How do you add a fraction with different denomirers

Hey there!
When we're adding with different denominators, our goal is to keep the equivalent fraction, but create like denominators.
Let's think of an easier situation. If we have the number 5 and we want an equivalent number, we multiply by one. It's no different with fractions. We want to multiply by some version of one, like 2/2 or 4/4
For example, if we have:
2/8 + 4/6

Our LCM is 24. Therefore, we multiply 2/8 by 3/3:
2/8(3/3) = 6/24

And 4/6 by 4/4:
4/6(4/4) = 16/24

As you can see, we multiplied by versions of 1, so they're still the same fraction.

We have:
16/24 + 6/24 = 22/24 = 11/12

Hope this helps!

* PLEASE ANSWER TY!! * If BC is tangent to circle O and OB is a radius, what kind of triangle is OBC?
ipn [44]

Answer:

Right Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

BC is tangent to circle O, and since radius OB is perpendicular to this tangent, then the triangle must have a right angles in it, making it a right triangle.

The triangle could also be scalene, but that is not for sure, meaning it is primarily a right triangle.

What transformation of the parent function f(x) is made to get 4f(x+2)
LenKa [72]

Answer: A vertical stretch of 4 and a translation of -2 units in the x-direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

       Changes of the parent function can be written, in this case as <em>a</em>f(x)(x - <em>k</em>) where <em>a</em> is the stretch factor and <em>k</em> is the movement left or right on the x-axis.

       In this case, a = 4 and k = 2. Since the k is negative, the function will be moved -2 units on the x-axis.
