Notice how 1/2 and 3/8 are positive numbers. We add two positive numbers meaning that the result should be larger. However 2/5 = 0.4 is not larger than 1/2 = 0.5

So something went wrong with the adding. It turns out that the error is when the person added the numbers in the denominators (2 and 8 to get 10). This is not allowed. The denominators must be the same and stay the same in order for the fractions to be added.

For example: 1/7 + 2/7 = (1+2)/7 = 3/7
The 7s in the denominator do not change

Therefore the answer is choice B) Not true because 2/5 < 1/2

Alright, lets get started.

The answer Sandra got is correct that is zero but there are some mistakes she made while writing steps.

2 cot(\frac{-9\pi}{2})  =  2 cot(\frac{9\pi}{2}) Incorrect step

Because as per even/odd identity,

Cot (-Θ) = - cot (Θ)

Hence

2 cot (\frac{-9\pi}{2}) = - 2 cot (\frac{9\pi}{2})

Now,

It could be written as

-2 cot (\frac{9\pi}{2}) =   -2 cot (\frac{\pi}{2})


-2 * 0

0

Hence the answer is 0. : Answer

Hope it will help :)

Answer:

x=13

Step-by-step explanation:

By the definition of an angle bisector, we have that 8x-23=5x+16.

We can add 23 to both sides to get 8x=5x+39.

We can then subtract 5x from both sides to get 3x=39.

We can finally divide both sides by 3 to get \boxed{x=13}

You look at an ant under a magnifying glass. Find the actual length of the ant. The image of the ant is 8 times the ants actual
ella [17]
Divide 5.6 by 8 which is 0.7. Since the image of the ant is 8 times bigger we need to divide by 8 to make it actual size. 

The ant's actual length is 0.7 cm.
