Answer:

The first thing you do is make the denominators equal on both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

As a example if you have the equation:

\frac{1}{2} + \frac{2}{5} =

you would multiply the denominator by the smallest multiple. I would do 2 * 5= 10

this would make the equation

\frac{x}{10} + \frac{x}{10} = ...

next you have to do the same with the numerator.

so sence you multiplied the \frac{1}{2} by five you will get \frac{5}{10}

same with the other fraction except you multiplied it by two.\frac{2}{5} x 2 = \frac{4}{10}

next you add and simplify if needed

Answer:

3 simple steps

Step-by-step explanation:

1.     Make sure the bottom numbers ( the denominators ) are the same

       IF DIFFERENT find the LCD

2.    Add the top numbers (the numerators )

3.    simplify the fraction if needed

ex:  1/4 +1/4 = 2/4  (bottoms were the same) simplify  1/2

       1/3 + 1/6    LCD of 3 and 6 so make the bottom numbers 6

                         so multiply  1/3 x  2 = 2/6

        now you have 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6    simplify 1/2

If a convex polyhedron has 12 edges and 8 faces, then how many vertices does it have?
Vika [28.1K]
Hi 

Use Euler's formula for this for a 3D figure. F + V = E + 2, where F is the number of faces, V is the number of vertices, E is the number of edges, +2! You have enough info to fill in the formula to find that the number of vertices is 6.

Which of the following examples best represents the use of an interval scale? measuring the number of cookie boxes sold by scout
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

students' ratings of their professors' performance on a five-point scale ranging from poor to excellent

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four type of scales in mathematics. They include:

1. Nominal scale : they do not measure quantity. they are used to classify a population into two or more scales that are exhaustive and mutually exclusive. e.g. classifying a population based on gender, naming the different car brands seen in a school's parking lot

2. Ordinal scale : this scale measures ranks a population from best to worst or from least to most. e.g. ranking the participants of a race based on their performance

3. Interval scale : this scale has the property of order and equal intervals. Zero is not meaningful.

Interval scale is used when the difference between the numbers are meaningful. e.g. students' ratings of their professors' performance on a five-point scale ranging from poor to excellent Here a child who is scored 1, did very poorly and a child scored 5, performed excellently well.

4. Ratio scale :  this scale has the property of order, a meaningful zero and equal intervals.

At a point on the ground 46 feet from the foot of a tree, the angle of elevation of the top of the tree is 68 degrees. What is t
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

114 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine or construct a right triangle with the 46 ft leg lying on the ground.  This is the "adjacent side" of the triangle; it lies immediately adjacent to the 68 degree angle.  The side opposite this angle is h, the height of the tree.

The tangent function includes angle, opp side and adj side:

tan 68 degrees = opp / adj = h / (46 ft), and so:

(46 ft)*tan (68 degrees) = opp = h

Then the height of the tree is h = (46 ft)(2.47) = 114 ft
