To find 5/12-3/8, you have to find a common denominator. A common denominator of 12 and 8 could be 24. So, you multiply 5/12, both the numerator and the denominator by 2, which gives you 10/24. Then, you multiply 3/8 both by 3 to get the common denominator of 24. 3/8x 3 is 9/24. So, 10/24-9/24 is 1/24 because you only subtract the numerator and keep the denominator the same.

Find the value of x. pls will give brainliest for correct answer <br><br>​
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

x=66°

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total angle measure in a triangle is always 180°, so first we need to find the angle value of BAC. They give us a straight line aligning with this angle and measure of 98° for the angle DAB (which is forming other part of line) and a line is 180° so we subtract and find that angle BAC is 82°.

Now that we know the angle measure of 2 angles in the triangle, we add them up and get 114°. Now we subtract this from 180° and get 66°, which is the measure of x.

Quadrilateral JKLM is graphed with vertices at J(-2,2), K(-1,-5), L(4,0), and M(3,7).
AveGali [126]

Answer:

<u>Question (a)</u>

Midpoint of a line segment:

M=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)

Given:

  • J = (-2, 2)
  • L = (4, 0)

\implies \textsf{midpoint of }JL=\left(\dfrac{-2+4}{2},\dfrac{2+0}{2}\right)=(1,1)

Given:

  • M = (3, 7)
  • K = (-1, -5)

\implies \textsf{midpoint of }MK=\left(\dfrac{3-1}{2},\dfrac{7-5}{2}\right)=(1, 1)

<u>Question (b)</u>

Find slopes (gradients) of JL and MK then compare.  If the product of the slopes of JL and MK equal -1, then JL and MK are perpendicular.

\textsf{slope }m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Given:

  • J = (-2, 2)
  • L = (4, 0)

\implies \textsf{slope of }JL=\dfrac{0-2}{4+2}=-\dfrac13

Given:

  • M = (3, 7)
  • K = (-1, -5)

\implies \textsf{slope of }MK=\dfrac{-5-7}{-1-3}=3

\textsf{slope of }JL \times \textsf{slope of }MK=-\dfrac13 \times3=-1

Hence segments JL and MK are perpendicular

What should be subtracted from -8xy + 2x^2 + 3y^2 to get x^2 + 2
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

x^2 - 8xy + 3y^2 - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(-8xy + 2x^2 + 3y^2) - unknown = x^2 + 2

- unknown = x^2 + 2 + 8xy - 2x^2 - 3y^2

- unknown = -x^2 + 8xy - 3y^2 + 2

Unknown = x^2 - 8xy + 3y^2 - 2

Check:

(-8xy + 2x^2 + 3y^2) - (x^2 - 8xy + 3y^2 - 2)

= -8xy + 2x^2 + 3y^2 - x^2 + 8xy - 3y^2 + 2

= -8xy + 8xy + 2x^2 - x^2 + 3y^2 - 3y^2 + 2

= x^2 + 2
