3 0

1. First find the LCD of the two fractions.
They share the denominator 6.
Turn 1/2 into a fraction with a denominator of 6.
2*3=6, so 1*3=3
3/6
Now add.
Leave denominators alone, but add numerators.
3+5=8
8/6
Now simplify.
Divide both by 2.
8/2=4
6/2=3
4/3 is your answer or 1 1/3
2. Multiply straight across.
3*2=6
4*7=28
6/28
Simplify
You get 3/14 as your answer.

Answer:

At most, Liam can only buy lunch for 6 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are having a conference call with the CEO of a paper company. You have interpreted the number of trees cut down versus profi

loris [4]

You can only cut down a integer number of trees. So you might look at a few integer values for x. As x get large the –x4 term dominates the expression for big losses. x = 0 is easy P(x) = -6. Without cutting any trees you have lost money Put x = 1 and you get for the terms in order -1 + 1 + 7 -1 -6 = 0. So P(x) crosses zero just before you cut the first tree. So you make a profit on only 1 tree. However when x=10 you are back into no profit. So compute a few values for x = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

a grocer stacks apples in a pyramid-like stack whose rectangular base is 7 apples by 5 apples. each apple above the first level

g100num [7]

The arrangement of the apples in the stack is in a sequence that can be

used to find the number of apples in each row and in the stack.

Correct response:

The number of apples in the stack are 85 apples

<h3>How to find the sum of a sequence</h3>

The given parameters are;

Dimensions of apples in the rectangular base = 7 apples by 5 apples

Number of apples on which each apple above rests = 4 apples

Required:

The number of apples in the stack.

Solution:

The dimensions, length and width of the apples in each row decreases

by 1 compared to the row on which the apple rests, as follows;

In the base, the dimension = 7 by 5

In the row directly above, the dimension = (7 - 1) by (5 - 1)

The number of apples sequence continues and is completed by a singles row of apples at the top, from which gives;

Number of apples in the stack = 7 × 5 + 6 × 4 + 5 × 3 + 4 × 2 + 3 × 1 = 85

The number of apples in the tack = 85 apples
