If you don't want to mess with adding and subtracting obscure fractions, you can let your calculator do it.

I find it convenient to add the integer parts separately from the fractional part. Usually, only a slight adjustment is needed at the end.

Integer parts:

... 170 +25 -10 -3 = 182

Fractional parts:

... 2/3 +5/12 -1/4 -1/2 = (8 +5 -3 -6)/12 = 4/12 = 1/3 (added to the above)

Weight after 2 weeks of practice: 182 1/3 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to show the graph

step-by-step explanation:

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
