What are the steps involved in multiplying/ dividing rational expressions??

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Multiplication:

Step 1: Factor both the numerator and the denominator.

Step 2: Write as one fraction.  Write it as a product of the factors of the numerators over the product of the factors of the denominators. DO NOT multiply anything out at this point.

Step 3: Simplify the rational expression.

Step 4: Multiply any remaining factors in the numerator and/or denominator.

Division:

Step 1: Completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions.

Step 2: Change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal.

Step 3: Cancel or reduce the fractions. Remember that to reduce fractions; you can cancel something in the numerator with something in the denominator, but in order to cancel something in the numerator and denominator the two factors must be EXACTLY the same.

Step 4: Rewrite the remaining factor. Notice that you do NOT need to actually multiply anything in the numerator or denominator.

At a summer camp the campers can choose one of three programmes: camp craft, water sports or hiking. During the first week of camp the campers chose the programmes in the ratio 7:5:8. During the second week of camp the same number of campers chose the programmes in the ratio 7:6:4. Did more campers choose the camp craft programme in the first or second week? How many more?

Answers

Answer: Second week

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

In first week, campers choose programmes in the ratio of [tex]7:5:8[/tex]

In second week, this ratio becomes [tex]7:6:4[/tex]

Suppose 100 campers Joined the camp

Number of hikers who choose camp craft in first week are

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{7}{7+5+8}\times 100=\dfrac{7}{20}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow 35[/tex]

Number of hikers who choose camp craft in second week are

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{7}{7+6+4}\times 100=\dfrac{7}{17}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow 41.17\approx 41[/tex]

Therefore, in second week more campers take part in camp craft.

If 100 campers take part then, 6 more campers takes part in camp craft.

What are the solutions to the system of equations?

{y=2x²−6x+3
{y=x−2

Answers

Answer:

x = 1, y = −1

x = 5/2, y = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

y = 2x² − 6x + 3 ........ (1)

y = x − 2 ...... (2)

We can obtain the solutions to the equation as follow:

y = 2x² − 6x + 3 ........ (1)

y = x − 2 ...... (2)

Substitute the value of y in equation 2 into equation 1

y = 2x² − 6x + 3

y = x − 2

2x² − 6x + 3 = x − 2

Rearrange

2x² − 6x − x + 3 + 2 = 0

2x² − 7x + 5 = 0

Solve by factorization

Obtain the product of 2x² and 5. The result is 10x².

Find two factors of 10x² such that their sum will result to −7x.

The factors are −2x and −5x.

Replace −7x in the equation above with −2x and −5x as shown below:

2x² − 2x − 5x + 5 = 0

2x(x − 1) − 5(x − 1) = 0

(x − 1)(2x − 5) = 0

x − 1 = 0 or 2x − 5 = 0

x = 1 or 2x = 5

x = 1 or x = 5/2

Substitute the value of x into equation 2 to obtain y

y = x − 2

x = 1

y = 1 − 2

y = −1

x = 5/2

y = x − 2

y = 5/2 − 2

y = (5 − 4)/2

y = 1/2

SUMMARY:

x = 1, y = −1

x = 5/2, y = 1/2

B. I. Angle CBF + Angle BFG = 180 (Co interior angles)

What is the minimum possible value of $x$

Answers

Correct question is;

Ten people are sitting in a row, and each is thinking of a negative integer no smaller than −15. Each person subtracts, from his own number, the number of the person sitting to his right (the rightmost person does nothing). Because he has nothing else to do, the rightmost person observes that all the differences were positive. Let x be the greatest integer owned by one of the 10 people at the beginning. What is the minimum possible value of x?

Answer:

Minimum possible value of x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 10 people and the rightmost person observes that all the differences from the subtraction or positive.

What this implies is that the person on the far left side of the row will have the largest number which from the quewis denoted as x.

Thus, we can say that the person sitting to the far right end on the row will have the smallest integer.

Since we want to minimize x, and for the fact that we are told that each is thinking of a negative integer no smaller than −15, then we will have to make the rightmost person have an integer of -15.

Since there are 9 people remaining on the row, thus, we add 9 to -15 to get the integer of the person for the leftmost person which will be the minimum he will have.

Thus;

-15 + 9 = -6

What describes the correct way to convert minutes to an hour

Answers

Answer:

Yo mean correct way??

yo can divide minute by 60 to convert minute into hour

For example

To convert 10 minute into hour. then we should divide 10 by 60. 10/60

Answer:

In any conversion you have to establish  ratios (or rates) for the different units being converted.

The process will be performed by a series of multiplications that will cancel out the "unwanted" units.

multiplication by one (1) does not change the value in an equation.

you have to multiply by a "series of ones" that take into account the units being converted..

for example  

1 minute/60 seconds   or  1 inch = 2.54 cm   or  1 day = 24 hours

in your problem you have minutes... lets say you have 100 minutes

100 minutes * 1 hour             minutes cancel and you have  100/60 = 1 [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] hrs

wo large tanks A and B are each partially filled with 100 gallons of salt water. Initially,80 pounds of salt is dissolved in the solution in tank A, and 30pounds of salt is dissolvedin the solution in tank B. The system is closed so that the wellstirred saline solution ispumped only between tanks A and B. The saline solution in tankA travels to tank Balong a pipe at the rate of 3 gallons per minute, and the salinesolution in B travels totank A at the rate of 2 gallons per minute. Write a system of IVPs that will describe theamount of salt,x1, in tank A at timetand the amount of salt,x2in tank B at timet.

Answers

At the start, it's given that x₁ (0) = 80 lb and x₂ (0) = 30 lb.

The amounts of salt in either tank change according to

dx₁/dt = (2 gal/min) (x₂/(100 - t ) lb/gal) - (3 gal/min) (x₁/(100 + t ) lb/gal)

dx₂/dt = (3 gal/min) (x₁/(100 + t ) lb/gal) - (2 gal/min) (x₂/(100 - t ) lb/gal)

To break this down a bit, consider tank A, for instance:

• solution flows in from B at a rate of 2 gal/min

• the volume of liquid in tank B after t minutes is

100 gal + (2 gal/min - 3 gal/min) (t min) = (100 - t ) gal

because the tank starts with 100 gallons of liquid, and 2 gallons are pumped in while 3 gal are pumped out each minute

• at any time t, the solution in B contains x₂ pounds of salt

• the concentration of the solution in A is then x₂/(100 - t ) lb/gal

• multiplying this by the inflow rate tells you how much salt is moving around each minute

Answers

Answer:

Step 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Concepts:

When solving any expression or equation, we must go through the order of operations. The order of operations is a set of rules that tell us which operation we must do first. The set of rules is often represented by the acronym PEMDAS, which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction.

Solving:

Let's go through the order of operations to solve the expression, so we can see the mistake in the steps.

(24 + 3 + 10) - 14 + 2

1. Add 24 and 3 together

(24 + 3 + 10) - 14 + 2(27 + 10) - 14 + 2

2. Add 27 and 10 together

(27 + 10) - 14 + 2(37) - 14 + 237 - 14 + 2

3. Subtract 14 from 37

37 - 14 + 223 + 2

4. Add 23 and 2 together

23 + 225

Now, let's compare these steps to the ones given.

There's a mistake in Step 1 because 24 and 3 was divided instead of added; 24 + 3 = 27, not 8.
