Making Equivalent Fractions :

5.3      Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions

Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.

For example :  1/2   and  2/4  are equivalent,  y/(y+1)2   and  (y2+y)/(y+1)3  are equivalent as well.

To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.

  L. Mult. • L. Num.       5

  ——————————————————  =   ——

        L.C.M             20

  R. Mult. • R. Num.      9y • 2

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

5.4       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{4}+\frac{9}{10}y - \frac{3}{5}y+\frac{7}{8}\\\\=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{7}{8}+\frac{9}{10}y-\frac{3}{5}y\\\\

Combine like terms. 1/4 and 7/8 are like terms and LCD of 4 and 8 is 8

9/10y and -3/5y are like terms and LCD of 10 , 5 is 10

= \frac{1*2}{4*2}+\frac{7}{8}+\frac{9}{10}y-\frac{3*2}{5*2}y\\\\=\frac{2}{8}+\frac{7}{8}+\frac{9}{10}y-\frac{6}{10}y\\\\=\frac{9}{8}+\frac{3}{10}y

The sum of a 3 digit number and a 1 digit number is 217. The product of the numbers is 642. If one number is between 200 and 225
algol [13]
Let, the numbers be "x" and "y". Consider "x" as the triple digit number.
Now, according to the question,
x + y = 217..........................equation (1)

x * y = 642............................equation (2)

Now,
Taking equation (2),
x * y = 642
y = 642 / x..................................equation (3)

Now, Taking equation (1),
x+y=217

Substituting the value of y from equation (3), we get,

x+ \frac{642}{x} =217

\frac{x *x+642}{x} =217

x^{2} +642 =217*x

x^{2} +642 =217x

x^{2} +642-217x =0

x^{2} -217x+642 =0

x^{2} -3x-214x+642 =0

x(x-3)-214(x-3)=0

(x-3)(x-214)=0

Using zero product property,
EITHER,
           x - 3 = 0
                x = 3
OR,
          x - 214 = 0
                  x  = 214
Since, "x" is the triple digit number, x = 214.
Now,
Taking equation (2),
x * y = 642
Substituting the value of "x" in the equation, we get,
(214) * y = 642
y = 642 / 214
y = 3

So, the numbers are 214 and 3.

What is the measure of EFG?<br><br> 83 66<br><br> O 17°<br><br> O 75°<br><br> 149<br><br> O 211°
GREYUIT [131]

Answer: 149

Step-by-step explanation: <EDG = <EDF + <FDG

=86+66= 149

e know that the measure of arc in degrees is equals the measure of the central angle that intercepts the arc.

Now,the measure of arc EFG is given by Arc EFG=central angle EDG= 149

The graph below shows the relationship between pounds of dog food and total cost, in dollars, for the dog food. A coordinate gra
n200080 [17]

We know that x-axis represents weight of dog food in pounds

AND y-axis represents Total cost in dollars

AND a line connects (0,0) and (10,5)

Based on the information we can plot a graph that can be seen in the attached image. The line represents y = \frac{x}{2}

Now, let's look at each of the statements to see which is true and which is false:

A) Point (0, 0) shows the cost is $0 for 0 pound of dog food.

(0,0) indicates that the cost for 0 pound dog food is $0. Hence, this statement is true.

B) Point (1, 0.5) shows the cost is $1.00 for 0.5 pound of dog food.

(1,0.5) indicates that the cost for 1 pound dog food is $0.5. Hence, this statement is false.

C) Point (2, 1) shows that 2 pounds of dog food cost $1.

(2,1) indicates that the cost for 2 pounds dog food is $1. Hence, this statement is true.

D) Point (4, 2) shows the cost is $4 for 2 pounds of dog food.

(4,2) indicates that the cost for 4 pounds dog food is $2. Hence, this is false.

E) Point (10, 5) shows that 10 pounds of dog food costs $5

(10,5) indicates the cost for 10 pounds dog food is $5. Hence, this is true.
