Answer:no

Step-by-step explanation:put the two numbers in the same denominator

The least common denominator of 8 and 12 is 24. So to get 8 to 24 you multiply it by 3. So 3(3/8) is 9/24.

To get 12 to 24 you multiply it by 2. So 2(7/12) is 14/24. 9/24 is less than 14/24.

What is the sum in simplest form? 41 +13 = 1

Alborosie

Answer:

x + y = 41

x - y = 13

------------------

2x = 54..............We divide 2 such that

x = 27

Then we plug 27 into the equation such that

27 + y = 54.................Subtract 27 to get

y = 14

Suppose f is an exponential function and:

Nastasia [14]

Answer: a) $b= p(1 + r)^1$ b) $c= p(1 + r)^n$ c) $d= p(1 + r)^m$ d) $b^n=c$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since f is an exponential function.

So, it is expressed as

$f = p(1 + r)^$

Here f is the present value

p is the initial value

r is the rate of growth per time period

t is the time period.

(a) b represents the 1-unit growth factor for f.

$b= p(1 + r)^1$

(b) c represents the n n-unit growth factor for f.

$c= p(1 + r)^n$

$d= p(1 + r)^m$

Write a formula that expresses c in terms of b.

Since

$b=p(1+r)^1\\\\So,\\\\b=p(1+r)^{n\times \frac{1}{n}}\\\\b=(p(1+r)^n)^{\frac{1}{n}}\\\\b=c^{\frac{1}{n}}\\\\b^n=c$

Hence, a) $b= p(1 + r)^1$ b) $c= p(1 + r)^n$ c) $d= p(1 + r)^m$ d) $b^n=c$

If BE is parallel to CD, the. The value of x is: A. 10 B. 6 C. 9

sveta [45]

Corresponding sides have the same ratio, so
x/15 = 12/(12+8) = 3/5
x = 15*3/5
x = 9
