A fruit salad recipe calls for 3/4 pound of apples and 2/5 pound of dates. What is the least common denominator of the fractions?

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

A fruit salad recipe calls for [tex]\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] pound of apples and [tex]\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex] pound of dates.

To find:

The least common denominator of the fractions.

Solution:

The given fractions are:

[tex]\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] and [tex]\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]

The denominators of these fractions are 4 and 5 respectively.

Factor form of 4 is 2×2.

5 is a prime number, so factor form of 5 is 5×1.

Now, the least common denominator of the fractions is:

[tex]LCD=2\times 2\times 5[/tex]

[tex]LCD=20[/tex]

Therefore, the least common denominator of the fractions is 20.

Ahmed doubled his savings, then deposited another hundred dollars. Let s represent the amount he originally had in savings. Which shows an expression to represent his current amount and the current value of his account if s = 80?
StartFraction s Over 2 EndFraction + 100; when s = 80 the latest balance of Ahmed’s savings is $140
2 s + 100; when s = 80 the latest balance of Ahmed’s savings is $260
s squared + 80; when s = 80 the latest balance of Ahmed’s savings is $6,480
s squared + 100; when s = 80 the latest balance of Ahmed’s savings is $6,500

Answers

Answer:

B. 2s + 100 when s=80 the latest balance of Ahmed’s savings is $260

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the savings = $s and current amount  $c.

Now, Ahmed has doubled his savings. This means that the new savings = $2s

Also, he had deposited $100.

So, the current amount of Ahmed is given by c = 2s + 100.

Moreover, if the savings is $80 i.e. s = 80, the current amount is,

c = 2 × 80 + 100

i.e. c = 160 + 100

i.e. c = 260

So, the current amount if savings is $80 is $260.

Hence, the expression for current amount is 2s + 100 and if s = 80, the current amount is $260.

need help question 15

Answers

Answer:

To divide by (x+1) in synthetic division, you divide by -1.

-1    1   -7   4   12

         -1    8   -12

—————————-

     1   -8   12   0

This gives us x^2 -8x +12x  which factors to (x-2) (x-6).  We still have the factor of (x+1)  so the zeros will be 2, 6, and -1.

Angles equation for geometry.

Answers

Answer:

40 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have the diameter included in the triangle, the angle at B is 90

This is because angle at center is two times the angle at the circumference

Since we have the diameter, the angle at the center will be 180 degrees so the angle A at the circumference will be 90 degrees

Now, let us use the measure of the arc given

The angle at C is half of 100 which makes it 50

This is according to an angle arc relationship

Lastly, the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees

We already have two angles and we need the last

so we have to add what we have already and subtract from 180 to get the angle we are looking for

So we have the angle as 180-(90 + 50) = 180 -140 = 40

Answer:

2 AND -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

domain: all real numbers except 2 and -10; x-intercept: 4; y-intercept:  1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain consists of the set of all possible values x can be. In a fraction, the denominator cannot be equal to 0. We can solve for the values x cannot be equal to by factoring and exclude them out of the domain once we’ve found them:

To factor x^2 + 8x - 20, we are looking for two numbers that have a product of -20 and a sum of 8. These two numbers are 10 and -2. So, it can be factored to:

(x + 10)(x -2) not equal 0

So x ≠ 2 and x ≠ -10.

To find the x-intercept, the value of y would be zero. We can substitute y as 0 to get:

0 = (x - 4) / x^2 + 8x - 20

The only way for this fraction to equal 0, is for the numerator to be 0. We get the equation:

x - 4 = 0,

And x = 4

To find the y-intercept, the value of x would be 0. We can substitute x with 0 to get:

y = -4 / -20 = 1/5

These answers align with the second option.

Denise build two seawall to keep rising the water from her house. The first is 8.75 meter long. The second is 37.5 percent longer than the fist. How long is the second seawall?

