a. 9/10
explanation:
• the denominators (bottom number) are the same so there is no need to change to a common factor
• because the fractions have common factors, you add the top numbers (3+6) to get 9
• then you put the top number over the 10 (9/10) and it’s simplified as much as possible
b. 3/4
explanation:
• each denominator (bottom term) is a factor of 12 so you have to change each fraction to #/12
• to change 1/3, you multiply the top and bottom numbers by 4 (1x4 & 3x4 = 4/12)
• to change 1/4, you multiply the top and bottom numbers by 3 (1x3 & 4x3 = 3/12)
• to change 1/6, you multiple the top and bottom numbers by 2 (1x2 & 6x2 = 2/12)
• then you add each of the top numbers (4+3+2) and put it over the common denominator (12) to get 9/12
- both 9 & 12 are divisible by 3, so you simply by dividing both by 3 to get 3/4
c. 1/3
explanation:
•the denominators are the same, so you subtract 5-3 without changing the denominator & you get 2/6
• then, because both numbers are divisible by 2, you divide both by 2 and get 1/3

The capital formation of the investment function over a given period is the
accumulated capital for the period.
- (a) The capital formation from the end of the second year to the end of the fifth year is approximately <u>298.87</u>.
- (b) The number of years before the capital stock exceeds $100,000 is approximately <u>46.15 years</u>.
Reasons:
(a) The given investment function is presented as follows;

(a) The capital formation is given as follows;

From the end of the second year to the end of the fifth year, we have;
The end of the second year can be taken as the beginning of the third year.
Therefore, for the three years; Year 3, year 4, and year 5, we have;

The capital formation from the end of the second year to the end of the fifth year, C ≈ 298.87
(b) When the capital stock exceeds $100,000, we have;
![\displaystyle \mathbf{\left[1000 \cdot e^{0.1 \cdot t}} + C \right]^t_0} = 100,000](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%20%20%5Cmathbf%7B%5Cleft%5B1000%20%5Ccdot%20%20e%5E%7B0.1%20%5Ccdot%20t%7D%7D%20%2B%20C%20%5Cright%5D%5Et_0%7D%20%3D%20100%2C000)
Which gives;




The number of years before the capital stock exceeds $100,000 ≈ <u>46.15 years</u>.

The weight of each pie will be 6 and 8 pounds respectively if the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4
<h3>What is the ratio?</h3>
It is described as the comparison of two quantities to determine how many times one obtains the other. The proportion can be expressed as a fraction or as a sign: between two integers.
We have:
A greedy hamster hoarded 2 piles of sunflower seeds. Yesterday the ratio of the seeds in these piles was 3:4
Let 3x and 4x are the seeds from the smaller and bigger pile.
= 4x + 2 (greedy hamster placed another 2 pounds of seeds in the bigger pile)
= 3x - 1/4 (ate 1/4 pound from the smaller pile)
4x + 2 = 5x
Because the quantities of seeds in those piles is in the ratio of 5:16
After solving:
x = 2
Smaller pile weight = 3x = 3(2) = 6
Bigger pile wieght = 4x = 4(2) = 8
Thus, the weight of each pie will be 6 and 8 pounds respectively if the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4
