Answer: 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

4/9 and 11/18

Solve:

STEP ONE: Make the denominators equal by determining the LCM

LCM = Least Common Multiple

First Five multiples of 9 = 9, 18, 27, 36, 45

First FIve multiples of 18 = 18, 36, 54, 72, 90

As we can see from the list above, both 18 and 36 overlap, however, 18 is less than 36. Therefore, 18 is the LCM.

STEP TWO: Compare the size and determine the greater one.

4/9 = (4 × 2) / (9 × 2) = 8/18

11/18 = 11/18

Since 11 > 8, therefore, 11/18 is greater than 8/18

STEP THREE: Find the difference between the two fractions.

11/18 - 4/9

=11/18 - 8/18

=(11 - 8) / 18

= 3 / 18

= 1/6

Hope this helps!! :)

2,3,5,9,17 what’s the pattern?

The pattern is multiply by 2 then subtract 1

2 x 2 - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

3 x 2 - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5

5 x 2 - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9

9 x 2 - 1 = 18 - 1 = 17

17 x 2 - 1 = 34 - 1 = 33

33 x 2 - 1 = 66 - 1 = 65

65 x 2 - 1 = 130 - 1 = 129

Use the elimination to solve this equation. 2x+3y=55 9x+4y=105

seropon [69]

X=5 y=15 (5,15).
This is how you do it:
-4(2x+3y=55): -8x-12y=-220
3(9x+4y=105):27x+12y=315

You add the two new equations together, canceling out the y values, and get the x value. Then, you go back and plug in the x value in the original equation to get the y value.

5x(6x+28)=-23 Help I don't understand

aksik [14]

Answer:

Solve the equation for x by finding a, b, and c of the quadratic then applying the quadratic formula.

Exact Form:

x = − 70 ± √4210/30

Decimal Form:

x = −0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

5x(6x+28)=−23

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

30x2+140x=−23

Step 2: Subtract -23 from both sides.

30x2+140x−(−23)=−23−(−23)

30x2+140x+23=0

Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=30, b=140, c=23.

x=−b±√b2−4ac/2a

x=−(140)±√(140)2−4(30)(23)/2(30)

x=−140±√16840/60

x=−7/3+1/30√4210 or x=−7/3+−1/30√4210
