The simplified form of the expression is 3b+2a/(ab)²
<h3>Sum of fractions</h3>
Fractions are written as a ratio of two integers. Given the expression below;
3/a^2b + 2/ab^2
Find the LCM
3/a^2b + 2/ab^2 = 3b+2a/a²b²
3/a^2b + 2/ab^2 = 3b+2a/(ab)²
Hence the simplified form of the expression is 3b+2a/(ab)²

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Jack 40/11 = 3.64 bushels per hour
Jill 40/9 = 4.44 bushels per hour
together they pick 3.64 + 4.44 = 8.08 bushels per hour
40/8.08 = 4.95 hours
Answer: 1,953,125
This is one single value and it is just a bit under 2 million.
Or more accurately, it's a bit over 1.9 million.
===========================================================
Explanation:
- a = 5 = first term
- r = -5 = common ratio
Note that dividing any term by its previous term gets us the common ratio
- r = term2/term1 = -25/5 = -5
- r = term3/term2 = 125/(-5) = -5
The r value must stay the same the entire time, or else the sequence isn't geometric.
The nth term of any geometric sequence is a*(r)^(n-1). With the 'a' and 'r' values we found, we update that to 5(-5)^(n-1)
-----------------
To verify that is the correct nth term expression, plug in various values of n to compare it with the given sequence.
If we tried n = 2 for instance, then we find the 2nd term is
5(-5)^(n-1) = 5(-5)^(2-1) = -25
which matches what your teacher gave you. I'll let you verify the other terms.
-----------------
The last thing we need to do is plug in n = 9 and simplify
5(-5)^(n-1)
5(-5)^(9-1)
5(-5)^8
5(390625)
1,953,125 this is one single value (rather than 3 separate values)
The answer would be the third option , because
