You could multiply 1/4 by 3 and 1/6 by 2. You would get 3/12 and 2/12. The common denomonator is 12. 4 and 6 are both multiples of 12.

Answer:

A. y=-1.2x+59

B. 42.2 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Given:

Newspapers circulated in year 2004, y_{1}=59\textrm{ million}

Newspapers circulated in year 2014, y_{2}=47\textrm{ million}

Let the time x start at the year 2004. So, x_{1}=0

For the year 2014, x_{2}=2014-2004=10

Therefore, linear relationship between newspapers circulated and time passed since 2004 is given as:

y-y_{1}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}(x-x_{1})\\y-59=\frac{47-59}{10-0}(x-0)\\y-59=-\frac{12}{10}x\\y=-1.2x+59

Therefore, the equation describing the relationship is: y=-1.2x+59

Part B:

For the year 2018, x=2018-2004=14

Plug in 14 for x in the above equation and solve for y. This gives,

y=-1.2(14)+59\\y=-16.8+59\\y=42.2

Therefore, in the year 2018, the newspaper circulation will be 42.2 million.

Sue drank 2/5 of her water bottle and sally drank 4/10 of her water bottle how much water did both girls drank?
stealth61 [152]

well, clearly the LCD from the denominators of 5 and 10 is just 10, thus

\bf \stackrel{\textit{Sue}}{\cfrac{2}{5}}+\stackrel{\textit{Sally}}{\cfrac{4}{10}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{LCD of 10}}{\cfrac{(2)2~~+~~(1)4}{10}}\implies \cfrac{2+4}{10}\implies \cfrac{6}{10}\implies \stackrel{\textit{simplified}}{\cfrac{3}{5}}
