Answer:

8/40 + 20/40 = 28/40

Step-by-step explanation:

It's about finding the common denominator for the fractions.

we can easily see that 40 is a common denominator for denominators 10 and 4. 20 would work too, but 40 is "instantly seen".

2/10 = (2*4) / (10*4) = 8/40

2/4 = (2*10) / (4*10) = 20/40

8/40 + 20/40 = (8+20) / 40 = 28/40

So you make them the same common denominator
As you see, 2/10 = 8/40
2/4 = x/40, multiply by 10
2/4 = 20/40
Then add because same denominator
Now you would get:
8/40 + 20/40 = 28/40

What is the sum of the first 20 terms of the arithmetic sequence shown? \displaystyle \frac{1}{3} 3 1 , \displaystyle \frac{2}

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$a_1$ = First term = $\dfrac{1}{3}$

$d$ = Common difference = $\dfrac{2}{3}-\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{3}$

$n$ = Number of terms = 20

Sum of arithmetic progression is given by

$S=\dfrac{n}{2}[2a_1+(n-1)d]\\\Rightarrow S=\dfrac{20}{2}\times (2\times \dfrac{1}{3}+(20-1)\dfrac{1}{3})\\\Rightarrow S=70$

The sum of the first 20 terms of the arithmetic sequence is 70.

If the radius of a circle is 3 meters, how long is the arc subtended by an angle measuring 30°?

FromTheMoon [43]

Circumference of entire circle = 2 * PI * radius
2 * PI * 3 = 18.85 meters
a 30 degree arc is (30/360) or 1/12 of a circle.
So the arc equals (18.85 meters / 12) or 1.57 meters.
