Len walks 3/10 mile in the morning. He walks 2/5 mile in the afternoon to a friends house. Len says that he walks a total of 5/15 mile in the morning and afternoon

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: No he walks 7/10 of a mile
you have to make 2/5 have a common denominator with 3/10
so 2×2=4 (numerator)
2×5=10 (denominator)
4/10+3/10= 7/10
since you only add the numerator because the denominator makes it a like term

A farmer applied different types of fertilizer to two different sections of his watermelon field. At the end of the growing season, the farmer randomly weighed 20 watermelons from each section. The table shows the mean and the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the weights for each fertilizer.Fertilizer Mean (lb) MAD
1 24 3
2 22 2
Calculate the means-to-MAD ratio. Can the farmer conclude that Fertilizer 1 generally produces heavier watermelons?

Select from the drop-down menus to correctly answer the question.

The farmer (can, cannot) conclude that Fertilizer 1 generally produces heavier watermelons because the distributions of weights for the two fertilizers are (identical, somewhat similar, similar, different).

Answers

the mean is the average weight.
 the MAD is how spread out the weights are from the mean, the higher the number the more spread out, which means you could have more lower weights than higher weights, of more heavy than light

 so fertilizer 1 had a higher average weight ( 24 is greater than 22)
 and the difference in MAD is only 1 ( 3-2)

so the farmer CAN conclude , because the distribution is SOMEWHAT SIMILAR


Answer:

cannot and similar

You can turn these numbers into improper fractions. 5 1/3 can be changed to 16/3. 3 5/6 can be changed to 23/6. So now your equation is 16/3 - 23/6= ? 
To do this we have to have common denominators. Since 3 times 2 can make 6, which is the other denominator then we can multiply the top which is 16 by 2 as well. This is because whatever you do to the top you have to do to the top. 16 times 2 is 32. Now we have 32/6-23/6. The denominator is going to stay the same so you don't have to worry about it. Take the numerators and subtract them. 
32-23=? 
You should have gotten 9. 
So now you have 9 over 6. You can simplify this with a common factor which in this case is 3. 9 divided by 3 is 3. 6 divided by 3 is 2. You now have 3/2. You can simplify this back into a mixed number and that would give 1 1/2. This is because 2, the denominator, goes into 3 once with a remainder of 1. 1 over 2 is 1/2. 
Your answer is 1 1/2.
