Subtract 13/16 from 3/8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Artemon [7]2 years ago
4 0

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.

) A coin collection consisting of pennies, dimes, and quarters totals 45 coins. The number of
Sloan [31]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $7.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p, d, q represent the numbers of pennies, dimes, and quarters in the collection, respectively.

  p + d + q = 45 . . . . . . . . there are 45 coins in the collection

  2p +5 = q . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 more than twice the number of pennies

  p + 4 = d . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 more than the number of pennies

Substituting the last two equations into the first gives ...

  p +(p +4) +(2p +5) = 45

  4p = 36 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 9

  p = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

  d = 9 +4 = 13

  q = 2(9) +5 = 23

The value of the collection is ...

  23(0.25) +13(0.10) +9(0.01) = 5.75 +1.30 +0.09 = 7.14

The coin collection is worth $7.14.

For what value of "a" will the product shown below have a purely imaginary value? (Show work please)
MakcuM [25]
If you expand out the brackets you get this,

(4+5i)(a+2i) = 4a + (5a)i + 8i - 10

The -10 comes from 5i * 2i.
Squaring i becomes -1.

Let's group the real stuff together,
and imaginary separately,

(4a - 10) + (5a + 8)i

For this to be purely imaginary,
the real part needs to be zero.

Therefore 4a - 10 = 0

Solve for a.

Which of the following shows a circle circumscribed about a triangle?
Dima020 [189]

Answer: The first option.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition,  when a circle circumscribed about a triangle it passes through all the vertices of that triangle (As you know, a triangle has three vertices).

2. As you can see in the figure attached, the only circle that passes through three vertices of the triangle is the the circle of the first optin. Therefore, you can conclude that that circle is circumscribed about the triangle.
