8/10 is an equivalent fraction for 4/5.
Answer:
$12
Step-by-step explanation:
42 - 6 = 36
36/3
12
Answer:
None of these are correct? The correct answer is 34.
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 16 from each side, you get -x=-34
multiply each side by -1, you get x= 34
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What this question is asking of you is what is the greatest common divisor of 12 and 15. Or, what is the biggest number that divides both 12 and 15.
in order to find this we have to split each number into it's prime components.
for 12 they are 2,2 and 3 (
2
⋅
2
⋅
3
=
12
)
and for 15 they are 3 and 5 (
3
⋅
5
=
15
)
Out of those two groups (2,2,3) and (3,5) the only thing in common is 3, so 3 is the greatest common divisor. That tells us that the greatest number of groups that can exist and have the same number of girls and the same number of boys for each group is 3.
Now to find out how many girls and boys there are going to be in each group we divide the totals by 3, so:
12
3
=
4
girls per group, and
15
3
=
5
boys per group.
(just as a thought exercise, if there were 16 boys, the divisors would have been (2,2,3) and (2,2,2,2), leaving us with 4 groups [
2
⋅
2
] of 3 girls [12/4] and 4 boys [16/4] )
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
They wanted to complete the square so they took the thing in front of x and divided by 2 then squared. Whatever you add in, you must take out.
Now we are read to write that one part (the first three terms together) as a square:
I don't see this but what happens if we find a common denominator for those 2 terms after the square. (b/2a)^2=b^2/4a^2 so we need to multiply that one fraction by 4a/4a.
They put it in ( )
I'm going to go ahead and combine those fractions now:
I'm going to factor out a -1 in the second term ( the one in the second ( ) ):
Now I'm going to add (b^2-4ac)/(4a^2) on both sides:
I'm going to square root both sides to rid of the square on the x+b/(2a) part:
Now subtract b/(2a) on both sides:
Combine the fractions (they have the same denominator):
