Answer: 2 5/15 (mixed number) or 35/15 (improper fraction)
Step-by-step explanation:
For these problems, I like to make the mixed number an improper fraction, so 7 1/3 becomes 22/3 and 5 4/5 becomes 29/5. Now, because there denominators are not the same, we can find a LCM or least common multiple to make a common denominator. 15 is the least common denominator so we can turn 22/3 to 110/15 and 29/5 to 145/15. Now we can subtract the numerators. 145-110= 35. So 35/15. It is 2 5/15 as a mixed number. Hope this helps!
Answer:
We are given that the total volume of the sandbox is 330 cubic feet.
We are given the side measurements of 3 feet tall and 10 feet wide.
3 x 10 = 30 sq2
V(volume)= 330 ft3
330 ft3 divided by 30 sq2 = 11ft
In conclusion, the length of the box would be:
= 11 ft

Answer:
1) (-3,-2)
2) x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The vertex of a parabola is the turning point that is the minimum or maximum of the graph, based on the shape of the parabola. In this case, the vertex is the minimum. By looking at the coordinate points, we can tell that the minimum value where the graph changes the direction is at (-3,-2).
2) The line of symmetry is the line on the graph that cuts the shape exactly in half. This means that if you were to fold the graph along this line, the two sides would be identical. All parabolas have a line of symmetry and it always matches the vertex. The equation for the line of symmetry will be x= whatever the x-value of the vertex is. So, for this graph, the line of symmetry is x=-3.
Answer:
$30.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price of the sweater is $75.00. The new sale price is the original price of 100% less 60% of the original price. That means the sales price is 40% of the original price.
You can do this 2 ways:
1. $75 x 60% or .60 = $45
$75-45 = $30
or
2. $75 x 40% or .40 = $30
Answer:
a) -8/9
b) The series is a convergent series
c) 1/17
Step-by-step explanation:
The series a+ar+ar²+ar³⋯ =∑ar^(n−1) is called a geometric series, and r is called the common ratio.
If −1<r<1, the geometric series is convergent and its sum is expressed as ∑ar^(n−1) = a/1-r
a is the first tern of the series.
a) Rewriting the series ∑(-8)^(n−1)/9^n given in the form ∑ar^(n−1) we have;
∑(-8)^(n−1)/9^n
= ∑(-8)^(n−1)/9•(9)^n-1
= ∑1/9 • (-8/9)^(n−1)
From the series gotten, it can be seen in comparison that a = 1/9 and r = -8/9
The common ratio r = -8/9
b) Remember that for the series to be convergent, -1<r<1 i.e r must be less than 1 and since our common ratio which is -8/9 is less than 1, this implies that the series is convergent.
c) Since the sun of the series tends to infinity, we will use the formula for finding the sum to infinity of a geometric series.
S∞ = a/1-r
Given a = 1/9 and r = -8/9
S∞ = (1/9)/1-(-8/9)
S∞ = (1/9)/1+8/9
S∞ = (1/9)/17/9
S∞ = 1/9×9/17
S∞ = 1/17
The sum of the geometric series is 1/17
