Rename 5/6 and 14/15 using the least common denominator.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vedmedyk [2.9K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

25/30 and 28/30

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find the least common denominator, you need to find the least common multiple of the two denominators which are 6 and 15. Prime factorization of these numbers gives:

6 = 2 x 3

15 = 5 x 3

A number that would evenly divide both 6 and 15 must contain 2 x 3 x 5 which is 30.

Thus 30 is the least common denominator.

2. Now we need to somehow change both fractions to make them have a denominator of 30. To do this we can multiply by fractions with same numerator and denominator since that would be like multiplying by 1.

So, 5/6 x 5/5 = 25/30

And 14/15 x 2/2 = 28/30

A rectangular prism is 4 meters long, 5 meters wide, and has a height of 7 meters. What is its volume?
sasho [114]
The volume of a rectangular prism is found with the formula
V = w · l · h
So if you substitute those variables for the dimensions of the prism you get
V = 5 · 4 · 7
Then you simplify
V = 20 · 7
V = 140

Therefore, the volume of the prism is answer choice 1, 140 meters³

Find the area of the figure. Use 3.14 as π.
Karolina [17]

Answer: D. 94.25 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total area, we will break the shape up into two different parts.

[] The rounded part is 39.25 in². Let us assume the rounded part is exactly half of a circle.

      Area of a circle:

A = πr²

      Use 3.14 for pi:

A = (3.14)r²

      Find the radius:

d / 2 = r, 10 / 2 = 5 in

      Subsittue:

A = (3.14)(5)²

A = 78.5 in²

      Divide by 2 since it is only half:

78.5 in² / 2 = 39.25 in²

[] The triangle is 55 in².

      Area of a triangle:

A = b*h/2

A = 11 * 10 / 2

A = 110 / 2

A = 55 in²

[] Total area. We will add the two parts together.

55 in² + 39.25 in² = 94.25 in²

Multiply the trinomial x^2+xy+y^2 times the binomial x-y and simplify.
Natalija [7]
Multiply then simplify, that's doing the same work twice...anyway

x^3+x^2y+xy^2-x^2y-xy^2-y^3

x^3-y^3  which if factored is:

(x-y)(x^2+xy+y^2)  which is what you started with :)

Mr. See weights his grades. Tests are worth 60%, quizzes are worth 25% and homework is 15%. Joey's test average is an 82, his qu
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

83.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Joey's current grade can be determined by weighting his scores with the weights given and adding the results

Tests = 0.6 x 82 = 49.2

Quizzes = 0.25 x 77 = 19.25

homework = 0.15 x 98 = 14.7

49.2 + 19.25 + 14.7 = 83.15
