The four?

Of course there are an infinite number of rationals between any two different real numbers, as well as an even bigger infinite number of irrationals.

The average will be between the numbers:

\frac 1 2 (\frac 2 5 + \frac 5 6) = \dfrac{37}{60}

That's a lot of work to get a number in between.  We can just see

\frac 1 2
is between the two numbers.

The mediant, or freshman addition, will always be in between:

\dfrac{2 + 5}{5 + 6} = \dfrac{7}{11}

2/5=.4 and 5/6 is about .83, so

.6 = \frac{6}{10}

is in between as is .7, .41, .530940394 and as many rationals as we care to generate.

To get irrationals we could just add a teeny irrational to the ones we just generated, like \frac{6}{10} + \frac{\pi}{100}

We could just change that denominator a bit and get as many as we like.

But let's get some square roots.  The geometric mean will be between

\sqrt{ \dfrac 2 5 \cdot \dfrac 5 6 } = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}


That's the tangent from one of trig's biggest cliches, but I digress.  It's in between.

While we're on trig cliches, 

\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}

is in between as well.

Keeping with the trig theme, also in between are

\dfrac{\pi} 6

and

\dfrac{\pi}{4}


the angles associated with the some of the above trig function values.

We could obviously go on as long as we cared to.

Graham sold six magazines less than double what Adriannne sold, a. Which of the following expressions represents Graham’s sales
Eva8 [605]

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the fourth option or letter D. The expression that represents Graham's sales is 2a − 6. Twice the sales of Adrianne, deducted by 6 should be Graham's sales.

Hope this helps!

True Or False?

Electromagnets are devices that create a magnetic field through the application of electricity. Strong electromagnets are used to lift, move and drop heavy objects, such as vehicles. Electromagnets have advantages over permanent magnets. When the current is switched off, the electromagnet will lose its magnetism. The car will fall back to earth and we need that when we move cars in a junkyard. With a regular ( permanent ) magnet it would be much harder to do.
Answer: A. True

The formula that describes an object's motion is given by S=ut+1/2at^2 , where S is the distance traveled, u is the initial velo
RSB [31]
S = ut + (1/2)a(t²)                            Subtract ut from both sides
(1/2)a(t²) = S - ut                            Multiply both sides by 2
a(t²) = 2s - 2ut                                Divide both sides by t²
a= 2s/t² - 2u/t

a= (2S - 2ut)/t²

Answer is C) but there should be parentheses around the term (2S-2ut)
