The missing pieces strategy is another method to compare two fractions. To tell which number is larger, you need to see which one is missing less. For example, you have 3/4 versus 4/5. Each of these fractions needs 1 to complete the whole. You need to subtract the numerator with one to compare them. For 3/4 we have 1/4 and for 4/5 we have 1/5. You know that if you complete 4/5 you will get 4. You know that 5 is greater than four. Therefore, 4/5 is larger than 3/4.
Answer:
k = 13The smallest zero or root is x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
you can write "x^2" to mean "x squared"
f(x) = x^2+3x-10
f(x+5) = (x+5)^2+3(x+5)-10 ... replace every x with x+5
f(x+5) = (x^2+10x+25)+3(x+5)-10
f(x+5) = x^2+10x+25+3x+15-10
f(x+5) = x^2+13x+30
Compare this with x^2+kx+30 and we see that k = 13
Factor and solve the equation below
x^2+13x+30 = 0
(x+10)(x+3) = 0
x+10 = 0 or x+3 = 0
x = -10 or x = -3
The smallest zero is x = -10 as its the left-most value on a number line.
Answer:
x>11
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify this inequality, we add 3 from both sides to get x-3+3>8+3. Since -3+3 cancels out to 0, we are left with x>8+3. 8+3=11 so x>11.
Hope this helps! If you need further explanation let me know :)
10 is the least common denominator
Answer:
LCM(9, -1, -1, +2, +2, +2) = 2×3^2 = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
9 = 32
-1 = -1
-1 = -1
+2 = 2
+2 = 2
+2 = 2
LCM = 2×3^2 = 18
18 / 9 = 2
18 / -1 = -18
18 / -1 = -18
18 / +2 = 9
18 / +2 = 9
18 / +2 = 9
