1/5 five being the denominator, because in math you must always simplify

For 2/5 the denominator is 5 remember the bottom number is always the denominator and the top number is always the numerator.

For 1/10 the denominator is 10.

The bigger fraction is 2/5

1/2,1/3,1/8 find the sum

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

23/24

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the sum you must ad.

Fractions can only be added and subtracted when the denominators (the bottom numbers) are the same.

24 is the smallest number that 2, 3 and 8 go into.

1/2 = 12/24, 1/3 = 8/24, 1/8 = 3/24

$\frac{12}{24} + \frac{8}{24} + \frac{3}{24} = \frac{23}{24}$

23/24

If it takes 5 years for an animal population to double, how many years will it take until the population

muminat

9514 1404 393

Answer:

7.92 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find t such that ...

3 = 2^(t/5)

where 2^(t/5) is the annual multiplier when doubling time is 5 years.

Taking logs, we have ...

log(3) = (t/5)log(2)

t = 5·log(3)/log(2) ≈ 7.92 . . . years

It will take about 7.92 years for the population to triple.

Solve the equation <br> (If possible please show work)

deff fn [24]

Answer:

$x=-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

$-2(-x-4)+3=-7-4x$

First, distribute the left side:

$-2(-x)-2(-4)+3=-7-4x\\2x+8+3=-7-4x$

Add values on the left side:

$2x+11=-7-4x$

Add 7 to both sides. The right side cancels:

$(2x+11)+7=(-7-4x)+7\\2x+18=-4x$

Subtract 2x from both sides. The left side cancels:

$(2x+18)-2x=(-4x)-2x\\18=-6x$

Divide both sides by -6:

$(-6x)/-6=18/-6\\x=-3$

Therefore, x equals -3.
