Answer:

The third partner owns 7/20

Step-by-step explanation:

This is true because 1/4 is 5/20 ans 2/5 is 8/20. Combined that will equal 13/20. 20-13 is 7

Therefore, the answer is 7/20.

Answer:

7/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a common denominator (in this case it is 20)

Multiply 1/4 by 5 to get 5/20

Multiply 2/5 by 4 ro get 8/20

5/20 + 8/20 = 13/20 (Combined shares of the 1st and 2nd partner)

subtract 13/20 from 20/20 ro find the remaining share of the company

the last partner owns <u>7/20</u> of the company

Answer:

P = 3/8

q = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(3/8)^3/8 × (3/8)^1/8 = P^q

Because of the same base, pick one of the bases

Then, add the powers

(3/8)^3/8 × (3/8)^1/8 = P^q

= (3/8)^3/8 + 1/8

= (3/8)^(3+1)/8

= (3/8)^4/8

= (3/8)^1/2

Therefore,

P^q = (3/8)^1/2

Where,

P = 3/8

q = 1/2

P^q = (3/8)^1/2

= √(3/8)

Write the following function in standard form y=5(x-2)(x+1)

Natasha2012 [34]

Y = 5(x - 2 ) (x + 1)
y = 5(x² + x -2x - 2)
y = 5(x² - x - 2)
y = 5x² - 5x - 10

------------------------------------
Answer: y = 5x² - 5x - 10

The difference between two natural numbers is 39. If the larger number is divided by the smaller one, then the quotient is 3 and

mr_godi [17]

-------------------------------------------
Define x and y :
-------------------------------------------
Let one number be x and the other number will be x + 39

-------------------------------------------
Construct equation :
-------------------------------------------
When the big number divided by the smaller number, the quotient is 3 with 11 remaining
⇒ $\dfrac{x + 39 - 11}{x} = 3$

-------------------------------------------
Solve x :
-------------------------------------------
$\dfrac{x + 39 - 11}{x} = 3$

$\dfrac{x + 28}{x} = 3$

$x + 28 = 3x$

$2x = 28$

$x = 14$

-----------------------------
Find the numbers:
-----------------------------
small number = x = 14

big number = x + 39 = 14 + 39 = 53

-------------------------------------------
Answer: The smaller number is 14.
