Yes, because in order for 5/8 to have the same denominator as 11/20, you multiply 5 and 8 by 2.5, which equals 12.5/20.

5/8 is more than 11/20

If we find the lower common multiple of the denominators which is 160 then we can multiply the top numerators by the opposite denominators

5x20=100
11x8=88

We now have
$\frac{100}{160} and \frac{88}{160}$

The one on the left is simplified to 5/8 and the right is simplified to 11/20

Answer:

(5,9) and (5,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the point is (5,6), and the question tells you to plot two points that are three units away from (5,6) but share the same X coordinate.

The X coordinate is 5. And 6 is the Y coordinate, if we do 6-3=2. 6+3=9.

Find the value of A , B and C from the following figure

AveGali [126]

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in the given figure the value of x will be 70° ( being alternative angle )

x = 70°

Now...

y = 60° ( being corresponding angle )

Now...

60° + 70° + z = 180° ( the sum of interior angle of triangle is 180°

z = 180° - 130°

z = 50° ..

Which expression gives the x-coordinate of the solution of the system?

aalyn [17]

To find the the expression that gives the value of $x$ we are going to proceed as follows:
$5x+3y=-18$ equation (1)
$2x-4y=-28$ equation (1)

Step 1. solve for $y$ in equation (2)
$2x-4y=-28$
$-4y=-28-2x$
$y= \frac{-28-2x}{-4}$
$y=7+ \frac{1}{2} x$ equation (3)

Step 3. Replace equation (3) in equation (1) and solve for $x$
$5x+3y=-18$
$5x+3(7+ \frac{1}{2} x)=-18$
$5x+21+ \frac{3}{2} x=-18$
$\frac{13}{2} x=-39$
$x= \frac{-39(2)}{(13)}$
$x=-6$

We can conclude that the expression that gives the value of $x$ is: $x=-6$

Does anyone know what the inequality would be?

dsp73

Let x = number of batches.

So for every batch, you need 2 cups of flour, and you have 20 cups of flour. You cannot make a batch if you don't have the sufficient amount. So using our information, our inequality is $2x \leq 20$ . However, this can be further simplified.

For this inequality, divide both sides by 2, and <u>your inequality is $x\leq 10$ .</u> <u>In context, you can make up to 10 batches of cookies.</u>
