Putting the same common denominator would be 30. & the numerator for 1/6 would be 5, while the numerator for 3/5 would be 18. & if you subtract 5-18 you can't really do that so just switch it up (18-5) & you'd get -13 & the common denominator is 30, so in that case -13/30

Find values of a and b that make the statement |a+b|= |a|+|b| false.
jok3333 [9.3K]

The values that make this statement falser are any in which a and b do not have the same sign.

For instance, if a was equal to 3 and b was equal to -3 than see the results.

|a+b|=

|3+-3|=

|0|= 0

Then see the next equation with the same selections

|a|+|b|

|3|+|-3|

3 + 3 = 6

And this would be true no matter which is the negative, as long as there is one negative and one positive.

Five pounds of birdseed is used to fill 4 identical bird feeders.
enyata [817]

Answer:

a. We need 1/4 for each feeder  

b. To fill each feeder we need 1.25 pounds

c.  We need 60 ounces to fill three bird feeders

Step-by-step explanation:

Five pounds of birdseed is used to fill 4 identical bird feeders,  

a. We divide all the birdseed in 4 feeders, so,  we need 1/4 for each feeder.

b. If we use 5 pounds for the 4 feeders,  so each feeders will take 1/4 of the 5 pounds

=1/4 x 5=1.25 pounds

c. To fill three bird feeders we have to multiply the amount of pounds by feeder by 3 feeders

=1.25 pounds x 3

= 3,75 pounds

If 16 ounces are a pound

so,  16 x 3.75 = 60 ounces

Find the approximate surface-area-to-volume ratio of a bowling ball with a radius of 5 inches.
Nataly_w [17]
Surface area of a ball: 
S=4πr^2=4*π*5^2=100π

Volume of a circle:
V=4/3*π*r^3=4/3*π*125=(500/3)*π=165π

The approximate surface-area-to-volume ratio would be 1:1,5
