Answer:

16/21

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find the least common denominator (LCD) of 3/7,1/3. In other words, find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 7,3.

LCD=21

2) Make the denominators the same as the LCD

$\frac{3*3}{7*3} +\frac{1*7}{3*7}$

3) Simplify. Denominators are now the same.

$\frac{9}{21} +\frac{7}{21} \\$

4) Join the denominators

$\frac{9+7}{21}$

5) Simplify

$\frac{16}{21}$

Answer:

${ \tt{ \frac{3}{7} + \frac{1}{3} }} \\ \\ = { \tt{ \frac{(3 \times 3) + (7 \times 1)}{21} }} \\ \\ = { \tt{ \frac{9 + 7}{21} }} \\ \\ = \: \dashrightarrow \: { \tt{ \frac{16}{21} }}$

What is the mathematical induction of <br> 1+3+5+...+(2n-1)=n^2

Lena [83]

Let $S(n)$ be the statement that

$1+3+5+\cdots+(2n-1)=\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^n(2k-1)=n^2$

Check to see that $S(n)$ holds for $n=1$ :

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^1(2k-1)=1=1^2\implies S(1)\text{ is true}$

Now suppose that $S(N)$ is true, and use that assumption to show that $S(N+1)$ must also be true. When $n=N+1$ , you have

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{N+1}(2k-1)=\sum_{k=1}^N(2k-1)+2(N+1)-1$
$=N^2+2(N+1)-1$
$=N^2+2N+1$
$=(N+1)^2$

and so $S(N+1)$ is also true, thus proving the statement is true for all $n$ .

What is the distance between the points (–4, –5) and (5, –1)?

Kamila [148]

Answer:

About 4.39.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is the square root of ( x2 − x1 ) squared + ( y2 − y1 ) squared. Plugging in our x and y values, you get 4.386342439892262, which rounds up to 4.39.
