I ate 3/12 of a carton of 12 eggs. My brother ate 1/12 more than I did. What fraction of the cartoon of eggs did we eat in all

Answers

Answer 1

You ate 3/12 of the carton of 12 eggs, which simplifies to 1/4.

Your brother ate 1/12 more than you, which means he ate:

1/4 + 1/12 = 3/12 + 1/12 = 4/12

Simplifying 4/12 gives 1/3.

So, you ate 1/4 of the carton of eggs and your brother ate 1/3 of the carton of eggs. To find out how much of the carton was eaten in total, we need to add these two fractions. However, we can't add them directly because they have different denominators.

To add fractions with different denominators, we need to find a common denominator. In this case, the smallest common multiple of 4 and 3 is 12. We can convert the fractions to have a denominator of 12:

1/4 = 3/12

1/3 = 4/12

Now we can add them:

3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12

Therefore, you and your brother ate 7/12 of the carton of eggs in total.

Which is the best first step when solving the following system of equations?
5C+40= 10
3C+2d=16

Answers

Answer:

multiply the second equation by - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5c + 4d = 10 → (1)

3c + 2d = 16 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate d

- 6c - 4d = - 32 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate d

- c + 0 = - 22

- c = - 22 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

c = 22

Substitute c = 22 into either of the 2 equations and solve for d

Substituting into (2)

3(22) + 2d = 16

66 + 2d = 16 ( subtract 66 from both sides )

2d = - 50 ( divide both sides by 2 )

d = - 25

solution is c = 22, d = - 25

-2 would be your answer

prove that the polynomials are nonnegative a^2-2ab+b^2+c^2

Answers

Answer:

a2 + b2 + c2 - ab - bc - ca

= (1/2)(2a2 + 2b2 + 2c2 - 2ab - 2bc - 2ca)

= (1/2)(a2 - 2ab + b2 + b2 - 2bc + c2 + c2 - 2ca + a2)

= (1/2)[(a-b)2 + (b-c)2 + (c-a)2]

Now we know that, the square of a number is always greater than or equal to zero.

Hence, (1/2)[(a-b)2 + (b-c)2 + (c-a)2] ≥ 0 => it is always non-negative.

To prove this equation non-negative, you will have to convert the equation in terms of perfect square form containing a,b and c.

Now,
a²+b²+c²-ab-bc-ca
= ½ • ( 2a²+2b²+2c²-2ab-2bc -2ca )
= ½ • ( a² -2ab +b² +b² -2bc +c² +c² -2ac +a² )
= ½ • { (a-b)² + (b-c)² + (c-a)² }

For any value of a,b,c
(a-b)² ≥ 0,
(b-c)² ≥ 0,
(c-a)² ≥ 0,

So,
a²+b²+c²-ab-bc-ca = ½ • { (a-b)² + (b-c)² + (c-a)² } ≥ 0 i.e. Non-negative [ proved ]

84,000 of food for 80 soldiers for 60 days How long would the food last 20 more soldiers joined​

Answers

Answer:

If 20 more soldiers join it would last 48 days

Step-by-step explanation:

if 80 soldiers need 84000 food for 60 days it means that in 60 days one soldier eats 84000/80= 1050 each

then 1050/60=17.5 meaning they need 17.5 food a day each,

adding 20 soldiers means 80+20= 100 soldiers

100*17.5=1750 food is eaten every day

84000/1750= 48 which means that 100 soldiers will eat 84000 in 48 days

LCM = 12

1/2*6/6 = 6/12

3/4*3/3 = 9/12

8/12 , 10/12 , 6/12 , 9/12

Ascending order of ( 8/12 , 10/12 , 6/12 , 9/12)
