If you have the following equation, 2/3x+5/6-x=2-3/4x what would you multiply each term by to get rid of all the fractions
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The answer is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

You would multiply each of them by 12 to get rid of all of the fractions.

This is because 12 is the least common multiple of the denominators. You can find that by lining up their multiples and looking for the one that is the smallest that they have in common.

3: 3, 6, 9. 12. 15

4: 4. 8. 12. 16, 20

6: 6. 12. 18. 24. 30

A rectangle has a length of (3.2a + 0.18b)centimeters.The width is half the length. Sasha writes the expression (12.8a + 0.72b)
jeka94
The width is half the length, so is
  width = (1/2)*length
  width = (1/2)*(<span>3.2a + 0.18b) cm
  width = (1.6a +0.09b) cm

The perimeter of the rectangle is twice the sum of length and width.
  perimeter = 2*(length + width)
  perimeter = 2*((3.2a +0.18b) cm + (1.6a +0.09b) cm)
  perimeter = 2*(4.8a +0.27b) cm)
  perimeter = (9.6a +0.54b) cm

Sasha did not get this answer, so apparently ...
  her reasoning was not correct.</span>

1/3 x 3 is one mile which is then 3/12 hours or 1/4 hours. Now multiply by 4 and you have

\frac{4 \: miles}{per \: hour}

The altitude of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 1 cm/min while the area of the triangle is increasing at a rate of 2 cm^2/
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a triangle is given by:

A = \frac{1}{2}bh   (1)

Where:

b: is the base

h: is the altitude = 10 cm

If we take the derivative of equation (1) as a function of time we have:

\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{db}{dt}h + \frac{dh}{dt}b)

We can find the base by solving equation (1) for b:

b = \frac{2A}{h} = \frac{2*120 cm^{2}}{10 cm} = 24 cm

Now, having that dh/dt = 1 cm/min, dA/dt = 2 cm²/min we can find db/dt:

2 cm^{2}/min = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{db}{dt}*10 cm + 1 cm/min*24 cm)

\frac{db}{dt} = \frac{2*2 cm^{2}/min - 1 cm/min*24 cm}{10 cm} = -2 cm/min    

         

Therefore, the base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.

               

I hope it helps you!
