Step-by-step explanation:
4/9 is in lowest terms because it does not have any other common factor , other than 1 so it can't be reduced more .
A. True
Answer: 3 1/6
Explanation:
1. divide the numerator by the denominator
2. write down the whole number result
3. use the remainder as the new numerator
Answer:
- dimensions: 12 ft by 5 ft
- area: 60 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the shorter dimension in feet. Then the longer one is x+7 and the Pythagorean theorem tells us the relation of these to the diagonal is ...
x² + (x+7)² = 13²
2x² +14x + 49 = 169 . . . . eliminate parentheses
x² +7x -60 = 0 . . . . . subtract 169 and divide by 2
(x +12)(x -5) = 0 . . . . factor the equation
x = -12 or +5 . . . . . . . only the positive value of x is useful here.
The short dimension is 5 ft, so the long dimension is 12 ft. The area is their product, 60 ft².

<em>Comment on finding the area</em>
The quadratic equation above can be rearranged and factored as ...
x(x +7) = 60
Since the dimensions of the garden are x and (x+7), this product is the garden's area. This equation tells us the area is 60. We don't actually have to find the dimensions.
Let the number of cards Aaron has : A
Given :
⊕ Bonny has twice as many cards as Aaron
⊕ Connor has 6 cards more than Bonny
⊕ Total cards : 101
⇒ Number of cards Bonny has : 2A
⇒ Number of cards Connor has : 2A + 6
⇒ Aaron cards + Bonny cards + Connor cards = 101
⇒ A + 2A + 2A + 6 = 101
⇒ 5A = 101 - 6
⇒ 5A = 95
⇒ A = 19
<u>Answer</u> : Aaron has 19 Cards
