Answer:

5/8 - 5/12 = (5×3/8×3)-(5×2/12×2)15-10/24 = 5/24

Step-by-step explanation:

first find out the LCM ( Lowest Common Multiple ) of the denominators ( here:24 ) and multiply the denominator and numerator , both with the required no. to make the denominator as equal as the LCM [( 5×3/8×3 ) - ( 5×2/12×2)] and subtract / add the numerators. the answer you get is the correct answer.

hope that is helpful for your future.

The nth term of a sequence is represented by 3n4−10/6n4+7 . What is the limit of the the nth term as n becomes increasingly larg

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the limit of the function expressed as;

$\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{3n^4-10}{6n^4+7} \\$

To take the limit, we nee to divide through by the highest power of n first

$\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{3n^4/n^4-10/n^2}{6n^4/n^4+7/n^4}\\= \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{3-10/n^2}{6+7/n^4}\\= \frac{3-10/(\infty)^2}{6+7/(\infty)^4}\\= \frac{3-0}{6-0}\\= \frac{3}{6}\\ = \frac{1}{2}\\$

Hence the limit of the the nth term as n becomes increasingly large is 1/2

Write the roman numeral of the Olympics Games that follow the 28th games

bogdanovich [222]

The Olympics Games that follow the 28th games will be "XXIX Games."

The Olympic Games that follow the 28th Olympic games is the 29th Olympic Games.

29 in Roman numerals is:

= XXVIII

An X in Roman numerals is 10 so the first two Xs are to signify "20."

An "IX" in Roman numerals is "9" which will then take the number to 29.

It will therefore be the "XXIX Olympic Games."

In conclusion, the number 29 is XXIX in Roman numerals so Olympic Games after the 28th games will be "XXIX Games."

Answer:

Ainsworth (1970) identified three main attachment styles, secure (type B), insecure avoidant (type A) and insecure ambivalent/resistant (type C).

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, Schaffer and Emerson suggested that attachments develop in four stages: asocial stage or pre-attachment (first few weeks), indiscriminate attachment (approximately 6 weeks to 7 months), specific attachment or discriminate attachment (approximately 7-9 months) and multiple attachment (approximately 10

A rectangular rug has a perimeter of 20 feet. The length of the rug is 6 feet. What is the width of the rug in inches?

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

48 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the rug is 6 feet. We know this must account for 2 sides of the rug, so let's multiply 6 by 2.

6 × 2 = 12

Now subtract 12 from 20.

20 - 12 = 8

Now divide 8 by 2 to find the measurement of the remaining two sides.

8 ÷ 2 = 4.

The width of the rug is 4 feet. The question wants to find the width in inches, however. So multiply 4 by 12 because there are 12 inches in each foot.

4 × 12 = 48

The width of the rug is 48 inches.

solve this problem by using a 5d process or writing and solving an equation. No matter which method you use, be sure to define y

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

width of the rectangle=x=4in and length of the rectangle=11in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be x, then according to the question, length is one less than three times its width that is l=3x-1.

Now, width=b=x and length=l=3x-1, thus

Perimeter of the rectangle= 2(l+b)
