<h3>Answer:</h3>

Divide like you normally would, the result will be the same as positive-number-quotients, but the quotient will be negative.

<h3>Example:</h3>

10 ÷ -5

<em>since 5 is the dividend, 5 goes into 10 two times but note that it's negative two because of the negative division logic.</em>

= -2

Hi again here's the picture

pshichka [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

D = diameter of semicircular part = 42 m

L = Length of straight part = 110 m

Now, let's find the perimeter:

= 2 ( length of semi-circle + length of straight part )

$= 2( \frac{\pi \: d}{2} + l)$

Plug the values

$= 2( \frac{3.14 \times 42}{2} + 110)$

Calculate the product

$= 2( \frac{131.88}{2} + 110)$

Divide

$= 2 (65.94 + 110)$

Calculate the sum

$= 2 \times 175.94$

Calculate

$= 351.88 \: m$

Hope this helps..

Best regards!!

Natali [406]

Answer:

The mean perimeter of frame = 38 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

By perimeter of a rectangle, the formula is given as:

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(A + B)

Going by the illustration in the question, the perimeter is

==> 2(32 + 44) = 152 cm.

However, we a given the mean perimeter of the frame which are:

32 and 44. We can either choose to say; each sides is (32 by 32) and (44 by 44). Or we consider it in mean/average term as given: (32 by 44).

Case 1: To obtain the mean perimeter of the frame using the first scenario, we say:

Mean perimeter = (32+32+44+44)/4 = 38 cm.

Case 2: We can simply say:

Mean perimeter = (32 + 44)/2 = 38 cm.

Graphically: Assuming that the frame is given below

32 cm

---------------------------------

| |

44 cm| | 44 cm

| |

----------------------------------

32 cm

The mean of upper frame/bars = 32 cm

The mean of side frame/bars = 44 cm

Hence, the mean of the perimeter = (32 + 44)/2 = 38 cm

OR,

we take the sum of all the sides (32 + 44 + 32 + 44) and divide by total number of sides (4). That is;

The mean of the perimeter = (32 + 44 + 32 + 44)/4 = 38 cm

12n^3 + 16n^3 can someone please help me with this?

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

$4n^{3} (3n^{2} + 4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the problem is asking you to factor out the formula, it can be done easily by finding a common number with the two givens.

4 goes into both 12 and 16 evenly, so we will use this to factor. But that's not all, we have the n-variable to worry about.

Look at the n-variable exponents in the problem, take the highest power that can go be subtracted from both and use that. We have a $n^{5}$ and $n^{3}$ . Since 5 can't go into 3, we must use 3 to factor.

Our factoring variable will therefore be $4n^{3}$ . Now, use this to simply divide and get the answer:

$( 12n^{5} + 16n^{3} ) / 4n^{3} = 4n^{3}(3n^{2} + 4)$

So how did we get this? For the whole numbers, we have to divide: (12/4, 16/4). Next, we have to minus the exponents since we are dividing.

When dividing the 12 and 4, minus the $n^{5}$ and $n^{3}$ to get $n^{2}$ . Get rid of the $n^{3}$ term for the 16 and leave the 4. And there's your answer!
