My son is trying to figure out how to decompose 8/12 and what he has to work with is x/2 + x/2 =8/12

X/2 + x/2 = 2x / 2 or just x. So x = 8/12 which can be simplified by their greatest common factor of 4. Divide both top and bottom by 4. This gives you x = 2/3. 

Your answer for that equation is x = 2/3

Not sure what you mean by "decompose" though.

Find the diagonal of a square whose sides are of the given measure.<br><br> Given =
Contact [7]

Answer:

7\sqrt{42}

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal is the hypotenuse of the right triangle with legs 7\sqrt{3}

Use Pythagoras' identity to solve for the diagonal d

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

d² = (7\sqrt{3})² + (7\sqrt{3})²

    = 147 + 147

    = 294 ( take the square root of both sides )

d = \sqrt{294} = 7\sqrt{42} ≈ 45.37 ( to 2 dec. places )

Systems of the Body Constructed Response
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

note: there may be other possible explanations and more body systems can be involved and I can go into much greater detail

1: Nervous system signals your muscles in mouth to abduct and adduct as well as your salivary glands to produce saliva to break down the food, as well as prepare the stomach to digest the food

2: Muscular system moves muscles in mouth to break food down into smaller pieces so there is greater surface area for digestive enzymes to work on the food, then muscles in oesophagus move food to stomach, where stomach muscles churn the broken down food around to speed up digestion

3: Digestive system releases numerous digestive enzymes into the food to break down lipids, carbohydrates and proteins. Small intestines absorb nutrients into bloodstream, and large intestine absorbs water.

4: Excretory system removes excess mostly dry waste through the anus as well as urine from ureter.

[khan academy] <br><br> hello, please help me with this if youre able to, thanks uwu
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

11 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate CD use the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = C(- 4, 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = D(- 4, - 5)

CD = \sqrt{(-4+4)^2+(-5-6)^2}

     = \sqrt{0^2+(-11)^2}

     = \sqrt{0+121} = \sqrt{121} = 11
