You would make all the fractions have the same common denominator of 12. First you would keep the fraction 7/12 because the denominator is already 12. Next you would take the fraction 1/3 and multiply it by 4/4 and the new fraction for 1/3 becomes 4/12. Lastly you would take 2/3 and multiply that by 4/4 and the fraction becomes 8/12. Now you can compare the fractions with the same denominator. Therefore 7/12 is greater than 1/3 but less than 2/3

What is the solution to ther equation 2(x-4)squared=50
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

x=9                   x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-4)^2=50

Divide each side by 2

2/2(x-4)^2=50/2

(x-4)^2=25

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x-4)^2)=sqrt(25)

x-4 = ±5

x-4 =5            x-4 = -5

Add 4 to each side

x-4+4=5+4    x-4+4 = -5+4

the average length of string a and string d is 10x cm . the average length of string b and string c is 8x cm . the average lengt
klasskru [66]

Answer:

a= 18x

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+d)/2 = 10x   (1)

(b +c)/2 = 8x  (2)

(b+c+d)/3 = 6x (3)

From the equation 2, we have (b+c)= 8x *2 = 16x

From the equation 3, we have d= 6x*3 - (b+c)= 18x- 16x = 2x

From the equation 1, we have a= 10x*2 -d= 20x - 2x= 18x

A triangular parking lot has two sides that are the same length and the third side is 5 m longer. If the perimeter is 71 m, find
Scilla [17]

Answer:

The equation can be expressed as;

x+y=71 where,

Lengths of two equal sides=x=22 m

Lengths of longer side=y=27 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The total perimeter can be expressed as;

Total perimeter=Total length of the equal sides+total length of the longer side

where;

Total perimeter=71 m

Total length of each of the equal sides=x m

Total length of longer side=y=(x+5) m

replacing;

x+y=71...equation 1

71=(2×x)+(x+5)

2 x+x=71-5

3 x=66

x=66/3

x=22 m

y=x+5=22+5=27 m

Lengths of two equal sides=22 m

Lengths of longer side=27 m

Equation;

x+y=71
