Answer:

\frac{1}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Skills needed: Fraction Subtraction, Least Common Denominator (LCD)</u>

1) \frac{6}{8} - \frac{2}{6} - \frac{1}{4} is the operation you would do.

--> You would do this because, Carlotta has \frac{6}{8} of the paper left, and does one fraction amount (\frac{2}{6}) on Saturday & does another fraction amount (\frac{1}{4}) on Sunday.

-->  Using subtraction is the best way

2) Now, we need to figure out the Least Common Denominator for all 3 fractions.

8,6,4 are the denominators.

The lowest number that is a factor of all them is 24.

So, it would then become \frac{18}{24} - \frac{8}{24} - \frac{6}{24}

This would become: \frac{18-8-6}{24} (18-8-6 = 4)

So then: \frac{4}{24} is your answer.

This simplifies into \frac{1}{6}.

Hope this helps and have a nice day!! :) :]

Find the value of t.
zaharov [31]

Answer:

t =12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve this problem.

Put the smaller triangle on top and the larger triangle on bottom

12         9

------ = -------

16          t

Solve by using cross products

12 t = 9*16

12 t =144

Divide by 12

12t/12 = 144/12

t = 12

Match solutions and differential equations. Note: Each equation may have more than one solution. Select all that apply. (a) 7y''
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

a-e^x,e^{-x}

b-x^{-2}

c-x^3

Step-by-step explanation:

a.7 y''-7 y =0

Auxillary equation

D^2-1=0

(D-1)(D+1)=0

D=1,-1

Then , the solution of given differential equation

y=e^x,y=e^{-x}

2.7x^2y''+14xy'-14 y=0

Y=y=x^3

y=3x^2

y''=6x

Substitute in the given differential equation

42x^3+42x^3-14x^3\neq 0

Hence, x^3 is not a solution of given differential equation

e^x,e^{-x} are also not a solution of given differential equation.

y=x^{-2}

y'=-2x^{-3}

y''=6x^{-4}

Substitute the values in the differential equation

7x^2(6x^{-4})+14x(-2x^{-3})-14 x^{-2}

=42x^{-2}-28x^{-2}-14x^{-2}=0

Hence, x^{-2} is a solution of given differential equation.

c.7x^2y''-42y=0

y=x^3

y'=3x^2

y''=6x

Substitute the values in the differential equation

42x^3-42x^3=0

Hence, x^3 is a solution of given differential equation.

a-e^x,e^{-x}

b-x^{-2}

c-x^3
