That's the description of a fraction when the numerator and denominator
don't have any common factor except '1' .

Lowest terms basically means that the fraction/ mixed number is in simplest form. Which means it can't be divided by anything to get a lower number for both the numerator and denominator because they don't have anymore factors that they share. For example, if I wanted to simplify the fraction, 4/8. I would divide by 4 on both the top and bottom since that is their greatest common factor.
4 ➗ 4=1
8 ➗4=2
1/2 would be the "lowest terms" of 4/8 since 1 and 2 don't have any common factors except 1.

A rectangular area is to be fenced in with 300 feet of chicken wire. find the maximum area that can be enclosed.

GarryVolchara [31]

Let the lengths of the sides of the rectangle be x and y. Then A(Area) = xy and 2(x+y)=300. You can use substitution to make one equation that gives A in terms of either x or y instead of both.

2(x+y) = 300
x+y = 150
y = 150-x

A=x(150-x) <--(substitution)

The resulting equation is a quadratic equation that is concave down, so it has an absolute maximum. The x value of this maximum is going to be halfway between the zeroes of the function. The zeroes of the function can be found by setting A equal to 0:
0=x(150-x)
x=0, 150

So halfway between the zeroes is 75. Plug this into the quadratic equation to find the maximum area.

A=75(150-75)
A=75*75
A=5625

So the maximum area that can be enclosed is 5625 square feet.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.

Please have a look at the attached photo.

My answer:

As given in the question, we know that:

The ratio of the area of the circle to the area of the square is π/4

The formula to find the volume of the cone is:

V = 1/3*the height*the base area

<=> V1 = 1/3*h*π $r^{2}$

The formula to find the volume of the pyramid is:

V2 = 1/3*the height*the base area

<=> V = 1/3*h*4 $r^{2}$

=> the ratio of volume of the cone to the pyramid is:

= $\frac{V1}{V2}$

= (1/3*h*π $r^{2}$ ) / ( 1/3*h*4 $r^{2}$ )

= π/4

S we can conclude that the volume of the cone equals π/4 the volume of the pyramid

Hope it will find you well.

If on the unit circle C , the distance from P (1, 0) to the point T ( 5/13, 12/13 ) is x , determine the coordinates of the poin

Lorico [155]

Answer:

T' $(\frac{5}{13},- \frac{12}{13})$

Step-by-step explanation:

See the diagram attached.

This is a unit circle having a radius (r) = 1 unit.

So, the length of the circumference of the circle will be 2πr = 2π units.

Now, the point on the circle at a distance of x along the arc from P is T $(\frac{5}{13},\frac{12}{13})$ .

Therefore, the point on the circle at a distance of 2π - x along the arc from P will be T' $(\frac{5}{13},- \frac{12}{13})$ , where, T' is the image of point T, when reflected over the x-axis. (Answer)
