Solve the Equation p+5/8=15/16?

Mathematics

Sphinxa [80]4 years ago
6 0
So the first thing you want to do when faced with two fractions with different denominators (when subtracting or adding) is to make the denominators the same. So for this equation they would turn out to be p+10/16=15/16 (because 16 is the lowest common denominator, 8 times two) so then you want to subtract 10/16 from 15/16 to isolate the variable (p) which would get: 
p=5/16
This is the final answer because it cannot be simplified.
Hope this helps!

Which phrase best describes the translation from the graph y = (x + 2)2 to the graph of y = x2 + 3?
Mashutka [201]

1. Consider the transformation that maps the graph of the function y=(x+2)^2 into the graph of the function y=x^2. This transmormation has a rule:

(x,y)→(x+2,y)

that is translation 2 units to the right.

2. Consider the transformation that maps the graph of the function y=x^2 into the graph of the function y=x^2+3. This transformation has a rule:

(x,y)→(x,y+3)

that is translation 3 units up.

Answer: correct choice is C.

The standard form of the equation of a parabola is y = x2 - 8x + 29. What is the vertex form of the equation?
Bess [88]
Y = x² - 8x + 29
y = (x² -8x +4²) + 29 -4² . . . . add and subtract the square of half the x-coefficient
y = (x -4)² + 13 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

The appropriate choice is
  C. y = (x - 4)² + 13
