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.

A projectile is fired directly upward. The compound inequality 89 – 9.8t < 10.6 or 89 – 9.8t > 20.4 represents a projectil
Tom [10]

Given compound inequality 89 – 9.8t < 10.6 or 89 – 9.8t > 20.4.

Let us solve them one by one.

89 – 9.8t < 10.6

Subtracting 89 from both sides, we get

89-89 – 9.8t < 10.6 - 89

-9.8t < -78.4

Dividing both sides by -9.8, we get

t > 8.

<em>Note: Inequality sign get flip on dividing both side by a negative number.</em>

89 – 9.8t > 20.4

Subtracting 89 from both sides, we get

89-89 – 9.8t < 20.4 - 89

-9.8 t < - 68.6.

Dividing both sides by -9.8, we get

t < 7

<em>Note: Inequality sign get flip on dividing both side by a negative number.</em>

<h3><em> The solution to the inequality 89 – 9.8t < 10.6 is </em>t > 8. </h3><h3> The solution to the inequality 89 – 9.8t > 20.4 is t < 7.</h3>

When the projectile hits the ground:

89 – 9.8t = 0

Subtracting 89 from both sides, we get

89 - 89 – 9.8t = 0 -89.

-9.8t = -89.

Dividing both sides by 9.8, we get

<h3>to the nearest whole second  t is about 9 seconds.</h3><h3>Therefore, variable solution set is {t < 7, t > 8, t = 9}.</h3><h3 />
