The least common denominator of 10 and 15 is 30. It's easiest to use trial and error to find the LCD. In this case, just multiply both numbers by 2 and see if that works. Since 15 doesn't go into 20, I tried multiplying 15 by 2  instead, and got 30, which is divisible by 2. If that doesn't work, move on to multiplying them by 3, then 4 four, and so on. However, in this case, it did work, so, since you multiplied 15 by two to get 30, multiply 7 by two to get the fraction 14/30. Then, since you multiplied 10 by 3 to get 30, multiply 2 by 3 to get 6/30. Then, add the two together to get 20/30 and simplify the fraction to 2/3. 

2/10 + 7/15   Given.
6/30 + 14/30   LCD.
20/30   Add.
2/3   Simplify.

Answer:   (C) 13,120

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given the sequence {4, 12, 36, 108, ... , 8748} we know that the first term (a) is 4 and the ratio (r) is \dfrac{12}{4}=3

Input the values above into the Sum formula:

S_n=\dfrac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}\\\\S_8=\dfrac{4(1-3^8)}{1-3}\\\\.\quad=\dfrac{4(1-6561)}{-2}\\\\.\quad=\dfrac{4(-6560)}{-2}\\\\.\quad=-2(-6560)\\\\.\quad=13,120

The figure shows a line graph and two shaded triangles that are similar:

True:

3rd One

4th One

False: All of the others.

It's a straight line, so it is going to have straight qualities and straight inequalities throughout the graph.

why write a quadratic function whose graph has the given characteristics vertex :(2,3) point on graph (0,-1)
GaryK [48]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

f(x) = -(x -2)² +3

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

We can fill in the vertex (h, k) values immediately in the vertex form ...

... f(x) = a(x -h)² +k

To find the value of a, we solve the equation for a at some point other than the vertex. The given point is (0, -1), so we can use that:

... -1 = a(0 -2)² +3

... -4 = 4a . . . . . . . . . subtract 3, simplify

... -1 = a . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

Now, we know the function is ...

... f(x) = -(x -2)² +3
