First, add the whole numbers

1 + 2 = 3

Second, add both fractions.

3/10 + 5/10 = 8/10

Third, simplify the fraction.

4/5

Fourth, put the number back together.

3 4/5

As you can see, 3 4/5 ≠ 5.

Best of Luck!

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Let's try to add these two mixed numbers together. We have 1\frac{3}{10} and 2\frac{5}{10}.

First, add the nonfractional parts together:

1 + 2 = 3

Now add the fractional parts. Because 3/10 and 5/10 already have a common denominator (10), we can simply add the numerators together:

\frac{3}{10} +\frac{5}{10} =\frac{3+5}{10} =\frac{8}{10}

Add 8/10 to our whole number 3:

3 + 8/10 = 3\frac{8}{10} =3\frac{4}{5}

Clearly, 3\frac{4}{5} ≠ 5, which is why 1 3/10 + 2 5/10 ≠ 5.

Hope this helps!

One A
y = e^x
dy/dx = e^x The f(x) = the differentiated function. Any value that e^x can have, the derivative has the same value. x is contained in all the reals.
One B
y = x*e^x
y' = e^x + xe^x Using the multiplication rule.
You want the slope and the value of the of y to be the same. The slope is y' of the tangent line
xe^x = e^x + xe^x
e^x = 0
This happens only when x is very "small" like x = - 4444444

y = e^x * ln(x) Using the multiplication rule again, we need the slope of the line with is y'
y1 = e^x
y1' = e^x
y2 = ln(x)
y2' = 1/x
y' = e^x*ln(x) + e^x/x So at x = 1 the slope of the line = 
y' = e^1*ln(1) + e^1/1
y' = e*0+e  = e
y = mx + b
y = ex + b
to find b we use y= e^x ln(x)

e^x ln(x) = e*x + b
e^1 ln(1) = e*1 + b
ln(1) = 0
0 = e + b
b = - e

line equation and answer.
y = e*x - e

How do you convert 17 cmon minute to miles an hour
eimsori [14]

Answer:

0.006 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Speed in cm per minute ( 17 cm per min)

We are required to convert cm per minute to miles an hour

we need to know that;

1 miles = 160934 cm

1 hour = 60 minutes

We can convert 17 cm to miles and 1 minute to hours

17 cm = 17 ÷ 160934 cm

          = 17/160934

1 minute = 1/60 hour

Therefore;

In miles per hour;

  = (17/160934) ÷ (1/60)

  = 0.00634 miles per hour

  = 0.006 miles per hour

Therefore, 17 cm per minute is equivalent to 0.006 miles per hour
