Convert all fractions to have the same denominator. 

To convert, we must find the least common multiple of the two denominators of the fractions:

Multiples of 4: {4,8,12,16,20}
Multiples of 5: {5,10,15,20}

The least common multiple of 4 and 5 is 20. 

Multiply the fractions by a number that will result in the denominator being 20:

\frac{3}{4} * \frac{5}{5} = \frac{15}{20}

\frac{2}{5} * \frac{4}{4} = \frac{8}{20}

The equation should now look like this:

\frac{15}{20} = w + \frac{8}{20}

Subtract both sides by 8/20 to get w by itself:

\frac{15}{20} - \frac{8}{20} = \frac{7}{20}

w = \frac{7}{20}

The value of w is 7/20.

First, you subtract 2/5 from 3/4 
To do this you must make them have a common denominator.
This is simple just multiply the top and bottom by the other factors denominator.

\frac{3*5}{4*5} = \frac{15}{20} 
\frac{2*4}{5*4} = \frac{8}{20}
Now just subtract 15-8 and get \frac{7}{20}
which cannot simplify so w=\frac{7}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

If the figure is triangle then,

Let PR be x

So,

PQ+QR+PR= 180 (Sum of all the angles of the triangle)

Therefore,

6x+25+16-3x+x=180

4x+36=180

4x= 180/36

x= 144/4

X= 36

NOW,

PQ= 6x+25

= 6(36)+25

= 216+25 = 241= PQ.

QR = 16-3x

= 16-3(36)

= 16-108

= -92

PR = 36

hope it helps

Suppose that a point moves along some unknown curve y = f(x) in such a way that, at
spayn [35]

Answer:

f(x) = x³/3 - 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the equation of the curve, integrate the slope

f(x) = integral of x²

= (x^(2+1))/3 + c

f(x) = x³/3 + c

To find c, use the given point

1 = 2³/3 + c

c = 1 - 8/3 = -5/3

f(x) = x³/3 - 5/3

Genber wiil evaluate an 8th degree polynomial in x at x=10 using the remainder theorem and synthetic division.how many coefficie
lisabon 2012 [21]
An 8th-degree polynomial needs 9 terms that involve
 x⁸, x⁷, ..., x¹, and x⁰.

x=10 implies that (x-10) is a factor of the polynomial according to the Remainder theorem.

Let the polynomial be of the form
f(x) = a₁x⁸ + a₂x⁷ + a₃x⁶ +a₄x⁵ + a₅x⁴ + a₆x³ + a₇x² + a₈x + a₉

The first few lines of the synthetic division are

10 | a₁  a₂  a₃  a₄  a₅  a₆  a₇  a₈  a₉             ( the first row has 9  coefficients)

    -----------------------------------------
      a₁

Answer:
The first row has 9  coefficients.

Answer:

The rate of return is 14%

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of return can be determined by,

RR = \frac{A_{f} - A_{i}  }{A_{i} } x 100%

where:

RR is the rate of return

A_f} is the final amount = $690 -  $6 = $684

A_{i} is the initial amount = $15 x 40 = $ 600

So that,

RR = \frac{684 - 600}{600} x 100%

     = 0.14 x 100%

     = 14%

Therefore, the rate of return is 14%.
