Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion a mixed number 3 8

8

to a improper fraction: 3 8/8 = 3 8

8

= 3 · 8 + 8

8

= 24 + 8

8

= 32

8

To find new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 3 by the denominator 8. Whole number 3 equally 3 * 8

8

= 24

8

b) Add the answer from previous step 24 to the numerator 8. New numerator is 24 + 8 = 32

c) Write previous answer (new numerator 32) over the denominator 8.

Three and eight eighths is thirty-two eighths

Divide: 32

8

: 8

6

= 32

8

· 6

8

= 32 · 6

8 · 8

= 192

64

= 64 · 3

64 · 1

= 3

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 32

8

is 8

32

) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the next intermediate step cancelling by a common factor of 64 gives 3

1

.

In words - thirty-two eighths divided by eight sixths = three.

Answer:

2 17/32

Step-by-step explanation:

converting mixed numbers to fractions, reducing where possible, our initial equation becomes,

27/8 ÷ 4/3

Applying the fractions formula for division,

27/8 x 4 = 81/32

Simplifying 81/32, the answer is

= 2 17/32

a. f(a) =5a+12

we have 1. a=6

Therefore, where ever we find a we'll substitute in 6

f(6) =5(6) +12

6f=30+12

6f=42

so therefore 1. a=6 will match c on the right

2. a=2

f(2) =5(2) +12

2f = 10+12

2f = 22

therefore 2. a=2 will match a on the right

3. a=4

f(4) =5(4) +12

4f=20+12

4f=32

therefore 3. a=4 will match d on the right

4. a=5

f(5) =5(5) +12

5f=25+12

5f=37

therefore 4. a=5 will match b on the right

In △ABC, D is a point on side AC¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ such that BD=DC and ∠BCD measures 70∘. What is the degree measure of ∠ADB?
777dan777 [17]
If angle BCD measures 70° then so does angle DBC (because you have formed an isoceles triangle inside the larger ΔABC and the two legs are equal so the two angles have to be equal.   So we have a two 70° angles which leaves 40° for the 3rd angle, which is ∠BDC.   

Since ∠BDC and ∠ADB are supplementary (180°) - that leaves 140° for ∠ADB and is our answer

12.<br> What is the<br> equation of a circle with center (-7, -3) and radius 2?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

(x + 7)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a circle is:

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius. We can substitute the information given to obtain:

(x + 7)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 4

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question
Paladinen [302]
We have to take out the greatest common factor from the given polynomial to factorize the expression. If you observe the terms of the polynomial, the greatest factor that is common to all the terms is 4 x^{4}. So taking it out as common, the factorization of the polynomial will be:

16 x^{9} -36 x^{5}-8 x^{4}  \\  \\ &#10;=4 x^{4}(4 x^{5}-9x-2)

So the option C gives the correct answer
