why do you add them instead of multiplying them

The rational expressions that sum to  [tex]\frac{2x+3}{(x+3)(x-5)} = \frac{2x}{(x+3)(x-5)} + \frac{3}{(x+3)(x-5)}[/tex]

The given expression is:

[tex]\frac{2x+3}{x^2-2x-15}[/tex]

Factorize the denominator

[tex]x^2-2x-15\\x^2-5x+3x-15\\x(x-5)+3(x-5)\\(x+3)(x-5)[/tex]

The given expression therefore becomes:

[tex]\frac{2x+3}{(x+3)(x-5)}[/tex]

This can be split into the sum:

Answer:

5539

Step-by-step explanation:

You should conclude that the number in the thousands place and the one in the 100s place are the same.

x * 1000 + x * 100 + y + x + 4

So you could sum the digits as

3x + y + 4 = 19   Subtract 4 from both sides

3x +  y = 15

x can be six           That means y = 1 which is OK

x can be five          That means y = 3 which is OK

Now we run into a little grief. Can x be 4? No

x cannot be 4          that would mean that y = 19 - 12 = 7 The tens digit is too big.

Come to think of it, x cannot be 6 because then the units digit will be 10 -- not possible.

So the answer is

1000*5 + 100*5 + 10*3 + 9

5539 is the answer.

We want to find a 4-digit number that meets some given conditions. We will find two, which are:

4438 and 5509

A general 4-digit number can be written as:

a*1000 + b*100 + c*10 + d

Where a, b, c, and d are single-digit numbers.

a is the thousands digit

b is the hundreds digit

c is the tens digit

d is the units digit.

Here we know that:

"the value of the digit in the thousands place is 10 times greater than the value of the digit in the hundreds place."

So the first term is 10 times the second term, this means that:

(a*1000) = 10*(b*100)

a*1000 = b*1000

a = b

-the least (the smaller one) digit is in the tens place.

so:

c < a, b, d

- The sun of the digits is 19.

So:

a + b + c+ d = 19

-The digit in the ones place is 4 more than the digit in the hundreds place.

so:

d = b + 4

Now we can rewrite all of these conditions as:

Using the first one, we can replace all the b's by a's in the other conditions, so we have:

Now we can use the third equation and replace it in the second one to get:

2a + c + d = 19

2a + c + (a + 4) = 19

3a + c + 4 = 19

3a + c = 19 - 4

3a + c = 15

Now we need to remember that:

c < a.

So we can try with different values of a.

For example, if a = 3, then:

3*3 + c = 15

9 + c = 15

c = 15 - 9 = 6

here we have c > a, so we can discard this.

If a = 4, then:

3*4 + c = 15

12 + c = 15

c = 15 - 12 = 3

c < a

From this we can construct our number:

a = b = 4

c = 3

d = b + 4 = 4 + 4 = 8

Then the number is:

4438

If a = 5, then:

3*5 + c = 15

15 + c = 15

c = 15 - 15 = 0

c < a

So we also can have:

a = b = 5

c = 0

d = b + 4 = 9

Such that the number is:

5509

And if a is equal to or larger than 6 we have problems, because

3*6 + c = 15

18 + c =15

c = 15 -18 = -3

And c can't be a be a negative number.

So we can conclude that we found two 4-digit numbers that meet all the conditions, and these are:

4438 and 5509

Read each number from top to bottom. Each digit is in base 20, and as I pointed out in another question of yours, 1 bar = 5, 1 dot = 1, and disk = 0.

(47) Only 1 digit here, with 2 bars and 4 dots. So this is 14.

(49) 3 digits, in order from top to bottom: 19, 0, 6. So this number is

[19]06₂₀ = 19×20² + 0×20¹ + 6×20⁰ = 7606

(51) 3 digits: 8, 8, 8.

888₂₀ = 8×20² + 8×20¹ + 8×20⁰ = 3368

(53) 4 digits: 2, 0, 0, 11.

200[11]₂₀ = 2×20³ + 0×20² + 0×20¹ + 11×20⁰ = 16011

(55) 4 digits: 10, 10, 0, 10.

[10][10]0[10]₂₀ = 10×20³ + 10×20² + 0×20¹ + 10×20⁰ = 84010

(57) 6 digits: 5, 10, 0, 6, 2, 3.

5[10]0623₂₀ = 5×20⁵ + 10×20⁴ + 0×20³ + 6×20² + 2×20¹ + 3×20⁰ = 17602443

(59) 6 digits: 10, 5, 0, 0, 11, 4.

[10]500[11]4₂₀ = 10×20⁵ + 5×20⁴ + 0×20³ + 0×20² + 11×20¹ + 4×20⁰ = 32800224

Answer:

80 cm / 180 cm / 120 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the smallest common multiple of 3, 4 and 2 is 12.

so, to be able to truly compare these fractions we need to bring all denominators to .../12.

1/3 = 4/12

3/4 = 9/12

1/2 = 6/12

in total we have therefore 19 (4+9+6) equally large parts of the ribbon that are then combined :

4 parts for the first segment.

9 parts for the second segment

6 parts for the third segment.

so, one part is

380 cm / 19 = 20 cm

therefore the first segment of the ribbon is

4×20 = 80 cm long

the second segment

9×20 = 180 cm long

the third segment

6×20 = 120 cm long

Answer:

60/125 which can be reduced to 12/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Gina wins

2/5 * 2/5 = 4/25

3/5 * 2*5 * 2/5 = 12 /125

2/5 * 3/5 * 2/5 = 12/125

Fred Wins

3/5 * 3/5 = 9/25

2/5 * 3/5 * 3/5 = 18/125

3/5 * 2/5 * 3/5 = 18/125

P(3 sets) = (18 + 18 + 12 + 12)/125 = 60/125

P(2 sets) = (20 + 45)/125 = 65/125

I found the probability of 2 sets so I could add the results together to see if the probability totals 1. It does. This question is done correctly.

Answer:

Jerry, Antonio, Jenny

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can represent the numbers as fractions, make them have one common denominator, and go from there

First, we can represent these as fractions:

Jenny:

four-fifths = 4/5

Antonio:

seven-eighths = 7/8

Jerry:

three-fourths = 3/4

Next, we can find the lowest common multiple. We can do this by listing the multiples of each number until something is in common for all 3

4:

4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28 ,32, 36, 40, 44, 48

8:

8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64

5:

5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60

One number that is in common is 40.

Our next step is to find out what we need to multiply each number by to equal 40. We can do this via division.

4:

40/4 = 10

8:

40/8 = 5

5:

40/5 = 8

Next, we can multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number, essentially multiplying it by 1. For example, 4/5 * 5/5 = 20/25, which is still equal to 4/5 because 5/5 = 1 and multiplying any number by 1 keeps it the same.

3/4 * 10/10 = 30/40

7/8 * 5/5 = 35/40

4/5 * 8/8 = 32/40

We can see that 3/4 (Jerry) is the lowest, 7/8 (Antonio) is the highest, and 4/5 (Jenny) is in the middle
