What is 2 1/8 take away 1/2​

Mathematics
1 answer:
goblinko [34]3 years ago
5 0

The equation is 2\frac{1}{8} - \frac{1}{2} .

1/2 is equivalent to 4/8, and 2 1/8 is equal to 17/8. (two full sets of 8 + 1 = 8 + 8 + 1, or 17)

The new equation is \frac{17}{8} -\frac{4}{8} . Subtract the numerators.

17 - 4 = 13 or 13/8

The improper fraction \frac{13}{8} simplifies to 1\frac{5}{8} .

<h2>Answer:</h2>

1\frac{5}{8}

Hope this helps :)

Use the Remainder Theorem to find the remainder for (2x^3-3x^2+6)/(x-1) and state whether or not the binomial is a factor of the
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Remainder= 5, and the binomial (x-1) is not a factor of the given polynomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial is (2x^3-3x^2+6) , we have to divide this with a binomial [tex}(x-1)[/tex] using remainder theorem.

Remainder theorem says if (x-a) is a factor then remiander would be f(a)

Therefore for (x-1), \ {we find}\  f(1)}

f(1)=(2\times 1^3-3\times1^2+6)\\1^3 =1\\1^2=1\\Substituting \ this \ above\\f(1)= (2-3+6)=5

Thus the remainder is 5 and since it is not 0 , so the binomial (x-1) is not a factor of the given polynomial.

A rectangular box has a square base with an edge length of x cm and a height of h cm. The volume of the box is given by V = x^2h
tiny-mole [99]
Option 4 is correct i.e. <span>The volume of the box is increasing at a rate of 192 cm^3/min.

</span>Given : Volume of the rectangular box  = x²h 
where x is edge and h is height.
The edge and the height are varying with time, therefore, we write,x = x(t)
h = h(t)
dh/dt = -3 and we shall calculate when x = 4, dx/dt = 2 and when h=15 
V = x²h dV/dt = (2x × dx/dt × h) + (x² × dh/dt) dV/dt = 2×4×2×15 + (4)^2 ×(-3) dV/dt = 240 - 48
dV/dt = 192 
Because dV/dt is positive, hence the volume is increasing
