are:
1. The simplest radical form of √175 is 5 √7.
2. The simplest radical form of √5 / 12 is √5 / 12.
First, let us understand the radical:
A radical can also be called a surd. A surd is an irrational number. We say that it is irrational because it can not be expressed as a terminating decimal.
1.
We are given:
√175
We need to write in the simplest radical form.
175 can be written as:
175 = 5 * 5 * 7
√175 = √ 5 * 5 * 7
√175 = √ 5 * 5 * √7
√175 = 5 √7
So, the simplest form of √175 is 5 √7.
2.
We are given:
√5 / 12
We need to write in the simplest radical form.
√5 / 12 is already in the simplest form.
So, the simplest form of √5 / 12 is √5 / 12.
Thus, the simplest radical form of the radicals given are:

Solve the equation: u^6 − 49 u^4 = 0 .
The given equation solved for u is u = 7 or u = -7
Solving an equationFrom the question, we are to solve the given equation.
The given equation is
u^6 − 49 u^4 = 0
First, we will write the equation properly
The given equation written properly is
u⁶ - 49u⁴ = 0
Now,
To solve the equation, we will determine the value(s) of the variable. The variable in the given equation is u.
Thus,
We will solve for u
u⁶ - 49u⁴ = 0
Add 49u⁴ to both sides of the equation
u⁶ = 49u⁴
Divide both sides by u⁴
u⁶/u⁴ = 49u⁴/u⁴
u² = 49
Then,
u²- 49 = 0
u² - 7² = 0
Factorize by applying the rule for difference of two squares
(u + 7)(u - 7) = 0
Then,
u + 7 = 0 OR u - 7 = 0
u = -7 OR u = 7
Hence, the value of u is -7 OR 7

Ken, Mike, and Ariel are eating out at their favorite restaurant. They each order a sandwich combo and plan to split the bill evenly. The service they receive at the restaurant is amazing, so they decide to leave a 30% tip. Their bill total is $50.88 before tax. If Florida’s sales tax is 6%, how much will each person pay? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
Each individual paid the sum of $23.4 including state tax at the restaurant
PercentageIn mathematics, a percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. If we have to calculate percent of a number, divide the number by the whole and multiply by 100. Hence, the percentage means, a part per hundred. The word per cent means per 100. It is represented by the symbol “%".
In the problem, their total bill is $50.88 and they gave a 30% tip
We should fid 30% of 50.88
0.3 * 50.88 = $15.264
30% of $50.88 is $15.264
If we add this up and then find the state tax to it.
15.264 + 50.88 = 66.144.
Find 6% of 66.144 to determine the state tax.
0.06 * 66.144 = 3.96864
The total amount spent is 66.144 + 3.96864 = 70.11264
We can divide this equally amongst the three people to get the individual payment = 70.11264/3 = 23.37088
Rounding this to the nearest cent, we have 23.4.
We can say each person paid $23.4 at the end of the day
