You first need to find the LCD (lowest common denominator). You will need to find the smallest number that is a multiple of all numbers that is the denominator (2, 16, 8). Or, to say it another way, all the numbers in the denominator need to be a factor of this number.
You can find this by first checking if the largest number that is the denominator-- in this case 16-- is already the LCD, which means 16 is divisible by all the other numbers.
If this does not work, then multiply all the numbers together to get the LCD-- since you multiplied them together, you know that they will all be factors of the product.
However, you will be able to see that 16 is indeed the lowest common denominator:
2 × 8=16
8 × 2=16
16 × 1=16
So, after you find the LCD, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the number that you would need to multiply the denominator to get the LCD (the whole point is that you want to get the denominator to be the LCD, but to do that you need to multiply both the top and bottom by the same number to keep the fraction the same).
(1/2) x (8/8)= 8/16
(3/16) x (1/1)= 3/16
(7/8) x (2/2)= 14/16
C. $122.10
20 first hour
20+0.1*20 = 22 second hour
22+0.1*22 = 24.2 third hour
24.2+0.1*24.2 = 26.62 fourth hour
26.62+0.1*26.62 = 29.282 fifth hour
Total=$122.10
Answer:
The last one.
Step-by-step explanation:
The solutions with the horizontal lines are wrong because then h(x) would be -1 and 1 respectively.
The subtlety is in the open or closed dot. x ≥ -1 means that -1 is included, which is drawn as a closed dot. x < -1 means that -1 is excluded, which is drawn as an open dot.
Hence the last graph is the correct one.
A. 1/4; 2/4=1/2; 1/4
b. 1
c. 3/4. There are 4 blocks and 3 are not red
d. 1/4+3/4= 4/4=1
