The answer would be
3 5/12, because you would make 3 2/3 into 3 8/12 for the greatest common factor and make 1/4 into 3/12 when you subtract 3/12 - 3 8/12 you get 3 5/12.

The circumference of Circle K is $\pi$ . The circumference of Circle L is $4\pi$ . Two circles, one labeled "Circle K" and the o

timurjin [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the circumference of Circle K = π

circumference of Circle L = 4π

Ratio of their circumferences = Ck/Cl

Ratio of their circumferences = π/4π

Ratio of their circumferences = 1/4 = 1:4

For their radii

C = 2πr

for circle k with circumference π

π = 2πrk

1 = 2rk

rk = 1/2

for circle l with circumference 4π

4π = 2πr

4 = 2r

r = 4/2

rl = 2

ratio

rk/rl = 1/2/2

rk/rl = 1/4 = 1:4

for the areas

Area of a circle = πr²

for circle k

Ak = π(1/2)²

Ak = π(1/4)

Ak = π/4

for circle l

Al = π(2)²

Al = 4π

Ratio of their areas

Ak/Al = π/4/(4π)

Ak/Al = π/16π

Ak/Al = 1/16 = 1:16

Which of the following are examples of a geometric sequence? Select any and all that apply: may be more than one correct answer.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

( 1 , -2 , 4 , -8 , 16 , ... )

( 9 , 3 , 1 , 1/3 , 1/9 , ... )

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence has a common ratio in consecutive terms,

In sequence,

$1, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{6},\frac{1}{24},\frac{1}{120}.....$

$\frac{1/2}{1}\neq \frac{1/6}{1/2}\neq \frac{1/24}{1/6}\neq \frac{1/120}{1/24}...$

i.e.

$1, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{6},\frac{1}{24},\frac{1}{120}.....$ is not a Geometric sequence,

1 , -2 , 3 , -4 , 5 , ...

$\frac{-2}{1}\neq \frac{3}{-2}\neq \frac{-4}{3}\neq \frac{5}{-4}...$

i.e. 1 , -2 , 3 , -4 , 5 , ... is not a Geometric sequence,

In sequence,

1 , -2 , 4 , -8 , 16 , ...

$\frac{-2}{1}=\frac{4}{-2}= \frac{-8}{4}= \frac{16}{-8}...$

i.e. 1 , -2 , 4 , -8 , 16 , .... is a Geometric sequence,

In sequence,

0 , 1 , 0 , -1 , 0 , .....

$\frac{1}{0}\neq \frac{0}{1}\neq \frac{-1}{0}\neq \frac{0}{-1}...$

i.e. 0 , 1 , 0 , -1 , 0 , .....is not a Geometric sequence,

In sequence,

9 , 3 , 1 , 1/3 , 1/9 , ...

$\frac{3}{9}=\frac{1}{3}= \frac{1/3}{1}= \frac{1/9}{1/3}...$

i.e. 9 , 3 , 1 , 1/3 , 1/9 , ... is a Geometric sequence,

In sequence,

1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , ...

$\frac{3}{1}\neq \frac{5}{3}\neq \frac{7}{5}\neq \frac{9}{7}...$

i.e. 1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , ... is not a Geometric sequence

X + y = 3, 4y = -4x - 4<br> System of Equations

alexdok [17]

Answer:

no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given this system of equations:

x+y=3

4y=-4x-4

and we need to solve it (find the point where the lines intersect, as these are linear equations)

let's solve this system by substitution, where we will set one variable equal to an expression containing the other variable, substitute that expression to solve for the variable the expression contains, and then use the value of the solved variable to find the value of the first variable

we'll use the second equation (4y=-4x-4), as there is already only one variable on one side of the equation. Every number is multiplied by 4, so we'll divide both sides by 4

y=-x-1

now we have y set as an expression containing x

substitute -x-1 as y in x+y=3 to solve for x

x+-x-1=3

combine like terms

-1=3

This statement is untrue, meaning that the lines x+y=3 and 4y=-4x-4 won't intersect.

Therefore the answer is no solutions

Hope this helps! :)

The graph below shows the two equations graphed; they are parallel, which means they will never intersect. If they don't intersect, there's no common solution
