<h3>Andy is not correct because when adding the 2 fractions, he needs to create fractional parts with the same denominator.  NOTHING can be added unless the units are the same.  The denominator of a fraction are the units.  He needed to make 3/5 = 12/20 and 1/4 = 5/20.  Adding these together would be 17/20, making 3/20 of them NOT action or comedy.  17/20 + 3/20 = 20/20 or the total.</h3>

Leona [35]

Answer: D.

Step-by-step explanation: First you find the common factor, which is 5x³y. Then you write in parenthesis what's left over from each term. So  the answer should look like: 5x³y(-3x⁵-4z+9).

Which of the following are solutions to the equation sinx cos(pi/7)-sin(pi/7)cosx=sqrt(2)/2
Arturiano [62]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

sin ( x - ( pi / 7 ) ) = - sqrt ( 2 ) / 2
x - ( pi / 7 ) = - pi / 4 + 2n*pi or x - ( pi / 7 ) = (5pi / 4 ) + 2n*pi
x = ( pi / 7 ) - ( pi / 4 ) + 2n*pi or x = ( 5pi / 4 ) + ( pi / 7 ) + 2n*pi
x = ( - 3pi / 28 ) + 2n*pi

Solve the problem.
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

16.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer by using the following formula:

final people=(initial people)+((initial people)*(percent increase)) which can be written as:

percent increase=((final people)-(initial people))/(initial people) so:

percent increase=(83-71)/71=0.169=16.9%

In conclusion, the percent increase is 16.9%.
