They cannot be simplified

Answer:

No, none of these can be simplified

Step-by-step explanation:

Each one of these factions have a prime number in it, so therefore, you cannot simplify any of them. Prime numbers are numbers that only have 2 factors, one and itself. So, you can't simplify any of them.

Here's why:

If you take 3/4, you can't simplify because 3 is prime. 4 is NOT prime, but to reduce, you have to be able to find a GCF, or a greatest common factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will ASSUME you want the derivative with respect to "t" of the equation

f'(t) = 3t² - kt⁻²          which can also be     3t² - k/t²

Find radiuses of circles, if OO1=20cm and 3AK=2BK

Answers

Answer:

radius of smaller circle on the left =  8 centimetersradius of larger circle on the right =  12 centimeters

=============================================================

Explanation:

The letter O looks very similar to the number zero, so I'm going to use other letters to avoid confusion. For the smaller circle on the left, it'll have center P. The circle on the right will have center Q. See the diagram below.

Based on that, we can say that PQ = 20 cm.

Let x = length of PK

PK + KQ = PQ

KQ = PQ - PK

KQ = 20 - x

We'll keep this in mind for later. I'll refer to this as "Fact 1" when it does come up later.

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

We're given this equation

3AK=2BK

Let's get the numbers to one side and the letters to the other side like so:

3AK=2BK

3AK/BK = 2

AK/BK = 2/3

We'll use this later as well.  I'll refer to this as "Fact 2" when it does come up later.

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

Next, draw a segment from P to A to form triangle PAK (also shown in the diagram below). Do the same for points Q and B to form triangle QBK.

The segments PA and PK are radii of the smaller circle, so PA = PK which leads to triangle PAK being isosceles. Triangle QBK is also isosceles for similar reasoning.

The angles AKP and QKB are vertical angles, so they are congruent.

The facts mentioned so far boil down to the two triangles being similar triangles (use the angle angle method to prove).

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

Now that we know the triangles are similar, we can use a proportion to solve for x.

PK/KQ = AK/KB

PK/KQ = 2/3  .... use fact 2

x/(20-x) = 2/3 .... use fact 1

3x = 2(20-x) .... cross multiply

3x = 40 - 2x

3x+2x = 40

5x = 40

x = 40/5

x = 8

So,

PK = x = 8KQ = 20-x = 20-8 = 12

The radius of the smaller circle on the left is 8 cm.

The radius of the larger circle on the right is 12 cm.

Oscar and Kim have $22.00 each to spend at a book fair, where all students receive a 30% discount. They both want to purchase a copy of the same book, which normally sells for $28.50 plus 10% sales tax. To check if he has enough to purchase the book, Oscar takes 30% of $28.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. He takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount. Kim takes 70% of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% of the reduced price. Is Oscar correct? Is Kim correct? Do they have enough money to purchase the book? Explain your answer using complete sentences, and show your work.




HELLLP ME PLS QUICK

Answers

Answer:

Both Oscar and Kim will have enough to purchase the book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Oscar takes 30% of the normal price and subtracts it from the normal price. Out of 100% price he takes 30% so the result is: 100-30%= 70% of the normal price. Oscar's first step has the same result as Kim.

Oscar takes 10% of the discounted price (70%) and adds it back. The price will become 70% + 10%*70%= 77% of original price. Kim multiplies the discounted price with 110%, so the price will be: 70% * 110%= 77%. Both also give the same result.

The final price is 77% of the original, it will be: $28.50* 77%= $21.945

Oscar :

28.50 - 0.30(28.50) = 28.50 - 8.55 = 19.95

0.10(19.95) + 19.95 = 2 + 19.95 = 21.95

Kim :

0.7(28.50) = 19.95

1.10(19.95) = 21.95

Answer:

Both Oscar and Kim got the same amount and they both had enough money to buy the book.

Given that,

Oscar and Kim have money to spend at a book fair = $22

Discount for all the students = 30% = 0.30

They both want to purchase a copy of the same book, which normally sells for $28.50 plus 10% sales tax.

Book normally sells for = $ 28.50 + 10% sales tax

According to the question,

Oscar takes 30% of $28.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. He takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount.

28.50 - 0.30(28.50) = 28.50 - 8.55 = 19.95

0.10(19.95) + 19.95 = 2 + 19.95 = $21.95

Kim takes 70% = 0.7 of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% = 1.10 of the reduced price.

0.7(28.50) = 19.95

1.10(19.95) = $21.95

Hence, Both Oscar and Kim got the same amount and they both had enough money to buy the book.

If x = (1/2)(16 - 8y), then x =

Answers

Answer:

x = 8 - 4y

Step-by-step explanation:

16/2 = 8

8y/2 = 4y

The value of x of the expression is x = 8 - 4y.

