Estimate the sum or difference.

dangina [55]

1) $\frac{4}{6}+\frac{1}{8}=\frac{19}{24}$

2) $\frac{2}{6}+\frac{7}{8}=\frac{29}{24}$

3) $\frac{5}{6}-\frac{3}{8}=\frac{11}{24}$

4) $\frac{4}{6}+\frac{3}{8}=\frac{25}{24}$

5) $\frac{7}{8}-\frac{5}{6}=\frac{1}{24}$

6) $\frac{1}{6}+\frac{7}{8}=\frac{25}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the sum of two fractions, we first have to find the lowest common denominator of the two fractions, then multiply the numerator of each fraction by the ratio between the lowest common denominator and the original denominator, and then add/subtract the two new numerators.

$\frac{4}{6}+\frac{1}{8}=$

Here the lowest common denominator between 6 and 8 is 24,

So we have to rewrite each fraction as having denominator 24: this means that we have to multiply both numerator and denominator of the 1st fraction by 4 (because 24/6=4), and both numerator and denominator of the 2nd fraction by 3 (because 24/8=3).

So the new numerators of the two fractions are:

$4\cdot 4 = 16\\1\cdot 3 = 3$

The expression then becomes:

$\frac{4}{6}+\frac{1}{8}=\frac{16}{24}+\frac{3}{24}=\frac{16+3}{24}=\frac{19}{24}$

$\frac{2}{6}+\frac{7}{8}=$

Here the lowest common denominator between 6 and 8 is again 24,

so we have again to multiply both numerator and denominator of the 1st fraction by 4, and both numerator and denominator of the 2nd fraction by 3.

So the new numerators of the two fractions are:

$2\cdot 4 = 8\\7\cdot 3 = 21$

And we get:

$\frac{2}{6}+\frac{7}{8}=\frac{8}{24}+\frac{21}{24}=\frac{8+21}{24}=\frac{29}{24}$

$\frac{5}{6}-\frac{3}{8}$

The denominators are the same, so the lowest common denominator is always 24. So we can adopt the same procedure, and new numerators are:

$5\cdot 4 = 20\\3\cdot 3 = 9$

And so:

$\frac{5}{6}-\frac{3}{8}=\frac{20}{24}-\frac{9}{24}=\frac{20-9}{24}=\frac{11}{24}$

$\frac{4}{6}+\frac{3}{8}=$

Using the same lowest common denominator, 24, the new numerators are:

$4\cdot 4 = 16\\3\cdot 3 = 9$

And so we can rewrite the expression as

$\frac{4}{6}+\frac{3}{8}=\frac{16}{24}+\frac{9}{24}=\frac{16+9}{24}=\frac{25}{24}$

$\frac{7}{8}-\frac{5}{6}=$

Again, the lowest common denominator is 24. This time the denominator of the 1st fraction is 8 while the denominator of the 2nd fraction is 6, so we have to multiply the numerator of the 1st fraction by 3 and the numerator of the 2nd fraction by 4.

We get:

$7\cdot 3 = 21\\5\cdot 4 = 20$

So the expression will be rewritten as:

$\frac{7}{8}-\frac{5}{6}=\frac{21}{24}-\frac{20}{24}=\frac{21-20}{24}=\frac{1}{24}$

$\frac{1}{6}+\frac{7}{8}=$

Here the situation is similar to the first 4 exercises: using 24 as lowest common denominator, the numerators become

$1\cdot 4 = 4\\7\cdot 3 = 21$

So the expression becomes

$\frac{1}{6}+\frac{7}{8}=\frac{4}{24}+\frac{21}{24}=\frac{4+21}{24}=\frac{25}{24}$

Which fraction is equal to k in the equation below? <br>1\3 / 2= k

Nitella [24]

Answer:

0_10 =0_2

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the following to base 2:

0_10

Hint: | Starting with zero, raise 2 to increasingly larger integer powers until the result exceeds 0.

Determine the powers of 2 that will be used as the places of the digits in the base-2 representation of 0:

Power | \!$\*SuperscriptBox[\(Base$, $Power$]\) | Place value

0 | 2^0 | 1

Hint: | The powers of 2 (in ascending order) are associated with the places from right to left.

Label each place of the base-2 representation of 0 with the appropriate power of 2:

Place | | | 2^0 |

| | | ↓ |

0_10 | = | ( | __ | )_(_2)

Hint: | Divide 0 by 2 and find the remainder. The remainder is the first digit.

Determine the value of 0 in base 2:

0/2=0 with remainder 0

Place | | | 2^0 |

| | | ↓ |

0_10 | = | ( | 0 | )_(_2)

Hint: | Express 0_10 in base 2.

The number 0_10 is equivalent to 0_2 in base 2.

Answer: 0_10 =0_2

What is the distance between the points (-4,2) and (3,-5)

34kurt

Answer:

7√2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points having coordinates (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by,

$\sqrt{ {(x2 - x1)}^{2} + {(y2 - y1)}^{2} }$

Here, x1=-4 and y1=2

x2=3 and y2=-5

$\sqrt{ {(3 - ( - 4))}^{2} + {( - 5 - 2)}^{2} }$

$\sqrt{ {(3 + 4)}^{2} + {( - 7)}^{2} }$

$\sqrt{ {(7)}^{2} + {( - 7)}^{2} }$

$\sqrt{49 + 49} = 7 \sqrt{2}$

Write a linear function f with f(−10)=4 and f(−2)=4.

Orlov [11]

f(-10) = 4

Since y is constant while x isnt we just dont need to put x

f(x) = 4

I go to a baseball field and survey the people in the stands, asking what is your favorite sport. Is this a fair sample of peopl

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you go to a baseball park and ask what their favorite sport is most will probably say baseball. Just as if you go to a basketball court, most would respond with basketball as their favorite sport. I suggest not going to anything related to sports and asking random people.
