Evaluate 1 1/3 + 2 2/5

3 11/15

Step-by-step explanation:

the 1/3 and 2/5 cannot be added properly, so we must make the denominator the same for both sides. So we make it fifteen.

The new equation is: 1 5/15 + 2 6/15.

1 5/15 + 2 6/15 = 3 11/15.

hope this helps :)

step-by-step explanation:

you divide the denominator by the numerator on both sides and if the quotients are equal then the fractions are equivalent

answer: integers are just whole numbers: positive, negative, and zero.

i = {-∞, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ∞}

let x = 1st integer

let y = 2nd integer

x = 3y + 17   {equation 1}

xy = -24         {equation 2}

substitute 3y+17 in place of x n equation 2

and solve for y.

(3y+17)y = -24

3y2 + 17y = -24

3y2 + 17y + 24 = 0

from quadratic equation:

y = [-17±√(172-4(3)(24))]/(2(3))

y = (-17 ±√1)/6

y = (-17+1)/6   or     y = (-17-1)/6

y = -16/6           or     y = -18/6

y = -2 2/3         or   y = -3

since we are dealing with

y = -3

x = 3y+17 = -9+17 = 8

the integers are -3, 8
