What is 4/5 - 2/3, show working out.

1 answer:

3 0

First you make common denominators, which would be 15, what you do to the bottom you have to do to the top so you take 4 times 3 and 2 times 5 so now its 12/15 and 10/15 now you subtract the top which would make it now 10/15 then simpilify down to 2/3. I hope this helps

*100 points* What is the value of x in these polygons?

Effectus [21]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

$Greetings!$

$Let's~answer~your~question!$

$Since~ we~ know~ that ~these ~two~ are~ similar, ~it ~is ~also~ given ~that~ corresponding\\ parts ~of ~the~ triangle~ are ~proportional.~ In ~result,~ you~ can~ set~ the~ proportions~\\something~ like~ this:$

$\frac{16}{32}= \frac{12}{24}$

$Now,~from~ here, you~ can ~figure~ out~ that~ the~ ratio~ of ~the ~larger ~triangle~ to ~the \\~smaller~ triangle~ is ~.75:1$

$You~can~ then~ apply~ this~ to~ the~ side ~of ~x-1 ~and ~set~ up ~the~ equation.$

$.75(x-1)=6$

$Now,~solving~ the~ equation,~ you~ get~ x=9.~ Substitute~ that~ into~ x-1~ and~ you\\ get~ 8 ~as ~that~ side~ length.~ To~ check, compare:$

$\frac{8}{6}=\frac{32}{24}$

$Thus,~the~value~of~x~is=9.$

$Hope~my~answer~helps~you!~Have~a~blessed~day~ahead!$

Which set of ordered pairs represents a function?

qwelly [4]

The very last set
{(0, 2), (1, 4), (2, 6), (3, 6)}.

The reason why is because of the vertical line test. If there are two y-coordinates on a x-coordinate then it is not a function. A function is that each x-coordinate has a y-coordinate with the x-coordinates being different.

Example is above. If you have any questions then leave a comment. Good luck!
