Answer:

Each of the three friends will get one-sixth of the Thomas's enitre marble collection.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of the total marble collection brought by Thomas = \frac{1}{2}

Now, Thomas divides these marbles equally among his three friends. So, each of the three friends will get one-third of the total marble collection brought by Thomas.

Fraction of total marble collection got by each friend = \frac{1}{3} \;of\;fraction\;of\;total\;marble\;collection\;brought\;by\;Thomas

= \frac{1}{3}\times\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{6}

∴ Each of the three friends of Thomas will get one-sixth of his entire collection of marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

bank one:10*2=(20*3=60)

                $1000+$100+$60=$1160

                total after 3 years = $1160

bank two:$10*6=(60*3=180)

                 $1000+$180=$1180

                total after 3 years = $1180

What is the value of x?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares on the other 2 sides, that is

x² + 12² = 13²

x² + 144 = 169 ( subtract 144 from both sides )

x² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{25} = 5

Answer:

  C

Step-by-step explanation:

When you cross multiply by denominator expressions that share a zero, you are effectively making that zero a solution of the resulting equation. That zero cannot be part of the domain of the original equation, and so must be an extraneous solution.

This condition is seen in choice C.

  \dfrac{8}{x^2-9}=\dfrac{5}{2x-6}\qquad\text{original equation. $x\ne3$}\\\\8(2x-6)=5(x^2-9)\qquad\text{result of cross multiplying}\\\\16(x -3)=5(x+3)(x-3)\qquad\text{factored form}

The solutions to this equation are x=1/5 and x=3. Of these, x=3 is extraneous.

__

A better solution method is multiplying by the least common denominator:

  2(8)=5(x+3)\qquad\text{result of multiplying by $2(x^2-9)$}
