Can you get the same sum when you use 12 rather than 6 as a common denominator for the fractions 2\3 and 2\1? Explains

Lets see...
The answer is yes! This is because when you solve for a common denominator, you need to multiply the numerator by what you multiplied to get the denominator. I solved the problem for you, which is displayed in the picture below:

You can see that the answer in improper form is 8/3 and in proper form is 2 2/3. If you look at the work, I believe you can draw conclusions from there. I am not good at explaining and I apologize. Good luck on your homework, common denominators are not hard to solve and I bet you will do a wonderful job in solving questions like these! You will soon become a Master at solving these kinds of questions in about a day from now and/or when you get to the upper grades like me! :)

Calculus Newton's Law of Cooling

Sources: #1 – 5: Smith/Minton Calculus 4th ed. #6 – 8: Thomas/Finney Calculus 9th ed.

Use Newton's Law of Cooling T −TS = (TO −TS )e−kt

( ) to solve the following. Round temperature

answers to the nearest tenth of a degree, and time (duration) answers to the nearest hundredth of a

minute.

1) A cup of fast-food coffee is 180°F when freshly poured. After 2 minutes in a room at 70°F, the coffee has

cooled to 165°F. Find the time that it will take for the coffee to cool to 120°F.

165− 70 = (180 − 70)e−2 k

5) At 10:07 pm, you find a secret agent murdered. Next to him is a martini that got shaken before he could stir

it. Room temperature is 70°F. The martini warms from 60°F to 61°F in the 2 minutes from 10:07 pm to

10:09 pm. If the secret agent's martinis are always served at 40°F, what was the time of death (rounded to the

8) A pan of warm water (46°C) was put into a refrigerator. Ten minutes later, the water's temperature was 39°C.

10 minutes after that it was 33°C. Use Newton's Law of Cooling to estimate the temperature of the

refrigerator.

39 −TS = (46 −TS )e−10 k ⇒ e−10 k = 39 −TS

46 −TS

33−TS = (39 −TS )e−10 k ⇒ e−10 k = 33−TS

A corner store sells two kinds of baked goods: cakes and pies. A cake costs $4 and a pie costs $6. In one day, the store sold 9
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

the number of cakes sell is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of cakes sold is shown below;

Let us assume

The cake be C

And, the pie cost be P

Given that

There is two types of baked goods sold

The cost of the cake is $4

And, the cost of the pie cost is $64

Now the store sold 9 baked goods for a total of $44

So, the equation would be

C + P = 9

P = 9 - C ...... (1)

4C + 6P = 44............(2)

Now put the value of P in equation 2

4C + 6(9 - C) = 44

4C + 54  - 6C = 44

-2C = -10

C = 5

And, P = 4

hence, the number of cakes sell is 5
