If you divide 9/2 you receive 4.5. Tho when you divide 1/3 you get .33333 (repeated), so now you know that both the fractions do not correlate. Now the 'multiples' of 1/3 are 2/ 6, 3/9, 4/12, 5/15, 6/18, 7/21 and so on. If you do the 'multiples' of 2/9 you get 4/18, 6/27. The common factors are 4/18 and 6/18. So know you know that Sandy is using 2/18 (or 1/9) cups more of sugar.

I think the wording of the question is off, since 2/9 is less than 1/3. I think the question meant to say "she increases it by 2/9" thus making this an addition problem.

1/3+2/9
Dind the lcm of 3 and 9 and transform the fractions appropriately:
3/9+2/9
5/9

So Sandy used 5/9 cups of brown sugar.

maw [93]

Answer:

distance driven < 300 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plan A

She needs the car for 3 days.

1 day costs 60 dollars

3 days cost 60*3 = 180 So this is the maximum amount that she can spend

Plan B

She still needs the car for 3 days

1 day costs 20 dollars of the car does not move

3 days costs 3*20 = 60 dollars.

60 + 0.4m < 180                Subtract 60

0.4m < 180 - 60

0.4m < 120                        Divide by 0.4

m < 120/ 0.4

m < 300  

Answer

so she should drive less than 300 miles.

the graph of y=e^tanx-2 crosses the x axis at one point in the interval [0,1]. What is the slope of the graph at this point? I g
Svetlanka [38]
Y = e^tanx   -   2

To find at which point it crosses x axis we state that y= 0

e^tanx   - 2 = 0 
e^tanx = 2
tanx = ln 2
tanx = 0.69314
x = 0.6061

to find slope at that point first we need to find first derivative of funtion y.

y' = (e^tanx)*1/cos^2(x)

now we express x = 0.6061 in y' and we get:
y' = k = 2,9599
