What is the answer to 2/3 - 7/15=

Mathematics
1 answer:
elixir [45]3 years ago

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 - 7/15

Now when dealing with fractions, alas make the dominator ( bottom number the same), and the rule of thumb is, whatever u do to the bottom, must be done to the top

2 7

-------- - - - - - -

3 15

So now u should think, how to make 3 to 15, so u multiply it by 5, therefore u would also need to multiply it to the top

2 x 5 7

-------- - - - - - -

3 x 5 15

10 7

-------- - - - - - -

15 15

Now just minus horizontally ( u don't need to minus the dominator)

3

---------

15

Now can u make this fraction smaller? As in, is there a number that u can divide to the top and bottom, yes, that number is 3 in this case

3 ÷3

---------

15 ÷3

= 1

- - - - -

5

Thats your final answer

I need help with this problem please!

Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram, consecutive angles are supplementary, thus

∠ A + ∠ B = 180 , substitute values

2x + 2x - 20 = 180

4x - 20 = 180 ( add 20 to both sides )

4x = 200 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 50

I need help please will give brainliest
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

1.) True, because it says three times so you know the x belongs there. Also, you have to follow the order of what the problem says.

2.) False, because it is not in the order of how the problem states it.

3.) False, because if you transfer the fraction to a decimal you get 4.333333. It's not valid.

4.) True, because if you do 7 × 3, it equals to 21. So, 21 - 17 = 4. And Jenny is supposed to have 4 quilts.

Hope it helps! :D

You have been asked to design a rectangular box with a square base and an open top. The volume of the box must be 2916cm3. Deter
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

  x = 18 cm

  y = 9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

An open-top box will have minimum surface area when it is in the shape of half a cube. The whole cube would have volume 2×2916 = 5832 cm³, so its side length would be ∛5832 cm = 18 cm.

The dimensions of the box are x = 18 cm; y = 9 cm.

__

The surface area is x^2 +4xy, where y = 2916/x^2. That is, the surface area is ...

  S = x^2 +11664/x

Setting the derivative to zero, we find ...

  dS/dx = 0 = 2x -11664/x^2

  x^3 = 5832 . . . . . . . . may look familiar

  x = ∛5832 = 18

  y = 2916/18^2 = 9
