A fraction is bigger or smaller depending on the numerator and denominator.

For example, 1/2 is larger than 1/4 because a half is larger than a quarter. This means that the larger the number underneath, the smaller the number.

But, this can change if the numerator (the number on top) is different than one.

For example, 3/4 is greater than 1/2 because three quarters is more than a half. (two quarters is equal to a half)

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

A graphing calculator can show you a graph of each expression, which you can compare to the offered choices.

_____

You can make use of the relations ...

... sin(a)+sin(b) = 2sin((a+b)/2)cos((a-b)/2)

... cos(a)+cos(b) = 2cos((a+b)/2)cos((a-b)/2)

... cos(a)-cos(b) = -2sin((a+b)/2)sin((a-b)/2)

Then you have ...

$\dfrac{\cos{2x}-\cos{4x}}{\sin{2x}+\sin{4x}}=\dfrac{2\sin{3x}\sin{x}}{2\sin{3x}\cos{x}}=\dfrac{\sin{x}}{\cos{x}}=\tan{x}$

and ...

$\dfrac{\cos{2x}+\cos{4x}}{\sin{2x}-\sin{4x}}=\dfrac{2\cos{3x}\cos{x}}{-2\cos{3x}\sin{x}}=\dfrac{-\cos{x}}{\sin{x}}=-\cot{x}$

A grandsons age in years is equal to his grandfather's age in years. The difference of the grandsons age in years and the grandf

The age of the grandson is 7 years and the grandfather is 84 years if the grandson's age in months is equal to the age of grandpa in years and the difference in age is 77.

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

Let's suppose the age of the grandsons is x years and

age of the grandfather's age is y years

Here some data are misprinted, so we are assuming the grandson's age in months is equal to the age of grandpa in years and the difference in age is 77.

Then according to the problem:

12x = y (as in 1 year, there are 12 months)

y -x = 77 (as difference in age is 77)

After solving both equations, we get:

x = 7 years and y = 84 years

Thus, the age of the grandson is 7 years and the grandfather is 84 years if the grandson's age in months is equal to the age of grandpa in years and the difference in age is 77.

Read this E[2X^2 â€" Y].

djyliett [7]

Looks like a badly encoded/decoded symbol. It's supposed to be a minus sign, so you're asked to find the expectation of 2X ² - Y.

If you don't know how X or Y are distributed, but you know E[X ²] and E[Y], then it's as simple as distributing the expectation over the sum:

E[2X ² - Y] = 2 E[X ²] - E[Y]

Or, if you're given the expectation and variance of X, you have

Var[X] = E[X ²] - E[X]²

→ E[2X ² - Y] = 2 (Var[X] + E[X]²) - E[Y]

Otherwise, you may be given the density function, or joint density, in which case you can determine the expectations by computing an integral or sum.
