18. What is the least common denominator of the following
fractions? 3/10 and 1/4

Answer:

a= 3/11

b = 2/11

Step-by-step explanation:

a(1) + b(4) = 1

a + 4b = 1

a(3) + b(1) = 1

3a + b = 1

b = 1-3a

a + 4(1-3a) = 1

a+ 4-12a = 1

-11a = -3

a = 3/11

b = 1-3(3/11)

b= 2/11

The value of a and b are 3/11 and 2/11 respectively.

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

We have been given that the straight line ax+by=1 passes through the points (1,4)and (3,1).

Thus, the equation of the straight line passing through the point ( 3,1 )

a(3) + b(1) = 1

3a + b = 1

b = 1-3a

Thus, the equation of the straight line passing through the point(1,4)

a(1) + b(4) = 1

a + 4b = 1

Now substitute the value of b;

a + 4(1-3a) = 1

a+ 4-12a = 1

-11a = -3

a = 3/11

Then b = 1-3(3/11)

b= 2/11

Hence, the value of a and b are 3/11 and 2/11 respectively.

Estimation and precision are used when the actual value cannot be easily determined or calculated.

Given that, the length is to be measured to the nearest [tex]\frac 14\ inch[/tex], we have the following observations

So, we have:

[tex]L_1 = 2\frac 14[/tex] --- the length of the abdomen

[tex]L_2 = 4 - 2\frac 14[/tex]

Express as improper fraction

[tex]L_2 = 4 - \frac{9}{4}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]L_2 = \frac{16 - 9}{4}[/tex]

[tex]L_2 = \frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Express as proper fraction

[tex]L_2 = 1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] --- the length of the thorax

The number of times (n) the abdomen is longer than the thorax is calculated as follows:

[tex]n = L_1 \div L_2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]n = 2\frac 14 \div 1\frac 34[/tex]

Express as improper fractions

[tex]n = \frac 94 \div \frac 74[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]n = \frac 94 \times \frac 47[/tex]

[tex]n = \frac 97[/tex]

Express as proper fractions

[tex]n = 1\frac 27[/tex]

Hence, the abdomen is [tex]1\frac 27[/tex] times longer than the thorax

Answer:

-2/5 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 ( x-2) = 4x

Multiply each side by 3/2

3/2 * 2/3 (x-2) = 3/2 *4x

x-2 = 6x

Subtract x from each side

x-2-x = 6x-x

-2 = 5x

Divide each side by 5

-2/5 = 5x/5

-2/5 =x

x=−  2/5=−0.4 is the answer please mark brainliest

Answer:

m∠A = 65°

Step-by-step explanation:

Because ∠CBD is congruent to ∠DBE, we can set the degree values equal to each other.

So

CBD has x + 10, DBE has 60. So:

x + 10 = 60

Subtract 10 from both sides.

x = 50

Check:

50 + 10 = 60

60 = 60

m∠A = (x + 5)° = (60 + 5)° = 65°

The measure of m<A if angle CBD = angle DBE is 55°

The point where two lines meet is known as an angle.

We are given the following from the diagram:

m<CBD = x +10

m<DBE = 60degrees

Since  angle CBD = angle DBE, then:

x + 10 = 60

x = 60 - 10

x = 50degrees

Get the angle A.

From the diagram, angle A = (x+5)°

m<A = 50 + 5

m<A = 55°

Hence the measure of m<A is 55°

Answer: 2.8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Train A: time= t, v=45mi/hr, d= d

Train B: time t, v= 55mi/hr, d=280-d

Distance = v times t (d=vt)

t = d/v (time for both trains is the same, so t=t)

Train A: t=d/45

Train B: t=(280-d)/55

d/45 = (280-d)/55 (cross multiplication)

55d = 15400-45d

55d+45d = 15400

100d = 15400

d = 154 miles (280miles - 154miles = 126 miles)

Train A travel 154 mi and train B travel 126 mi

Train A travel 154 miles in 2.8 hrs.

Train B travel 126 miles in 2.8 hrs.

154 miles at a rate of 55mi/h = 2.8 hours and

126 miles at a rate of 45mi/h = 2.8 hr.

I believe this is the expression:

[tex] \displaystyle \large \boxed{ - 8 {y}^{2} }[/tex]

Since we want to evaluate it when y = -2, simply substitute y = -2 in the expression.

[tex] \displaystyle \large{ - 8 {( - 2)}^{2} }[/tex]

Any negative number squared will result in positive, refer below:

[tex] \displaystyle \large{ {( - a)}^{2} = {a}^{2} } \\ \displaystyle \large{ {( - 2)}^{2} = {2}^{2} } \longrightarrow \boxed{4} \\ [/tex]

Hence,

[tex] \displaystyle \large{ - 8(4) = - 8 \times 4} \\ \displaystyle \large \boxed{ -32}[/tex]

Answer:

-32

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace the variable y with -2 in the expression giving -8(-2)^2

Then, square -2 giving us (positive) 4

Lastly, multiply -8 with 4 and get -32 as our answer

The required sum of the arithmetic progression is 441.

Arithmetic progression is the series of numbers that have common differences between adjacent values

Geometric progression is a sequence of series whose ratio with adjacent values remains the same.

Here,
45 + 46 + 47 . . . . . . 54
About sequence is an arithmetic sequence with,
First term a = 45
common difference d = 1
last term l = 54
Number of terms = 45 - 54 = 9

The required sum of the arithmetic progression can be given as,
s = n / 2 * ( 2a + (n - 1) d )
s = 9 / 2 * (2 * 45 + 8 * 1)
s = 9 / 2 * (98)
s = 9 *49
s = 441

Thus, the required sum of the arithmetic progression is 441.

Answer:

y = 2(x + 3)² - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x² + 1 2x + 14

Move the constant  (14) to the left side

y - 14 = 2x² + 12x

Now factor out 'a' , the coefficient  of  x² term

y - 14= 2(x² + 6x)

Divide the coefficient  of 'x' by 2 ⇒ 6/2 = 3

Find the square of '3' and add it to x² + 6x   ⇒ x² + 6x + 9

Multiply the square of 3 and add it to y - 14; 9*2 = 18

y- 14  = 2(x² + 6x + 9)

y  - 14 + 18 = 2(x² + 6x + 9)

y + 4 = 2(x² + 6x +9)

y + 4 = 2(x + 3)²

y = 2(x + 3)² - 4
