Try to get the fractions with same denominators. Use the LCD system to find equal factors to a common denominator. Then just simply compare it.

*Note: Larger fraction is the greater numerator.*

Answer:3rd choice

Step-by-step explanation:

eliminate choices with a=2+b and o=3+b because those say two more apples than bananas, and 3 more oranges than bananas.

eliminate choice with b=2a because that says twice as many bananas as apples.

Write each of the following expressions without using absolute value: |z−6|−|z−5|, if z<5

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The answer is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression:

$|z-6|-|z-5|,\ if\ z$

To find:

The expression without absolute value.

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about the absolute value function:

$y = f(x) = |x| =\left \{ {{x\ if\ x>0} \atop {-x\ if\ x$

i.e. value is x if x is positive

value is -x if x is negative

Here the given expression contains two absolute value functions:

$|z-6|$ and $|z-5|$

Using the definition of absolute value function as per above definition.

$|z-5| =\left \{ {{(z-5)\ if\ z>5} \atop {-(z-5)\ if\ z$

$|z-6| =\left \{ {{(z-6)\ if\ z>6} \atop {-(z-6)\ if\ z$

Now, it is given that z < 5 that means z will also be lesser than 6 i.e. z < 6

So, given expression $|z-6|-|z-5|,\ if\ z$ will be equivalent to :

$-(z-6) - (-(z-5))\\\Rightarrow -z+6 +z-5 = \bold{1}$

So, the expression is equivalent to 1.

Given that angle a = 54° and angle b = 48°, work out x.

Arisa [49]

If it’s a triangle then it has to equal 180
so 48+54+x=180
48+54=102
180-102=x

x=78

Answer:

B) 24 p-35

Step-by-step explanation:

Step :1

Apply distributive property a.(b+c) = a.b+a.c

Given data 1+4(6 p-9)

= 1+4.6 p - 4.9

multiply

= 1+ 24 p - 36

subtracting

= 24 p - 35