What is an expression?

An expression is a way of writing a statement with more than two variables or numbers with operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Example: 2 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

We have,

x = (1/2)(16 - 8y)

Removing the parenthesis.

x = 16/2 - 8y/2

x = 8 - 4y

Thus,

The value of x is 8 - 4y.

Um.... Wouldn't angle 1 just be 180-17 which is 163. Angle 3 would be equal to angle 1 so also 163. Angle 4 and angle 2 are equal to 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

angle1 = 163°

angle2 = given in diagram

angle 3 = alternating angle 1, so 163°

angle 4 = alternating angle 2, so 17°

Step-by-step explanation:

noticing that the two lines intercept each other at the centre, making angles going around that interception point add up to 360° (you can use this information to check the answers).

an angle on a straight line is always 180°, so given that angle2 is 17°, you can already do 180 - 17 to get an easy answer to angle 1 and 3.

I need help bad. It's about finding angles and I can't really figure it out.

Answers

Answer:  41 degrees

=========================================================

Explanation:

Angle BFE is 117 degrees. The adjacent angle to this (angle BFA) is 180-117 = 63 degrees since the two angles form a straight line, and must add to 180.

Now because BD is parallel to AE, we know that the alternate interior angles BFA and FBD are the same measure. This makes angle FBD to be 63 degrees.

We're told that segment BF bisects angle ABD. That indicates the two smaller pieces (angles ABF and FBD) are the same measure. Both are 63 degrees in this case.

Let x be the measure of angle DBC. This angle will add to angles ABF and FBD to form a 180 degree straight angle

(angleABF) + (angleFBD) + (angleDBC) = 180

(63) + (63) + (x) = 180

x+126 = 180

x = 180-126

x = 54

Angle DBC is 54 degrees.

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

The last set of steps has us focus on triangle BCD. The three angles of any triangle always add to 180.

B+C+D = 180

54 + 85 + D = 180

139 + D = 180

D = 180-139

D = 41

Angle CDB is 41 degrees, and so is angle CEA as they are corresponding angles. Corresponding angles are congruent when we have parallel lines like this.

Therefore, angle E is 41 degrees.

The diagram is below showing all of the angles we found.

The mother is really tall (T) and the allele for this particular trait is dominant to the short (t) gene. The fathers phenotype is short (t). What will the genotype and phenotype percentages be for the the F1 generation? (hint: there may be more than one possible answer).

Answers

If tall is completely dominant over short, then the mother's genotype is either TT or Tt. The father is short so his genotype is tt.

Crossing TT with tt produces only heterzygous offspring with genotype Tt. Then the genotypic and phenotypic ratios are 0 TT : 1 Tt : 0 tt and 1 tall : 0 short, respectively. As percentages, these would

• geno:   0% TT : 100% Tt : 0% tt

• pheno:   100% tall : 0% short

Crossing Tt with tt on the other hand produces offspring with genotype either Tt or tt with equal probability, so that the geno and pheno ratios are 0 TT : 1 Tt : 1 tt and 1 tall : 1 short. As percentages,

• geno:    0% TT : 50% Tt : 50% tt

• pheno:   50% tall : 50% short

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 is more than 25% (1/4) but is less than 66% (2/3) making the order 1/4 3/8 2/3.

Answer:

The answer is the 3rd option. (1/4, 3/8, 2/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

All u have to do is find a common denominator for all 3 fractions.

The common denominator in this problem would be 24

So lets convert all the fractions with a denominator of 24.

1/4 = 6/24

3/8 = 9/24

2/3 = 16/24

Since we now converted the fractions with a common denominator, we can deduce the order from least to greatest.

6/24, 9/24, then 16/24

In other words, the answer is the 3rd option. (1/4, 2/8, and 2/4)

10. Saul works two part-time jobs. Last week, he worked 14 hours at a shoe store, and 19
hours as a telemarketer. His total pay was $240.30. The week before, he made
$300.00 for 19 hours at the shoe store and 22 hours telemarketing. Find his hourly
wage for each job

Answers

Answer:

shoe store $7.80/hour

telemarketer: $6.90/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = hourly salary at the shoe store.

Let t = hourly salary as a telemarketer.

14s + 19t = 240.3

19s + 22t = 300

Multiply both sides of the first equation by 19. Multiply both sides of the second equation by -14. Then add them.

         266s + 361t = 4565.7

(+)     -266s - 308t = -4200

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

                       53t = 365.7

t = 6.9

Substitute 6.9 for t in the first equation and solve for s.

14s + 19(6.9) = 240.3

14s + 131.1 = 240.3

14s = 109.2

s = 7.8

Answer:

shoe store $7.80/hour

telemarketer: $6.90/hour
