5/6 of the paper is devoted to news and pictures

first I made the fraction have equal denominators which was 6 by doing that I multiplyed the numerator and the denominator

1/2
1×3=3
2×3=6
therefore 1/2 being equivalent to 3/6


1/3
1×2=2
3×2=6
therefore 1/3 being equivalent to 2/6

now you would be able to add the numerators, so 2+3=5
therefore being 5/6 of the paper is devoted to news and pictures

larisa [96]

Answer:

45 minutes is 3/4 of an hour, so find 3/4 of 12.  

Divide 12 by 4 to get 1/4 of 12. That is 3.  

3/4 is 3 of those, so multiply it by 3 to get 9.

So, she will have biked 9 miles.

A drug is eliminated from the body through urine. Suppose that for a dose of 10 milligrams, the amount A(t) remaining in the bod
adell [148]

Answer: a - 4.512 hours

b - 1.94 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

a) A(t) = 10 (0.7)^t

To determine when 2mg is left in the body

We would have,

A(t) = 2, therefore

2 = 10(0.7)^t

0.7^t =2÷10

0.7^t = 0.2

Take the log of both sides,

Log (0.7)^t = log 0.2

t log 0.7 = log 0.2

t = log 0.2/ 0.7

t = 4.512 hours

Thus it will take 4.512 hours for 2mg to be left in the body.

b) Half life

Let A(t) = 1/2 A(0)

Thus,

1/2 A(0) = A(0)0.7^t

Divide both sides by A(0)

1/2 = 0.7^t

0.7^t = 0.5

Take log of both sides

Log 0.7^t = log 0.5

t log 0.7 = log 0.5

t = log 0.5/log 0.7

t = 1.94 hours

Therefore, the half life of the drug is 1.94 hours
