-5/6,-4/3 which is greater

Mathematics

Georgia [21]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

-5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out which one is greater, we need to convert them so they have a common denominator:

You can do this two ways, because 6 is a multiple of 3, we can just multiply the second fraction by 2:

\frac{-4}{3} \\ x 2 = \frac{-8}{6} \\

\frac{-5}{6}

The second way is multiplying both the fractions so they have a common denominator.

\frac{-5}{6} = \frac{-15}{18}

\frac{-4}{3} = \frac{-24}{18}

Because the numbers are negative, -15 is the greater number.

Therefore, \frac{-5}{6} is the greater fraction.

Which equation are true for x=-2 and x=2 check all that apply
ki77a [65]
1 it is true
{x}^{2} - 4 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} = + 4 \\ x = \sqrt{4} = 2
2 it's not true
{x}^{2} = - 4
3 it's not true
3 {x}^{2} + 12 = 0 \\ 3 {x}^{2} = - 12 \\ {x}^{2} = \frac{ - 12}{3} = - 4 \\
4 it's true
4 {x}^{2} = 16 \\ {x}^{2} = \frac{16}{4} = 4 \\ x = \sqrt{4} = 2
5- it's true
{2(x - 2)}^{2} = 0 \\ {(x - 2)}^{2} = 0 \\ x - 2 = 0 \\ x = 2

Solve 9x^2- 17x- 85 = 0 Give your solutions correct to 3 significant figures.​
dybincka [34]

Answer:

x =\frac{17}{18} +\frac{1}{18} \sqrt{3349} OR x =\frac{17}{18} +\frac{-1}{18} \sqrt{3349}

Step-by-step explanation:

9x2−17x−85=0

For this equation: a=9, b=-17, c=-85

9x2+−17x+−85=0

Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=9, b=-17, c=-85.

x =\frac{-b + \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

x  =\frac{-(-17)+\sqrt{(-17)^{2} -4(9)(-85)} }{2(9)}

x =\frac{17}{18} +\frac{-1}{18} \sqrt{3349}

Find an equation of the line described. Store the equation in slop-intercept form when possible.
Finger [1]

Answer:

Y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The line needs to be parallel to the y-axis, which means it forms a 90° angle with the y-axis. This means the line we are looking for is a straight horizontal line. The line must pass through the point (-7, -5), but we can disregard the x value since we figured out that the line is perfecly horizontal, so it has no x value. The answer we are left with is y = -5, which is a horizontal line across -5 on the y axis.

Hopefully you can understand my explanation :)
