What number should be added to 7/12 to get 4/15?​

Mathematics

DENIUS [597]2 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number = x.

We are trying to find out what number (x) we would need to add to 7/12 to get 4/15

\frac{7}{12}  + x = \frac{4}{15}

Subtract 7/12 from both sides.

x = \frac{4}{15}  - \frac{7}{12}

We need to make the denominators of the fractions the same.

\frac{4}{15}  = \frac{16}{60}

\frac{7}{12}  = \frac{35}{60}

So,

x = \frac{16}{60}  - \frac{35}{60}  = -  \frac{19}{60}

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Decrease in temperature = 4.6714°C

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the formula fro deflection is:

δ = PL/AE + LαΔT

As deflection is equal to zero in this case, the formula becomes

ΔT = -P/αAE   -------------- equation (1)

Now,

we see that only vertical force acting is weight

W = mg = 100*9.81

W = 981N = ∑F_{y}                                  where 1N = 1kgm/s²

Now,

for horizontal forces

As we know that, Sum of all horizontal forces = 0

P - μN = 0

P - μW = 0

P = μW

P = 0.6 * 981

P = 588.8N or 589N

Now we need to calculate the area

area = width * thickness = 20 * 3

area = 60 mm²

Now by substituting all these values in equation 1, wee get

ΔT = -P/αAE = - 588.6/(20*10⁻⁶*60*10⁻⁶*105*10⁹)

ΔT = - 4.6714°C (negative sign indicates decrease)

Pedro has created the function f(x)= 4x-3/2 to represent the number of assingments he has completed where x represents the numbe
Law Incorporation [45]
The given function is
f(x) = 4x - 3/2
where
f(x) = number of assignments completed
x =  number of weeks required to complete the assignments

We want to find f⁻¹ (30) as an estimate of the number of weeks required to complete 30 assignments.
The procedure is as follows:

1. Set y = f(x)
   y = 4x - 3/2

2. Exchange x and y
   x = 4y - 3/2

3. Solve for y
   4y = x + 3/2
   y = (x +3/2)/4

4. Set y equal to f⁻¹ (x)
  f⁻¹ (x) = (x + 3/2)/4

5. Find f⁻¹ (30)
  f⁻¹ (30) = (30 + 3/2)/4 = 63/8 = 8 (approxmately)

Answer:
Pedro needs about 8 weeks to complete 30 assignments.

Today, John ran 15 miles in 2 hours and 30 minutes. He wants to represent the relationship between the distance he ran, in miles
jeyben [28]

Answer:

d = 6t

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, lets change the 2 hours and 30 minutes to 2.5 hours, you could devide the time in minutes by 60 to get that number 2[hours]+(\frac{30}{60})[minutes to hours] = 2.5Hours.

Anyway, John ran 15 miles in 2.5 hours which means he ran (15÷2.5) in one hour which is equal to 6miles per hour. That means if you multiply the hours he ran by 6 you will get the miles he ran.

So the answer would be:

d = 6t
