HELP!?! PLEASE!! Which pair of fractions shows 7/9 and 5/12 correctly converted with their least common denominator?

2 answers:

7 0

The common denominator number is (i mean at least) 36.
so when we multiply 7/9 with 4/4 . NOW we have 28/36.
for the other multiply 5/12 with 3/3 now we have 15/36.
the answer is A . hope it helps :) :)

$Least\ common\ denominator:\\\\\frac{7}{9}\ \ \ \frac{5}{12}\ \ we\ need\ to\ find\ number\ which\ can\ be\ divided\ by\ 12\ and\ 9\\\\\frac{7\cdot4}{9\cdot4}\ \ \ \frac{5\cdot3}{12\cdot3}\\\\\frac{28}{36}\ \ \ \frac{15}{36}\\\\Answer\ A.$

Question 3

BigorU [14]

Answer:

30 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

time = distance/speed

If x represents Jane's speed along the summit then her total exploration time is ...

12/x + 40/(x -5) = 2 . . . . . hours

Multiplying by (x)(x -5), we get ...

12(x -5) +40(x) = 2(x)(x -5)

Dividing by 2 and subtracting the left side gives ...

x^2 -31x +30 = 0

(x -30)(x -1) = 0 . . . . . factor

Solutions are x = 30 and x = 1, values of x that make the factors zero. A speed of 1 mph makes no sense in this problem, so ...

Jane's speed along the summit was 30 mph.

The equation giving a family of ellipsoids is u = (x^2)/(a^2) + (y^2)/(b^2) + (z^2)/(c^2) . Find the unit vector normal to each

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

$\hat{n}\ =\ \ \dfrac{\dfrac{x}{a^2}\hat{i}+\ \dfrac{y}{b^2}\hat{j}+\ \dfrac{z}{c^2}\hat{k}}{\sqrt{(\dfrac{x}{a^2})^2+(\dfrac{y}{b^2})^2+(\dfrac{z}{c^2})^2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of ellipsoids,

$u\ =\ \dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}+\dfrac{z^2}{c^2}$

The vector normal to the given equation of ellipsoid will be given by

$\vec{n}\ =\textrm{gradient of u}$

$=\bigtriangledown u$

$=\ (\dfrac{\partial{}}{\partial{x}}\hat{i}+ \dfrac{\partial{}}{\partial{y}}\hat{j}+ \dfrac{\partial{}}{\partial{z}}\hat{k})(\dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}+\dfrac{z^2}{c^2})$

$=\ \dfrac{\partial{(\dfrac{x^2}{a^2})}}{\partial{x}}\hat{i}+\dfrac{\partial{(\dfrac{y^2}{b^2})}}{\partial{y}}\hat{j}+\dfrac{\partial{(\dfrac{z^2}{c^2})}}{\partial{z}}\hat{k}$

$=\ \dfrac{2x}{a^2}\hat{i}+\ \dfrac{2y}{b^2}\hat{j}+\ \dfrac{2z}{c^2}\hat{k}$

Hence, the unit normal vector can be given by,

$\hat{n}\ =\ \dfrac{\vec{n}}{\left|\vec{n}\right|}$

$=\ \dfrac{\dfrac{2x}{a^2}\hat{i}+\ \dfrac{2y}{b^2}\hat{j}+\ \dfrac{2z}{c^2}\hat{k}}{\sqrt{(\dfrac{2x}{a^2})^2+(\dfrac{2y}{b^2})^2+(\dfrac{2z}{c^2})^2}}$

$=\ \dfrac{\dfrac{x}{a^2}\hat{i}+\ \dfrac{y}{b^2}\hat{j}+\ \dfrac{z}{c^2}\hat{k}}{\sqrt{(\dfrac{x}{a^2})^2+(\dfrac{y}{b^2})^2+(\dfrac{z}{c^2})^2}}$

Hence, the unit vector normal to each point of the given ellipsoid surface is

$\hat{n}\ =\ \ \dfrac{\dfrac{x}{a^2}\hat{i}+\ \dfrac{y}{b^2}\hat{j}+\ \dfrac{z}{c^2}\hat{k}}{\sqrt{(\dfrac{x}{a^2})^2+(\dfrac{y}{b^2})^2+(\dfrac{z}{c^2})^2}}$

$60 ÷ $15 = 4
$9 × 4 = $36
