Let's say we want to add 1/2 and 1/3. Since they both have different denominators, first we find the LCD:
[tex]\text{LCD}(2,3)=2\cdot3=6[/tex]Now that we have the LCD, we express the fractions with a common denominator:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{3}{6}+\frac{2}{6}[/tex]Now that we have both fractions with the same denominator, we can add directly the numerators and keep the denominator:
[tex]\frac{3}{6}+\frac{2}{6}=\frac{5}{6}[/tex]We have that 1/2+1/3=5/6. Since 5/6 can't be reduced anymore, we have found the result.
To summarize, the algorithm to solve addition of fraction would be like this:

[tex]\sin 37\degree=\frac{x}{12}[/tex]which statements and reason complete steps 3 , 4 and 6 of the proof ?
Answers
Statement 1:
ΔABC ≅ ΔCBD ≅ ΔACD
Reason: Given
_________________________________
Statement 2:
b/c = y/b; a/x = x/a
Reason: corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional
(we want to have to have in the next statement that b² = cy; a² = cx
and proportionality is usually represented as fractions, if we observe the figure, the fractions of this statement correspond to the division of similar sides of the triangles)
________________________
Statement 3:
b² = cy; a² = cx
Reason: cross product property
(if we multiply both sides of b/c = y/b by b, we obtain b² = cy, and if we do the same for a/x = x/a we obtain a² = cx, since we are multiplying, it is called product, then, the option that best fit this field is cross product property)
_______________________________
Statement 4:
a² + b² = cx + cy
Reason: addition property of equality
(we want to prove that a² + b² = c², from the previous statement we can add both equalities so we obtain a² + b² , which is nearer to the conclusion we want to prove)
____________________
Statement 5:
a² + b² = c(x + y)
Reason: factor
(we find the common factor of cx and cy, it is c, then cx + cy = c(x + y))
___________________________
Statement 6:
c = x + y
Reason: Segment addition postulate
(we almost have the conclusion in the previous statement except for the (x + y) of the right part of the equality, since in the figure we observe that c = x + y, then we can use it to replace (x + y))
___________________________
Statement 7:
a² + b² = c²
Reason: substitution

Suppose a sample of 879 new car buyers is drawn. Of those sampled, 288 preferred foreign over domestic cars. Using the data construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of new car buyers who prefer for foreign cars over domestic cars. Round your answers to three decimal places
Answers
To find the confidence interval for a proportion, we use the following formula:
[tex]Confidence\text{ }interval=p\pm z\cdot\sqrt{\frac{p(p-1)}{n}}[/tex]Where:
p is the sample proportion
z the chosen z-value
n sample size
Since we want to make a confidence interval of 95%, we need to use z = 1.96. The sample size is n = 879.
We can use cross multiplication to find p, which is the percentage of the total sample size that preferred foreign cars:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{879}{288}=\frac{100\%}{x} \\ . \\ x=100\%\cdot\frac{288}{879} \\ . \\ x=32.765\% \end{gathered}[/tex]p is the proportion in decimal, we need to divide by 100:
[tex]p=\frac{32.765}{100}=0.32765[/tex]Now, we can use the formula:
[tex]Confidence\text{ }interval=0.32765\pm1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.32765(1-0.32765)}{879}}=0.32765\pm0.031028[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} Lower\text{ }endpoint=0.32765-0.031028=0.296616 \\ Upper\text{ }endpoint=0.32765+0.031028=0.35867 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the answer is:
Lower endpoint: 0.297
Upper endpoint: 0.359

Answers
Given the function:
[tex]f(x)=x^2+4x-12[/tex]Let's graph the function.
Let's find the following:
• (a). x-intercepts:
The x-intercepts are the points the function crosses the x-axis.
To find the x-intercepts substitute 0 for f(x) and solve for x.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0=x^2+4x-12 \\ \\ x^2+4x-12=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Factor the left side using AC method.
Find a pair of numbers whose sum is 4 and product is -12.
We have:
6 and -2
Hence, we have
[tex]\begin{gathered} (x+6)(x-2)=0 \\ \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Equate the individual factors to zero and solve for x.
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+6=0 \\ Subtract\text{ 6 frm both sides:} \\ x+6-6=0-6 \\ x=-6 \\ \\ \\ x-2=0 \\ Add\text{ 2 to both sides:} \\ x-2+2=0+2 \\ x=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the x-intercepts are:
x = -6 and 2
In point form, the x-intercepts are:
(x, y) ==> (-6, 0) and (2, 0)
• (b). The y-intercept.
The y-intercept is the point the function crosses the y-axis.
Substitute 0 for x and solve f(0) to find the y-intercept:
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(0)=0^2+4(0)-12 \\ \\ f(0)=-12 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the y-intercept is:
y = -12
In point form, the y-intercept is:
(x, y) ==> (0, -12)
• (c). What is the maximum or minimum value?
Since the leading coefficient is positive the graph will have a minimum value.
To find the point where it is minimum, apply the formula:
[tex]x=-\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]Where:
b = 4
a = 1
Thus, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=-\frac{4}{2(1)} \\ \\ x=-\frac{4}{2} \\ \\ x=-2 \end{gathered}[/tex]To find the minimum values, substitute -2 for x and solve for f(-2):
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(-2)=(-2)^2+4(-2)-12 \\ \\ f(-2)=4-8-12 \\ \\ f(-2)=-16 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the minimum value is at:
y = -16
Using the point form, we have the minimum point:
(x, y) ==> (-2, -16).
• (d). Use the points to plot the graph.
We have the points:
(x, y) ==> (-6, 0), (2, 0), (0, -12), (-2, -16)
Plotting the graph using the points, we have:

