Explained below :)
(I tried my best, sorry if it doesn't make sense.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Example: 1/4 - 1/8= ?
1: Find the common denominator (bottom number)
2: If the common denominator is 8 then you multiply 1/4 by 2/2 to get the denominator of 8. If you needed then you can multiply the other fraction to get the same denominator.
3: Once you get multiply that then you get 2/8 -1/8.
4: Subtract the numerator (top number) 1
5: Keep the numerator (8)
6: Your answer would be 1/8
You worded this weird but wouldn't it be eight?
Answer:
Maximizing Profit. Waterbrook Farm includes 240 acres of cropland. The farm owner wishes to plant this acreage in both corn and soybeans. The profit per acre in corn production is $325 and in soybeans is $180.A total of 320 hr of labor is available. Each acre of corn requires 2 hr of labor, whereas each acre of soybean requires 1 hr of labor. How should the land be divided between corn and soybeans in order to yield the maximum profit? What is the maximum profit?
Step-by-step explanation:
is the logical or/disjunction symbol.
means "
or
". Disjunction is commutative, which means
is equivalent to
.
So if
represents
and
represents
, then
means
or
.
A rug maker is using a pattern that is a rectangle with a length of 96 inches and a width of 60 inches. The rug maker wants to increase each dimension by a different amount. Let l and w be the increases in the length and width. Write and simplify an expression for the perimeter of the new pattern.
p=2(96+l)+2(60+w)
This is the equation. p is for perimeter. (96+l) represents the original length plus the change in length. The 2 before (96+l) represents that there is one length on each side of the rectangle.
Same for the width. (60+w) represents the original width plus the change in width. The 2 before (60+w) represents that there is one width on each side of the rectangle.
The simplified equation is p=(192+2l)+(120+2w) (this is your answer)
I hope this helps!
