Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The expression is

[tex]\dfrac{8}{3}-\dfrac{5}{6}-\dfrac{2}{12}[/tex]

To find:

The expression which is equivalent to the given expression.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]\dfrac{8}{3}-\dfrac{5}{6}-\dfrac{2}{12}[/tex]

It can be written as

[tex]=\dfrac{8}{3}-\dfrac{5}{6}-\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]

Taking LCM, we get

[tex]=\dfrac{16-5-1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{10}{6}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{5}{3}[/tex]

The mixed fraction of this improper fraction is

[tex]=\dfrac{1\times 3+2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]=1\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]

So, the expression [tex]1\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] is equivalent to the given expression.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

the midpoint of the line segment from p 1 p 2 is (- 6, 2) . if p 1 =(-8,2) , what is p 2 ?

Answers

If we have 2 coordinates (x1,y1) and (x2,y2), the midpoint is given by the following equation:

((x1+x2)/2,(y1+y2)/2)

We have the first set of coordinates which is (-8,2) and we have the midpoint which is (-6,2)..

For the x-coordinate:

(-8+x2)/2=-6

-8+x2=-12
x2=-12+8
x2=-4

For the y-coordinate:

(2+y2)/2=2
2+y2=4
y2=2

So the coordinate p2 will be (-4,2)

Find the first four terms of the sequence given by the following.
4,=(-1)".31%, n=1, 2, 3, ...

Answers

Answer:

The first term of the sequence is:

a₁ = -3a₂ = 12a₃ = -27a₄ = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

aₙ = (-1)ⁿ · 3n²

substituting n = 1 to determine the first term

a₁ = (-1)¹ · 3(1)²

a₁ = (-1)¹ · 3(1)²

Applying the exponent rule: [tex]a^1=a[/tex]

a₁ = -1 · 3(1)

a₁ = -1 · 3

a₁ = -3

substituting n = 2 to determine the 2nd term

a₂ = (-1)² · 3(2)²

a₂ = 1 · 3(4)

a₂ = 12

substituting n = 3 to determine the 3rd term

a₃ = (-1)³ · 3(3)²

a₃ = -1 · 3(9)

a₃ = -1 · 27

a₃ = -27

substituting n = 4 to determine the 4th term

a₄ =  (-1)⁴ · 3(4)²

a₄ = 1 · 3(16)

a₄ = 1 · 48

a₄ = 48

Therefore, the first term of the sequence is:

a₁ = -3a₂ = 12a₃ = -27a₄ = 48

1680 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

SO you got the triangle

24*10=240

240/2=120

now we just need to find the area

There is a formula but I think this is easier

So theres a rectangle with a length of 14

So if you think of the triangle as the base, you just need 14 triangles stacked up to make up the volume

So 120*14=1680

So the volume is 1680

This equation shows how Rocky the puppy's weight varies with age.

The variable a represents Rocky's age in months, and the variable p represents Rocky's
weight if pounds. At how many months did Rocky weigh 17 pounds?
O months
Submit

Answers

Answer:

Age of Rocky = 5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Equation for calculating puppy's weight

p = 3a + 2

Here,

p = weight of puppy

a = age in months

We have to find the age if the weight is 17 pounds

Putting p=17 in given equation

17 = 3a + 2

17 - 2 = 3a

3a = 15

Dividing both sides by 3

[tex]\frac{3a}{3}=\frac{15}{3}\\a=5[/tex]

Hence,

Age of Rocky = 5 months
