Line segment of length k is divided into 3 equal parts.

so first segment is 0-k/3 and third segment is 2/3k-k

so mid-pt of 1st = k/6 and 3rd = 5/6k

so the distance in between = 5/6k-k/6 = 4/6k = 2/3k

You need to use a common denominator. The least common denominator of 11 and 22 is 22.

3/22 + -1/11 = 3/22 + -2/22 = 3/22 - 2/22 = 1/22

Can someone please help me with my maths question

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

$a. \ \dfrac{625 \cdot m}{27 \cdot n^{11}}$

$b. \ \dfrac{x^{3 \cdot m - 2}}{y^{ 3 + n}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates with rules of indices

(a) The give expression is presented as follows;

$\dfrac{m^3 \times \left (n^{-2} \right )^4 \times (5 \cdot m)^4}{\left (3 \cdot m^2 \cdot n \right )^3}$

By expanding the expression, we get;

$\dfrac{m^3 \times n^{-8} \times 5^4 \times m^4}{\left 3^3 \times m^6 \times n^3}$

Collecting like terms gives;

$\dfrac{m^{(3 + 4 - 6)} \times 5^4}{ 3^3 \times n^{3 + 8}} = \dfrac{625 \cdot m}{27 \cdot n^{11}}$

$\dfrac{m^3 \times \left (n^{-2} \right )^4 \times (5 \cdot m)^4}{\left (3 \cdot m^2 \cdot n \right )^3}= \dfrac{625 \cdot m}{27 \cdot n^{11}}$

(b) The given expression is presented as follows;

$x^{3 \cdot m + 2} \times \left (y^{n - 1} \right )^3 \div (x \cdot y^n)^4$

Therefore, we get;

$x^{3 \cdot m + 2} \times \left (y^{n - 1} \right )^3 \times x^{-4} \times y^{-4 \cdot n}$

Collecting like terms gives;

$x^{3 \cdot m + 2 - 4} \times \left (y^{3 \cdot n - 3 -4 \cdot n}} \right ) = x^{3 \cdot m - 2} \times \left (y^{ - 3 -n}} \right ) = x^{3 \cdot m - 2} \div \left (y^{ 3 + n}} \right )$

$x^{3 \cdot m - 2} \div \left (y^{ 3 + n}} \right ) = \dfrac{x^{3 \cdot m - 2}}{y^{ 3 + n}}$

$x^{3 \cdot m + 2} \times \left (y^{n - 1} \right )^3 \times x^{-4} \times y^{-4 \cdot n} =\dfrac{x^{3 \cdot m - 2}}{y^{ 3 + n}}$

What is 3 tens plus 7 tenths plus 8 hundredths as a decimal

Novay_Z [31]

3 tens= 30
7 tenths= 0.7
8 hundredths= 0.08

so 30+ 0.7+0.08= 30.78
