A chess player played 20 games total. If he won 2 of the games, what is the ratio of games he lost to games he won?

1 answer:

4 0

So, we have useful information to answer this question. We know that he played 20 games and he won 2 games. To find the ratio of the games lost, we have to subtract the number of games played and the number of games won.
20-2=18
So now we can find the ratio of games won and games lost
The answer is 18:2, 18 to 2, or 18/2.
You can also simplify the ratio to 9:1
So the final answer is 9:1

Hope this helped

Here is a circle touching a square.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer: 9πcm²

Step-by-step explanation: area of the square= 36cm²

Therefore, the area of one side= √area = √36 = 6cms

Since the circle is touching the sides of the square, the side of the square = the diameter of the circle

Therefore the radius of the circle= side/2 = 3cm

The formula for the ares of the circle is πr²

π*3*3 = 9πcm²

Answer:

The correct option is option (3) 4 ÷ 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression in terms of m and n is:

$F(m,n)=[\frac{2m^{-1}n^{5}}{3m^{0}n^{4}}]^{2}$

Exponent rule of division:

$a^{x}\div a^{y}=a^{x-y}$

Compute the value of the expression for m = -5 and n = 3 as follows:

$F(m,n)=[\frac{2m^{-1}n^{5}}{3m^{0}n^{4}}]^{2}$

$F(-5,3)=[\frac{2\csdot (-5)^{-1}\cdot (3)^{5}}{3\cdot (-5)^{0}\cdot (3)^{4}}]^{2}$

$=\{\frac{2}{3}\times [(-5)^{-1-0}\times (3)^{5-4}}]\}^{2}\\\\=\{\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{-1}{5}\times 3\}^{2}\\\\=\{-\frac{2}{5}\}^{2}\\\\=\frac{4}{25}$
