What is the sum of a-1/abc^3 + 3-b/abc^3

Lyrx [107]

The answer is $\frac{a-b+2}{abc^{3} }$

The expression is $\frac{a-1}{abc^{3} } + \frac{3-b}{abc^{3} }$

Since $\frac{a}{x} + \frac{b}{x} = \frac{a+b}{x}$ , then:

$\frac{a-1}{abc^{3} } + \frac{3-b}{abc^{3} } = \frac{a-1+3-b}{abc^{3} }= \frac{a-b-1+3}{abc^{3} }=\frac{a-b+2}{abc^{3} }$

20 is equal to 5 less than twice a number.

sweet [91]

If we have a number represented by n, we have 20 is equal to, so 20=something. That something is "5 less than twice a number". 5 less than something means something-5, and something-5=20. Since 5 is less than twice a number, and twice a number is n+n=2n, we have 2n-5=20
Actually solving the problem, we can start by adding 5 to both sides, resulting in 2n=25. Next, we can divide both sides by 2 to get n=12.5

The graph of y > 1 2 x - 2 is shown. Which set contains only points that satisfy the inequality? A) {(6, 1), (-1, -3), (4, 4)

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Option B) {(1, -1), (-3, -3), (2, 4)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct inequality is

$y>\frac{1}{2}x-2$

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area above the dashed line $y=\frac{1}{2}x-2$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

If a ordered pair satisfy the inequality, then the ordered pair must lie in the shaded area of the solution

Verify each case

case A) {(6, 1), (-1, -3), (4, 4)}

ordered pair (6,1)

For x=6, y=1

substitute in the inequality

$1>\frac{1}{2}(6)-2$

$1>1$ ---> is not true

therefore

The point not satisfy the inequality

case B) {(1, -1), (-3, -3), (2, 4)}

ordered pair (1,-1)

For x=1, y=-1

substitute in the inequality

$-1>\frac{1}{2}(1)-2$

$-1>-1.5$ ---> is true

The point satisfy the inequality

ordered pair (-3,3)

For x=-3, y=3

substitute in the inequality

$3>\frac{1}{2}(-3)-2$

$3>-3.5$ ---> is true

The point satisfy the inequality

ordered pair (2,4)

For x=2, y=4

substitute in the inequality

$4>\frac{1}{2}(2)-2$

$4>-1$ ---> is true

The point satisfy the inequality

therefore

The set contains only points that satisfy the inequality

case C) {(1, -1), (-3, -3), (4, -2)}

ordered pair (4,-2)

For x=4, y=-2

substitute in the inequality

$-2>\frac{1}{2}(4)-2$

$-2>0$ ---> is not true

therefore

The point not satisfy the inequality

case D) {(-1, -3), (-3, -3), (2, 4)}

ordered pair (-1,-3)

For x=-1, y=-3

substitute in the inequality

$-3>\frac{1}{2}(-1)-2$

$-3>-2.5$ ---> is not true

therefore

The point not satisfy the inequality

How to find the scale factor of something

AysviL [449]

Answer:

To find the scale factor, locate two corresponding sides, one on each figure. Write the ratio of one length to the other to find the scale factor from one figure to the other. In this example, the scale factor from the blue figure to the red figure is 1.6 : 3.2, or 1 : 2.
