Answer:
37/24
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the denomenators must be consistent, both 8 and 12 have the common factor of 24.
the denominator of 8 must be multiplied by 3 to get to 24, but to multiply the denominator you must multiply the numerator by 3 which gives you
15/24
the denominator of 12 must be multiplied by 2 to get 24, so you must multiply 11 by 2 as well to get
22/24
add them together to get 37/24
Answer:
The fraction will increase by 100%
Step-by-step explanation:
Say the fraction is x/y. The question is telling us to decrease x by 20% (i.e. 0.8x) and to decrease y by 60% (i.e. 0.4y):
You can see that by applying these changes, the new fraction is actually double the old fraction (i.e. will increase by 100%).
We can write this in math as x+y+z=104, x=y-6, and z=3y
Because we already know what x and z are in terms of y, we can substitute our values for x and z into the first equation. This now looks like (y-6) + y + (3y) = 104. Now we can simplify our equation to find our value for y.
y-6 + y + 3y = 104 simplifies to 5y - 6 = 104, then 5y=110, and finally y=22.
Now that we know our value for y we can find our values for x and z by substituting our value for y into the other two equations.
The second equation x = y-6 can be simplified as x = 22 - 6 and further simplified as x = 16.
The third equation z = 3y can be written as z = 3(22) or z = 66.
Our three numbers are 16, 22, and 66. Hope this helps you!
Answer:
Distance= 6.6 miles
Bearing= N 62.854°W
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's determine angle b first
Angle b=20° (alternate angles)
Using cosine rule
Let the distance between the liner and the port be x
X² =8.8²+2.4²-2(8.8)(2.4)cos20
X²= 77.44 + 5.76-(39.69)
X²= 43.51
X= √43.51
X= 6.596
X= 6.6 miles
Let's determine the angles within the triangle using sine rule
2.4/sin b = 6.6/sin20
(2.4*sin20)/6.6= sin b
0.1244 = sin b
7.146= b°
Angle c= 180-20-7.146
Angle c= 152.854°
For the bearing
110+7.146= 117.146
180-117.146= 62.854°
Bearing= N 62.854°W
Both FI and GJ are diameters.
