This problem is simply asking us to add the weights which are presented as fractions. You can easily get the answer if you input them directly in a calculator. But I think the challenge here is to manually add fractions.
Let's add the two 1/4 lb weights because it is easier for they have a common denominator. Just simply add the numerators.
1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4
Then, add with this the fraction part of 2 1/5.
2/4 + 1/5 = ?
The least common denominator is 4*5 = 20. Then divide 20 with each denominator and multiply to their respective numerator.
2/4 + 1/5 = [(20/4 * 2) + (20/5 *1)]/20 = 14/20
14/20 is simplified to 7/10. Then add the whole number 2. <em>Therefore, the sum of all weights is 2 7/10 pounds.</em>
A linear equation of the form :
y = mx+b
can have at the most ONE x-intercept and at the most ONE y-intercept
I can conclude that this linear equation DOESN'T pass through the origin (O) and that it intercepts the x-axis as well as the y-axis
Answer:
The first four.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 3 main postulates. SSS, SAS, and AAS. This simply refers to how we prove a triangle congruent. With SSS, all 3 sides must be congruent (either proven or given). AAS is when you have 2 angles congruent with a side next to one of the angles. NOT IN BETWEEN (there's an image as to what I'm talking about below). Finally, SAS. This is when you have a set of angles congruent with sides on each side congruent as well (look at the first four as an example of this.
Any more specific questions, feel free to ask!
Answer : No, the new type of letter wouldn't be considered as a success because its response rate (2.71%) is lower than the average response rate which is 4%.
Hope this helps. - M
