First we need to find the least common multiple of the denominators.

40 is is divisible by 8, 5, and 4, so we will use it as our common denominator.

Then we need to multiply the numerators by the same amount we had to multiply each denominator by to get 40.

For example, 8 is the denominator of the first fraction. To make it 40, we multiply by 5. We need to also multiply the numerator 3 by the same 5 to keep the fraction the same. So the 3 becomes 3*5 = 15.

The numerators in order after doing this are 15, -32, -15, and 50. Now add these add.

15-32-15+50 = 18.

Put this sum over the common denominator to get the final answer.

18/40 which can be simplified to 9/20.

The answer is 9/20

3/8+(-4/5)+(-3/8)+5/4

Remember a positive and a negative will be negative.

=3/8-4/5-3/8+5/4

Now you need a common denominator for all of them, but if you notice that 3/8-3/8=0, you are left with:
=-4/5+5/4

5 and 4 both go into 20. So your common denominator is 20. 5 goes in to 20 four times (so 4*4=16 =16/20).
4 goes in to 20 five times (so 5*5=25/20).

Remember 4/5 was negative:
=-16/20+25/20
=9/20

9 and 20 do not have any common factors, so this is the answer.

Hope this helps!! :)

Find the discriminant<br> 9x^2+14x+13=8x^2
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The discrimant of this equation is 144.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to move all the variables to one side to make the equation/expression into 0 by substracting 8x² to both sides :

9x² + 14x + 13 = 8x²

9x² + 14x + 13 - 8x² = 8x² - 8x²

x² + 14x + 13 = 0

It is given that the formula of discriminant is, D = b² - 4ac where a&b&c represent the number of the equation, ax²+bx+c = 0 :

x² + 14x + 13 = 0

D = b² - 4ac

= 14² - 4(1)(13)

= 196 - 52

= 144

I need help with this math problem
boyakko [2]
Consider the right triangle HBF. The Pythagorean theorem tells you ...
   HF² = HB² + BF²

The lengths HB and BF can be determined by counting grid squares, or by subtracting coordinates. Here, it is fairly convenient to count grid squares. When we do that, we find ...
   HB = 2
   BF = 5
Using these values in the equation above, we get
   HF² = 2² + 5²
   HF² = 4 + 25 = 29
Taking the square root gives the length HF.
   HF = √29
