How do you find the greatest common denominator, when comparing two numbers? Explain your thought process, in the example I provided. What is the greatest common Denominator for the numbers 20 and 40. Explain each step you do. Your answer will start with these words. "How to find the the greatest common denominator between 20 and 40?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

20 is the greatest common denominator. You can find this by listing the factors of each number. The highest number that can fit into both individual numbers is the common denominator. Since 40 is just 20 doubled, and 20 is just 20 once, it fits into both numbers and is also the highest number that can fit.

What value of x makes this proportion true? x/6=36/24 O A. 8 O B. 9 O C. 18 O D. 7​

Answers

Answer:

B. 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions are just like fractions and to figure them out sometimes you can use simplification in different forms.

[tex]\frac{x}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{36}{24}[/tex]

Now to get to 6, 24 had to be divided by 4...in proportions and fractions usually, the top and bottom are both simplified or proportioned to the same number or scale

36 ÷ 4 = 9

Check your answer by inserting it there to see if it works

9*4 = 36            6*4 = 24

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf B. \ 9}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given this proportion:

[tex]\frac {x}{6}=\frac{36}{24}[/tex]

We want to solve for x, so we must isolate the variable using inverse operations.

It is being divided by 6. The inverse of division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides of the proportion by 6.

[tex]6*\frac {x}{6}=\frac{36}{24}*6[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{36}{24}*6[/tex]

[tex]x=1.5*6 \\x=9[/tex]

Another way to solve is with cross multiplication. Multiply the first numerator by the second denominator, then the first denominator by the second numerator.

[tex]\frac { x}{6}=\frac{36}{24}[/tex]

[tex]24*x=6*36[/tex]

[tex]24x=216[/tex]

The variable is being multiplied by 24. The inverse of multiplication is division, so we divide both sides of the equation by 24.

[tex]24x/24=216/24\\x=9[/tex]

The value of x that makes this proportion true is 9.

4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

I just did this lesson and i just guessed, but i got it wrong and it said the answer was 4.5. basically, you multiply the fractions and the number value first,(like 1/6 X 0) and you do that to all of them. and then you add up all your answers, simplify them and put it in decimal form. and you get 4.5. hopefully that made enough sense.

If the sin 90º = 1, then which statement is true? ​

Answers

Answer:

cos 0° = 1, because the cosine and sine are complements

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the formula: sin 0 = cos (90°- 0) or cos 0 = sin (90°- 0)

So it would be: cos 0° = sin (90° - 0°) = sin 90° = 1

Libby can finish a paper in 2 hours. Ethan can finish the same paper in 4 hours. How
long will it take them to finish a paper if they work together?

Answers

Answer:

1.33333 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Time taken by Libby = 2 hours

Time taken by Ethan = 4 hours

rate = 1 / time taken

Libby's rate = 1 /2

Ethan's rate = 1/4

Combined rate = Libby's rate + Ethan's rate

Combined rate = 1/2 + 1/4 = 3/4

Time taken = 1 / combined rate

Time taken = 1 / (3/4)

Time taken = 4 /3

Time taken = 1.33333 hours

Solve the following exponential equations

Answers

Answer:

x = 2, y = - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)

note that 36 = 6² , then

[tex]6^{x}[/tex] = 6²

Since bases on both sides are equal then equate the exponents

x = 2

------------------------------------------

(2)

Using the rule of exponents

[tex](a^m)^{n}[/tex] = [tex]a^{mn}[/tex]

note that 25 = 5² , then

[tex]25^{11+3y}[/tex] = [tex](5^2)^{11+3y}[/tex] = [tex]5^{22+6y}[/tex]

Then

[tex]5^{5y-3}[/tex] = [tex]5^{22+6y}[/tex]

Since bases on both sides are equal then equate the exponents

22 + 6y = 5y - 3 ( subtract 5y from both sides )

22 + y = - 3 ( subtract 22 from both sides )

y = - 25

Use the graph of the function f(x) - (x + 1)2 + 2. Identify the vertex and
the axis of symmetry.

Answers

Answer:

x = –1 AND (-1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry is x = –1

and the vertex is (-1,2)

i know this because the graph is on -1, 2

and I also took the quiz hope it helps ;)

The vertex of the function is (-1, 2).

The axis of symmetry of the function is -1.

What is a function?

function is a relationship between inputs where each input is related to exactly one output.

Example:

f(x) = 2x + 1

f(1) = 2 + 1 = 3

f(2) = 2 x 2 + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

The outputs of the functions are 3 and 5

The inputs of the function are 1 and 2.

We have,

f(x) = (x + 1)² + 2

f(x) = x² + 2x + 1 + 2

f(x) = x² + 2x + 3

Now it is in the form of ax² + bx + c

a = 1

b = 2

c = 3

The coordinate of the Vertex of the function is (-b/2a, f(x)) = (x, y)

-b/2a = -2/2 = -1

f(x) = (-1)² + 2 x (-1) + 3 = 1 - 2 + 3 = 4 - 2 = 2

Vertex = (-1, 2)

The axis of symmetry is the x-coordinate of the vertex.

= -1.

Thus,

Vertex is (-1, 2).

The axis of symmetry is -1.

Well if you dont, just know that it's not 100% risk, they can help you too. Are all of the rewards worth it? It is time to find out.Its common knowledge that GPS can find and use your location for many things such as finding your destination, speed, ect. Ect. But do you know how they do it? GPS systems use multiple satellites to track your location to make many things easy for you like we mentioned previously. A GPS tracking system uses the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) network. This network incorporates a range of satellites that use microwave signals that are transmitted to GPS devices to give information on location Knowing all of this can help you figure out where your phone is if you lost it.If you are ever in danger and call the police, they can use your GPS to find your location if you are ever unable to locate where you are. This can save many lives. GPS is also important to figure out where you are needing to go when it comes to vehicular travel. Many cars nowadays even have screens in them so you can connect your phones GPS to it, further highlighting the importance of the GPS.However with the GPS, its not all sunshine and rainbows. Yes it can help you get out of an emergency, but it can be the thing that causes it in the first place. GPS is something that could be taken easily from someone who knows what they are doing, making you vulnerable to cyber attacks. If someone knows this information, they can figure out so much about you. So GPS can be dangerous to have.In conclusion, GPS systems can be very helpful to the point where you feel like you need them, and even if you do not, there are many amounts of benefits to using them, from knowing where you are to being able to find lost items across the planet. yet there are still some risks when using them. Everything uses gps now and it is astonishing how little people truly know about them when they should. At least accounting for the huge amount it is used in anyone's day to day life.
