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

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. Not all tiles will be used.
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Graph A → y=√x.

Graph B → y=(√x) - 1.

Graph C → y=√(x-1).

Graph D → y= -√x.

Graph E → y= -√(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph 'A' intercepts the y-axis at (0, 0). Therefore it belongs to the function y=√x.

The graph 'D' is exactly the same graph 'A' but reflected across the x-axis. Therefore, it belongs to the function y=-√x.

The function 'C' is exactly the same function y=√x but translated one unit to the right, therefore, the solution function is y=√(x-1)

The graph 'E' is exactly the same graph 'C' but reflected across the x-axis, therefore the function is: y= -√(x-1)

In the options you have two times the function y=√x. I assume that's a mistake. The graph 'B' corresponds to y = (√x) - 1

How do you solve -60 =5(2x+10)
finlep [7]
You would have to do distribution you would do 5(2x) which would give you 10 and 5(10) which gives you 50 so your equation would be -60=10x+50 then you would subtract 50 from both sides which would give you -110 your equation would be -110=10x divided 10 on both sides and your answer would be x=-11
