Suppose you have the fraction 2/d.

<span>Pick </span>any<span> pair of integers a and b where b ≠ 0.</span>
Then 2b-ad is and integer, as is bd so that (2b - ad)/bd is a fraction.

Consider the fractions a/b and (2b - ad)/bd

<span>Their sum is </span>
a/b + (2b-ad)/bd = ad/bd + (2b-ad)/bd = 2b/bd = 2/d - as required.

<span>Since a and b were chosen arbitrarily, there are infinitely many possible answers to the question.</span>

The lateral area of a cone is 400 pi cm squared. The radius is 10 cm. Find the slant height to the nearest tenth.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Option A. 40\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The lateral area of a cone is equal to

LA=\pi rl

we have

LA=400\pi \ cm^{2}

r=10\ cm

substitute and solve for l (slant height)

400\pi=\pi (10)l

simplify

400=(10)l

l=400/10=40\ cm
