Let's say you had a cake that is cut into 5 equal slices. Then someone eats 2 of those slices. They ate 2/5 of the cake.
Now let's say you have another cake that you cut into 10 equal slices. If someone eats 4 of those ten, then they have eaten 4/10 = 2/5 of the cake.
Check out the diagram below to see a visual of how 4/10 and 2/5 are equivalent fractions.
Going from 2/5 to 4/10 has us multiply top and bottom by 2.
-----------
Similarly, 1/2 = 5/10 after multiplying top and bottom by 10
The original expression 2/5 + 1/2 turns into 4/10 + 5/10
Then you add the numerators to get 4+5 = 9, placing that over the common denominator of 10
<h3>Answer: 9/10</h3>
Solve the parenthesis firt.
17-9 = 8
3*2 = 6 now multiply 6 by 8 that equals 48
now divide 48 by 2
48÷2= 24
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponents are too far apart for a +2 to make a difference.
<u>Given</u>:
The sides of the base of the triangle are 8, 15 and 17.
The height of the prism is 15 units.
We need to determine the volume of the right triangular prism.
<u>Area of the base of the triangle:</u>
The area of the base of the triangle can be determined using the Heron's formula.
Substituting a = 8, b = 15 and c = 17. Thus, we have;
Using Heron's formula, we have;
Thus, the area of the base of the right triangular prism is 36 square units.
<u>Volume of the right triangular prism:</u>
The volume of the right triangular prism can be determined using the formula,
where 
is the area of the base of the prism and h is the height of the prism.
Substituting the values, we have;
Thus, the volume of the right triangular prism is 450 cubic units.
2(4x + 3y). You just factor out the two