Answers

Answer:

12.0 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

The first is 8.75 meters long

Let us find 37.5% of  8.75

=37.5/100*8.75

=0.375*8.75

=3.28125

Hence the Second seawall is

=3.28125+8.75

=12.0 meters

describe fully the single transformation that takes shape p onto shape q

Answers

Answer:

The single transformation that takes shape 'p' onto shape 'q' is a dilation by a scale factor of 3 with the center point (1, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the vertices of shape ΔP are;

A(2, 3), B(2, 1), C(3, 1)

The length AB = 3 - 1 = 2

The length CB = 3 - 2 = 1

∴ The length AC = √(2² + 1²) = √5

The coordinates of the vertices of shape ΔQ are;

A'(4, 9), B'(4, 3), C'(7, 3)

The length A'B' = 9 - 3 = 6

The length C'B' = 7 - 3 = 3

∴ The length A'C' = √(6² + 3²) = √(45) = 3·√5

∴ Figure Q ΔA'B'C' is a dilation of figure P ΔABC by a scale factor of A'B'/AB = 6/2 = 3

The distance of point B(2, 1) from the point (1, 0) = √((2 - 1)² + 1²) = √2

The distance of point B'(4, 3) from the point (1, 0) = √((4 - 1)² + 3²) = 3·√2

Therefore, the distances of points on figure Q from (1, 0) = 3 × the distances of points on figure from (1, 0)

Therefore, figure 'Q' can be obtained from figure 'P' by a dilation of figure 'P' by a scale factor of 3 with the center of dilation at point (1, 0).

A jar contains 2 orange, 4 green, 2 white and 2 black balls. What is the probability of drawing an orange ball without putting it back, then drawing a black ball? (write your answer as a simplified fraction)

Answers

Answer:

2/45

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that:

A jar contains 2 orange, 4 green, 2 white and 2 black balls.

The total number of balls in the jar is calculated as:

2 orange balls + 4 green balls + 2 white balls + 2 black balls = 10 balls

The probability of drawing an orange ball = P(Orange) = 2/10

The probability of drawing a black ball = P(Black) = 2/10

Therefore, the probability of drawing an orange ball without putting it back, then drawing a black ball is calculated as:

2/10 × 2/9 = 4/90

= 2/45

For left tailed test

Answer:

x = 2

z = 118

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle with a measure of 118° and the angle labeled "x" are vertical angles

As we know, vertical angles are congruent

Thus, because x's vertical angle equals 118° x also equals 118°

The angle with a measure of 118° and the angle labeled by the expression ( 12x + 38 ) are supplementary angles

Supplementary angles add up to equal 180

Thus, 12x + 38 + 118 = 180

                         ^Note that this is the equation we will use to solve for x

12x + 38 + 118 = 180

step 1 combine like terms

118 + 38 = 156

we now have 12x + 156 = 180

step 2 subtract 156 from each side

156 - 156 cancels out

180 - 156 = 24

we now have 24 = 12x

step 3 divide each side by 12

12x / 12 = x

24 / 12 = 2

we're left with x = 2

Answer:

The answer is C at 8.1.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find [tex]\sqrt{66}[/tex], start by finding the two consecutive perfect squares that 66 lies between them. The two perfect squares are 64 ([tex]8^{2}[/tex]) and 81 ([tex]9^{2}[/tex]). So, the whole number part of the square root of 66 will be 8.

Now, for the decimal part, use the following formula:

(Given number - Smaller perfect square) / (Greater perfect square - Smaller perfect square)

Then, put in the known information, which will look like:

(66 - 64)/(81 - 64) = 2/17 = 0.117

Finally, [tex]\sqrt{66}[/tex] is 8.117, so the answer is C at 8.1.

Answer:

16.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is defined by the formula: the number of desirable outcomes over the total outcomes. The total number of outcomes is the sum of all shoes that he could possibly pick:

5 + 7 + 1 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 2 + 3 = 36

And the desirable outcomes are those where he picks brown boots, which is 6 outcomes.

Using the formula for probability, we get the expression: 6/36 to represent the probability. It simplifies to 1/6 which is about 16.7%
