5/8-11/20=? Help what’s the answer I’m stuck on finding the LCM of the denominators

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

3/40

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{5}{8} - \frac{11}{20}$
$\frac{25}{40} - \frac{22}{40}$ (LCM is 40)
$\frac{25-22}{40}$
$\frac{3}{40}$

Therefore, the answer is 3/40!

Cecilia simplified an expression. Her work is shown below.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer: second step.

Step-by-step explanation:

you then have to distribute the answer not subtract 9 1/4 from 1.5

you have to do the parenthesis next

4.5/0.5=45/5=9

then

1.5*9= 13.5

then

9.25-13.5 which I think you are capable of solving

To find the measure of ∠A in ∆ABC, use the___(Pythagorean Theorem, Law of Sines, Law of Cosines). To find the length of side HI

nadya68 [22]

Part 1) To find the measure of ∠A in ∆ABC, use

we know that

In the triangle ABC

Applying the law of sines

$\frac{a}{sin\ A}=\frac{b}{sin\ B}=\frac{c}{sin\ C}$

in this problem we have

$\frac{a}{sin\ A}=\frac{b}{sin\ theta}\\ \\a*sin\ theta=b*sin\ A\\ \\ sin\ A=\frac{a*sin\ theta}{b} \\ \\ A=arc\ sin (\frac{a*sin\ theta}{b})$

therefore

the answer Part 1) is

Law of Sines

Part 2) To find the length of side HI in ∆HIG, use

we know that

In the triangle HIG

Applying the law of cosines

$g^{2}=h^{2}+i^{2}-2*h*i*cos\ G$

In this problem we have

g=HI

G=angle Beta

substitute

$HI^{2}=h^{2}+i^{2}-2*h*i*cos\ Beta$

$HI=\sqrt{h^{2}+i^{2}-2*h*i*cos\ Beta}$

therefore

the answer Part 2) is

Law of Cosines

A publisher estimates the annual demand for a book to be 8000 copies, and built a warehouse to accommodate at most 8000 copies.

Illusion [34]

Answer: $1000

Step-by-step explanation:

Annual demand (D) = 8000

Cost per order (S) = $1000

Cost per unit to print = $8 per book

Storage cost = $2 per book per year

The minimum total cost can be found thus :

√(2 × D × S) / storage cost * cost per unit

√(2 × 8000 × 1000) / (2 * 8)

√ (16,000,000 / 16

√ (1,000,000

= 1000

Hence , minimum total cost $1000

Find two consecutive integers whose product is 24 more than three times the first integer

gregori [183]

X= first integer
x+1= second consecutive integer

Product means multiply, so we'll multiply x by x+1. More than means to add and 3 times is multiplication.

x(x + 1)= 3x + 24
use distributive property to multiply x by everything in parentheses
(x*x) + (x*1)= 3x + 24
x^2 + x= 3x + 24
subtract 3x from both sides
x^2 - 2x= 24
subtract 24 from both sides
x^2 - 2x - 24= 0
factor the expression
(x-6)(x+4)= 0
x-6=0
x=6

x+4=0
x=-4

If x= 6 is the first integer, x+1= 7 is the second integer

If x= -4 is the first integer, x+1= -3 is the second integer

Hope this helps! :)
