Step-by-step explanation:

Make sure the denominators (thats the bottom number) are the same!! This is very important!! For example, if you are subtracting 3/10 from 1/2 you are going to multiply 1/2 by 5 (because 2×5 is 10) and get 5/10. Now, what you are going to do is subtract 4 from 5 and get 1/10. I hope this helped!

Heres a couple videos for extra help

Answer:

make the denominators ( bottom number ) the same and whatever u do to that do to the top

Step-by-step explanation:

e.g ½ - ⅓

make the common denominator 6

to get from 2 to 6 u times by 3 so it wud be 3/6

and then to get from 3 to 6 u times by 2 so do the same to the numerator (top number) so u get 2/6

3/6 take away 2/6 is 1/6

For what value of k is there one solution to the given quadratic equation (k+1)x²+4kx+2=0.

andriy [413]

Answer:

If $k = 1$ or $k = -\frac{1}{2}$ , there is only one solution to the given quadratic equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

$ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0$

This polynomial has roots $x_{1}, x_{2}$ such that $ax^{2} + bx + c = (x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})$ , given by the following formulas:

$x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}$

$x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}$

$\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac$

The signal of $\bigtriangleup$ determines how many real roots an equation has:

$\bigtriangleup > 0$ : Two real and different solutions

$\bigtriangleup = 0$ : One real solution

$\bigtriangleup < 0$ : No real solutions

In this problem, we have the following second order polynomial:

$(k+1)x^{2} + 4kx + 2 = 0$ .

This means that $a = k+1; b = 4k; c = 2$

It has one solution if

$\bigtriangleup = 0$

$b^{2} - 4ac = 0$

$16k^{2} -8(k+1) = 0$

$16k^{2} - 8k - 8 = 0$

We can simplify by 8

$2k^{2} - k - 1 = 0$

The solution is:

$k = 1$ or $k = -\frac{1}{2}$

So, if $k = 1$ or $k = -\frac{1}{2}$ , there is only one solution to the given quadratic equation.

Given the diagram below find x, and the measure of

Sophie [7]

Answer:

8, 40 , 50

Step-by-step explanation:

the measure of A is 90°

so 5x + 7x - 6 = 90

now.. to find the x

5x + 7x - 6 = 90

5x + 7x = 90 + 6

12x = 96

x = 96/12

x = 8

so the measure of angle A1 is (5*8) = 40

the measure of angle A2 is (7*8-6) = 50

finaly the angle A is (50+40) = 90
