I would say that they equally brought the same quantity. 3/4 is 3 out of 4, 2/3 is 2 out of 3. I just see that they both made equal effort.

Elaine brought more salad to the picnic.
To figure this question out, you have to make the fractions have common denominators. The LCM (Least Common Multiple) of 3 and 4 (the denominators of the fractions) is 12. 
3/4= 9/12 (Elaine) (Numerator times 3, Denominator times 3)
2/3= 8/12 (Jake) (Numerator times 4, Denominator times 4)

the polynomial ky^3+3y^2-3 and 2y^3-5y+k when divided by (y-5) leave the same remainder in each case. Find the value of k.
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

k=\frac{153}{124}

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Remainder Theorem; when P(y) is divided by y-a, the remainder is p(a).

The first polynomial is :

p(y)=ky^3+3y^2-3

When p(y) is divided by y-5, the remainder is

p(5)=k(5)^3+3(5)^2-3

p(5)=125k+75-3

p(5)=125k+72

When the second polynomial:

m(y)= 2y^3-5y+k is divided by y-5.

The remainder is;

m(5)= 2(5)^3-5(5)+k

m(5)= 225+k

The two remainders are equal;

\implies 125k+72=225+k

\implies 125k-k=225-72

\implies 124k=153

k=\frac{153}{124}

Please can some explain how to identify angles that on the same segment? ​
sp2606 [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles in the same segment. The angles at the circumference subtended by the same arc are equal. More simply, angles in the same segment are equal.

Picture 1  a° = a°  they are the same

Picture 2  p= 52°  q= 40° Angles in the same segment are equal. if they ask you to calculate you just show both angles p= 52 and q=40.

Picture 3 + 4  Let the obtuse angle MOQ = 2x.  

Using the circle theorem, the angle at the centre is twice   the angle at the circumference.

Therefore picture 4 tells us and proves;

Angle MNQ = x and angle MPQ = x.

Picture 5

A cyclic quadrilateral is a quadrilateral drawn inside a circle. Every corner of the quadrilateral must touch the circumference of the circle.

The second shape is not a cyclic quadrilateral. One corner does not touch the circumference.

Picture 6

The opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral add up to 180°.

a + c = 180°

b + d = 180°

Picture 7

Example

Calculate the angles a and b.

The opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral add up to 180°.

This is a picture that couldn't be added but has a quadrilateral occupying half the triangle consisting of 3 arcs the middle one was 140 and proved part of one triangle. The x (a) missing angle showed below a = 180-60 = 120 °

So hopefully this will help you remember the format here for quadrilateral shapes within a circle.

b = 180 - 140 = 40°

a = 180 - 60 = 120°

Belle is going to make chili for a football party. It will take 1 hour and 10 minutes to prepare all the ingredients and assembl
MrRa [10]

Answer:

1:10pm

Step-by-step explanation:

1st, you add all the time needed to make the chili & cook it.

1 hour + 10 minutes + 1 hour + 40 minutes =  2 hours & 50 minutes.

Now you work backwards from 4:00pm.

You go back 2 hours & you would be at 2:00pm

Now you go back another 50 minutes & you would be at 1:10pm

To double check, you can add 2 hours & 50 minutes to 1:10pm & you would get 4:00pm
