Answer:

7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the smallest possible denominator between the two fractions. The smallest one is 20.

Now, both denominators need to become 20. To get the 5 in 1/5 to become 20, it needs to be multiplied by 4. Whatever you do to the denominator, you must do to the numerator.

1 x 4 = 4

The first fraction is now 4/20.

To get the 4 in 2/4 to become 20, you must multiply it by 5. Whatever you do to the denominator, you must do to the numerator.

2 x 5 = 10

The second fraction is now 10/20.

Add the fractions. Keep the denominators the same and add the numerators.

4/20 + 10/20 = 14/20

Simplify by dividing both numbers by 2

WXYZ is congruent to PQRS. Find each measure of angle P

REY [17]

P=45

How do I Know that?

I added 35+100 and that equal to 180, so Then I subtracted 180-135 and that gave me 45. So P=35. Add all of them up to see if it = 180 and if it does, then your answer is correct. remeber 3 angles of a triangle =180.

Algebra 1 question 4.

Greetings!

To start this problem, let's first assign a variable for the missing, consecutive odd numbers. Since they are consecutive and odd, we add two.

Proof: 3-1=2, 5-3=2

The first, consecutive, odd number: $x$

The second, consecutive, odd number: $x+2$

The third, consecutive, odd number: $x+4$

The fourth, consecutive, odd number: $x+6$

The sum of the values are equal to 3 times the sum of the first two numbers, of which this is equal to 35 less than the fourth number. Let's create an equation to simplify this:

$3((x)+(x+2))=(x+6)-35$
