Answer:

D = 49/40

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for D:

D - 3/5 = 5/8

Put each term in D - 3/5 over the common denominator 5: D - 3/5 = (5 D)/5 - 3/5:

(5 D)/5 - 3/5 = 5/8

(5 D)/5 - 3/5 = (5 D - 3)/5:

(5 D - 3)/5 = 5/8

Multiply both sides of (5 D - 3)/5 = 5/8 by 5:

(5 (5 D - 3))/5 = 5×5/8

5×5/8 = (5×5)/8:

(5 (5 D - 3))/5 = (5×5)/8

(5 (5 D - 3))/5 = 5/5×(5 D - 3) = 5 D - 3:

5 D - 3 = (5×5)/8

5×5 = 25:

5 D - 3 = 25/8

Add 3 to both sides:

5 D + (3 - 3) = 25/8 + 3

3 - 3 = 0:

5 D = 25/8 + 3

Put 25/8 + 3 over the common denominator 8. 25/8 + 3 = 25/8 + (8×3)/8:

5 D = 25/8 + (8×3)/8

8×3 = 24:

5 D = 25/8 + 24/8

25/8 + 24/8 = (25 + 24)/8:

5 D = (25 + 24)/8

25 + 24 = 49:

5 D = 49/8

Divide both sides by 5:

D = (49/5)/8

8×5 = 40:

Answer: D = 49/40

Again, a^2+b^2=c^2

c=10

b=9

10 squared is 100

9 squared is 81

100-81=19

The square root of 19, rounded to the nearest hundredth, is 4.36

Jason wants to add a fence to his yard to make it the shape of a rectangle. What is the measure of angle MKJ in the portion of t
alex41 [277]

Answer:

\angle MKJ  = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\angle LKJ = 124

Required

Find \angle MKJ

From the attachment:

The measure of \angle MKJ is calculated using the following expression:

\angle MKJ  + \angle LKM = \angle LKJ

Where

\angle LKM = 90 -- right-angled.

The expression becomes

\angle MKJ  + 90 = 124

\angle MKJ  = 124 - 90

\angle MKJ  = 34

I cannot figure this question out
uysha [10]

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to make sure that they have a common denominator before doing anything.

Find the lowest common multiple (lcm), which would be 12 (3 x 4 = 12)

So then, put 12 as both denominators, and subtract.

7/12 - 9/12 is equal to 28/12 - 27/12, because 3 miltiplied by 4 equals 12, therefore you mutiply the 7 by the 4, and 4 miltiplied by 3 equals 12, therefore you multiply the 9 by the 3.


Sorry if this is confusing, i tried explaining as best i could! Hope this helped!
