Their combined weight would be 7 2/14. here are the steps of how I got my answer.
1. I made the answers into improper fractions. 3 1/2= 7/2 and 4 1/7= 29/7.
2. then I found the least common multiple (LCM) of 2 and 7 which is 14.
3. next in order to make both denominators become 14 I cant just make 7/2 into 7/14 and 29/7 into 29/14.  so I multiplied 29/7 by 2 which got me 58/14 and 7/2 by 7 which got me 42/14.
4. then I did 42/14+ 58/14= 100/14.
5. Then the last step was to make the improper fraction 100/14 into a proper fraction. Now how do you do that? BY DIVIDING! I divided 100 by 14 and I got my answer of 7 2/14.

Hope this helped! :)

What is the pythetherom
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

The Pythagorean Theorem states: In any right triangle, the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (the two sides that meet at a right angle).  

The Pythagorean theorem can be written as an equation relating the lengths of the sides a, b and c, often called the Pythagorean equation:  

a2 + b2 = c2

xz_007 [3.2K]

<span>A = hours for plan A
B = hours for plan B</span>

<span>Monday: 6A + 5B = 7
Tuesday: 2A + 3B = 3</span>

use elimination by multiplying the 2nd equation by 3.

Doing that we get 3(2A + 3B = 3) = 6A + 9B = 9

<span>So the two equations are now:
6A + 9B = 9</span>

6A + 5B = 7

Subtract and we have 4B = 2

B = 2/4 = 1/2 of an hour

Now put 1/2 back into either equation to solve for A

<span>6A + 5(1/2) = 7
6A + 5/2 = 7
6A = 14/2 -5/2
6A = 9/2
divide by 6 to get A = 9/12 = ¾  hours</span>

<span>Plan A = 3/4 hour</span>

<span> Plan B = 1/2 hour</span>
