Answer:

$7\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3\frac{1}{9}p+5-\frac{1}{3}p$

Put it into a different form to make it easier.

$3\frac{1}{9}p-\frac{1}{3}p+5$

Add the fractions. We need to figure out the LCM to figure out the common denominator. The LCM is 9 in this case.

$3\frac{1}{9}-\frac{3}{9} +5$

I like to convert into imroper fractions. This is optional though.

$\frac{28}{9} -\frac{3}{9} +5$

$\frac{24}{9} +5$

$\frac{8}{3}+5$

Get a common denominator. The LCM is 3.

$\frac{8}{3}+\frac{15}{3}$

$\frac{23}{3}$

Make this fraction into a mixed number.

$7\frac{2}{3}$

I hope this helps!

Given sin A = 12/13 and that angle A is in Quadrant 1,

UkoKoshka [18]

We have been given that $\text{sin}(A)=\frac{12}{13}$ and angle A is in quadrant 1. We are asked to find the exact value of $\text{cot}(A)$ in simplest radical form.

We know that sine relates opposite side of right triangle with hypotenuse.

$\text{sin}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

This means that opposite side is 12 units and hypotenuse is 13 units.

We know that cotangent relates adjacent side of right triangle with adjacent side.

$\text{cot}=\frac{\text{Adjacent}}{\text{Opposite}}$

Now we will find adjacent side using Pythagoras theorem as:

$\text{Adjacent}^2=\text{Hypotenuse}^2-\text{Oppoiste}^2$

$\text{Adjacent}^2=13^2-12^2$

$\text{Adjacent}^2=169-144$

$\text{Adjacent}^2=25$

Let us take positive square root on both sides:

$\sqrt{\text{Adjacent}^2}=\sqrt{25}$

$\text{Adjacent}=5$

Therefore, adjacent side of angle A is 5 units.

$\text{cot}(A)=\frac{5}{12}$

Therefore, the exact value of cot A is $\frac{5}{12}$ .

Find all ratios that are equivalent to 4 : 6 and have a first term that is less than 40.

kherson [118]

Answer:

2: 3, 4: 6, 6: 9, 8: 12 , 10: 15, 12: 18, 14: 21, 16: 24, 18: 27, 20: 30, 22: 33, 24:36, 26: 39, 28: 42, 30: 45, 32: 48, 34: 51, 36: 54, 38: 57

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio 4: 6 can be simplified to 2:3 by dividing by 2 to each side of the ratio. After simplified to 2:3, you add the ration to itself to get the rest of the terms.
