Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction
3.1 Adding a whole to a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 3 as the denominator :
a a • 3
a = — = —————
1 3
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
1 + a • 3 3a + 1

Prime Factors 3 4 12
Least Common Multiple:

Calculating Multipliers :
4.2 Calculate multipliers for the two fractions
Denote the Least Common Multiple by L.C.M
Denote the Left Multiplier by Left_M
Denote the Right Multiplier by Right_M
Denote the Left Deniminator by L_Deno
Denote the Right Multiplier by R_Deno
Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 4
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 3
Making Equivalent Fractions :
4.3 Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions
Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.
For example : 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent, y/(y+1)2 and (y2+y)/(y+1)3 are equivalent as well.
To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.
L. Mult. • L. Num. (3a+1) • 4
—————————————————— = ——————————
L.C.M 12
R. Mult. • R. Num. 5 • 3
—————————————————— = —————

When a fraction equals zero :
5.1 When a fraction equals zero ...
Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.
Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.
Here's how:
12a-11
—————— • 12 = 0 • 12
12
Now, on the left hand side, the 12 cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.
The equation now takes the shape :
12a-11 = 0
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
5.2 Solve : 12a-11 = 0
Add 11 to both sides of the equation :
12a = 11
Divide both sides of the equation by 12:
a = 11/12 = 0.917
a = 11/12 = 0.917
Answer:
11/12
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to subtract 5/4 minus 1/3 but you cant so you have to find the greatest denominator first which would be 12 because 3x4=12.
Since you multiplied 4x 3 to get 12 then you will multiply the 5 by 3 and the 1 by 4 to get this -> 5/4= 15/12 1/3= 4/12
Then subtract 15/12- 4/12= 11/12
a=11/12
Proxima Centauri, our nearest star except for the sun, is about 4·1013 km from Earth. Find to one decimal place its distance in parsecs.
Step-by-step explanation:
The conversion for parsecs into meters is
1 parsec (pc) = [tex]3.09×10^{16}\:\text {m}[/tex]
So if Proxima Centauri is [tex]4×10^{13}\:\text{m}[/tex] away, then in terms of parsecs, this distance is
[tex]4×10^{13}\:\text{m}×\left(\dfrac{1\:\text{parsec}}{3.09×10^{16}\:\text{m}}\right)[/tex]
[tex]\;\;\;\;\;= 1.2×10^{-3}\:\text{parsec}[/tex]

What is the difference between (2.4x10^8) and (9.2x10^6)
Answer:
2.308×10^8
Step-by-step explanation:
Your calculator can tell you what the difference is.
2.4×10^8 -9.2×10^6 = (2.4 -0.092)×10^8 = 2.308×10^8

Historically, 48% of people have rented their residence. A random sample of 500 people is taken. 260 of them rent (as oppose to own) their residence. A researcher is studying the claim that the percentage of people renting has increased. Compute the value of the test statistic for this hypothesis test. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
Answer:
1.79
Step-by-step explanation:
^p = x/n
= 260/500
= 0.52
z = p1-p2 / √^p(1-p)/n
= 0.52 - 0.48 / √0.48x(1-0.48)/500

what is the perimeter of khgj?
Answer:
58 in
Step-by-step explanation:
The fact that the rectangles are congruent means both have a length of 18 in and a width of 11 in. The perimeter is ...
P = 2(L +W)
P = 2(18 in + 11 in) = 2(29 in)
P = 58 in
The perimeter of KHGJ is 58 inches.

Answer:
19/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the distance from point $A\left(15,-21\right)$ to the line $5x+2y\ =\ 4$ . Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
The distance from point (15,-21) to the line 5x + 2y = 4 is 27.5 units
Given the coordinate (15, -21) and the line 5x + 2y = 4
In order to get the point on the line 5x + 2y =4, we can a point on the line
Let x = 0
5(0) + 2y = 4
2y = 4
y = 2
The point (0, 2) is on the line.
Find the distance between the point (15, -21) and (0, 2) using the distance formula
[tex]D=\sqrt{(2+21)^2+(0-15)^2} \\D=\sqrt{23^2+15^2}\\D=\sqrt{754}\\D= 27.46units[/tex]
Hence the distance from point (15,-21) to the line 5x + 2y = 4 is 27.5 units

What is the sum of all positive integers n ≤ 20 that satisfy the condition that if n is odd, then n is a multiple of 5? I will give brainliest for the correct answer AND explanation (It is not 20)
The sum of all positive integers that satisfy the condition as described is; 100
The number set of n is therefore;
n = {1, 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20}.
According to the question;
If n is odd, then n is a multiple of 5.The data set therefore includes all odd numbers; This is so because the question says; if n is odd; then n is a multiple of 5.
The sum of all positive integers that satisfy the condition is therefore;
1 + 3 +5 +7 + 9 +11 +13 +15 +17 +19 = 100.Read more:

Suppose Set A contains 19 elements and Set B contains 69 elements. If the total number elements
in either Set A or Set B is 75, how many elements do Sets A and B have in common?
B u A = 48
B = 45
The part of set B not included in A is B - A∩B = 45 - 7 = 38
Since B u A = 48, A must have 48-38 = 10 elements (3 exclusive of B, 7 shared with B).
------
Alternatively, the inclusion-exclusion principle may be used: A + B - (A ∩ B) = A u B
A + 45 - 7 = 48
A = 48 - 45 + 7
A = 10
NOTE that I'm using A and B to indicate the number of elements in each set, respectively.
More formally, one would write |A| and |B| to indicate the cardinality (number of elements) of the set.

These tables of ordered pairs represent some points on the graphs of lines s and t.
Which system of equations is represented by lines s and t?
5x−2y=−157x+4y=20
3x+5y=−185x−9y=25
x+4y=−89x−y=21
2x−y=−142x+y=6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Line s
slope m = Δy / Δx = (22 - 4) / (4 - (-5)) = 18/9 = 2
y = mx + b
22 = 2(4) + b
b = 14
y = 2x + 14
which can be rearranged to
2x - y = -14
Line t
slope = ( -4 - 14) / (5 - (-4)) = -18/9 = -2
-4 = (-2)(5) + b
b = 6
y = -2x + 6
2x + y = 6
2x − y = −14 2x + y = 6
