What is -4/5+ 7/15 when you simplify ?

Answer: -\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

When you add fractions with different denominators, you need to find the Least common denominator (LCD):

Descompose the denominators (5 and 15) into its prime factors and then choose the commons and non-commons with the highest exponents:

5=5*1\\15=3*5\\\\LCD=5*3*1=15

Divide the LCD by each original denominator of each fraction and multiply the result by each original numerator of each fraction. After this, you can add the numerators and reduce the fraction.

Then:

-\frac{4}{5}+\frac{7}{15}=\frac{-(4)(3)+7(1)}{15}=\frac{-12+7}{15}=\frac{-5}{15}=-\frac{1}{3}

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4/5+ 7/15

We need to get a common denominator of 15

-4/5 *5/5 = -12/15

Add the two fractions together

-12/15 +7/15

-5/15

Divide the top and bottom by 5

-1/3

A
Volume of the Cylinder
Givens
H = 60 yards.
Diameter = 20 yards
pi = 3.14

Formula
V = pi * r^2 * h

Calculations
r = d/2
r = 32/2
r = 16

V =  3.14 * 16^2 * 60 
V = 48230 cubic yards [Cylinder's Volume]

Cone
<em>Formula</em> 
V = 1/3 pi r^2 H

<em>Givens</em>
pi = 3.14
r = 16 yards
h = 20 yards

<em>Sub and solve</em>
V = 1/3 3.14 * 16^2 * 20
V = 5359 cubic yards.

<em>Total Volume of the structure</em>
48230 + 5359 = 53589 Cubic Yards

<em>Water Content</em>
The answer to this part requires a proportion.

1 Cubic yard will hold 201.97 gallons.
53589 yd^3 = x

1/201.97 = 53589 /x  [ You should get a pretty big answer]
x = 201.87 * 53589
x = 10 819 092 gallons can be held by the tank. 

10 819 092 gallons <<<< answer

B 
If the height of both the cylinder and the cone remain the same. If the radius doubles in both the cylinder and the cone then the tank will hold 4 times as much. 

Total volume before doubling the radius = pi * r^2 h + 1/3 pi r^2 h
New Total Volume = pi * (2*r)^2 h + 1/3 pi * (2r)^2 h
New Total volume = pi * 4r^2 h + 1/3 pi *4 r^2 h
New Total Volume = 4 [pi r^2 h + 1/3 pi r^2 h]
but pi r^2 h + 1/3 pi r^2 h is the total volume before doubling the radius

New volume = 4 original volume. <<<<< answer to part B

Answer:

7.) 7

10.)  0

Step-by-step explanation:

When it means "evaluate the function", it's in essence asking us to see what the function spits out when we feed it a certain input. Our inputs are our x values, which spit out a y value.

Evaluating the function when x = 1:

Let's look at where the function has an x value of 1. We see it near the bottom of the table and see the y value associated with the input is 7. So when the function is fed 1 as an input, it spits out 7.

Evaluating the function when f(x) = - 2:

This one is a weird because of the new notation. Just think of it as some value of f, which we don't know (so we represent it as an x-variable) must equal -2. So let's look at our table to find out where our output is -2. We find that when f(x) = -2 the input is 0. So the input which gives -2 is 0.

The prism below is packed with no gaps between the cube that measure 1/4 ft. What is the volume, in cubic feet of the right rect
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: 1/2

First you do 4/4 times 4/4. Which is equal to 1. Then, you multiply by 2/4 to get 1/2.
