Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
A fraction is in simplest form when no other factor but 1 will divide into the numerator/ denominator
(1)
← is in simplest form
(2)
← is in simplest form
(3)
( divide numerator/ denominator by 2 )
= 
← in simplest form
Answer:
See below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that the numerators are the squares of 1, 2 3, 4 ...... and the denominators are the squares of 2, 3, 4, 5.....
The next 2 terms are 25/36 and 36/49.
The nth term is n^2 / (n + 1)^2 where n is the sequence number.
The 10th term is 10^2 / 11^2
= 100/121.
Answer:
a = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for calculating the slope of a line is expressed as;
m = ∆y/∆x
m = y2-y1/x2-x1
Given
m = 1/2
x1 = a
y1 = 14
x2 = 8
y2 = a
Required.
Value of a
Substitute the given parameters into the formula
1/2 = a-14/8-a
Cross multiply
1(8-a) = 2(a-14)
8-a = 2a-28
Collect like terms
-a-2a = -28-8
-3a = -36
a = -36/-3
a = 12
Hence the value of a is 12

Answer:
$62.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price is x
It is marked up 40 percent
x+.40x = new price
1.40x = new price
The new price is 87.50
1.40x = 87.50
Divide each side by 1.40
1.40x/1.40 = 87.50/1.40
x =62.50
The price before mark up is 62.50
