3/4−2/5=7/20

Solution with Steps

3/4−2/5=?

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

LCD(3/4, 2/5) = 20

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

(3/4×5/5)−(2/5×4/4)=?

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

15/20−8/20=?

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can subtract the numerators.

Then:

15−8/20=7/20

This fraction cannot be reduced.

Therefore:

3/4−2/5=7/20

Solution by Formulas

Apply the fractions formula for subtraction, to

3/4−2/5

and solve

(3×5)−(2×4)/4×5

=15−8/20

=7/20

Therefore:

3/4−2/5=7/20

If AD = 5x + 3, TD = x + 27, what is AD?
Eddi Din [679]

The question is incomplete, but if we assume that you mean AD = TD , we have :

AD = TD ===》 5x + 3 = x + 27

===》 4x = 24

===》 x = 6

_________________________________

AD = 5 × ( 6 ) + 3

AD = 30 + 3

AD = 33

PLEASE HELP ME I WILL GIVE YOU POINTS
patriot [66]
The answer would be C because the y-intercept tells you what y when x is 0. In this case, y is wage and x is years of experience. So, if you have 0 years of experience you get an average of 7.25 dollars per hour, which is C.

Can someone help me with functions?
just olya [345]
Yes, the graph is a function and it does pass the vertical line test because when you hold a ruler up to it, you can see that the graph only hits one point at a time.(im not so sure about this, im sorry :/ )

Yes, your range is 2, since that is your y-intercept.

And your other answer choices are incorrect.
