What is the "least common denominator" of the following two fractions:

1/6 and 1/2

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

it is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

2 and 6 are the denominators and the least common denominator is the number in which 2 & 6 can go in without leaving a remender and 6 is that number

Answer 2

Answer:

The LCD of the fractions 1/6 and 1/2 is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The LCD of 2 or more fractions is the least common multiple of the denominators.

The given fractions are 1/2 and 1/6. The denominators are 2 and 6

List the multiples of each denominator:

Multiples of 2: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, …

Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, ..

The least common multiple that the two share is 6.

So the LCD of 1/2 and 1/6 is 6.

This is a classic find the vertex of a parabola question.

if this was a calculus class the solution would be to take the derivative and set it equal to zero... -32t+ 105 = 0

BUT i assume that you are not in a calculus class..

so we try plan "B" the  highest (or lowest) point of parabola is it's vertex

the vertex formula is [-b/2a,f(-b/2a)]

in your problem a = -16, b=105, c= 5

so the "X" (TIME) is located at -(105)/(2*-16) = 3.28

plug in 3.28 into -16(3.28)^2 + 105(3.28) + 5 = 177.27

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose a shipment of 400 components contains 68 defective and 332 non-defective computer components . From the shipment you take a random sample of 25. When sampling with replacement (so that the p = probability of success does not change), note that a success in this case is selecting a defective part. The standard deviation of this situation is?

Answers

Answer:

The standard deviation for the number of defective parts in the sample is 1.88.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample is with replacement, which means that the trials are independent, and thus, the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.  

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

68 defective out of 400:

This means that [tex]p = \frac{68}{400} = 0.17[/tex]

From the shipment you take a random sample of 25.

This means that [tex]n = 25[/tex]

Standard deviation for the number of defective parts in the sample:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{25*0.17*0.83} = 1.88[/tex]

The standard deviation for the number of defective parts in the sample is 1.88.

The standard deviation of the situation is 1.88

The proportion of success is calculated as:

[tex]p = \frac xn[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]p = \frac {68}{68 + 332}[/tex]

[tex]p = 0.17[/tex]

The standard deviation is then calculated as:

[tex]\sigma= \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

For a shipment of a random sample of 25, we have:

[tex]\sigma= \sqrt{25 * 0.17 * (1-0.17)}[/tex]

Evaluate the product

[tex]\sigma= \sqrt{3.5275}[/tex]

Evaluate the root

[tex]\sigma= 1.88[/tex]

Hence, the standard deviation of the situation is 1.88

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the angles within the triangle must add up to 180 degrees. So, angle 2 =50

The angles 4,2,5 also equal 180 because they are on the blue line. Since angle 2=50 and angle 5= 55 angle 4 must be 75 which is needed to add up to 180.

Answer:

Angle 4 is 75°

b represent angle 2

d represent angle 4

70+60+b=180

130+b=180

b=50

a person who take 40 paces to cover 20m finds that a square field has a side that is 520 paces long .calculate the length of the side and the area of the field​

Answers

Look at picture for explanation

The area of the square field is 67600 m² and the side is 260 m long.

What is square?

A quadrilateral with all sides equal and all angles are right angles.

Given that, a person takes 40 paces to cover 20 m of a square field according to him the field has a side that is 520 paces long, we need to find the measure of the side and the area,

Since,

40 paces = 20 m

1 pace = 1/2 m

Therefore,

520 paces = 0.5 x 520 m

= 260 m

Therefore, the square field is 260 m long,

Area of the square field = side² = 260²

= 67600 m²

Hence, the area of the square field is 67600 m² and the side is 260 m long.

4b. a_n= n/(a_n-1), a_1 = 6

4c. 1/6, 2/3, 8/3, . . .

Answers

Problem 4a

The instructions are incomplete. You set up the recursive formula, but didn't ask any question about said formula.

I'll assume that your teacher wants you to list out a few terms. I'll list out the first five terms.

