Solve showing all work and simplify completely: 9/18 + 1/3

Mathematics
1 answer:
ss7ja [257]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

9/18 + 1/3 <Need the same denominator so find the lowest common multiple.

3 6 9 12 15 18 < multiples of 3

if 3 goes into 18 than it will be our LCM

3 goes into 18 6 times so multiply 1 and 3 by 6 and rewrite the equation

9/18 + 6/18 < just add 9 + 6 and place it over 18

15/18 <this number can be simplified so write out their factors and pick the highest one to divide by one they have in common.

1 3 5 15 <Factors of 15

1 2 3 6 9 18 <Factors of 18

3 is the highest one they both have so divide both 15 and 18  by 3

15/3 is 5 and 18/3 is 6

put the 5 and 6 in their proper places and you have 5/6 or .83333333333...

A dairy sells $3 and $5 ice creams. In one day they sell 50 ice creams earning a total of $180. How many of each type of ice cre
murzikaleks [220]
We are going to make simultaneous equations.
x will be our $3 ice cream and y will be our $5 ice cream

Equation1 ----            x + y = 50   (the sum of all the ice creams they sell)
Equation 2 ----          3x + 5y = 180  Sum of all the $3 and $5 ice creams is $180
Since we can't solve for both variables we will put one of the variables in terms of the other.
Take x+y=50 and subtract y from both sides.  (I could have done subtracted x - it did not matter).       Now we have x= ₋ y +50  (negative y +50)
Now I am going to take equation 2 and replace the x with -y +50

3 (-y +50) + 5y = 180   
Now I will use the distributive law on the 3 and what's in the parentheses:
-3y + 150 + 5y = 180
Now I will combine like terms (the -3y and the 5y)
2y + 150 = 180
Now subtract 150 from both sides of the equation
2y = 30
Divide both sides by 2
and get y= 15 They sold 15 ice creams that cost $5 each
Since equation 1  is  x+y=50 we can replace y with 15
x + 15 = 50    Now subtract 15 from both sides  x = 35
Since x represents the $3 ice creams, they sold 35 of those.
Check:
35 X 3 = $105
15 x 5  = +  <u>75
</u>               $180

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 kilowatts is generated by 1 solar panel

24 kilowatts will be generated by ?

24 ÷ 3/5 = (24×5)/3 = 120/3 = 40 solar panels.

kkurt [141]

Answer:

(x- \frac{2}{5})^{2} = x^2 -\frac{4}{5}x + \frac{4}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

You have two methods to expand this binomial.

Method 1  

If you have the expression:

(x- \frac{2}{5})^{2}

You can write the expression it in the following way:

(x-\frac{2}{5})^{2}=(x-\frac{2}{5})(x-\frac{2}{5})

Then, apply the distributive property:

(x-\frac{2}{5})(x-\frac{2}{5}) = x^2 -\frac{2}{5}x -\frac{2}{5}x+ (\frac{2}{5})\frac{2}{5}

Simplify the expression:

(x-\frac{2}{5})^2= x^2 -\frac{4}{5}x+ (\frac{4}{25})

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Method 2

For any expression of the form:

(a-b)^2

Its expanded form will be:

(a-b)^2= a^2 -2ab + b^2

If

a = x

b =\frac{2}{5}

(x- \frac{2}{5})^{2} = x^2 - 2x\frac{2}{5} + (\frac{2}{5})^2

(x- \frac{2}{5})^{2} = x^2 -\frac{4}{5}x + \frac{4}{25}
