For certain positive integers a and b, 2/A+1/B=13/15. What is A+B

=====================================================

Explanation:

Simplify the left hand side to get

Compare the denominators AB and 15.

If AB = 15, then we could have,

Through trial and error, the only solution is A = 3 and B = 5 because 2B+A = 2*5+3 = 10+3 = 13 to match the numerator on the right hand side.

Therefore, A+B = 3+5 = 8

x² + 3x + 7 = 0       [ax² + bx + c]

a = 1

b = 3

c = 7

quadratic formula:

    (+/- is this ±)

plug in the numbers into the variables

your answer is a

dilation scale factor 2: starting with δabc, draw the dilation image of the triangle with a center at the origin and a scale factor of two. notice that every coordinate of the original triangle has been multiplied by the scale factor (x2). dilation with scale factor 2, multiply by 2.
