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

4) (Assume AR is tangent)<br>Given: AR 12<br>SR - 7.7<br>Find: cs (Round to nearest tenth.)​
andreev551 [17]

The length of CS is 11.0

Explanation:

Given that the length of the tangent AR is 12

The length of SR is 7.7

To find: The length of CS

The<u> tangent secant theorem</u> states that "if a tangent and a secant are drawn from an external point to a circle, then the square of the measure of the tangent is equal to the product of the measures of the secant’s external part and the entire secant."

Applying the tangent secant theorem, we have,

AR^2=SR\times RC

Rewriting the above equation, we get,

AR^2=SR(SR+SC)

Substituting the values, we get,

12^2=7.7(7.7+CS)

Simplifying, we have,

144=59.29+7.7CS

Subtracting both sides by 59.29, we get,

84.71=7.7CS

Dividing both sides by 7.7, we have,

11.0013=CS

Rounding off to the nearest tenth, we get,

11.0=CS

Thus, the length of CS is 11.0

3x^2 Type of expression coefficients and constant
Contact [7]

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

3x²

This term represents a monomial expression. Mono- means one. This term is by itself. It has no other term added or subtracted to it.

The coefficient of this term is 3 because it is the number that the variable is connected to.

There are no constants because this is a monomial expression.

PLEASE HELP!!! WORTH 20 POINTS!
Mkey [24]

Answer:

a. 1 1/2 (or 3/2)

b. 2/3

c. 1

d. 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: (1,1) (7,5)

To determine the slope, you will use the equation m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1). Keep in mind that it doesn't matter what point you use for (x1, y1) or (x2, y2).

Let's plug in the numbers for part a:

m=(7-1)/(5-1)

Let's then solve the problems inside the parentheses:

m=6/4

And finally, we simplify:

m=3/2 (or 1 1/2 depending on what your teacher wants for an answer)

For these others, I will just go through the steps and not explain them, if you need help or don't understand something I'm doing, either look back at what I did for part a or comment on this answer.

Part B: (1,1) (5,7)

m=(5-1)/(7-1)

m=(4/6)

m=2/3

Part C: (2,5) (-1,2)

m=(-1-2)/(2-5)

m=(-3/-3)

m=1

Part D: (2,5) (-7,-4)

m=(-7-2)/(-4-5)

m=(-9/-9)

m=1
