Answer:

each number in the ratio 4:5:7 is worth 6 sweets. add 4,5, and 7 to get 16 then multiply it by 6 to get 96 sweets.

Step-by-step explanation:

add the ratios = 4+5+7= 16

1 number = 6 so

4x6= 24

5x6=30

7x6=42

Frank gets 24 sweets

Mary gets 30 sweets

Seth gets 42 sweets

The total number of sweets they shared is 24+30+42= 96

The share 96 sweets altogether.

The check your answer; do 42-24= 18

Therefore, now we know that the difference between Seth and Frank's amount of sweets is 18.

Therefore, this is correct.

Find two rational expressions a / b and c / d that produce the result x − 1 / x2 when using the following operations. Answers

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

a) Let $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{-1}{x^2}, \text{ and } \frac{c}{d}=\frac{1}{x}$ .

Observe that

$\frac{a}{b}+\frac{c}{d}=\frac{-1}{x^2}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{-x+x^2}{x^3}=\frac{x(x-1)}{xx^2}=\frac{x-1}{x^2}$

Let $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{1}{x}, \text{ and } \frac{c}{d}=\frac{1}{x^2}.$

Observe that

$\frac{a}{b}-\frac{c}{d}=\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{x^2}=\frac{x^2-x}{x^3}=\frac{x(x-1)}{xx^2}=\frac{x-1}{x^2}$

Let $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{x-1}{x}, \text{ and } \frac{c}{d}=\frac{1}{x}.$

Observe that

$\frac{a}{b}*\frac{c}{d}=\frac{x-1}{x}*\frac{1}{x}=\frac{(x-1)1}{x*x}=\frac{x-1}{x^2}$

Let $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{x-1}{x}, \text{ and } \frac{c}{d}=\frac{x}{1}.$

Observe that

$\frac{a}{b}\div\frac{c}{d}=\frac{x-1}{x}\div\frac{x}{1}=\frac{x-1}{x}*\frac{1}{x}=\frac{x-1}{x^2}$
