Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of line u is 9/2; the line perpendicular to that is the opposite reciprocal...opposite sign and the flip of the fraction. The perpendicular slope is -2/9
Answer:
The first prime factor we test is 2:
52 / 2 = 26
26 / 2 = 13
13 is a prime number so the prime factorization is
2 * 2 * 13 = 52
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
23/12 or 1 and 11/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Your first step is that you need to gain a common denomitor. In this scenario, this is 12. To get this, you can either go through the given factors such as 3 having the factors of 6, 9, and 12 and 4 having the factors of 8, and 12.
Another method is the multiply the two given denominators together, but there are certain instances where you shouldn't do that.
Now that you have a common denominator, you need to change the numerators to accomadate the denominators. For 3 to turn into 12, you need to multiply it by 4, thus you have to do the same to the numerator. For 4 to turn into 12, you need to multiply it by 3. This will give you these two new fractions:
8/12 + 15/12
Add the numerators to get 23/12 and then simplify the two numbers to get the mixed number of 1 and 11/12.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x= negitive 6/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok think about it 1/4 plus 1/2 is 3/4
so how do i go to negitives?
you double the amount of it and then minus it
because 3/4- 3/4 would be zero
so you have to double it to get that answer
have a wonderful day filled with only joy!
Answer: the box contained 9 square chocolates and 15 round chocolates.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of square chocolates contained in the box.
Let y represent the number of round chocolates contained in the box.
The box of chocolates contains square chocolates, which weigh 10g each and round chocolates which weigh 8g each. The combined weight of all the chocolates is 210g. It means that
10x + 8y = 210- - - - - - - - - - -1
The number of round chocolates is 3 less than twice the number of square chocolates. It means that
y = 2x - 3
Substituting y = 2x - 3 into equation 1, it becomes
10x + 8(2x - 3) = 210
10x + 16x - 24 = 210
26x = 210 + 24
26x = 234
x = 234/26
x = 9
y = 2x - 3 = 2 × 9 - 3
y = 18 - 3
y = 15
