To answer this you will combine both fractions together to get a total. The denominators are not the same so you will need to create equivalent fractions for both with a common denominator. The denominator is like the units, and to be able to add them they must be the same.
2/5 + 3/7
2/5 = 14/35 and 3/7 = 15/35
14/35 + 15/35 = 29/35
29/35 of the garden are these 2 flowers.
I must assume that your graph is that of a straight line, and that the end points of the line are P and B, and (finally) that T is between P and B. If these assumptions are correct, then the length of the line segment PB connecting points P and B is 15 + 10, or 25.

Answer:
(x, y) = (77/240, -3/10)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to write the equations in standard form.
Multiplying the first equation by 21 gives ...
21y = 24x -14
Multiplying the second equation by 8 gives ...
24x +9y = 5
Then the system of equations in standard form is ...
Subtracting the first from the second, we get ...
(24x +9y) -(24x -21y) = (5) -(14)
30y = -9
y = -9/30 = -3/10
Substituting this into the second equation, we have ...
24x +9(-3/10) = 5
24x = 7.7 . . . . . . . add 27/10
x = 7.7/24 = 77/240
The solution is (x, y) = (77/240, -3/10).
6% or 0.06 is the simple interest rate the bank pays him.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Sir Ving Spoon earned $5,436 on his $7,550 certificate of deposit.
From this given information,
It can be determined that the Principal amount is $7550 and the interest amount is $5436.
The CD is for 12 years. Therefore, the number of years is 12.
<u>To find the interest rate (r) :</u>
Using the simple interest formula,
Interest = P×r×t
where,
- P is the principal amount = $7550
- r is the rate of interest.
- t is the number of years = 12
⇒ 5436 = 7550 × r × 12
⇒ 5436 = 90600 × r
⇒ r = 5436 / 90600
⇒ r = 0.06
Multiply by 100 to represent in rate %
⇒ r = 0.06 × 100
⇒ r = 6%
∴ 6% or 0.06 is the simple interest rate the bank pays him.
