Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not properly structured but we can as well find the sum of 5/7 and 10 as shown;

$\frac{5}{7}+ \frac{10}{1} \\The \ LCM \ is \ 7\\\\= \frac{5(1)+10(7)}{7}\\\\= \frac{5+70}{7}\\\\= \frac{75}{7} \\\\= 10 \frac{5}{7}$

Hence the expression written in equivalent form of common denominator is $\frac{5 + 70}{7}$

The sum is $10 \frac{5}{7}$

Tom has three times as many pencils as pens but has a total of 100 writing utensils. How many pencils does Tom have? How many pe

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

There are 75 pencils and 25 pens.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Tom has three times as many pencils than pens then,

Pencils = 3(Pens)

If there are a total of 100 writing utensils then,

Pencils + Pens = 100

Substitute the word "pencils" in this equation to 3(Pens),

3(Pens) + Pens = 100

Now remember there is almost a 'hidden' one beside the word "Pens" so,

3Pens + 1Pens = 100

Add the two together,

4Pens = 100

Divide,

Pens = 25

Substitute 25 into the first equation,

Pencils = 3(25)

Pencils = 75

Thus, there are 75 pencils and 25 pens.

Write down a fraction whose value lies between 3 and 4; whose denominator is a multiple of 5; whose numerator is a multiple of 1

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

33/10 and 55/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Possible denominators that are multiples of 5 less than 17 are 5, 10, 15.

Corresponding numerator ranges are [15, 20], [30, 40], and [45, 60]. In only two of these ranges are there any multiples of 11.

33 in [30, 40]

55 in [45, 60]

So, there are only two possible fractions meeting your requirement:

33/10 and 55/15

If g(x) = 3x + 1, evaluate g(-2).

zloy xaker [14]

G(x) = 3x + 1, evaluate g(-2).

Simply plug in (- 3) in g(x)

g(-2) = 3(-2) + 1

g(-2) = - 6 +1

g(-2) = - 5
