You have to subtract 5/4 by 2/3 but in order to do that you must find a common denominator or least common multiple so the least common denominator of 4 and 3 is 12 so you have to multiply 4 by 3 and three by 4 to make both denominators 12 but you have to do the same thing on the top as you did the bottom so:
5/4*3= 15/12 and 2/3*4=8/12
Then 15/12-8/12 is 7/12 so Jim has to run 7/12 more
Answer:
They have the same x-value
f(x) has the greater minimum
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the vertex of a second degree equation, in this case the minimum value, we can use the following equation:
x = -b / 2a
Remember that a second degree equation has the following form:
ax^2 + bx + c
so a = 1, b = -8 and c = 7. Now you have to substitute in the previous equation
x = - (-8) / 2(1)
x = 8 / 2
x = 4
This means that the two functions have the same x-value.
The y value of f(x) would be
f(4) = (4)^2 - 8(4) + 7
f(4) = 16 - 32 + 7
f(4) = -9
So the vertex, or minimun value of f(x) would be at the point (4, -9).
The vertex, or minimun value of g(x) is at the point (4, -4).
So f(x) has a minimum value of -9 and g(x) a minimum value of -4.

because if you do the math its easy
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 3x+8 is not equal to 3x-5
3x cancel out for both side and +8 is not equal to -5
