5/12 is larger than 1/10, because 5/12 is closer to 1/2 than 1/10

Convert 22 to a numeral in base 2.

musickatia [10]

The answer is 10110

===============================================

Explanation:

Divide 22 over 2. Use long division to find the quotient and remainder
22/2 = 11 remainder 0 <<--- this remainder will be used later. Call it A, so A = 0

Now repeat for the value 11, which was the quotient above
11/2 = 5 remainder 1 <<--- this remainder will be used later. Call it B, so B = 1

Repeat again for the quotient we just got
5/2 = 2 remainder 1 <<--- this remainder will be used later. Call it C, so C = 1

Repeat again
2/2 = 1 remainder 0 <<--- this remainder will be used later. Call it D, so D = 0

Repeat again
1/2 = 0 remainder 1 <<--- this remainder will be used later. Call it E, so E = 1

The last quotient above is 0, so we stop here. If we tried to keep going, then we'd get nothing but 0 remainders forever.

The remainders we got above were:
A = 0
B = 1
C = 1
D = 0
E = 1

The idea is to read the remainders in reverse order in which we found. So we start with E and work back to A
E = 1
D = 0
C = 1
B = 1
A = 0

So 22 base 10 = 10110 base 2

How to 2 ft 5 in plus 9 in

Elina [12.6K]

1 ft equals 12 in. So 2ft equals 24 in. 24 in plus 5 in equals 29 in, and 29 in plus 9 in equals 38 in. 38/12 equals 3 ft 2 in.

Is (2, 2) a solution of y < 4x - 6?<br> Choose 1 answer<br> yes or no

zalisa [80]

No, (2,2) is not solution of y < 4x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve above linear problem, we use standard method of Back- Substitution.

First of all, A point (2,2) only becomes solution of equation, if it satisfies equation $y < 4x - 6$ .

Here, the $y < 4x - 6$ seems to be like a linear equation.

In this Equation, using Back- Substitution method,

Point (2,2) : first digit 2 corresponds to x- coordinate and second digit 2 corresponds to y-coordinate.

$y < 4x - 6.....(1) \\\ x= 2 .....(2) \\\ y= 2 .....(3)$

By putting value of x and y in equation (1),

Equation becomes,

$2 < 4 \times 2 - 6$

$2 < 8 - 6$

$2 < 2$ .... not true mathematically.

Finally, the result came is not true. Therefore, (2,2) is not solution for equation

$y < 4x - 6$

Helppppppppppppppp lol

Sladkaya [172]

The given expression is:
(x/2) + 5

Let's look at each terms separately:
x/2 means that you you're getting half the value of a number
+5 means that you are adding 5
Combining both, you can conclude that you are adding 5 to half a certain given number.

Comparing this with the choices, the correct choice would be:
C. five more than half a number.
