Let's look at an example.
We'll add the fractions 1/6 and 1/8
Before we can add, the denominators must be the same.
To get the denominators to be the same, we can...
- multiply top and bottom of 1/6 by 8 to get 8/48
- multiply top and bottom of 1/8 by 6 to get 6/48
At this point, both fractions involve the denominator 48. We can add the fractions like so
8/48 + 6/48 = (8+6)/48 = 14/48
Add the numerators while keeping the denominator the same the entire time.
The last step is to reduce if possible. In this case, we can reduce. This is because 14 and 48 have the factor 2 in common. Divide each part by 2.
The fraction 14/48 reduces to 7/24
Overall, 1/6 + 1/8 = 7/24
Based on the number of songs in each genre that Josiah listened to, the statements about his solution that are true are:
- He should have found the average of the number of rock songs by averaging 4 and 6 to get 5.
- He did not multiply the numerator and denominator by the correct number to equal 1,500.
- He should have multiplied the numerator and denominator by 75, not 30, because 20 times 75 = 1,500.
<h3>What did Josiah do wrong?</h3>
To find the average of the number of rock songs, he should have taken the average of rock songs he listened to which were 4 and 6:
= (4 + 6) / 2
= 5
Because he has a total of 1,500 songs on his player, he should have multiplied both the numerator and denominator by a number that would lead to 1,500 which is 75 and not 30.

The product would expand to

This is a trinomial, and the only way to make it a binomial is to cancel out a coefficient using our variable
.
So, we can cancel either the linear term or the constant term.
In the first case, we require

In the second case, we require

But
must be a non-zero rational number, so this solution is not feasible.
First term is -7, so a_1 = -7
To get the next term, we add on 4. We can see this if we subtract like so
d = (2nd term) - (1st term) = (-3) - (-7) = -3+7 = 4
So d = 4 is the common difference.
Apply a_1 = -7 and d = 4 to get...
a_n = a_1 + d*(n-1)
a_n = -7 + 4*(n-1)
a_n = -7 + (n-1)*4
Answer: Choice A
Answer:
10 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the total number of hours
Amazing design total charge = 45x+250
super structures total charge = 60x+100
both companies charge the same amount when both equation equals
45x+250=60x+100
60x-45x=250-100
15x=150
x=10
therefore at 10 hours both companies will charge the same amount
