Answer: 1/2, 1/2, 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the fraction that the hour hand turns of a clockwise revolution, we have to find how long it is going then divide by 12

Ex. a) 11 - 5 = 6, 6/12 = 1/2 so the hour hand turns by 1/2 of a clockwise revolution

b) 8 - 2 = 6, 6/12 = 1/2 so the hour hand turns by 1/2 of a clockwise revolution

c) For this, we have to convert 1 into 13 as 1 - 10 is a negative number

13 - 10 = 3, 3/12 = 1/4 so the hour hand turns by 1/4 of a clockwise revolution

The answers are :

a) 1/2

b) 1/2

c) 1/4

To find the fraction of a clockwise revolution, take the ratio between hours covered and hours covered in one revolution.

a)

  • Hours covered between 5 and 11 ⇒ 11 - 5 = 6
  • Hours covered in 1 revolution ⇒ 12
  • 6/12 = 1/2

b)

  • Hours covered between 2 and 8 ⇒ 8 - 2 = 6
  • Hours covered in 1 revolution ⇒ 12
  • 6/12 = 1/2

c)

  • Hours covered between 10 and 1 ⇒ 13 - 10 = 3 (∴ <u>12 + 1 = 13)</u>
  • Hours covered in 1 revolution ⇒ 12
  • 3/12 = 1/4

dangina [55]

Answer:

19,200 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area = 1.2 * 1.6 = 1.92 m^2.

There are 100 cm to 1 meter,  so 1 square meter = 100^2 = 10,000 cm^2.

Therefore 1.92 m^2 = 10,000 * 1.92 =  19,200 cm^2.

Select the true statement plzzzz need help ASAPPPPP
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Correct choice is B

Step-by-step explanation:

All three functions are increasing when x is increasing. You can find values of each function when x is "enough large". For example, at x=100,

1. linear function: y=10\cdot 100=1,000.

2. exponential function: y=5^{100}\approx 0.8\cdot 10^{70}.

3. quadratic function: y=4\cdot 100^2+5\cdot 100=40,500.

As you can see,  when x approaches positive infinity, the exponential function will exceed both the linear and the quadratic functions.

Also you can use graphical method to get from the attached diagrams result. When x approaches positive infinity, the exponential function will exceed both the linear and the quadratic functions.

Correct choice is B.
