The given fractions are,
[tex]\frac{x^2}{2x-1},\text{ }\frac{x+1}{x+13}[/tex]The LCD of fractions is the least common multiple of the denominators.
So, the LCD of the above fractions is,
[tex](2x-1)(x+13)[/tex]Multiplying the numerator and the denominator of the fraction by a common term does not change the fraction.
So, the first fraction can be expressed in terms of the LCD as,

10. Linek is graphed below. Write an equation for line m that is perpendicular to line (there are multiple correct answers).
step 1
Find the equation of line k
the slope of line k is
m=-3/4 ------> previous answer
step 2
If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal
so
the slope of the line m must be equal to
m=4/3
I will assume a point (3,4)
Find the equation in slope intercept form
y=mx+b
we have
m=4/3
point (3,4)
substitute
4=(4/3)*(3)+b
solve for b
4=4+b
b=0
therefore
y=(4/3)x -----> equation in slope intercept form ( this line is perpendicular to line k)Find the equation in point slope form
y-y1=m(x-x1)
we have
m=4/3
point (3,4)
substitute
y-4=(4/3)*(x-3) -----> equation in point slope form ( this line is perpendicular to line k)Find the equation in standard form
Ax+By=C
where
A is a positive integer
B and C are integers
we have
y=(4/3)x
Multiply by 3 both sides

Part BNow you’ll attempt to copy your original triangle using two of its angles:Choose two of the angles on ∆ABC, and locate the line segment between them. Draw a new line segment, DE¯, parallel to the line segment you located on ∆ABC. You can draw DE¯ of any length and place it anywhere on the coordinate plane, but not on top of ∆ABC.From points D and E, create an angle of the same size as the angles you chose on ∆ABC. Then draw a ray from D and a ray from E through the angles such that the rays intersect. You should now have two angles that are congruent to the angles you chose on ∆ABC.Label the point of intersection of the two rays F, and draw ∆DEF by creating a polygon through points D, E, and F.Take a screenshot of your results, save it, and insert the image in the space below.

m/cour16121/quizzes/2919544/take22A totem pole casts a shadow 45 feet long at the same time that a 6-foot-tallmancasts a shadow that is 3 feet long. Find the height of the totem pole.Height of the totemfeetHint: set a proportion like this oneshadow totemshadow manactual height totem actual height manucation
The totem pole with its shadow form a right triangle, and the same happens with the man and its shadow. Since it happens at the same time of the day, the "inclination" of the sunlight is the same for both, and those two triangles are similar, which means that their corresponding ratiso betweens sides are the same.
Using the hint given on the problem, we can estabilish the following equation for the height of the totem(let's call it h).
[tex]\frac{45}{h}=\frac{3}{6}[/tex]Now, we just need to solve for h.
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{45}{h}=\frac{3}{6} \\ \frac{45}{h}=\frac{1}{2} \\ \frac{h}{45}=2 \\ h=2\cdot45 \\ h=90 \end{gathered}[/tex]The height of the totem pole is 90 ft.
During a hurricane evacuation from the east coast of Georgia, a family traveled 200 miles west. For part of the trip, they averaged 60 mph, but as the congestion got bad, they had to slow to 10 mph. If the total time ct travel was 6 hours, how many miles did they drive at the reduced speed?
Given:
Total distanced traveled is 200 miles.
speed is 60 mph, but as the congestion got bad, they had to slow to 10 mph.
Time = 6 hours.
Let, x be the travel time at 60 mph
The equation is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 60x+10(6-x)=200 \\ 60x+60-10x=200 \\ 50x=200-60 \\ 50x=140 \\ x=\frac{140}{50} \\ x=2.8 \end{gathered}[/tex]It mean at the speed of 60 mph, the distance traveled is,
[tex]60x=60(2.8)=168\text{ miles}[/tex]So, the distance traveled for the speed of 10 mph is,
[tex]200-168=32\text{ miles.}[/tex]Answer: The family traveled 32 miles at reduced speed.

The table gives a set of outcomes and their probabilities. Let A be the event "the outcom less than or equal to 2". Let B be the event "the outcome is a divisor of 3". Find P(AB). Outcome Probability 1 0.2 2 0.6 3 0.2
Given the table:
Outcome Probability
1 0.2
2 0.6
3 0.2
Let A be the event "the outcome less than or equal to 2.
Let B be the event "the outcome is a divisor of 3.
Let's find P(A ∩ B).
To find P(A ∩ B) let's first find P(A) and P(B).
Numbers less than or equal to 2 = 2 and 1
Outcomes less than or equal to 2 = P(2) or P(1)
Probability the outcome is less than or equal to 2 = P(A) = 0.2 + 0.6 = 0.8
Divisor of 3 = 1 and 3
Outcome is a divisor of 3 = P(1) and P(3)
Probability the outcome is a divisor of 3 = P(B) = 0.2 x 0.2 = 0.04
To find P(A ∩ B), we have:
P(A ∩ B) = P(A) x P(B) = 0.04 x 0.8 = 0.032

Every week Ben collects a few pounds of paper to recycle. The graph below shows the total number of pounds of paper(y) that Ben collected in a certain amount of time (x), in weeks:
To obtain the amount of paper that would most likely be collected in 10 weeks, the following steps are necessary:
Step 1: Select two points that lie on the straight line and use the two points to derive the equation of the straight line, as follows:
Such two points could be: (x1, y1) = (0, 30) and (x2, y2) = (120, 3)
Using the following formula, we can derive the equation of the straight line:
[tex]\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]Thus:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ \Rightarrow\frac{y-30_{}}{x-0_{}}=\frac{120_{}-30_{}}{3_{}-0_{}} \\ \Rightarrow\frac{y-30_{}}{x_{}}=\frac{90_{}}{3_{}_{}} \\ \Rightarrow\frac{y-30_{}}{x_{}}=30 \\ \Rightarrow y-30=30\times x \\ \Rightarrow y=30x+30 \end{gathered}[/tex]The above equation can be re-written as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=30x+30 \\ \Rightarrow\text{Amount of paper collected = 30 }\times number\text{ of w}eeks\text{ + 30 } \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 2: Use the derived equation to obtain the value of the amount of paper collected in 10 weeks, as follows:
In 10 weeks, we will have :
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Amount of paper collected = 30 }\times number\text{ of w}eeks\text{ + 30 } \\ \Rightarrow\text{Amount of paper collected = 30 }\times10\text{ + 30 } \\ \Rightarrow\text{Amount of paper collected = 300 + 30 }=330 \\ \Rightarrow\text{Amount of paper collected = 3}30 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the amount of paper that would most likely be collected in 10 weeks is 330

(Round up to the nearest integer.)
(Round up to the nearest integer.)
The required sample sizes for the confidence intervals are given as follows:
a) Estimate of 38%: 566.
b) No estimate: 601.
How to obtain the required sample sizes?The margin of error for a confidence interval of proportions, using the z-distribution, is calculated as follows:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
The parameters of the equation are listed as follows:
[tex]\pi[/tex] is the sample proportion, which is also the estimate of the parameter.z is the critical value.n is the sample size.The desired margin of error in this problem is of:
M = 0.04.
The confidence level is of 95%, hence the critical value z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.96.
For item a, the estimate is of [tex]\pi = 0.38[/tex], hence the sample size is obtained as follows:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.38(0.62)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.38(0.62)}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.38(0.62)}}{0.04}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.38(0.62)}}{0.04}\right)^2[/tex]
n = 566.
For item b, when there is no estimate, we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex], hence:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}}{0.04}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.5(0.5)}}{0.04}\right)^2[/tex]
n = 601.
