Factor out the coefficient of the variable 5/6s+2/3

1 answer:

6 0

Okay. so I'm gonna assume you know what factor out means--were gonna take out 5/6. what we need to know is, how does that affect our ending number 2/3? well, we're gonna have 5/6 times some stuff first off, right?

5/6 ( )

so what's in the parenthesis? well, if we distribute in our mind, S would just have to be by itself for it to work out. so we have

5/6 ( s )

but what about 2/3? well, if we're multiplying everything on the inside by 5/6, how can be get it to cancel and leave 2/3 alone? we could divide 2/3 by 5/6, right?

5/6 ( s + (2/3) / (5/6) )

now, when we distribute our 5/6, we'll have just 2/3 at the end. now let's simplify that end term so it looks a little better. if we divide by a fracion, that's the same as multiplying by the flipped version, so let's do that.

2/3 / 5/6 = 2/3 × 6/5 = 2 (6) / 5 (3) = 12/15

we can reduce 12/15 by dividing the top and bottom by three.

= 4/5

so our final answer would be:

5/6 [S + 4/5] you can redistribute to make sure it matches. Anyway, hope that helps!

Quadrilateral A has side lengths 2,3,5 and 6. Quadrilateral B has side lengths 4,5, 8 and 10. Could one of the quadrilaterals be

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Quadrilateral A: 2,3,5 and 6

Quadrilateral B: 4,5, 8 and 10

Required

Determine if one is a scale of another

To do that, we have to divide the corresponding lengths to give ratio.

Considering Side of A = 2 and Side of B = 4

$Ratio = \frac{B}{A}$

$Ratio = \frac{4}{2}$

$Ratio = 2$

Considering Side of A = 3 and Side of B = 5

$Ratio = \frac{B}{A}$

$Ratio = \frac{5}{3}$

$Ratio = 1.67$

There's no need to check further, since the two ratios calculated so far do not have the same value;

Hence, one quadrilateral is not a scale of the other
