The given question is wrong.

Question:

Which expression is equivalent to the given expression using commutative property of addition? 2(x + b) + 3(xa).

Answer:

Option C:

3(xa) + 2(x + b)

Solution:

Given expression is 2(x + b) + 3(xa).

To find the equivalent expression using commutative property of addition.

Let us first define the commutative property of addition.

a + b = b + a

You can add in any order.

Now, write the given expression using commutative property.

2(x + b) + 3(xa) = 3(xa) + 2(x + b)

Option C is the correct answer.

Hence 3(xa) + 2(x + b) equivalent expression using commutative property of addition.

Identify the values of the variables. Give your answers in simplest radical form. HELP ASAP!!

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the sine/ tangent ratios to solve for x and y

note sin60° = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ and tan60° = $\sqrt{3}$

sin60° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{3\sqrt{6} }{y}$

ysin60° = 3 $\sqrt{6}$

y × $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ = 3 $\sqrt{6}$

multiply both sides by 2 and divide by $\sqrt{3}$

y v= 6 $\sqrt{\frac{6}{3} }$ = 6 $\sqrt{2}$

tan60° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{3\sqrt{6} }{x}$

xtan60° = 3 $\sqrt{6}$

x × $\sqrt{3}$ = 3 $\sqrt{6}$

divide both sides by $\sqrt{3}$

x = 3 $\sqrt{\frac{6}{3} }$ = 3 $\sqrt{2}$

An item is regularly priced at 85$. It is on sale for 80% off the regular price. How much is discounted from the regular price?

laila [671]

$68 is discounted from the regular price.

To find this, you first divide 80% by 100 to get 0.8 (the decimal form of the percentage). Then, simply multiply 0.8 by 85 (or vise verse) to get $68. Since the question is asking for how much is discounted from the regular price, the final answer would be $68.

I hope this helps!

There exist infinitely many common fractions $\frac{a}{b}$ , where $a > 0$ and $b > 0$ and for which $\frac{3}{5} < \fr

vredina [299]

Answer:

3/5 has the smallest denominator

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:

There exist infinitely many common fractions a/b , where a > 0 and b > 0 and for which 3/5 < a/b< 2/3. Of these common fractions, which has the smallest denominator? Express your answer as a common fraction.

Solution

A Common fraction is a rational number written in the form: a/b. Where a and b are both integers.

The denominator and numerator in this case are greater than zero. That is, they are non zeros.

The least common denominator (LCD) of two non- zero denominators is the smallest whole number that is divisible by each of the denominators.

To find the smallest denominator between 3/5 and 2/3, we would convert the fractions to equivalent fractions with a common denominator by finding their LCM (lowest common multiple).

When comparing two fractions with like denominators, the larger fraction is the one with the greater numerator and the smaller fraction is one with the smaller numerator.

In our solution after comparing, the smaller fraction would have the smallest denominator.

Find attached the solution.
