\frac{9}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

you would want to get rid of the -1/2 so you have to add one half to the other side of the equation and since 1/2 equals 4/8 the equation would be

4/8 plus 5/8 which equals 9/8

A and B are postive integers such that 1/a + 1/b +1/ab = 1. Find ab
Kitty [74]

Answer: ab =6

have:

\frac{1}{a}+\frac{1}{b}+\frac{1}{ab}=1\\\\=>\frac{b}{ab}+\frac{a}{ab}+\frac{1}{ab}=1\\\\\frac{a+b+1}{ab}=1

=> a + b + 1 = ab

⇔ a + b + 1 - ab = 0

⇔ b - 1 - a(b - 1) + 2 = 0

⇔ (b - 1)(1 - a) = -2

because a and b are postive integers => (b - 1) and (1 - a) also are integers

=> (b - 1) ∈ {-1; 1; 2; -2;}

(1 -a) ∈  {-1; 1; 2; -2;}

because (b -1).(1-a) = -2 => we have the table:

b - 1        -1             1              2             -2

1 - a         2            -2            -1              1

a              -1            3             2              0

b              0            2             3              -1

a.b            0           6             6               0

because a and b  are postive integers

=> (a;b) = (3;2) or (a;b) = (2;3)

=> ab = 6

A fence completely surrounds a pool,that is 30 feet by 10 feet.what is the approximate length,in feet,of the fence
tamaranim1 [39]
Because the fence's dimensions is 30 feet by 10 feet, you can assume that one side of the pool is 30 feet while the other, non-congruent side, is 10 feet. The formula for perimeter, which you are trying to find,  is 2L+2W=P. In this problem, 30 will be your L and 10 will be your W. Therefore, 2(30) +2(10)=80.

So 80 feet will be your answer.