Answers
We need to find the first five numbers of a sequence determined by the expression:
[tex]12x+6[/tex]Notice that each time we increase the value of x by 1 unit, we add 12 to the previous result. Thus, subsequent terms in the sequnce differ by 12 units.
From the options, the only one with all the terms differing by 12 units is the beginning at x=1:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=1:12(1)+6=18 \\ \\ x=2:12(2)+6=30 \\ \\ x=3:12(3)+6=42 \\ \\ x=4:12(4)+6=54 \\ \\ x=5:12(5)+6=66 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the answer is: C. 18, 30, 42, 54, 66
Height: Suppose you are 5 feet 8 inches tall. Give your height in meters and centimeters.For example, "9'2" = 2.8 meters = 2 meters and 80 centimeters."You are meters andcentimeters.
Answers
Height is 5 feet 8 inches.
1 feet is 12 inches. So,
(5*12) + 8 = 68 inches
Now, let's convert to meters.
We know:
1 inch = 0.0254 meters
So, 68 inches would be:
68 * 0.0254 = 1.7272 meters
We would need to convert the fractional part (excess of 1, which is 0.7272) to cm.
We know:
1 m = 100 cm
So,
0.7272 m is:
0.7272 * 100 = 72.72 cm
Hence,

The original function is f(x) = 4x - 12...
to find the inverse function, we need to solve it for x:
f(x) = 4x - 12
f(x) + 12 = 4x
(f(x) + 12)/ 4 = x
f(x)/4 + 3 = x

Which inequality represents all values of x for which the quotient below is defined? (Division)
Answers
We want to calculate the following quotient
[tex]\frac{\sqrt[]{28(x-1)}}{\sqrt[]{8x^2}}[/tex]Note that using properties of radicals, given non zero numbers a,b we have that
[tex]\frac{\sqrt[]{a}}{\sqrt[]{b}}=\sqrt[]{\frac{a}{b}}[/tex]So, using this fact, our quotient becomes
[tex]\sqrt[]{\frac{28(x-1)}{8x^2}}[/tex]As we are taking the square root, this opearation is only valid if and only if the expression inside the square root is a non negative number. That is, we must have that
[tex]\frac{28(x-1)}{8x^2}\ge0[/tex]As this is a quotient, we should also that the quotient is defined.
To understand this last point, we should make sure that we are not dividing by 0. So first, we want to exclude those value s of 0 for which the denominator becomes 0. So we have the following auxiliary equation
[tex]8x^2=0[/tex]which implies that x=0.
So, the second quotient is always defined whenever x is different from 0. However, assuming that x is not 0 we want to find the value of x for which
[tex]\frac{28(x-1)}{8x^2}\ge0[/tex]To start with this problem, we solve first the equality. So we have
[tex]\frac{28(x-1)}{8x^2}=0[/tex]since x is not 0, we can multiply both sides by 8x², so we get
[tex]28(x-1)=0\cdot8x^2=0[/tex]If we divide both sides by 28, we have that
[tex]x-1=\frac{0}{28}=0[/tex]now, by adding 1 on both sides we get that
[tex]x=1[/tex]so, whenever x=1, we have that the quotient inside the radical becomes 0.
Now, we will solve the inequality, that is
[tex]\frac{28(x-1)}{8x^2}>0[/tex]Note that on the left, we are mostly dividing two expressions. Recall that the quotient of two expressions is positive if and only if both expressions have the same sign.
Note that the expression
[tex]8x^2[/tex]is the product of number 8 (which is positive) with the expression x², which is also always positive for any value of x. This means that the expression 8x² is always positive.
So, taking this into account, we should focus on those values of x for which the numerator is positive, as the denominator is always positive. So we end up with the following inequality
[tex]28(x-1)>0[/tex]If we divide both sides by 28 we get
[tex]x-1>\frac{0}{28}=0[/tex]So, if we add 1 on both sides, we get
[tex]x>1[/tex]So, whenever x is greater than 1, the expression inside the radical is positive.
This means that the original quotient is defined whenever x=1 and whenever x>1. Thus, we would have
