What fraction of the students in the class named baseball their favorite sport

Mathematics
1 answer:
mojhsa [17]3 years ago
4 0

now, let's take a peek at the denominators, we have 3 and 8 and 12, we can get an LCD of 24 from that.

Let's multiply both sides by the LCD of 24, to do away with the denominators.

so, let's recall that a whole is "1", namely 500/500 = 1 = whole, or 5/5 = 1 = whole or 24/24 = 1 = whole.  So the whole class will yield a fraction of 1/1 or just 1.

\bf ~\hspace{7em}\stackrel{\textit{basketball}}{\cfrac{1}{3}}+\stackrel{\textit{soccer}}{\cfrac{1}{8}}+\stackrel{\textit{football}}{\cfrac{5}{12}}+\stackrel{\textit{baseball}}{x}~=~\stackrel{\textit{whole}}{1} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{24}}{24\left(\cfrac{1}{3}+\cfrac{1}{8}+\cfrac{5}{12}+x \right)=24(1)}\implies (8)1+(3)1+(2)5+(24)x=24 \\\\\\ 8+3+10+24x=24\implies 21+24x=24\implies 24x=3 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{3}{24}\implies x=\cfrac{1}{8}

If anyone knows this I will give them brainiest
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

x = 12

m(QS) = 52°

m(PD) = 152°

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: Angle formed by two secants outside a circle = ½(the difference of the intercepted arcs)

Thus:

m<R = ½[m(PD) - m(QS)]

50° = ½[(12x + 8) - (4x + 4)] => substitution

Solve for x

Multiply both sides by 2

2*50 = (12x + 8) - (4x + 4)

100 = (12x + 8) - (4x + 4)

100 = 12x + 8 - 4x - 4 (distributive property)

Add like terms

100 = 8x + 4

100 - 4 = 8x

96 = 8x

96/8 = x

12 = x

x = 12

✔️m(QS) = 4x + 4 = 4(12) + 4 = 52°

✔️m(PD) = 12x + 8 = 12(12) + 8 = 152°

A square has an area of 81 yd^2. what is the length of each side
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

9 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

A square has 4 equal sides, this means the 2 sides we will multiply to get the area are going to be the same. Since it says 81 yards squared and the shape is a square, we can do the square root of 81 which is 9.
