What is 24/42 in the simplest form?

2 answers:

6 0

24/42= 4/7

<span> To start divide both sides by 2 So 24/2=12 and then 42/2=21. So it would then be 12/21. Now both are divisible by 3 so you can divide each side by 3. So 12/3=4 and 21/3=7 so it would be 4/7. You can't-do anything further so that is the lowest term.</span>

What is the largest common factor of both 24 and 42?

24 is divisible (without remainder) by 4, 6, 8 and 24. 42 is divisible by 2, 21, 3, 14, 6, 7. Your job is to identify the common factor found in each 24 and 42.

6 divides without remainder into both 24 and 42.

Thus, you have 24 6*4
---- = -----------
42 6*7

Cancel the sixes. This leaves you with 4/7, which cannot be reduced further.

X+6/2 - x-8/3 = 5<br><br> HELP PLEASE

Hoochie [10]

(x + 6)/2 - (x - 8)/3 = 5
Multiply each term by 6:-
3(x + 6) - 2(x - 8) = 30
3x + 18 - 2x + 16 = 30
3x - 2x = 30 -18 - 16
x = 30 - 34
x = -4 (answer)

1) A basket of apples are given to a group of students. If 3 apples are given to each student, there will be 8 apples left. If 5

sattari [20]

Answer:

1) either 5 or 6 students in the group

2) 6 rooms are booked

Step-by-step explanation:

1) x students

3x + 8 = apples

5 (x-1) + y (the one get less than 5 apples)

3x + 8 = 5 (x - 1) + y

3x + 8 = 5x - 5 + y

2x + y = 13

X 1 2 3 4 5 6

Y 11 9 7 5 3 1

because y < 5 so x = 5 or x = 6

2) x rooms are booked

4x + 20 total students

8 (x-1) + y (the students in room not full))

4x + 20 = 8 (x-1) + y

4x + 20 = 8x - 8 + y

4x + y = 28

X 1 2 3 4 5 6

Y 24 20 16 12 8 4

y < 8 answer is 6 rooms

f(x) = 3 cos(x) 0 ≤ x ≤ 3π/4 evaluate the Riemann sum with n = 6, taking the sample points to be left endpoints. (Round your ans

Kruka [31]

Answer:

$\int_{0}^{\frac{3 \pi}{4}}3 \cos{\left(x \right)}\ dx\approx 3.099558$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the Riemann sum for $\int_{0}^{\frac{3 \pi}{4}}3 \cos{\left(x \right)}\ dx$ with n = 6, using left endpoints.

The Left Riemann Sum uses the left endpoints of a sub-interval:

$\int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx\approx\Delta{x}\left(f(x_0)+f(x_1)+2f(x_2)+...+f(x_{n-2})+f(x_{n-1})\right)$

where $\Delta{x}=\frac{b-a}{n}$ .

Step 1: Find $\Delta{x}$

We have that $a=0, b=\frac{3\pi }{4}, n=6$

Therefore, $\Delta{x}=\frac{\frac{3 \pi}{4}-0}{6}=\frac{\pi}{8}$

Step 2: Divide the interval $\left[0,\frac{3 \pi}{4}\right]$ into n = 6 sub-intervals of length $\Delta{x}=\frac{\pi}{8}$

$a=\left[0, \frac{\pi}{8}\right], \left[\frac{\pi}{8}, \frac{\pi}{4}\right], \left[\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{3 \pi}{8}\right], \left[\frac{3 \pi}{8}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right], \left[\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{5 \pi}{8}\right], \left[\frac{5 \pi}{8}, \frac{3 \pi}{4}\right]=b$

Step 3: Evaluate the function at the left endpoints

$f\left(x_{0}\right)=f(a)=f\left(0\right)=3=3$

$f\left(x_{1}\right)=f\left(\frac{\pi}{8}\right)=3 \sqrt{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} + \frac{1}{2}}=2.77163859753386$

$f\left(x_{2}\right)=f\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)=\frac{3 \sqrt{2}}{2}=2.12132034355964$

$f\left(x_{3}\right)=f\left(\frac{3 \pi}{8}\right)=3 \sqrt{\frac{1}{2} - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}}=1.14805029709527$

$f\left(x_{4}\right)=f\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)=0=0$

$f\left(x_{5}\right)=f\left(\frac{5 \pi}{8}\right)=- 3 \sqrt{\frac{1}{2} - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}}=-1.14805029709527$

Step 4: Apply the Left Riemann Sum formula

$\frac{\pi}{8}(3+2.77163859753386+2.12132034355964+1.14805029709527+0-1.14805029709527)=3.09955772805315$

$\int_{0}^{\frac{3 \pi}{4}}3 \cos{\left(x \right)}\ dx\approx 3.099558$
