When adding/subtracting fractions, u have to find the common denominator. In this problem, u have to find the common denominator of 3 and 12. What number goes into both 3 and 12 ? That number is 12.

2/3 = 8/12
11/12 = 11/12

now we can add.....8/12 + 11/12 (just add the numerators, the denominators stay the same) = 19/12 which equals 1 7/12

Use the discriminant to determine the nature of the roots of the following equation.

kvv77 [185]

Discussion

The discriminate is b^2 - 4*a*c

The general equation for a quadratic is ax^2 + bx + c

In this equation's case

a = 1

b= -5

c = - 3

Solve

(-5)^2 - 4*(1)*(-3)

25 - (-12)

25 + 12

Note

Since the discriminate is > 0, the roots are real and different. The roots do exist and there are 2 of them.

Maristella is constructing an isosceles triangle to use as a model in her Algebra class. The perimeter of her triangle is 24 cm.

Vlada [557]

Isolating s, the equation written in terms of s is:

$s = 12 - 0.5b$

-------------------------

The equation for the length of the third side, as stated in the problem,("Maristella uses the equation b = 24 – 2s to find b, the length of the triangle's third side") is:

$b = 24 - 2s$
