The area of a plot of land is 2496 square meters. A small part of the land is fenced. The ratio of the area of the plot of land

AfilCa [17]

My late response (haha): First, you would write a proportion.

Step 1: 2496 over 48 = x over 31
(x represents the area of the land that is not fenced).

Step 2: Cross multiply
2496 times 31 and x times 48

Step 3: Calculate
77376 = 48x

Step 4: Divide both sides by 48
77376/48 = 1612
48x/48 = x

Step 5: Write it as a sentence
The area of the land that is not fenced is 1612 squared meters.

Hope that helped! Good luck! :]

When using the vertical line test, if the vertical line hits the line in more than 1 place it is considered a function.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

false

Step-by-step explanation:

If the vertical line hits more than 1 point it is not a function because the x value cannot repeat in order for it to be a function

2x^2+5x+3/x^2-3x-4 divided by 4x^2+2x-6/x^2-8x+16

Masja [62]

Answer: $\frac{x-4}{2x-2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2x^2+5x+3}{x^2-3x-4}$ divided by $\frac{4x^2+2x-6}{x^2-8x+16}$ is the same thing as multiplying $\frac{2x^2+5x+3}{x^2-3x-4}$ by $\frac{x^2-8x+16}{4x^2+2x-6}$ .

The equation we get is:

$\frac{2x^2+5x+3}{x^2-3x-4}*\frac{x^2-8x+16}{4x^2+2x-6}$

With this equation, we can factor each equation:

$\frac{(x+1)(2x+3)}{(x+1)(x-4)} *\frac{(x-4)(x-4)}{2(x-1)(2x+3)}$

We can cancel out like terms since they would be dividing each other:

$\frac{x-4}{2x-2}$

2/3 is what percent of 1/4?

saveliy_v [14]

So if we take 1/4 to be the 100%, what is 2/3 in percentage off of it then?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{1}{4}&100\\\\
\frac{2}{3}&p
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{2}{3}}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies \cfrac{1}{4}\cdot \cfrac{3}{2}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies \cfrac{3}{8}=\cfrac{100}{p}
\\\\\\
p=\cfrac{8\cdot 100}{3}\implies p=\cfrac{800}{3}\implies p=266\frac{2}{3}\implies p\approx 266.\overline{66}$

yes, is a large value, because 2/3 is indeed larger than 1/4, more than twice as large.
