a) because the denominators are the same add the numerators:
1 1/5 + 3 2/5 = 4 3/5
b) rewrite the fractions to have a common denominator:
1/2 = 3/6
1/3 = 2/6
Now subtract:
4 3/6 - 1 2/6 = 3 1/6
Answer:
B) variables
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence is infinite because the exponents 2 ,3 ,4 ,... go on infinitely.
That next number in the equence is obtained by multiplying each term by ab.
the sixth term is 2a^(6)b^(5)
Answer:
105 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
5 x 12 = 60
So 5 feet is 60 inches.
60 + 3 = 63
That makes the ridge 63 inches long.
When the lion went up the ridge, it traveled 63 inches.
When the lion went back down the ridge, it traveled another 63 inches, totaling 126 inches.
The lion did this 10 times.
126 x 10 = 1260
Divide 1260 by 12 to find the measurement in feet.
1260 ÷ 12 = 105
Pictures always help; see the one I've attached for reference.
Call the first vector (from HQ to the supply drop) u and the second vector (from supply drop to medics) v. We then want to find w, the vector from the medics to HQ, which corresponds to the vector -(u + v). (This is because u + v is the vector pointing from HQ to the medics; we're talking about the one in the opposite direction.)
Write the vectors in horizontal/vertical component form:
u = (125 km) (cos 235º x + sin 235º y) = (-71.70 x - 102.39 y) km
v = (75 km) (cos 110º x + sin 110º y) = (-25.65 x + 70.48 y) km
Why these angles?
- "55 degrees south of west" is 235º; due west is 180º from the positive horizontal axis, and you add 55º to this
- "20 degrees west of north" is 110º; due north is 90º, so add 20º to this
Add the vectors:
u + v = (-97.35 x - 31.92 y) km
Multiply by -1 to get the vector w:
w = -(u + v) = (97.35 x + 31.92 y) km
The distance covered by this vector is equal to its magnitude:
||w|| = √((97.35 km)^2 + (31.92 km)^2) = 102.45 km
The direction <em>θ</em> is given by
tan<em>θ</em> = (31.92 km)/(97.35 km) ==> <em>θ</em> = 18.15º
