Common denominators! 

<span>If you have to add... 3 fractions with 4 as the denominators: </span>
<span>Then you can combine the numerators: </span>

<span>a/c+ b/c = (a+b)/c and a/d + b/d + c/d = (a+b+c)/d </span>

<span>Let's plug in the numbers.</span>

<span>a=3, b=1, c=1, d =4 </span>
<span>3/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 = 5/4 or 1 1/4! </span>

<span>So the equation for the problem: </span>

<span>Lt = L1+ L2 + L3 + L4 or </span>
<span>L4 = Lt - L1 - L2 - L3 Plug in the numbers </span>

<span>L4 ( remains ) = L total, 72 - L1 ( first cut at 30 3/4 ) - L2 ( second cut 12 1/4 ) - L3 ( 16 1/4 ) </span>

<span>So 72 - 30 - 12 - 16 - 3/4 - 1/4 - 1/4 =? </span>
<span>( break this down into simple terms and do it in your head... </span>

<span>72 - 30 = 42, 42 - 21 = 30, 30 - 16 = 14, 14 - 3/4 = 13 1/4 - 1//4 = 13 - 1/4 = 12 3/4!</span>

In triangles ABC and LMN, ∠A ≅ ∠L, ∠B ≅ ∠M, and ∠C ≅ ∠N. Is this information sufficient to prove triangles ABC and LMN congruent
ipn [44]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

No. We have 3 angles of triangle ABC congruent to 3 corresponding angles of triangle LMN. That is AAA. To use ASA, you need two angles and an included side. With three angles, you can prove the triangles similar, but not congruent.

Two students walk in the same direction along a straight path, at a constant speed - one at .90 m/s and the other at 1.90 m/s.a.
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

a)The second student arrive 7 minutes and 36 seconds sooner

b)They have to walk 598,51 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed= Distance/Time

We are looking for time now

Time = Distance/Speed

First student

Time = 780 m/0.90 m/s=866,66 seconds

Second student

Time = 780 m/1.90 m/s=410,52 seconds

Difference=866,66-410,52= 456,14 seconds

In minutes

Difference= 456,14 seconds /60=7 minutes 36 seconds

Distance=Speed x Time

Speed¹ x Time¹ =Speed² x Time²

Time¹= Time² + 5.50 min

5.50 min =350 seconds

Time²  =Speed¹ x Time¹ /Speed²

Time²  =Speed¹ x (Time² + 350 seconds  ) /Speed²

Time²  =0.9 x (Time² + 350 seconds  ) /1.9

Time²  =0,4737 x (Time² + 350 seconds  )

Time²  =0,4737 Time² + 165,79 seconds

Time²  - 0,4737 Time² = 165,79 seconds

0,5263 Time² = 165,79 seconds

Time² = 165,79 seconds/0,5263 =315,01 seconds

Distance=1,9 x 315,01 seconds = 598,51 m

Please can someone prove this equation
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the trigonometric identity

sin²x + cos²x = 1

Consider the left side

2cos²A - 1 ← replace 1 by sin²A + cos²A

= 2cos²A - ( sin²A + cos²A)

= 2cos²A - sin²A - cos²A

= cos²A - sin²A = right side ⇒ verified
