What is the solution to the equation (-14)+x-14

20. The H.M. between 2 and 8 is (1 marks )

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer as an improper fraction = 16/5

Answer as a mixed number = 3 & 1/5

Answer in decimal form = 3.2

All of those values represent the same thing, but written in a different way.

=============================================================

Explanation:

I'm assuming HM stands for Harmonic Mean in this case.

If so, then we apply the reciprocal operation to each value to get 1/2 and 1/8 (from 2 and 8 respectively).

Add up those fractions:

1/2 + 1/8 = 4/8 + 1/8 = 5/8

Now we'll divide n = 2 over that result. The n = 2 refers to the number of items in the original set.

n divide over (5/8) = 2*(8/5) = 16/5 which is the answer as an improper fraction

-----------

To convert to a mixed number, we can do the following:

16/5 = (15+1)/5

16/5 = 15/5 + 1/5

16/5 = 3 + 1/5

16/5 = 3 & 1/5

Or if you need the answer in decimal form, then using a calculator would get you 16/5 = 3.2

Select correct answer

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The values of p in the equation are 0 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to make the denominators the same. to do that, first factor 2p^2-7p-4 = \left(2p+1\right)\left(p-4\right)2p

2

−7p−4=(2p+1)(p−4)

So then the equation looks like:

\frac{p}{2p+1}-\frac{2p^2+5}{(2p+1)(p-4)}=-\frac{5}{p-4}

2p+1

p

−

(2p+1)(p−4)

2p

2

+5

=−

p−4

5

To make the denominators equal, multiply 2p+1 with p-4 and p-4 with 2p+1:

\frac{p^2-4p}{(2p+1)(p-4)}-\frac{2p^2+5}{(2p+1)(p-4)}=-\frac{10p+5}{(p-4)(2p+1)}

(2p+1)(p−4)

p

2

−4p

−

(2p+1)(p−4)

2p

2

+5

=−

(p−4)(2p+1)

10p+5

Since, this has an equal sign we 'get rid of' or 'forget' the denominator and only solve the numerator.

(p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)=-(10p+5)(p

2

−4p)−(2p

2

+5)=−(10p+5)

Now, solve like a normal equation. Solve (p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)(p

2

−4p)−(2p

2

+5) first:

(p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)=-p^2-4p-5(p

2

−4p)−(2p

2

+5)=−p

2

−4p−5

-p^2-4p-5=-10p+5−p

2

−4p−5=−10p+5

Combine like terms:

-p^2-4p+0=-10p−p

2

−4p+0=−10p

-p^2+6p=0−p

2

+6p=0

Factor:

p=0, p=6p

Use a calculator to find a decimal approximation for the following trigonometric function sin 28°48

Bumek [7]

The decimal approximation for the trigonometric function sin 28°48' is

Given the trigonometric function is sin 28°48'

The ratio between the adjacent side and the hypotenuse is called cos(θ), whereas the ratio between the opposite side and the hypotenuse is called sin(θ). The sin(θ) and cos(θ) values for a given triangle are constant regardless of the triangle's size.

To solve this, we are going to convert 28°48' into degrees first, using the conversion factor 1' = 1/60°

sin (28°48') = sin(28° ₊ (48 × 1/60)°)

= sin(28° ₊ (48 /60)°)

= sin(28° ₊ 4°/5)

= sin(28° ₊ 0.8°)

= sin(28.8°)

= 0.481753

Therefore sin (28°48') is 0.481753.

faust18 [17]

Answer:

5/16

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see in the 16 given possible outcomes, in 5 of them at least 3 coins land facing up. Since there are 16 outcomes in total, the probability that at least three coins land facing up is 5/16. Hope this helps!
