Multiply 5/8 by 64
=40

1:4 means a fourth of them
so basically 10 out of 40

now just subtract 10 from 40 to get the amount of classical players

10 jazz & 30 classical

What is the numerator of the simplified sum?
sashaice [31]

Answer:

4x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x}{x² + 3x + 2} + \frac{3}{x + 1}

To determine what the numerator would be, after simplifying both fractions, take the following steps:

Step 1: Factorise the denominator of the first fraction, x² + 3x + 2.

Thus,

x² + 2x + x + 2

(x² + 2x) + (x + 2)

x(x + 2) +1(x + 2)

(x + 1)(x + 2)

We would now have the following as our new fractions to add together and simplify:

\frac{x}{(x + 1)(x + 2)} + \frac{3}{x + 1}

Step 2: find the highest common factor of the denominator of both fractions.

Highest common factor of (x + 1)(x + 2) and (x + 1) = (x + 1)(x + 2)

Step 3: To add both fractions, divide the highest common factor gotten in step 2 by each denominator, and then multiply the result by the numerator of each fraction.

Thus,

\frac{x}{(x + 1)(x + 2)} + \frac{3}{x + 1}

\frac{x + 3(x + 2)}{(x + 1)(x + 2)}

\frac{x + 3x + 6)}{(x + 1)(x + 2)}

\frac{4x + 6)}{(x + 1)(x + 2)}

Therefore, the numerator of the simplified form sum of both fractions = 4x + 6

Please Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary).
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

10.29 u

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given :- </u>

  • Two points (7,4) and (-2,9) is given to us.

And we need to find out the distance between the two points . So , here we can use the distance formula to find out the distance. As,

:\implies D = √{(x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²}

:\implies D =√[ (7+2)² +(9-4)²]

:\implies D =√[ 9² +5²]

:\implies D =√[ 81 +25]

:\implies D = 10.29

<h3>Hence the distance between the two points is 10.29 units .</h3>

sleet_krkn [62]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry is the vertical line through the vertex. The vertex is the turning point, or minimum, of the function. It is (x, y) = (-4, 0). The x-coordinate there is -4, so the equation of the axis of symmetry is ...
