Theresa is finding 1/4+3/5 find her mistake

Mathematics
1 answer:
avanturin [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Theresa's forgot to find a common denominator between the two fractions and instead, tried to add the different denominators together.

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe I found the remaining information required to answer this question.

The worksheet has a drawing of Theresa with a thought bubble. Inside the bubble reads:

¹/₄ + ³/₅ = 1 + 3/4 + 5

Theresa's forgot to find a common denominator between the two fractions and instead, tried to add the different denominators together.

To get the correct answer, you first need to find the least common denominator. In this case, the LCD would be 20. This means I have to convert both fractions to have a denominator of 20.

¹/₄

4 x 5 = 20. This means that I have to multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 5 which gives us ⁵/₂₀

³/₅

5 x 4 = 20. This means that I have to multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 4 which gives us ¹²/₂₀

Now we can add the two up and get ¹⁷/₂₀

Trava [24]

Answer:

Mean = -1,115,000 per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = (Σx)/N

The mean is the sum of variables divided by the number of variables

Σx = sum of variable = change in number of visitors over a 10 year period = -11150000

N = number of variables = 10

Mean = (-11150000)/10

Mean = -1,115,000 per year.

Hope this Helps!!!

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The probability of a big storm is 40%.

Now, you can find a D10 (a die with 10 faces)

You can assign 4 numbers (0, 1, 2, 3) to the event "there is a major storm"

in this way, you have 40% of having a storm.

and the other 6 numbers (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) to the event "there is not a major storm". This means that we have 60% of not having a storm.

now, when you roll the dice you can see if a year there will be a storm or not.

Now, you roll the dice 5 times (for the 5 years) and take note of the results and the number of storms in those 5 rolls.

Now do the same thing a bunch of times, at least 25 times.

Now, you recorded the results in each set of rolls, now see the number of sets that have at least years with storms.

Take that number and divide it by the total number of sets of data (in this case 25, for example)

The result is the probability that we are looking for.

Identify an equation in slope-intercept form for the line parallel to y = -3x + 7
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

B and D are the only ones with the same slope (-3x) which is required for the line to be parallel.

and if you graph it out, you will find that B is the correct answer because it passes through (2,-4).

Expand (3x+7)(3x-7) =
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

9 {x}^{2}  - 49

Step-by-step explanation:

Do FOIL, first outside inside last

3x × 3x = 9x^2

3x × -7 = -21x

7 × 3x = 21x

7 × -7 = -49

9 {x}^{2}   - 21x + 21x - 49 \: midde \: cancels \: each \: other \: out

So it would just be 9x^2 - 49
