Before you can add or subtract fractions with different denominators, you must first find equivalent fractions with the same denominator, like this: Find the smallest multiple (LCM) of both numbers. Rewrite the fractions as equivalent fractions with the LCM as the denominator.

A chicken weighs t lbs. It needs to be cooked for 20 minutes per lb plus an extra 15 minutes. What is the total cooking time? Is
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Total cooking time = 20t + 15

The expression 15t + 20 is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

weight of chicken = t lbs

cook time per lb = 20 minutes

This means that:

1 lb weight requires a cooking time of 20 minutes

1 lb = 20 minutes

∴ t lbs = 20 × t = 20t minutes.

We were also told that each chicken required an extra cooking time of 15 minutes, in addition to the total cooking time due to the weight. Therefore, the total cooking time is calculated thus:

Total cooking time = cooking time due to weight + 15 minutes

Total cooking time = 20t + 15

Hence the expression 15t + 20 is wrong, due to the explanation given above.

A complex number z=a+bi had an absolute value of 3.28. What could the values of a and b be ? A.a=1.5,b=1.7 C.a=1.7,b=2.8
Levart [38]
The given complex number is ⇒ z = a + b i
The absolute value of z = √( a² + b² ) = 3.28
So, we will check which of the options will give 3.28

<span>( A) IF ⇒⇒ a=1.5 and b=1.7
</span>
<span>∴ √( a² + b² ) = √( 1.5² + 1.7²) = √5.14 ≈ 2.27
</span>
===================================

<span>(B) IF ⇒⇒ a=1.5 and b=3.3
</span>
<span>∴ √( a² + b² ) = √(1.5² + 3.3²) = √13.14 ≈ 3.62
</span>
====================================

<span>(C) IF ⇒⇒ a=1.7 and b=2.8
</span>
<span>∴ √( a² + b² ) = √(1.7² + 2.8²) = √10.73 ≈ 3.28
</span>
====================================

<span>(D) IF ⇒⇒ a=2.8 and b=3.3
</span>
∴ √( a² + b² ) = √(2.8² + 3.3²) = √18.73 ≈ 4.33
=====================================
So, the correct answer is option (C) <span>a=1.7,b=2.8</span>
