Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3s=1/5

s=(1/5)/(1/3)

s=(1/5)(3/1)

s=3/5

Answer:  s = 3/5 = 0.600

Step-by-step explanation:s = 3/5 = 0.600

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    1/3*s-(1/5)=0

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

           1

Simplify   —

           5

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  1         1

 (— • s) -  —  = 0

  3         5

Step  2  :

           1

Simplify   —

           3

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  1         1

 (— • s) -  —  = 0

  3         5

Step  3  :

Calculating the Least Common Multiple :

3.1    Find the Least Common Multiple

     The left denominator is :       3

     The right denominator is :       5

       Number of times each prime factor

       appears in the factorization of: Prime

Factor   Left

Denominator   Right

Denominator   L.C.M = Max

{Left,Right}

3 1 0 1

5 0 1 1

Product of all

Prime Factors  3 5 15

     Least Common Multiple:

     15

Calculating Multipliers :

3.2    Calculate multipliers for the two fractions

   Denote the Least Common Multiple by  L.C.M

   Denote the Left Multiplier by  Left_M

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  Right_M

   Denote the Left Deniminator by  L_Deno

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  R_Deno

  Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 5

  Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 3

Making Equivalent Fractions :

3.3      Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions

Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.

For example :  1/2   and  2/4  are equivalent,  y/(y+1)2   and  (y2+y)/(y+1)3  are equivalent as well.

To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.

  L. Mult. • L. Num.      s • 5

  ——————————————————  =   —————

        L.C.M              15  

  R. Mult. • R. Num.       3

  ——————————————————  =   ——

        L.C.M             15

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

3.4       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

s • 5 - (3)     5s - 3

———————————  =  ——————

    15            15  

Equation at the end of step  3  :

 5s - 3

 ——————  = 0

   15  

Step  4  :

When a fraction equals zero :

4.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 5s-3

 ———— • 15 = 0 • 15

  15

Now, on the left hand side, the  15  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  5s-3  = 0

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

4.2      Solve  :    5s-3 = 0

Add  3  to both sides of the equation :

                     5s = 3

Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

                    s = 3/5 = 0.600

One solution was found :

                  s = 3/5 = 0.600

BTW YOu can but the answer as 0.600 or 3/5

Teresa is factoring this polynomial by grouping. Which common factors should be used in the next step of factoring? 10x3 3x2−20x
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

−2=−2x^3

Step-by-step explanation:

10x3= 3x2−20x−6=(10x3⋅(3x2))(−20x−6)=−600x6−180x5x2=−600x6−180x5−2x⋅(2x2)=−4x3−2x⋅x2=−2x^3

−2=−2x3

2x^2=−2x^3

−2=−2x^3

Jared bought a Suzuki 1000 for $12,698. If it depreciates at a rate of 11% per year, how much will it be worth in 3 years
Serga [27]
Original price = P = $12,698
Depreciation rate = r = 11% = 0.11
Time in years = t = 3
New price = A

The formula used will be:

A=P(1-r)^{t}

Using the values, we get:

A=12698(1-0.11)^{3}=8951.70

Thus, the worth of Suzuki after 3 years will be $8951.70
