Answer:
7 1/15
Step-by-step explanation:
3 2/5 + 3 4/6 = 7 1/15
Answer:
the answer is 10n-13
Step-by-step explanation:
this is a one step problem, all you need to do is add all the like terms together such as n and 9n and since they are both positives they add up to 10n and then with -10 and -3 they would add together to make -13. thats all there is to it, the answer is 10n-13
Answer:
10 and 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'x' and 'y' are the numbers we need to find.
x + y = 25 (two numbers whose sum is 25)
(1/x) + (1/y) = 1/6 (the sum of whose reciprocals is 1/6)
The solutions of the this system of equations are the numbers we need to find.
x = 25 - y
1/(25 - y) + 1/y = 1/6 multiply both sides by 6(25-y)y
6y + 6(25-y) = (25-y)y
6y + 150 - 6y = 25y - (y^2)
y^2 - 25y + 150 = 0 quadratic equation has 2 solutions
y1 = 15
y2 = 10
Thus we have
:
First solution: for y = 15, x = 25 - 15 = 10
Second solution: for y = 10, x = 25 - 10 = 15
The first and the second solution are in fact the same one solution we are looking for: the two numbers are 10 and 15 (since the combination 10 and 15 is the same as 15 and 10).
Two negatives <em>do not </em>equal a positive when adding. If you're in debt and you add more debt, does that get you out of debt?
Two negatives <em>do </em>equal a positive when you're multiplying them together though. This makes sense if you imagine multiplication as squishing or stretching a particular number on the number line. For example, imagine multiplying 2 x 1/2 as <em>squishing </em>the number 2 two times closer to 0. When you multiply 2 by a negative number, say, -1, you squish it so far down that you <em>flip it to the negative side of the number line</em>, bringing it to -2. You can imagine a similar thing happening if you multiply a number like -4 by -2. You squish -4 down to zero, and then <em>flip it to the positive side</em> and stretch it by a factor of 2, bringing it to 8.
A) if they were the same function, they would have identical graphs ⇒ it's not A
B) it's flipped vertically, but it's not moved ⇒it's not B
C) it's flipped vertically, not horizontally ⇒ it's not C
So it must be D)
