Hello!
The answer is 20/60 simplest form is 1/3
To get 20/60 you must multiply the Numerator by Numerator (4*5) and Denominator by Denominator (5*12). Your answer will be 20/60.
To get 1/3 you must simplify a number that can go into 20 and 60 (which is 10). Divide 20/10 and 60/10 and get 2/6. Simplify 2/6 by 2 and get 1/3.
Y = -1.33 * x - 3
y = -1.33 -3 *x
y = -4.33 *x
Let x and y be the 2 parts of 15 ==> x + y=15 (given)
Reciprocal of x and y ==> 1/x +1/y ==> 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 (given)
Let's solve 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 . Common denominator = 10.x.y (reduce to same denominator)
==> (10y+10x)/10xy = 3xy/10xy ==> 10x+10y =3xy
But x+y = 15 , then 10x+10y =150 ==> 150=3xy and xy = 50
Now we have the sum S of the 2 parts that is S = 15 and
their Product = xy =50
Let's use the quadratic equation for S and P==> X² -SX +P =0
Or X² - 15X + 50=0, Solve for X & you will find:
The 1st part of 15 is 10 & the 2nd part is 5
Answer:
12 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean Theorem is as follows:
A and B represent the side lengths (legs) and C represents the hypotenuse.
The length of one leg equals 5cm. (This can be represented by either a or b)
The hypotenuse equals 13 cm.
Plug these into the equation from above:
Solve for the other leg:
Square what's in the parentheses from above
Subtract 25 from 169
Square root both sides
a = 12 cm
Thus, the length of the other leg is 12 cm.
Let's check our answer:
Square everything
144 + 25 = 169 Add
169 = 169
Because both sides are equal it means that 12 cm is the correct answer.
Hope this helps!!
