Answer:

The common ratio in the sequence is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

?, 12, ?, 4/3

12 * 1/9 = 4/3

The 1/9 is divided across two spaces.

1/9 = x²

x = 1/3

12 * <u>1/3</u> = 4

4 * <u>1/3</u> = 4/3

The area of a rectangle is expressed as x4 - 9y2. What are the possible dimensions of the rectangle?
AnnyKZ [126]

This is a stupid question.  The teacher who asked this needs to go back to school.

A = x⁴ - 9y²

That's going to be a number.  As long as it's positive we can choose any length for our rectangle L and we can compute the width by W=A/L.   So the correct answer is the dimensions are L by  (x⁴ - 9y²)/L.

They don't want the correct answer.  They want you to factor this expression.  We'll do it, but don't believe for a second this factoring somehow constrains the possible dimensions of some rectangle.

We use the difference of two squares, a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b)

A = x⁴ - 9y² = (x²)² - (3y)² = (x²+3y)(x²-3y)

Answer: x²+3y  by  x²-3y

ira has 128 stamps in his stamp album he has the same number of stamps on each of the 8 pages how many stamps are on each page
den301095 [7]
There are several important information's already given in the question. Based on those given information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Number of stamps that Ira has in his stamp album = 128
Number of pages that the stamp album has = 8
Then
Number of stamps in each page of the stamp album = 128/8
                                                                                     = 16
So 16 stamps are there on each page of the stamp album. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. You can always use this method for solving similar type of problems in future without requiring any additional help.
