Wittaler [7]

Answer:

less than 1 1/2 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2, so the sum of the three cans is more than 1 by the difference between 1/5 and 1/6. That difference is 1/30 gallon. The sum is 1 1/30 gallons, which is less than 1 1/2 gallons.

A suitable common denominator is 2·3·5 = 30. Then the sum of the fractions is ...

1/3 + 1/5 + 1/2

= 10/30 + 6/30 + 15/30

= 31/30 = 1 1/30 . . . . . less than 1 1/2

In decimal, 1/3 ≈ 0.333, 1/5 = 0.200, 1/2 = 0.500, so the sum is ...

0.333 +0.200 +0.500 = 1.033

which is less than 1.5.

Which mathematical statement matches the vector operation shown in the geometric representation?

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

First Option $v+w = u$

Step-by-step explanation:

To graphically add two vectors a and b using the -tail and tip-method, you must draw the tail of b at the tip of the vector a. Then you must draw a line that goes from the tail of a to the tip of b. This line represents the sum of $a + b$ .
