In order to subtract the fractions, they need to have the same denominator.

So, to put the fractions in the same denominator, let's find the least common multiple between them:

$\begin{gathered} 16\to2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2 \\ 8\to2\cdot2\cdot2 \\ \\ \text{LCM}\to2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2=16 \end{gathered}$

So, calculating the subtraction, we have:

$\frac{13}{16}-\frac{3}{8}=\frac{13}{16}-\frac{6}{16}=\frac{7}{16}$

So the resulting fraction is 7/16.

Find the general solution of the given differential equation. cos^2(x)sin(x)dy/dx+(cos^3(x))y=1 g

eimsori [14]

If the given differential equation is

$\cos^2(x) \sin(x) \dfrac{dy}{dx} + \cos^3(x) y = 1$

then multiply both sides by $\frac1{\cos^2(x)}$ :

$\sin(x) \dfrac{dy}{dx} + \cos(x) y = \sec^2(x)$

The left side is the derivative of a product,

$\dfrac{d}{dx}\left[\sin(x)y\right] = \sec^2(x)$

Integrate both sides with respect to $x$ , recalling that $\frac{d}{dx}\tan(x) = \sec^2(x)$ :

$\displaystyle \int \frac{d}{dx}\left[\sin(x)y\right] \, dx = \int \sec^2(x) \, dx$

$\sin(x) y = \tan(x) + C$

Solve for $y$ :

$\boxed{y = \sec(x) + C \csc(x)}which follows from [tex]\tan(x)=\frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}$ .

The cost (c) to hire a dog trainer is varies directly with the amount of time (h) in hours spent training the dog.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Part A) The proportional equation is $c=55h$

Part B) 8 hours of training

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

Let

c -----> the cost to hire a dog

h ----> the amount of time in hours

The linear equation is equal to

$c=kh$

Sue spent $660 on 12 hours of obedience training for her dog Muffin

Find the value of k (constant of proportionality)

$k=y/x$

substitute the values

$k=660/12=55$

therefore

The linear equation is

$c=55h$

For $c=\$440$

Find the value of h

substitute in the equation and solve for h

$440=55h$

$h=440/55=8\ hours$

Find the mode: 16,12,10,15,7,916

Airida [17]

The mode is the value from a given set of data that occurs most often. It is the data with the highest frequency.

Given:

16,12,10,15,7,9,16

Form the above data given;

Rearranging for easy identification, we have;

7,9,10,12,15,16,16

$\begin{gathered} 7\text{ appears once} \\ 9\text{ appears once} \\ 10\text{ appears once} \\ 12\text{ appears once} \\ 15\text{ appears once} \\ 16\text{ appears twice} \end{gathered}$

From the above, we can deduce that the mode is 16 because it appears the most often. It appears twice.

Therefore, the mode is 16.
