How many different ways can you write a fraction that has a numerator of 2 as a sum of fractions? Explain.

Mathematics

zhenek [66]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 + 1/5 = 2/5

1/7 + 1/7 = 2/7

1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3

There are an infinite number of these fractions. They must be 1 and 1 in the numerator, and the denominator must be relatively prime  to 2. The examples I have picked are prime in the denominator, but the rule is not without many exceptions. For example

1/9 + 1/9 = 2/9

I don't think you can pick an even denominator because it will reduce when put with two.  Oh wait 2/18 + 2/18 = 4/18 = 2/9 But these could be reduced before adding. Still, it might count. It depends on who is marking the question.

What about an odd and even denominator?

1/9 + 1/18 = 3/18 = 1/6  There must be something that works, but I can't come up with an example.

Answer:

0.06

Step-by-step explanation:

ok 1 tenth and 1 sixth are our equasions so lets conver then to desimals and lets start with 1 tenth so we devide 1/10 is 0.1 and now for 1 sixth is 0.6 so now we multiply the two and get 0.06

Experimentally verify sum of three angles of an triangle is 180⁰.​
svetlana [45]

Draw line a through points A and B. Draw line b through point C and parallel to line a.

Since lines a and b are parallel, <)BAC = <)B'CA and <)ABC = <)BCA'.

It is obvious that <)B'CA + <)ACB + <)BCA' = 180 degrees.

Thus <)ABC + <)BCA + <)CAB = 180 degrees.

Lemma

If ABCD is a quadrilateral and <)CAB = <)DCA then AB and DC are parallel.

Proof

Assume to the contrary that AB and DC are not parallel.

Draw a line trough A and B and draw a line trough D and C.

These lines are not parallel so they cross at one point. Call this point E.

Notice that <)AEC is greater than 0.

Since <)CAB = <)DCA, <)CAE + <)ACE = 180 degrees.

Hence <)AEC + <)CAE + <)ACE is greater than 180 degrees.

Contradiction. This completes the proof.

Definition

Two Triangles ABC and A'B'C' are congruent if and only if

|AB| = |A'B'|, |AC| = |A'C'|, |BC| = |B'C'| and,

<)ABC = <)A'B'C', <)BCA = <)B'C'A', <)CAB = <)C'A'B'.

Which pair of numbers is relatively prime
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Well, Two integers are relatively prime (or coprime) if there is no integer greater than one that divides them both (that is, their greatest common divisor is one). For example, 12 and 13 are relatively prime, but 12 and 14 are not.

Step-by-step explanation:  Hope this helped! <3

A movie theater has been charging $10.00 per person and selling about 500 tickets on a typical weeknight. After surveying their
kifflom [539]

Answer:

p(x) = -0.01x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let x represent the number of tickets, and p the charges

(x_1,p_1) = (500,10)

A reduction of 50c gives an increment of 50 tickets.

This gives:

(x_2,p_2) = (500+50,10-0,5) ---- 50c = \$0.5

(x_2,p_2) = (550,9.5)

Required

Determine the demand function

First, calculate the slope:

m = \frac{p_2 - p_1}{x_2 - x_1}

m = \frac{9.5 - 10}{550-500}

m = \frac{-0.5}{50}

m = -0.01

So, the equation is:

p = m(x - x_1) + y_1

p = -0.01(x - 500) +10

p = -0.01x + 5 +10

p = -0.01x + 15

Hence, the function is:

p(x) = -0.01x + 15
