Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9(3)^-4

3^2 × (3^-4)

in algebraic expression a^n × a^m = a^n+m

3^2+(-4)

3^-2

but 3^-2 = 1/3²

1/3²= 1/9

Lara wants to inscribe a square in a circle using only a compass and straightedge. She will first construct a circle and locate

Mamont248 [21]

In Step 2, Lara did not ensure that the second diamter was perpendicualr to the first diameter she drew.

The correct steps should be:

Step 1: Use the straightedge to draw a diameter of the circle. Label the points at which the diameter touches the circle as A and B.

Step 2: Draw a second diameter perpendicular to the first diameter. Label the points at which the second diameter touches the circle as C and D.

Step 3: Join the end points of the two diameters to form a square.

Answer:

The fraction of the beads that are red is

Step-by-step explanation:

Algebraic Expressions

A bag contains red (r), yellow (y), and blue (b) beads. We are given the following ratios:

r:y = 2:3

y:b = 5:4

We are required to find r:s, where s is the total of beads in the bag, or

s = r + y + b

Thus, we need to calculate:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b} \qquad\qquad [1]$

Knowing that:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}=\frac{2}{3} \qquad\qquad [2]$

$\displaystyle \frac{y}{b}=\frac{5}{4}$

Multiplying the equations above:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}\frac{y}{b}=\frac{2}{3}\frac{5}{4}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{b}=\frac{5}{6} \qquad\qquad [3]$

Dividing [1] by r:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+y/r+b/r}$

Substituting from [2] and [3]:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+3/2+6/5}$

Operating:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{\frac{10+3*5+6*2}{10}}$

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{10+15+12}$

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{37}$

The fraction of the beads that are red is $\mathbf{\frac{10}{37}}$
