Review your solution to part (b) of problem 5-13. You probably multiplied each fraction by the lowest (least) common denominator

(LCD), which, in this case, is . But what would you do if you could not determine the LCD? You will explore this idea in parts (a) through (e) below. Multiply the three denominators: . Multiply both sides of the equation by the product you got in part (a). This gives you an equivalent equation. Have your partner multiply both sides of the equation by 10 and find a different equivalent equation. Now, solve your equation for and check your answer. While you solve your equation, your partner will be solving his or her equation. Compare your result with your partner's. Why do both your method and your partner's method work? That is, why do both using the product of the denominators and using the LCD of both successfully eliminate fractions from equations?

<h3>Missing Part of Question:</h3>

Some information was missing so I am attaching the complete question.

<h3></h3><h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Given Equation is:

  \frac{3y}{5}\;+\;\frac{3}{2}\;=\;\frac{7y}{10}\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;------\;\;(1)

Step (a)

Let, A = 5 * 3 * 10

      A = 150

Step (b)

Multiplying both sides of equation (1) with A = 150, we get,

90y_{_1}\; + \;225\; =\; 105y_{_1}\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;------\;\;(a)

Multiplying both sides of equation (1) by 10 we get,

6y_{_2}\; + \;15\; =\; 7y_{_2}\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;------\;\;(b)

Step (c)

Solving Equation (a), we get

105y_{_1}\;-\; 90y_{_1}\;=\;225\\\\15y_{_1}\;= \;225\\\\y_{_1}\;=\;\frac{225}{15}\\\\y_{_1}\;=\;15

Solving Equation (b), we get

7y_{_{2}}\; -\; 6y_{_{2}}\; = \;15\\\\y_{_{2}}\;=\; 15

Step (d)

y{_{_1}} \;= \;15; \;\;\;\;\;\&\;\;\;\;\;y{_{_2}}\; = \;15;\\\\\therefore y{_{_1}}\; =\; y{_{_2}}

Step (e)

Both methods work the same because as long as we multiply (or divide) the same amount to the total equation, the equation balances itself out. For example, consider an equation

x = 2;

If we multiply it by 10 on both sides we will get

10x = 20,

If we simplify the above equation, however, we will get the same initial equation.

x = 20/10

x = 2

M∠1=28°, m∠6=65°, m∠5=65°. Find m∠MAX
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

<MAX = 93

Step-by-step explanation:

Since <MAX is technically <1 + <5, we know that <1 is 28 and <5 is 65. We can add both of these angles up to solve for <MAX, which is 28 + 65 = 93.

Hurry I Will Give Brainliest!!
beks73 [17]

Answers:

  • Vertex
  • 3
  • middle

If an angle is labeled with a single letter, that letter represents the <u>  vertex  </u> of the angle.

If more than one angle has the same vertex, you must use <u>  3   </u> points to name the angle. The <u>  </u><u>middle  </u> point named must be the vertex.

=================================================================

Explanation:

If we have a single triangle, and no other extra lines, then we can use single letters to name the three angles. Each vertex of the triangle corresponds to the vertex of that angle.

If you were to draw many triangles, in which some may or may not overlap, you'll mostly likely need to name the angle using 3 letters. This is so you are very specific about which angle you're talking about. The middle letter is always the vertex. The left and right letters are points on the arms of the angle. The order of the left and right letters doesn't matter as long as the middle letter stays the same. So something like angle ABC is the same as angle CBA.

What is the easiest way to solve a quadratic equation?​
algol [13]

Answer: This is an opinion, look below! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the expression. To factor the expression, you have to use the factors of the {\displaystyle x^{2}}x^{2} term (3), and the factors of the constant term (-4), to make them multiply and then add up to the middle term, (-11). Here's how you do it:

Since {\displaystyle 3x^{2}}3x^{2} only has one set of possible factors, {\displaystyle 3x}3x and {\displaystyle x}x, you can write those in the parenthesis: {\displaystyle (3x\pm ?)(x\pm ?)=0}(3x\pm ?)(x\pm ?)=0.

Then, use process of elimination to plug in the factors of 4 to find a combination that produces -11x when multiplied. You can either use a combination of 4 and 1, or 2 and 2, since both of those numbers multiply to get 4. Just remember that one of the terms should be negative, since the term is -4.[3]

By trial and error, try out this combination of factors {\displaystyle (3x+1)(x-4)}(3x+1)(x-4). When you multiply them out, you get {\displaystyle 3x^{2}-12x+x-4}3x^{2}-12x+x-4. If you combine the terms {\displaystyle -12x}-12x and {\displaystyle x}x, you get {\displaystyle -11x}-11x, which is the middle term you were aiming for. You have just factored the quadratic equation.

As an example of trial and error, let's try checking a factoring combination for {\displaystyle 3x^{2}-11x-4=0}3x^{2}-11x-4=0 that is an error (does not work): {\displaystyle (3x-2)(x+2)}(3x-2)(x+2) = {\displaystyle 3x^{2}+6x-2x-4}3x^{2}+6x-2x-4. If you combine those terms, you get {\displaystyle 3x^{2}-4x-4}3x^{2}-4x-4. Though the factors -2 and 2 do multiply to make -4, the middle term does not work, because you needed to get {\displaystyle -11x}-11x, not {\displaystyle -4x}-4x.
