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

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.

Cherie is jogging around a circular track. She
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Measure of minor angle JOG is 95.5^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a circular track of radius 120 yards. Assume that Cherie starts from point J and runs 200 yards up to point G.  

\therefore m JG = 200 yards, JO=120 yards.  

Now the measure of minor arc is same as measure of central angle. Therefore minor angle is the central angle \angle JOG = \theta.

To calculate the central angle, use the arc length formula as follows.  

Arc\:Length\left(s\right) = r\:\theta  

Where \theta is measured in radian.

Substituting the value,

200=120\:\theta  

Dividing both side by 120,

\dfrac{200}{120}=\theta  

Reducing the fraction into lowest form by dividing numerator and denominator by 40.

\therefore \dfrac{5}{3}=\theta  

Therefore value of central angle is \angle JOG = \theta=\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{c}, since angle is in radian

Now convert radian into degree by using following formula,

1^{c}=\left(\dfrac{180}{\pi}\right)^{\circ}

So multiplying \theta with \left(\dfrac{180}{\pi}\right)^{\circ} to convert it into degree.

\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{c}=\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right) \times \left(\dfrac{180}{\pi}\right)^{\circ}

Simplifying,

\therefore \theta = 95.49^{circ}

So to nearest tenth, \angle JOG=95.5^{circ}

what is the volume of the cone with radius 6 inches and height 10 inches express the answer in terms of pi
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

V = (1/3)(π)(6 in)²(10 in) = 120π in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone of radius r and height h is V = (1/3)πr²h.

Here, that volume is V = (1/3)(π)(6 in)²(10 in) = 120π in³
