Answer: Yes

Step-by-step explanation: To write the fraction 2/8 in lowest terms, we divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 2 and 8.

Since the factors of 2 are 1 and 2 and the factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8, the greatest common factor of 2 and 8 is 2.

This means that we divide the numerator and the denominator of 2/8 by 2 and we get the equivalent fraction 1/4.

This means that 2/8 can be reduced.

The width of a rectangle is 22 inches and the perimeter is at least 165 inches. what inequality could be used to find the minimu
Lera25 [3.4K]
The answer is D.

We know that a rectangle has two widths that are equal and two lengths that are equal. One width is 22, so the other one is also 22.

If you wanted to find the lengths, you would add both widths together (same as multiplying a width by two) and add that to the two lengths equaled to the perimeter.

So, 22 * 2 + 2x = perimeter of rectangle. We added all four sides together.

We know that the perimeter is at least 165, so 22 * 2 + 2x = 165. Here's the twist. They want the most minimum possible length. So, what answer choice gives you 165 or less for the most minimum or smallest length while still getting to 165?
That is D.
22 * 2 + 2x < = 165.
Hope this helped!

Given that f(a+b)= f(a) + f(b) and f(x) is always positive, what os the value of f(0)?
FrozenT [24]
This is a strange question, and f(x) may not even exist. Why do I say that? Well..

[1] We know that f(a+b) = f(a) + f(b). Therefore, f(0+0) = f(0) + f(0). In other words, f(0) = f(0) + f(0). Subtracting, we see, f(0) - f(0) = f(0) or 0 = f(0).

[2] So, what's the problem? We found the answer, f(0) = 0, right? Maybe, but the second rule says that f(x) is always positive. However, f(0) = 0 is not positive!

Since there is a contradiction, we must either conclude that the single value f(0) does not exist, or that the entire function f(x) does not exist.

To fix this, we could instead say that "f(x) is always nonnegative" and then we would be safe.

If you used 3/4 of the blue paint to make flames on one of the cars, and need 7 3/4 pints of blue paint to paint another car, wh
ki77a [65]

3/4 of 7 pints were used. of, in this case, means to multiply. 3/4 x 7= 21/4= 5 and 1/4 pints. Now we subtract 5 and 1/4 (because this is how much was used) from 7. 7- 5 and 1/2 = 1 and 1/2

If you have questions, feel free to ask.

Will someone help me with both of these I have to solve for the unknown portions please
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

b=2.5

p=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the fraction and simplify it. So 10/8 would be 5/4

You multiply the 2 by 2, giving you h/4

So now you have 5/4=h/4

h=5 but now you have to divide both by 2 again so it can go back to the original fraction.

5÷2=2.5 and 4÷2=2

Second Problem! 4/2 is equal to 2/1

You can also multiply 4 by 3 to get the numerator as 12. Multiply the 4 by 3 and the 2 by 3

Now you have 12/6= 12/p

So p is 6
