What is the gcf of 3/7 and 4/9?

Mathematics

Answer:

1/63

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to do this.

Look for the GCF of the numerators when a common denominator is used.

GCF(3/7, 4/9) = GCF(27/63, 28/63) = (1/63)·GCF(27, 28)

GCF(3/7, 4/9) = 1/63

Use Euclid's algorithm. If the remainder from division of the larger by the smaller is zero, then the smaller is the GCF; otherwise, the remainder replaces the larger, and the algorithm repeats.

(4/9)/(3/7) = 1 remainder 1/63*

(3/7)/(1/63) = 27 remainder 0

The GCF is 1/63.

* The quotient is 28/27 = 1 +1/27 = 1 +(1/27)(3/7)/(3/7) = 1 +(1/63)/(3/7) or 1 with a remainder of 1/63.

<em>Additional comment</em>

3/7 = (1/63) × 27

4/9 = (1/63) × 28

Week 1 2 3 4 5 Water Level (inches) − 1 1 4 1 3 8 2 1 2 − 1 5 8 − 1 3 4 Between which two weeks did the water level change the m

suter [353]

Answer:

The water level change the most in week 3 and week 4

The change = -370 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Week 1 2 3 4 5

Water Level (inches) − 1 1 4 1 3 8 2 1 2 -1 5 8 -1 3 4

To find - Between which two weeks did the water level change the most? Calculate the change .

Proof -

The formula for change in water level with respect to week be-

Rate of Change in Water Level = Difference in water level / Difference in weeks

Now,

For week 1 and week 2

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{138 - 114}{2 - 1}$ = $\frac{24}{1}$ = 24 inches

Now,

For week 1 and week 3

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{212 - 114}{3 - 1}$ = $\frac{98}{2}$ = 49 inches

Now,

For week 1 and week 4

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-158 - 114}{4 - 1}$ = $-\frac{272}{3}$ = -90.67 inches

Now,

For week 1 and week 5

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-134 - 114}{5 - 1}$ = $-\frac{248}{4}$ = -62 inches

Now,

For week 2 and week 3

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{212 - 138}{3 - 2}$ = $\frac{74}{1}$ = 74 inches

Now,

For week 2 and week 4

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-158 - 138}{4 - 2}$ = $-\frac{296}{2}$ = -148 inches

Now,

For week 2 and week 5

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-134 - 138}{5 - 2}$ = $-\frac{272}{3}$ = -90.67 inches

Now,

For week 3 and week 4

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-158 - 212}{4 - 3}$ = $-\frac{370}{1}$ = -370 inches

Now,

For week 3 and week 5

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-134 - 212}{5 - 3}$ = $-\frac{346}{2}$ = 173 inches

Now,

For week 4 and week 5

Rate of change in water level = $\frac{-134 + 158}{5 - 4}$ = $\frac{24}{1}$ = 24 inches

∴ we get

The water level change the most in week 3 and week 4

The change = -370 inches

Note :

The highest change means which temperature goes the most change in water level. It can be negative also.

So, We have to take the modulus and then find the highest number.

Here, 370 > 173

So, Highest change occurs in Week 3 and Week 4 but not in Week 3 and Week 5.

Which graph is not a function ? Why isn’t it ?

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Graph 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph two is not a function because it does not pass "the vertical line test", which is a method of determining if a graph is a function or not. To do this, we use our pen to check that for every x value there is only one y value. In graph two, however, this is not the case.