The notation a_1 = 4 is the same as writing [tex]a_1 = 4[/tex] where the '1' is a subscript. It tells us that the first term is 4.

The nth term a_n or [tex]a_n[/tex] is defined as such

[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\[/tex]

Notice how if we replaced n with 2, then we get

[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_{2-1})\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_1)\\\\[/tex]

So the second term is directly tied to the first term, or it is dependent on it.

We'll replace a_1 with 4 to get the following

[tex]a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_1)\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + 4)\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + 12/3)\\\\a_2 = 2*(13/3)\\\\a_2 = 26/3\\\\[/tex]

So the second term is 26/3.

As you can guess, the third term is going to be found in a similar fashion

[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + a_{3-1})\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + a_2)\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + 26/3)\\\\a_3 = 2*(27/3)\\\\a_3 = 2*(9)\\\\a_3 = 18\\\\[/tex]

So 18 is the third term.

We'll repeat for n = 4 to get the fourth term.

[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + a_{4-1})\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + a_3)\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + 18)\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + 54/3)\\\\a_4 = 2*(55/3)\\\\a_4 = 110/3\\\\[/tex]

The fourth term is 110/3.

Lastly, we'll plug in n = 5

[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + a_{5-1})\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + a_4)\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + 110/3)\\\\a_5 = 2*(111/3)\\\\a_5 = 2*(37)\\\\a_5 = 74\\\\[/tex]

The fifth term is 74.

Answer: The first five terms are 4, 26/3, 18, 110/3, 74

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

Problem 4b

Again, the instructions are missing. I'll assume the same thing as problem 4a.

[tex]a_1 = 6[/tex] is the first term

Plug n = 2 into the first equation to get

[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{a_{2-1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{a_{1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{6}\\\\a_2 = \frac{1}{3}\\\\[/tex]

The second term is 1/3.

Repeat for n = 3

[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{a_{3-1}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{a_{2}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{1/3}\\\\a_3 = 3\div\frac{1}{3}\\\\a_3 = 3\times\frac{3}{1}\\\\a_3 = 9\\\\[/tex]

The third term is 9

Repeat for n = 4.

[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{a_{4-1}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{a_{3}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{9}\\\\[/tex]

The fourth term is 4/9

Repeat for n = 5

[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{a_{5-1}}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{a_{4}}\\\\a_5 = 5 \div a_{4}\\\\a_5 = 5 \div \frac{4}{9}\\\\a_5 = 5 \times \frac{9}{4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{1} \times \frac{9}{4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5*9}{1*4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{45}{4}\\\\[/tex]

Answer: The first five terms are 6, 1/3, 9, 4/9, 45/4

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

Problem 4c

I'm not much help here for this problem. Not only are the instructions missing, but it's not clear how this sequence is set up. If I had to guess, it's somehow recursively defined. How exactly, I'm not sure. I would ask your teacher for any clarification.

Find all real numbers for which the rational expression is undefined.

Answers

Answer:

x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

For the rational expression, 6x/(x+6) to be undefined, the denominator need to be 0, so x=-6 is the point at which the function is undefined.

The rational expression 6x / (x + 6) is undefined when x equals -6, and it is defined for all other real numbers.

To find the real numbers for which the rational expression 6x / (x + 6) is undefined, we need to identify the values of x that would make the denominator equal to zero. When the denominator is zero, the expression becomes undefined.

In this case, the denominator is (x + 6). Setting the denominator equal to zero, we have:

x + 6 = 0

Solving for x, we subtract 6 from both sides:

x = -6

Therefore, the rational expression 6x / (x + 6) is undefined when x = -6.

When x is equal to -6, the denominator becomes zero, which causes division by zero. Division by zero is undefined in mathematics. Hence, for x = -6, the rational expression is not defined.

For any other real numbers other than x = -6, the expression is defined and can be simplified or evaluated.
