Explain how you know that 7/12 is greater than 1/3 but less t than 2/3

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

The sum of two numbers is 48.when the smaller number is subtracted from the larger number,the difference is 12. What are the two
Savatey [412]

Answer:

The two numbers are:

30 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b = 48

a - b = 12

From the first eq.

a = 48 - b

Replacing this last value in the second eq.

(48 - b) - b = 12

48 - 2b = 12

48 - 12 = 2b

36 = 2b

36/2 = b

18 = b

from the first eq.

a + 18 = 48

a = 48 - 18

a = 30

Check:

from the second eq.

a - b = 12

30 - 18 = 12

Just do 150 gal over 50 seconds
Or reverse it to 50 sec over 150 gallons

So you get 3 gallons occur each 1 second or the it takes 1/3 of a second for each 1 gallon to flow

For what value of "a" will the product shown below have a purely imaginary value? (Show work please)
MakcuM [25]
If you expand out the brackets you get this,

(4+5i)(a+2i) = 4a + (5a)i + 8i - 10

The -10 comes from 5i * 2i.
Squaring i becomes -1.

Let's group the real stuff together,
and imaginary separately,

(4a - 10) + (5a + 8)i

For this to be purely imaginary,
the real part needs to be zero.

Therefore 4a - 10 = 0

Solve for a.

Solve the following equation algebraically:
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf \ \ \ answer \ b. \ \ +5 \ \ \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

let's assume that we are looking for x >=0

4x^2=100  \dfrac{4x^2}{4}=x^2=\dfrac{100}{4}=25\\\sqrt{x^2}=25\\ |x| = 5  x = 5 \ or \ x=-5

Let's assume that we are looking for x>=0

so the correct answer is 5
