To solve this problem, you must find a common denominator. First, you multiply the denominators together, then, multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the original denominator of the second fraction and vis-versa.
3*4 = denominator of both
2*4 = numerator of first fraction
3*3 = numerator of second fraction
Your fractions should end up being 8/12 cups of raisins and 9/12 cup of almonds. You can now compare these fractions.
Overall, there are 1/12 more almonds than raisins.
Answer:
x= -3
x= -5
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 8x + 15 = 0
find which 2 numbers when multiplied equal 15 and when added equal 8
they are 3 and 5
(x+3)(x+5)
x+3 =0
x+5=0
x= -3
x= -5
Answer:
y-3
Problem:
What is the remainder when the dividend is xy-3, the divisor is y, and the quotient is x-1. ?
Step-by-step explanation:
Dividend=quotient×divisor+remainder
So we have
xy-3=(x-1)×(y)+remainder
xy-3=(xy-y)+remainder *distributive property
Now we just need to figure out what polynomial goes in for the remainder so this will be a true identity.
We need to get rid of minus y so we need plus y in the remainder.
We also need minus 3 in the remainder.
So the remainder is y-3.
Let's try it out:
xy-3=(xy-y)+remainder
xy-3=(xy-y)+(y-3)
xy-3=xy-3 is what we wanted so we are done here.
